There was some talk, around-about the time dT&T first began shipping to eager Kickstarter backers. Folks were asking about a trimmed down softbound volume of dT&T rules, minus Trollworld and other extra materials. The rules only edition I heard it referred to at one point.
Hear me well: I love dT&T just as it is, but I'm thinking a volume or two of these as table copies would also be nice.
My specific question: do any members here have any information beyond what I've just recounted? Any industry insiders or members of Ken's inner circle?

I'm not an insider in any sense, beyond what is granted by membership here, but I haven't heard anything to suggest that it has gone beyond talking.

I wrote one of the Powers That Be about that very issue, as I too am interested in a stripped-down book (without the setting infos), and the response was that They may consider doing that next year. I cannot find the email though. I'd imagine that, if enough people voice interest in a rules-only edition, that the Trolls will yield to public demand. Perhaps we need a poll to quantify the interest now. *nudge, nudge, wink, wink*

Poll added. I'll also post a similarly worded poll on the MeWe page dedicated to T&T.

I'm leaving the poll open but I've received what seems a definitive answer over on MeWe's T&T group. Mark Graybill states the dT&T print run is selling out, when it is gone future printings will be separate volumes covering the same material.
I'll leave you with two thoughts. First, if you want the big volume, buy one soon. Next, we'll have an opportunity to get smaller volumes sometime in the next year or two; I'm guessing sooner rather than later (but my guess and 2 silver pieces will get you a mug of skunky ale at the Tavern of the Blue Frog).

Sadly, without at least several thousand Yes votes, I don't think the Lords of Trolldom will find any need for a reprint.

Sadly, without at least several thousand Yes votes, I don't think the Lords of Trolldom will find any need for a reprint. As per the quote, below? They are not going to be reprinting the “big book,” it was a special offering for kickstarter patrons. So all future printings will either be divided volumes, presumably a rules book and a campaign/KSA house rules book, or perhaps rules-only printings. |

I do not want a rule only book.
However, I can't ever seem to not buy T&T Books so if they do, I will buy them.
Shrug, I just want more T&T books period I guess but would love to get a lot more different books.
Solo's,GM Adventures,Alternate settings, Creatures and Critters,Collected bad guys Just......give...me.....more.
