January 7, 2008 - Not only is there a brand new Troll Hoot on the horizon (early April) with some great events and a spiffy poster, but we're going to have some special stuff ready to show off when we get there. This includes the long-delayed Loar: Lair of the Minotaur module for Peryton RPG (with the infamous owlbear dilemma that we so love to spring on unsuspecting convention players) and possibly even the Troll Tunnels short story collection!

December 31, 2007 - On the edge of a new year, we just wanted to share a few words borrowed from the Doctor. "It's all waiting out there. Everything's brand new to me: all those planets, creatures, and horizons. I haven't seen them yet - not with these eyes. And it is gonna be fantastic."

December 9, 2007With the New Year fast approaching, we'd like to thank Si, Ziggy, Armbruster, Monk, Pneumonica, Regis, Diego, Mandy B., Caed, DCRaygun, de Castro, and MCLEA (with a special tip of the non-existent hat to Stony for helping out with certain secret projects) for all their help in making Peryton Publishing a quality joint - online, in print, and in person. And we'd like to thank all of the new customers and contributors that are helping to make 2008 look like a fairly fun and successful year. Just in time for Christmas, Kopfy's Caverns is here! The second annual Troll Hoot is in the works. POW! is on its way, with great art accompanying our humble TAG rules. The Peryton RPG is gathering material for a serious release of some scenarios. Last but not least, our fiction release Troll Tunnels is well underway. 

November 16, 2007 - Back from Con on the Cob, but we'll be traveling again soon for Thanksgiving, then putting stuff together for Troll Tunnels. This means we are interested in submissions if you've got a sword & sorcery tale you'd like to share. Check the "contact" page for information on rates. 

October 23, 2007 - It's not ready for sale yet (we're sill playtesting) but Simon Tranter's cover for the upcoming POW!  (Powers Out of this World) game so totally rocks that we've got to show it to you anyway. We'll be playtesting "What Price Liberty" at Con on the Cob this year so stop by and see us if you'd like a closer look. Like all TAG adventures, this one will include all the rules you need to run not only the adventure itself, but a full campaign of your own.  We're running three events at Con on the Cob this year: Powers Out of this World (the aforementioned TAG superhero game), The Dark Cave (Peryton RPG), and Return to Sihlt-Awash (TAG fantasy).

October 17, 2007 - Curious about the Peryton RPG but not sure you want to buy the whole book? Now you can get an abridged but fully functional edition, complete with sample adventure, all the new classes, and the full details on knacks, magic item creation, and the Peryton advancement system, for less than a dollar. You can get to Peryton Lite from the Peryton RPG page or by clicking here.

September 4, 2007 - Having braved the fires of Gen Con and been re-forged, our latest FreeFall adventure, Rocket-Men vs the Saucers II: The Straits of Sub-Light, is now being distributed to the masses for a mere $7.99. Like all TAG adventures, Straits of Sublight has all the rules you need to play right in the book, so call your friends, get out your rayguns, and see if you can save the Icarus X-1 before it disappears from our universe forever!

August 25, 2007 - Back from Gen Con. Read Kopfy's Blog for more on that adventure. Soon we'll be releasing the commercial version of the FreeFall, Rocket-Men vs the Saucers II: The Straits of Sublight. Also, due to better-than-expected sales, we're lowering the price of Imp Hollow and future publications of the same size to $7.99!

August 07, 2007 - We've just put together a special treat for a lucky few among those of you who find us at Gen Con (Indy) this year - a slick printed version of Rocket-Men vs the Saucers II: The Straits of Sublight with a cover by Simon Lee Tranter and interior art by Régis Moulun! Sure, the regular edition will be for sale here later, but you'll only have one chance to snag one that says "Gen Con 07" on it. Unless you write it on there yourself, of course. But that's just tacky. We're signed up to run five events at Gen Con '07.

July 29, 2007 - Today's news should be fairly obvious: NEW WEB PAGE! Pop by the forum and let us know what you think. 

July 24, 2007 - It's here! Our first TAG adventure, Imp Hollow, is ready to buy. Click it in the "On Sale Now" column or just click right here to find out more about this fantastic new supplement featuring art by John Armbruster, Diego Gisbert Llorens, Andy Hopp, Régis Moulun, and more!

July 22, 2007 - Coming veeerrry soon: our first TAG adventure, Imp Hollow.  This scenario will also contain all the rules you need to play it, so the Hollow will be a complete game session between two covers (players not included). And just so you know we're serious, here's the cover, courtesy of Diego Gisbert Llorens.

June 23, 2007 - Something about Free RPG Day.  Forgot to copy the original post before updating last time. Oops.

