Thanks for the link hcobb! I'm looking forward to the Bestiary books - those should be useful. And I always enjoy the Hexagrams.

This is an incredible lineup! Really inspiring range of materials. I suppose the Beastiaries, Thorz's stomping grounds and Book of Unlife have to look like the high points because they are big and new (and I've seen the 'beta' of TBoU and so know it is excellent). But everything sounds amazing.

It looks like 2020 will be a bit of a 'pivot' from the last year or so, when the weight of published materials was more firmly centered on physical materials used in play at the table (mats, MH tiles, counters, cards). That is very sensible, as our stock of those materials is getting quite solid. That said, I suspect you'll eventually circle back to fill in gaps, such as cards for humanoid types not yet covered, some sort of product that acts like the MH tiles but is for exterior spaces or buildings, encounter cards for dungeons (along the lines of those we have for outdoor encounters); perhaps something analogous to the random dungeon 6 sided cards, but for exterior spaces. Maybe you can thing of other things.

The only printed book I can think of that you haven't pursued would be a big, meaty spell book.

A book on demons analogous to TBoU would be welcome!

Thank you for not going down the route of pumping out a massive number of talents and other PC 'grade inflation' - that sort of thing is at the root of most games' decline into munchkinism and over complexity.

Anyway, you are doing an amazing job!

I am really looking forward to these new releases! When I played TFT "back in the day" the solo adventures were always fun, but I always wanted resource books such as play settings and bestiaries. So glad to see these will be coming out!
