Cubicle 7 has announced that they are ending the Lone Wolf Adventure Game line.
They have released Rookhaven, which was a Kicstarter exclusive book for the game in PDF form for purchase for a limited time,are having a contest to win one of the few remaining hardcovers of it, and have put the remainig Lone Wolf Adventure game items on sale for 50% off. All the PDF Lone Wolf products are on sale at Drive Through RPG for 50% off too.
inks to the Cubicle 7 news stories on the line ending, Rookhaven, and sale.
Very disappointing since Cubicle 7 announced back on April 22nd, of this year that The Book of the Magnakai would be released finally as that covers ranks 11-20 for Kai Lords and the roles in Heroes of Magnamund. That book wold have completed the major books for the line. Mongoose had released a version of it. So the major text was finished for it for years.
I'm guessing Cubicle 7 is wanting to focus now just focus on there other lines like Warhammer and rellated games which has been getting lots of releases.
The RPG plays well and I have been working on setting up Fantasy Grounds to aid in playing games online it in the past week when I learned the news of the line ending.

I've mentionned this somewhere else but this announcement is similar to what happened five years ago: in December 2015, C7 announced that they would continue the publication of the LW gamebooks, taking over from Mantikore-Verlag. The following month, they said that they would not do it after all. The following April, Joe announced that he would publish the gamebooks himself. In this case, C7 announced back in April that they would expand the LWRPG with new material, only to announce that it would not happen a few months later. You should note what they say about the reasons why this is happening: "some recent unexpected developments". I interprete this as it was Holmgard Press that told them something that they were not seeing coming that put an end to their collaboration. And August Hahn did made a few mentions on Facebook that Holmgard Press is working on something new for the LWRPG: "Yes, Holmgard is on top of this and we will have a full announcement as soon as there is something solid to announce." link |

Hi! I'm collecting news for Fighting Fantazine and I was wondering if anyone knows if the books and maps will be published elsewhere, such as Magnamund.com? I can see you can still get pdfs from drivethru. Is there anywhere else people can get them? I'm sure our readers would love to know.

For the exact same books like the ones of Cubicle 7 to be available again, I don't know. But August Hahn once posted that something is brewing over at Holmgard Press regarding the LWRPG: linkAs for the maps, since Cubicle 7 was not the original publisher, it might be better to ask directly the illustrator, Francesco Mattioli: link |
