AEG sells L5R

Info here.

So, remind me again why they continue to not budge on selling 7th Sea to someone who'd actually DO something with the property?

Well I like what FFG did with Star Wars (though I dislike how many books it took for them to do it). And I really like the dice mechanic (despite it taking some time to get used to it).

This popped up in my feed yesterday. I think cautious optimism was the general tone. I'm not a fan of L5R (bad gaming experience left a bad taste in my mouth), but those who are seem to be willing to give it a chance.

I'm cautiously optimistic as well, though part of me is just hoping for a return to the original L5R timeline.

They're not selling 7th Sea, because noone is willing to pay that much for it.
My personal 2nd ed. 7th Sea can be found here: http://theah.sanctum.dk/#home be forewarned might be too simulationist for the weak of heart.

Back when I was into fantasy, I wrote for a couple of L5R Books (EotE and Great Clans), wonder if I can leverage that with FFG to get something done with 7th Sea?

I'm going to hope not. Last thing I care to see is a specialized dice rpg.

I am also done with chasing editions on games.

For whatever it's worth, AEG seems to have removed the 7th Sea forums and have yet to respond to my concerns about it.

Well, this was the link that was sent to me by the Powers that Be -- that answered pretty much squat, imo. :roll:

Not encouraging...hope folks take Mark up on his invite!
