I was never interested in MM, but I am very glad to see the FBI product still churning along between the App update (i.e. it will continue), and now this Kickstarter.
I hope we continue to see a steady stream of "new" T&T product!

That's what I love about T&T! It supports so many different styles of play and yet remains inclusive to all.

Now that M!M! seems to be a lead pipe cinch, here is some more news from the halcyon days of TnT ...
On the Tome of Visages KSA was asked about an updated Starfaring (though its debatable, arguably the first space-based RPG) and the Troll god replied thusly: At this time, no, but there may be an academic reprint if things go according to my plans.
I'm not exactly sure what "academic reprint" might mean, though I'm guessing it's a simple reissue of the original. If I hear more I'll pass it along.

I guess 'academic reprint' means the original, so that people can explore the educational possibilities of a game of it's timestamp. A bit like reissuing 1e T&T. Not may people will choose to play it over later versions, but will be interested to see what the second ever RPG looks like. That's a long winded way of saying, I think you are right

KSA's Trollhalla Press has just released a book of nonhuman spells for dT&T. Included within its pages is an omission from the dT&T tome which disappointed many fans, That's a Natty Beard.

If you've been holding back from the M!M! kickstarter? FBI has sweetened the kitty with a nice DM screen for the game as an extra.

KSA's Trollhalla Press has just released a book of nonhuman spells for dT&T. Hey, Piper, thanks for the heads-up. For some reason this title is coming up as not available via the link posted and through searching DriveThru. We may have to check back a bit later. I'm hoping it's just a repost issue due to an unforeseen hiccup. In the meantime, do we know how this differs from the various dT&T Kindred spell books?

Odd ... perhaps he's getting ready to upload an updated version?
Also, I know Steve Crompton was asking KSA to hold off on the release for a day or two because of the KickStarter and the update to that (in addition to the "Weirdworld" module just released). Maybe he acted on that request.

Okay, reading between the lines? It seems some artwork was accidentally included in the release that shouldn’t have been. I’m guessing the book was pulled until the correct artwork is inserted.

My surmise (above) was apparently correct, the link is available again and the artwork included has changed. I've included the link with this post in case it has changed from my original post:

My M!M! inspired monster creation, the Hopperman Toadster, made it into the new M!M! edition. Woo-hoo!

Steve Crompton was asked on FB about Tunnels & Trolls: Whispers of the Past 5.5th edition rewrite. He stated it was finished, but the team was currently discussing how best to release it.
This is good news, because I think edition 5.5 has a lot going for it.
For those of you not familiar with this work? Basically they have integrated the additional material in the 5.5 edition into the fifth edition rules (instead of as an add-on) as well as added some other articles complementing this particular edition of the game we all love so much.
