No kidding! I was expecting
Oaths of the Riddermark or
The Adventurer's Companion, but this is equally awesome!

I think it's to keep us well-conditioned to check the website.

True, and we
could be kidding a third announcement tomorrow, though Jon said that wasn't guaranteed.

Well, it's really an amazing week. I guess they've actually found a way to speed up production!
This is the supplement that close the circle on the Wildarland/The Hobbit part of the game. I wasn't expecting it now, but I can't say it was totally unexpected. They scattered some pieces here and there, along the way.
Is this going to be the Year of the Ring?

I hope a lot of what we worked on in the Dale fan supplement can still be used with the information in this. If not then I may have to bring out another version that adds to, rather than contradicts, the official content!

As much I hoped for The Adventurer's Companion to be the next big announcement, as much I'm thrilled with this one.
Awesome news!
This is exactly how I felt, I am really looking forward to the Adventurers Companion, but this is a very pleasant surprise and the cover is gorgeous.

I'll be completely upfront and say it's looking like the last one of the three updates will come next week. We don't want to rush it, it'll get more eyes early in the week, and to be honest there's
plenty here to be chewing over.

You know I
love your work Jon, I buy enough of it
, but this cover is utterly brilliant.
I'm am shocked and appalled that you like the work of internationally renowned, award-winning, veteran Tolkien artist of book and screen, John Howe.
It's gorgeous isn't it?
