The Illuminati: Crime Lords rules . . . the last component . . . have now gone to press.
This will now be a March release. It had been planned for February, but it didn't quite come together in time. Playtest, playtest, playtest . . . and then it DID come together, and now I'm quite happy with it. Illuminati fans should like it, but it is very definitely NOT just "Illuminati with mobsters." A lot of things are different . . . some to fit the gangland flavor, and some just because there are more than one ways to skin the proverbial cat.
The Crime Lords web page is now up; you can see several pieces of art, four sample cards, and my design notes (plus a couple of outtakes from the rulebook, which now become Official Optional Rules).
-- Steve Jackson
In Babylon 5, the Humans and the Minbari never quite saw eye to eye. But now with the Earth Alliance and Minbari Federation fact books, you can see the universe from either point of view, from the complexities of Earth cultures in 2258 to the subtleties of the ancient Minbari caste system.
