It's a bit exciting, eh?
Anyone who's been fretting over the situation with third party publications should certainly read the FAQ. It's not sorted yet, but sounds like they plan to encourage fan publications.

Mention of new edition at some point. Cautiously optimistic. I remember feeling the same about Webbed Sphere but they did nowt with it.
Wish list:
Get creators back on board Computer Game New edition (smaller, cheaper, easier to get hold of in print). Would be great to get the DT&T team on as consultants. Less of a kitchen sink version, maybe two releases. Bare bones and full fat. Board game? Return of Paperback books?

I hope this leads to good things for T&T!

I remember feeling the same about Webbed Sphere but they did nowt with it. I'm considerably more excited by the thought of Rebellion having the game. Webbed Sphere sank the excellent The Princess Bride RPG, so I didn't have high hopes for them.

I'm feeling a lot more confident in Rebellion than in Webbed Sphere as owners of T&T. They appear to have a sturdy enough reputation and enough engagement with the hobby on the ground to promote T&T effectively.

As a yank, I'm psyched that a Brit company is doing this. I think they'll get the mix of humor and high fantasy. Fingers crossed. Webbed Sphere, we hardly knew ye!

Personally, I'm happy that the game should have a better future than rotting in the vaults of the pork scratchings company. There's every chance that whatever Rebellion put out won't be for me, but that's fine.
Surprising that Ken doesn't get a mention, but there we are.

Wow! Big news!
I sent an email noting my contributions to the game, and pointing out that I had two solos officially submitted and two more ready to submit. Also offered to update Dark Temple to any new rules set.

I wonder if anyone might post more here as this develops? I tried signing up for Rebellion's email newsletter, but was repelled by the cryptic "Sorry, we were unable to verify you." after submitting the form. Has anyone successfully subscribed? Like bigjackbrass, I am excited to see what they might do even if it's not for me.
