The Times, They Are A-Changing!

Under this arrangement, RedBrick Limited retains full creative control of writing, design, editing, and layout. Mongoose Publishing will handle printing, marketing, sales, and distribution.

The first RedBrick Limited products to be released under the Flaming Cobra imprint will be available in game stores worldwide from July 2009, starting with Earthdawn Third Edition, before moving into the product release schedules for our other game lines.

After five years honing its skills as a game publisher on the Earthdawn Classic and Fading Suns Second Edition game lines, and being among the forefront of RPG publishers embracing the digital and print-on-demand publishing models, RedBrick Limited are excited to be working with Mongoose Publishing and taking the next step toward bringing our games to a wider audience.

RedBrick at the RPC 2009 (Apr 3-5)

RedBrick will be attending the Role Play Convention 2009. The RPC is a germany's largest dedicated role-playing convention and takes place from April 3rd to 5th 2009, at Messe Köln in Germany. If you are attending, make sure to visit our booth in the Pen&Paper Area, where you can meet our staff and chat about our books, projects, and games!

Because it is probably the last time we will have our own booth at a convention like this, you'll be able to purchase the products we have available there at special prices--considerably less than you would pay at Lulu right now. It's likely the last chance to grab these from us directly!

See you in April!



Cooperation with Prometheus Games

In cooperation with our RedBrick Germany branch, Prometheus Games is going to publish and distribute our german titles. This cooperation will replace the existing distribution channel via Lulu.com and make those titles available in german game stores. The first releases will be Western City and Spielleiten. Both titles will be available at the Role Play Convention 2009 in Cologne.

Western City by Jörg Dünne is a gamemasterless roleplaying game in which the players create a western and fill it with life. The development of the story is guided by mechanisms distributing each player's influence evenly. Western City will be part of the Pocket-RPG-Line, which already produced Ratten! and the Ratten!!-Compendium.

Spielleiten by Dominic Wäsch is a universal handbook for gamemasters. The book contains countless tips and guidelines to optimize your game sessions and how to improvise, suitable for both beginners and veterans. Spielleiten shows how even simple methods can be used to gamemaster effectively.

Prometheus Games GbR is located in Duisburg, Germany. They released the first Edition of the Steam-Fantasy Roleplaying Game Elyrion in 2007, and were able to expand their portfolio with several famous products, such as licenses for the Scion™, Savage Worlds™ and Ratten! game lines. The company website is http://www.prometheusgames.de.

RedBrick Germany is the german branch of RedBrick Limited from Auckland, New Zealand. RedBrick publishes the famous Earthdawn®, Fading Suns™, and Blue Planet™ game lines under license from FASA Corporation, Holistic Design, and Biohazard Games. The company website is http://www.redbrick.co.nz.



Kratas: City of Thieves Available Now!

Located in the center of Barsaive, the city of Kratas serves as a crossroads of information and stolen goods. Despite its location near almost all major trade routes, few honest merchants pass through the city, for Kratas is ruled and run by thieves. Its people are the clever and desperate, the illegally wealthy and the horribly destitute of our province.

Kratas: City of Thieves offers gamemasters and players an in-depth look at Barsaive’s most disreputable city. This book provides detailed descriptions of Kratas, its gangs, and the characters who call this city home, along with new and original content for adventures in the world of Earthdawn.

Available now! Click here for more information!





New Pro-Indie Book Available Now!

The german book Spielleiten by Dominic Wäsch is available now just in time for the Spiel'08. The book covers the art of gamemastering, continuing the topic from the point where most rulebooks stop. This entertaining guide is intended for both newbie and experienced gamemasters alike.
