Default Does the licence cover GearKrieg as well?

My interests run more along the Pulp lines - so to me the spin-off of GearKrieg (set in the era around WW II in the GearKrieg alternate universe, I was told) was more exciting.

So my question is are we going to see GearKrieg RPG support as well as Heavy Gear RPG?

when asked about Jovian Chronicles and Tribe 8. I think it's safe to assume that Gear Kreig falls under that as well. But, I could be wrong.

We have licensed Heavy Gear, nothing more.

We'll look at other properties in the future.

DP9 is mainly focusing on HG stuff. Jovian Chronicles will be getting the Blitz! treatment for the tactical and if it does well I think will be the next to go for RPG, if I understand properly.

I Love the GK universe and have been bugging Robert to allow me to, shall we say, extrapolate it. That's all I'm going to say on the concept, but since they aren't ready yet, it allows me to keep expanding on the concept and adding more and more details to the world, if I get the chance to make it.

There is still an active GK forum at dp9.com with some of the physical books available through their online store and all books are available through drivethrurpg as pdf's.

Also, to support this forum's host I suggest checking out their WWII supplements for GURPS. I picked some up as research, and they are amazingly detailed with non-biased information about both sides of the war, and really shows the human side of the war instead of "we the Good Guys against them the Bad Guys"

Questions? Answers? Lies I can tell you?

I will kill any man who stands in my way of me doing a new GK game. ;) GK is actually my favourite DP9 tac game and is second to HG for my RPG love, and that's only because the focus wandered a bit.

I would like to see Jovian Chronicles, Gear Krieg, and Core Command all get updated, fixed, and put back into print. Tribe 8, not so much (the only DP9 game I never really got into), but I know it has some very dedicated fans out there, waiting for it to return.

I will work with others, but I've been wanting to do GK right since about midway through 1e... And if you want to submit stuff to Aurora, go for it. we need more GK love there (and I'm a bit busy...although I should do up some Morderprimas figs one day)
