Hey Jamie, thanks so much for the report.

Aaaaahhhh... "sold out"... I'm taking those words as a pretty positive response to the book...

Saw your post on the 'Versal board and thought I'd add the link to the picture of you, Renae and Margaret Weis at the booth. Oh yeah, and that book thing that I still need a clearer picture of...

Jamie thanks for helping me understand the system. Could you tell us what support materials are in the pipeline for the game?

Hey there! Happy to help.

On deck is the Serenity Game Master's Screen, which will also include a booklet of supplemental game information. This product should be out later in the fall.

By year's end, we will also have a 96-page adventure to help launch (or continue!) a new campaign. It is designed to work with both the Serenity crew and existing characters.

We hope that the movie and game will be successful enough to continue, and plan to propose new products to Universal for 2006.

Jamie,

Sweet! I'm gonna definately get that adventure. Whaddya gonna call it?

Also, when exactly should we look for the Core Rulebook in our local game stores?

-------------------------------------------
May have been on the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I'm new to posting here, but just wanted to report that I love the new RPG that you and your people put out! I'm switching my Firefly campaign to the Serenity system ASAP, and my group's happy to hear about it. I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the book, from the artwork, to the stories, to the game mechanics.

All RPG's based on movies or fantasies have their inconsistencies as we move from the real to the fantasy, but I was delighted to see that your RPG strives to keep as much in believable context as possible. It also does something which I'm a big fan of, which is to leave a lot of room for creative GM's to explore and create.

My friend and I were elated when you moved to garner more tables so that you were able to run more demos of your system. The GM I ran with, (Floyd), was phenomenal. He clearly enjoyed what he was doing, and I must admit that I enjoyed the chance to play Mal. The opportunity to role-play Mal when my friend Botched his roll as Jane to shoot Patience's hired hand in the head, and ended up shooting Patience in the head was hilarious. I'm glad to get the opportunity to thank you for taking the extra steps so that we had the opportunity to learn the system 1st hand.

Time to cut this ramble off. I'll be interested in additional products, as I'm happy with what I've seen so far. And if there's a quick guide available before my local convention, I'd love the opportunity to run a demo of it.

Thanks, once again.

P.S. Keep up the good work, Hour!

-Jaime

I'm really pleased that you were able to get into a game, and even more glad that you had a good time. Any others out there who were able to get into the demos? Share your stories!

Jamie,
I'm curious to know how we might be able to volunteer for demos in 2006?
