Hello, everyone!

This month we have, of course, all sorts of great games and gaming stuff for you.

June has a new How-To book coming out. Continuing in our examination of the traditional character classes, we look at how to play a great cleric. This book and others in the series look at ways you can use a standard class to create a great character, and do it with some fun and flare.

Next up, we have an all new series of Mini-Games: Airships. This little gem is based on the Landships ruleset, so it can be played alongside Landships or all by itself. Take to the skies with this great series of Steampunk battles.

Of course, by now we have conditioned you to want more, and so we deliver once again. How about some more aliens for your game? Yep, Infinite Futures has more goodies coming with Infinite Aliens 5. Ten more alien races to play and shoot with your ray guns.

We also have some additions for Avalon Pathfinder with a new adventure, encounter, magic and treasure. Here's a little secret - the ball is rolling on some larger adventures for Pathfinder, which we will be publishing under our Tomes of Adventures product line. So stay tuned, Pathfinder fans, and we will let you know more as they get closer to completion.

It couldn't be a new month without more artwork, so it's on its way. New character clip art, additional art collections, and other goodies will all be coming to light this month.

We also continue to update our older games. This month, we will have new versions of several old classics. Realms, Hamster that Ate the World, Armored Assault and Robot Jocks are all on their way. We will also have an updated version of the Arcana Core Book, fully edited and made all pretty.

This month, we also start releasing new conversions of some older RPG products, namely a Pathfinder version of our old D20 Action Hero and both Pathfinder and D6 versions of D20 Drama. We will continue with others in that product series, bringing them out in both Pathfinder and D6 editions for all who love those systems and genres.

Last but never least, our first Avalon Model should be coming out this month when we release our Fantasy House series. The first product will include a free download of the basic house, followed a little later in the month with a full-blown version of the model. I have to say it was a lot of work getting this ready, but it was well worth the time and labor - this paper model looks great.

One more thing before we go.

We are planning to start work on the second edition to IF this fall when the head writer gets done with grad school. So now is a good time to talk about what issues you think need to be addressed, and what you would like to see in the next edition.

With that in mind, we are thinking that the second edition will be smaller in size, and dropping a lot of the repeated game mechanics that you can find in the core Pathfinder rules. This will allow us to then paste the Pathfinder logo back on the front cover and increase the game's presence. We will also be doing some new art, and offer a tighter edited product.

What else do you think should be done with the game? What changes are needed, what do you want to see, what do you hate, what can Avalon do to make this the game you want to play?

So go to our forum on RPGLife and let us hear from you.

Ok, that's it. As always, have a great time, and play a great game by having a seat at the round table of fun with Avalon Games.
