Any word on new products to expand A Time of War?
-
Well, there are certain pumps and creams...
Oh, wait, you said A Time of War?
Well, there's the ongoing "Touring the Stars" product line that profiles individual planets in the Inner Sphere, giving you a fully realized canon setting along with a planetary map usable for Inner Sphere in Flames games. Each TtS contains multiple "Adventure Seeds," describing AToW plot hooks you can use if your characters are on that world at the relevant point in its history.

I think Herb was one of the internal figures at CGL pushing for AToW products so with him gone I'm not sure we can expect more products until there's another shuffle of people in the company.
-
Wait, when did Herb leave? I missed something... I was wondering why there was so little going on for AToW. Please expand on changes over the past 1-2 years. I have been on very minimally over that time.

Officially, all we know is that Herb Beas and Ben Rome are out. IIRC, it's been about two years for Herb and a year or so for Ben. Randall Bills is acting as Lead Developer right now. We also know that CGL is working on new product, with the focus being on completing Second Succession War right now. There have been no announcements regarding direct supplements for A Time of War, but it can be safely assumed that any future products will include relevant RPG support.

They are currently going to release a CCG based on D&D with the help of Wizards of the Coast.

They also need to fix that main website as it still shows Herb as Head Dev.

That's not a CCG.

Coincidentally, the timeline has not advanced since July/2015 with the release of TRO: 3150. [/conspiracytheorist]
