Questions on C7's Lone Wolf Adventure Game

[bluekabuto]

Howdy Folks! 

I am brand new to the forums here, so my apologies if this post is not in the correct place - admins please move as needed.

I remember as a child myself back in the day, I quite enjoyed the Lone Wolf adventure books. I found that I still had a few of those books, tucked away lost in time. So the family and I pulled them out and started reviewing them, oh the memories that came flooding back! After browsing the web for a while, I was quite surprised to find out that there is an actual RPG based on those very same books!

This led me to Cubicle Seven's website and I saw all of those great books that were available. Being late to the party, I missed the Lone Wolf Adventure Game Kickstarter, however we managed to track down all the books that C7 released as well as some of the awesome maps from the great Francesco Mattioli.

So this brings me to my question - Since Joe Dever's passing, I noticed that C7 stopped supporting the Lone Wolf Adventure Game. Has anyone heard if they still plan to continue supporting the line? It looks like they're really focused on the Warhammer  RPG right now, but I am hopeful that they might release something new.

I am also trying to track down some of the old Mongoose LWRPG Multiplayer books, as they should be pretty much compatible with C7's version.

In particular, I am looking for:

Corruption of Ikaya
The Darklands
Book of the Magnakai

I'd like to find out some more info on these books listed above and maybe what C7's plans are for the LWAG line. I haven't really found many websites for resources on this great rpg, so I am hoping some folks on this forum can help me out.

I see that Vincent Lazzari sometimes visits this site, maybe he can jump in and shed some light on things....

Thanks in advance!

Hmm, lots of views but no answers. Maybe this is the wrong forum? If anyone knows of any forums to discuss the line of Lone Wolf roleplaying games, please let me know - I'd very much appreciate it.

thanks

Funnily I just got a Cubilce7 newsletter this morning with the following comment:

"We will also continue to share regular video updates in 2021 - keep an eye out for one in a few weeks' time. These are a handy place to talk about some of the plans that we are drawing up, as well as the games we have in development. It might well be the first place we talk about our plans for Doctor Who, <b>Lone Wolf</b>, Victoriana and more..."

So nothing concrete I'm afraid, but at least Lone Wolf was namechecked so they haven't abandoned it or lost the franchise. As you say LOTR and especially Warhammer 40k does seem to be the focus right now.

I can say that for Corruption of Ikaya, it was first published by Mongoose in their free e-zine Signs & Portents Roleplayer #39 and #40, so if you can find someone who have copies of these (or if you find them on the Internet) you could get a hand on this adventure.

Concerning the Corruption of Ikaya, yes I did see that being originally in Signs & Portents magazine. I was able to secure a copy, so we can check that one off. There's still the Darklands and the Magnakai books to find. Those I think will be much harder to get a hold of. I also did sign up for C7's newsletter, but did not get that message you had indicated. Maybe I'll get it in a bit. I am hoping that C7 does continue the line, but their main focus is the Warhammer RPG at this time. A lot of material from Mongoose's Multiplayer version got ported over, so it be easy for C7 to just clean it up a bit and release in their own trade dress. I wish though that some more time is spent on editing and proof reading as some of the copy in some of the books is terrible. Fingers crossed though.
