Summer
The One Ring Revised Core Manual – As stocks of the current box set are running low, we’re taking the opportunity to revise and reprint The One Ring Roleplaying Game in a single volume, clarifying some rules and adding in some new art by John Howe. For those of you who own the existing set, don’t worry, we’ll make any revisions and clarifications available as a separate PDF, but we’re confident that you’ll want to add this volume to your collection all the same.
Rivendell – Our next major setting supplement will take your adventures west across the Misty Mountains to the Last Homely House. This supplement expands play into eastern Eriador, covering not only Rivendell itself, but Angmar, Fornost, Mount Gram, Tharbad and everywhere in between. There are also rules for Magical Treasure, Rangers of the North, Elves of Rivendell, the Eye of Sauron and loads more besides.
Autumn
Ruins of the North – To accompany Rivendell, Ruins of the North is an adventure anthology that takes your company from Wilderland and into Eriador, hunting Trolls, Barrow-wights and malignant spirits, and exploring the ruins of Fornost, Angmar and into the Barrow-downs. There’s some great stuff in here, including some well-loved characters from Bilbo Baggins and Glorfindel to Tom Bombadil himself…
The Adventurer’s Companion – Not long after the release of the new core manual comes the first supplement aimed squarely at players. Including a whole wealth of advice, ideas and background for making your own hero and company, as well as new Heroic Cultures including Bree-folk, Riders of Rohan, Dwarves of the Blue Mountain, the Elves of Lorien and Men of Gondor, a new Calling in the form of the Captain, and expanded rules for generational play.
Winter
Horse-lords of Rohan – our second setting supplement takes us south along the Anduin and into the land of the Rohirrim, where we explore not only the culture and lands of the Riders of Rohan, but also their rivals the Dunlendings. We’ll also venture into the depths of Fangorn Forest and into Isengard itself.

Alright now that the elves have gone to bed time to get a Dwarven review of the upcoming things I will just go down the list and if anyone objects to Uncle Veig's color commentary know that Uncle Veig does not care, now with the ground rules out of the way let us begin, just have to find the scroll, no that is not it,not that either, ah here is the scroll I was looking for, shall we get started.
Item #1:We all knew a second printing was going to happen, I just want to know if we can have some clarification of some things such as a "safe" place to rest.
Item #2:Ah Rivendell the nice elves also Rangers nice to see those cultures being added, as for magical items I am looking to getting my hands on some maybe a new helmet for me hmmm,also it seems I had better get to it in clearing some ruins out in Eriador.
Item #3:An item Uncle Veig has no interest in,but probably has some good stuff, I would get it if stats for a dragon were included.
Item #4:Uncle Veig has lots to say about this one for starters another Dwarvish culture will be added so perhaps I should visit my cousins in the west some more,as for the Bree-folks culture Uncle Veig wants to know if that is including the Bree-Hobbits as well as the Bree-Men.Riders of Rohan could be intresting, Men of Gondor as well Lorien Elves(more elves really?Uncle Veig thought these elves would be in the forthcoming Moria book.).Ahh a new calling Captain, now we get to it I wonder is that open to anyone, not for myself of course, I am quite happy with my books, ink and my raven friend Croac.More rules for generational play is always good asthat means I might get to retire someday.
Item #5:Looks interesting but again not my cup of mead, so will pass on it probably.
Alright so Uncle Veig has one question when does the Moria sourcebook come out gents, I see a lovely spot after the Rohan book,please gents Uncle Veig would pay enough silver and gold to last the rest of a middle aged hobbits life, all I want is the chance to go to Moria, I'll go even if it is more then likely I will die there.Alright that seems to be enough begging back to work.
((OOC:Thought to do my comments to the discussion in the form of one of my characters breaking the fourth wall.))
