Return to Shadows...
¦ dialling in from Sky Bunker ¦
08:23 GMT, Monday 30th June 2008. Thank the Lord I was able to reach a comfortable / logical point to pause with EDGE on Friday. Reason: a session of Yellow Dawn on Saturday. Noon til late. Further play testing of the mammoth Shadows of the Quantinex campaign I finished writing earlier this year. The characters have just completed New Zealand, including the [TMPRL VLLY] which has led to a lot of feedback and scope for improvement. After the game session finished on Saturday night, I went upstairs to grab a 15 minutes snooze and recharge my brain a bit… woke up 8AM the next bloody morning. Must have needed the sleep big time. Spent Sunday fighting spores of Satan’s bush in the garden (I have the cuts on my arms to prove it) and rewriting large chunks of this section of Shadows of the Quantinex. Some really great new stuff and a much tighter focus on giving the characters a chance to understand what is happening in the [TMPRL VLLY]. This kind of change requires me to release an updated Beta version. I should be able to finish the changes tonight, and get the new version (Beta 3) to the publisher tomorrow.
As usual, the majority of changes are documented in the errata section:

However, due to the risk of SPOILERS I’ve limited the amount of detail to simple suggestions for GM’s running the Shadows of Quantinex campaign.
I’m praying this significant mental return to Shadows of the Quantinex will not wreck my recent high-speed train of thought and creative output for EDGE. Tuesday night I want to be drop back in where I left off Friday with renewed gusto. Fingers and toes crossed.
