Can you define "soon" for us?

Also, will they be sticking with the November 18, 1989 wardate from all previous editions, or will they update the wardate a la Twilight:2013?

From what Chris has said... the timeline can be set by the GM. the supplies and equipment lists are going to have dates so the GM will know what gear is availble for when they set the 'event' that caused everything to happen.

That's a good thing to do; then you can optimize your own campaign based upon when the war occurs. Are they going to have multiple "wardates"?

And I hate to beat a dead horse, but how soon is "soon"?

Okay.... while there is not a definate DATE for the release of 4th Edition... I can tell you it will be within the next year... mainly because what's been keeping 4th Edition from coming out has been having someone to do the layout for the book....

I can happily tell you that they now have someone to do the layouts, and once I've finished laying out the book... within a month pre-production releases will be made available on the website. three to six months after i'm finished the standard release will be done... But the pre-release will be done in a very special way, and only offered on the website.

Once layouts are done, several new modules are also being prepared for release as well.

So take heart, the light at the end of the tunnel is daylight... and not a train.

Question

So your saying that by the end of Jan 2011 pre-press editions will be avaialble for purchase? Just like back in 1980? More than 100 would be nice.

Then Aug - Sep 2011 the finished book will be possibly available?
