Your Guide to the Wrath & Glory Pre-Sale
The pre-sale for Wrath & Glory: Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay is almost here! We know that you’re excited to find out all about our plans, and we are thrilled to share them with you!
First, let’s talk about a few key products. The most important one is certainly the Wrath & Glory Core Rules.
This book has over 400 pages and acts as your complete rules reference for Wrath & Glory. It includes extensive character creation options, gamemastering advice, and so much more!
And for the collector, the Core Rules will be available not only in hardcover, but also in Deluxe red leatherette and in a special hand-bound black leather Limited Edition! We’ll be announcing the final prices on these next week.
(Note – These are sample images. The final embossing will be in gold.)
The Wrath & Glory Core Rules are the perfect way to get into the game!
Wrath & Glory: Dark Tides is the first full adventure module in the Wrath & Glory line!
The ocean world of Charybdion seethes with discontent and a growing sense of danger. Charybdion’s planetary governor has gone missing, and his councilors struggle to select a suitable heir. Meanwhile, mysterious murders, nightmares, and other dangers threaten to cast this planet into anarchy and despair.
Dark Tides is an anthology of five linked adventures that bring your heroes face-to-face with the dangerous villains responsible for Charybdion’s troubles. Can your heroes confront the vile forces spreading insanity and corruption? The fate of this planet is in your characters’ hands—if they can survive what lurks beneath the dark tides.
These are two of the most important products in the pre-sale, but there’s plenty more to see! We’ll be examining more of the individual products throughout the pre-sale itself. Meanwhile, let’s take a quick look at the full list…

Über 100 Tacken für die Grundregeln? Nee, dann greife ich lieber zum alten „Freihändler“!
Naja, es sind ja auch 5 Würfel dabei…
Und ich würd für die Kohle eher das neue Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4. Edition nehmen…
😉
Mich sprechen die Cover Artworks jetzt nicht wirklich an. Da hat mir die alte Aufmachung und die Illus besser gefallen… also soweit man das auf den ersten Blick vergleichen kann. 😉
Weiß jemand ob und/oder wann das auf Deutsch rauskommt?
Ja, Ende 2018, Anfang 2019.
Wird es dann ein Crowdfunding geben? Oder wird die Übersetzung ein reguläres Produkt?
