Katherine Stark doesn't miss.

I stumbled across this project right as it goes into hiatus. Ah, what a bummer. But it's off to an amazing start, too.

It really feels like a natural extension of the core book and the Karrakin Field Guide with the Dawnline Shore turning into a quagmire for everyone involved and the Republican elements finally getting sick of Karrakin's heavy-handedness. Really cool new mechs and mechanics with the emphasis on frost effects. I like the way you can see the RSI machines as tools of necessity that were converted from non-combat rigs or purpose-made to fill some gap in the Federation. 

I'm looking forward to that string of missions and any other content you cook up once you get the chance to circle back around. Good luck and happy new year.

I will never turn down more Lancer. Instant purchase

Katherine Stark is making more Lancer content? Day one buy.

It's a fun little run. It would be a great lead-in to Legionnaire's AH MUZEN CAB flashpoint once that Aunic Field Guide finally escapes Limbo. 

Good luck on the final stages of Shadow of the Wolf, too

I did a once-through, and I'm already in love. The articles and ads give the world a lived-in flavor, the starter campaign is just the right kind of weird for Lancer, and the new mechs are amazing. Gun-cube, pacifist onion, recoil-flight, walking-gun-that-is-shaped-vaguely-like-a-Drake, and even more suicidal Sherman! There's so much character and atmosphere dripping off of every page. 

If this really is Volume One, then I am already looking forward to Volume Two. And even if there is no Volume Two, then this turned out great all on its own. It's really up there with stuff like The Short Rim as one of my favorite third-party supplements.

I love the updated content, such as the new campaign riffing on Three Houses.

However, the Dance and Diviner repeat the profiles of the two example Astirs mentioned in The Ghost Reaches. It was a little weird to be reading about the Faces of Progress and the Isle of Kings again.

Massif must have taken a look at the best third-party Lancer supplement on the market and decided to bring you on board. I haven't met a Lancer supplement I did not like, but Legionnaire really stands in a league of its own. (Now if they would just give us the Aun Field Guide, I would be happy as a clam. AH MUZEN CAB is begging to be run.) 

I can't wait for Shadow of the Wolf. 

Legionnaire is far and away my favorite piece of Lancer 3rd party content. It's great from top to bottom in the gorgeous artwork, clever expansions and implementation of NHPs, and three fantastic flashpoints. AH MUZEN CAB, in particular, feels like it could or should be expanded into its own module like Dustgrave or Solstice Rain.

So imagine how pleasantly surprised that Katherine Stark is working on Shadow of the Wolf, a full-blown first party expansion set in the Karrarkin Trade Baronies. It's not Legionnaire, but it has the ingredients for something great.

I cannot wait.

That's great news. So how would it work if I were to buy Kraken God right now? Would I be able to get the updated version later or would I need to re-purchase it to get the new content? I'm trying to decide if I should wait on that sale you mentioned.

Ah, that's too bad. I hope everything goes smoothly for those people. I'll be happy to purchase the final product whenever we reach release day. 

So it's October 5, and the header says this is projected to release in September of 2023. Any news on when it's coming out now?
