Elthos RPG News - Grand Launch Dec 21

Elthos RPG News

I have finally, after quite a long time of jostling many things into place (in particular the Mythos Machine) gone ahead and requested my two introductory Elthos RPG Rules Books to be published on DriveThruRPG... Chris Tang has kindly gotten back to me and said they look good to go. The release date is scheduled for Dec 21st 2018, just in time for Christmas.

The two books are: The Elthos RPG Core Rules Book, 80 pages, and the Elthos RPG Essential Rules Book, 44 pages. The book prices are $16 and $12 respectively, with a 25% introductory discount, so $12 and $8 respectively. The money will go towards the continued development of the Elthos Project, and in particular for enhancements to the Mythos Machine.

The Elthos RPG Rules are designed to help Gamemasters to build their own Worlds in any way they wish. They provide an RPG rules framework for you to work within in order to help keep things in your World consistent. At the same time, the rules avoid putting constraints on your creative freedom. The framework helps by providing a solid yet simple mechanical structure, but what you build is totally up to you. It presents examples to get you started, and then lets you get on with the creative work, unimpeded by a pre-established setting or story line. If you’re an imaginative person who enjoys creating your own RPG Worlds, Elthos was built for you.

I'm going to be doing final testing of all Mythos Machine systems in preparation for the Grand Launch. Wish me luck! And please thank my kind hearted Beta Testers as well. They've been doing a great job helping me to test and improve things all along the way. So here's a shout out to all the Beta Testers ... Thank you!!

And now back to testing, tweaking and polishing!
