Gaia is on the boat!

By player33475, in Anima: Beyond Fantasy RPG

That was quick from announcement to on the boat. So we should see it in early July.

Fantastic! They probably waited until it was at the printer before they announced it, so that it wasn't hanging around with little being done.

I hope they speed up releases a bit. I'm chomping at the bit for Dominus Exxet and Those Who Walk Among Us. I'm looking forward to Gaia, but I'm more looking forward to those than the setting book.

Grrrr. Now I have to wait until at least July. But it beats waiting until next year.

I think it's a good thing, that the setting book is the next book. Sure, player like to have new cool stuff for more a**-kicking, but Gaia I would be a great help for all gamemasters (like me) out there. Personally I think it's a little bit unfortunate that many information about the world exists i.e. in the Tactics game but isn't / wasn't available for the rpg. Sure, you can make many things up - and in fact, i did, since my group had several adventures in Americh - but if you want to stay canon (mostly), a setting book is mostly needed.

So waiting 'til July. I preorderd already :)

What I hope this is would be a token to show that they are going to release these more often (I am thinking original book release date(s)) and will come out with the others sooner. I will buy this book not for the extra rules (allthough nothing stopping me from using it), but I will be buying it for the world. It don't know about the rest of you... but the world has me the most intrigued out of all of the books.

I am also looking forward to "those who walked among us" which if I remember correctly will add things like new Nephilim and have a large monster list. Sorry ki domminions, but I just find new races more interesting rather than what constitutes Ki abilities.

Woh! A world book! Finally. The information in the core book just ain't enough. I haven't played a single session yet, but I'm afraid that the players will have too many questions about Gaïa that I can't answer. So this is good news. Very good news. And since I'm pretty happy with the rules, I don't need any more rule book at the moment. Maybe some monster/summoning/creature-thingie, though. That'd be nice.

Well its in stores. Who has it? Spill the beans.

According to Amazon uk this won't be out here till September :(

Anyone know the release date for this in the UK? (My local retailer also didn't seem to know). I'm really hoping they're just a bit behind and will update to tell me I can have it next week or something :P

My FLAGS in Madison, WI has it, I'll be picking up a copy, it's pure world setting with about 7-8 pages devoted to rules. It looks better than the core book, and reads better too.

I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this as well just waiting for mine to show up. But a review from others that have it would be grand.

I ordered a copy from frpgames.com a couple of days ago, but since I live in Sweden I guess it'll take some time to get it. And dang, it was expensive. Stupid $27.95 shipping...

I should have it in like 2days or so. Cant wait to read it and see whats up lol.

My copy is currently in transit from NKG - hoping it will be here before he weekend...

I preordered it on amazon.de, but still got no message that it was shipped. So I fear I still have to wait. On the page, they mention "17. August" as release date :(

Mine just arrived at Canadian Customs, according to the tracking number, so hopefully it will come out quickly and be here by early next week by the latest.

I got a message, that i'll get the book this week, already. I am excited as hell