June 4, 2007 - The forum is back online.  Thanks to Pair Networks for responding so quickly (on the weekend even) and being ready for this kind of thing in advance.

June 2, 2007 - Yes, the forum is down for right now, but it will be back.  We're working on it. 

April 2, 2007 - We're back from the Troll Hoot, which was... well... a hoot. All the good dirt can be found at Kopfy's Kreche (linked in the "Never Click Here" box, below).

March 31, 2007 - Laggy's Adventure Gaming (LAG) is now Tom's Adventure Gaming (TAG). For more information, see the forums. Development has begun on Isun, the next World of Elder supplement. More news may be forthcoming after we get back from the Troll Hoot.

February 20, 2007 - We're through with MegaCon, Athebes is still looking good, and everything is on track to make this an eventful spring and summer. There's even a facelift for the home page coming up. Keep your eye on this space and the forum for more news.

January 4, 2007 - Happy New Year! 2007 is going to be the Year of the Peryton! This is not as horrible as it may sound. We've got a new string of freebies rolling out starting this week, we've got Athebes streaking through final draft phase, and there are minotaurs and spacemen peering over the horizon. Sure, a few unfortunates may be gored and eaten by malevolent flying beasties, but they probably had it coming!

December 8, 2006 - Thanks to Mister Simon Lee Tranter, Athebes has a cover! Scroll down a bit and take a peek. And if you like that, you'll love what's inside! We're looking at a release date around January 15 for the book.

November 5, 2006 - We're back from Con on the Cob which, by the way, totally rocked! Thanks to Kali Z. and Rob B. who helped us playtest Ruin Quest. We also met some great new artists and played some cool games, and now we're ready to get back to work. Look for a free PDF supplement to Peryton RPG within a week or so, and Athebes sometime this winter.

October 19, 2006 - Con on the Cob is coming! Don't forget to look for us there. We'll be running two LAG adventures and a Tunnels & Trolls session. Athebes has been postponed a bit, but it should still be ready by mid-winter.

August 20, 2006 - Gen Con is over and we're getting ready for Con on the Cob with two LAG adventures and a Tunnels & Trolls session. Peryton Fantasy RPG is now available online and we're putting the final touches on the Athebes setting for this fall.

August 1, 2006 - The Peryton RPG is ready to order now! Also, don't forget to check out our new Rocketmen vs the Saucers teaser in Upcoming Events and Ruin Quest in the Developing Projects box.

July 27, 2006 - It's on its way! If all goes according to plan, the Peryton RPG will be ready to order by the middle of next week! And don't forget to check out Ruin Quest in the Developing Projects box.

May 14, 2006 - We've rearranged the front page a bit to give you more information on Athebes, the Primal Land, a new setting we're planning to put out in October, so scroll on down and check it out.

April 22, 2006 - Scroll down for a bit of a treat. That's not quite what the final layout will look like, but it does give you an early glimpse of Janeen Satone's fantastic cover art. The Peryton RPG, as previously stated, should be ready for release this August at the very latest.

March 22, 2006 - Everything but the gloss is done on the Peryton RPG. Also, keep checking back for updates on our convention events. If all goes according to plan, we'll be running introductory adventures for both Peryton RPG and L.A.G. at Gen Con Indy 2006.

December 19, 2005 - Okay, so we paused a bit to play with something new: we have our very own forum now! Stop in and say hi. Or else. Now I guess we'd better get back to putting out some actual products, eh? In other news, Laggy's Adventure Gaming system (L.A.G.) is back on the development roster, and the Peryton RPG is almost ready.

October 22, 2005 - Work on the RPG project has really picked up. We're almost ready to give you a taste. In the meantime, we've at least added a bit of peryton lore for the curious. Scroll down to learn more about these mysterious creatures.

September 13, 2005 - For one thing, you might have noticed the new entry in the "Upcoming Events" box over to the left. Second, playtesting on the Peryton RPG has revealed a few rules that need to be tweaked, and of course we're still hard at work turning all these notes into something that makes sense and looks pretty.

August 23rd, 2005 - We're back from Gen Con and we've still got tentacles on the brain. Met some great people and played a lot of games. Now it's back to work, slaving over a hot... okay, room temperature keyboard and getting our own game back on track. As you can see, we at least managed to make a few more changes to the web page and more are coming!

August 15th, 2005 - We're off to Gen Con in a couple of days, so you won't be hearing any news about the Peryton RPG or any of our other projects until next week. Seeya in Indianapolis!

August 5th, 2005 - Okay, so the False Starts announcement was a bit of a false start itself. That project will probably take a different form, somewhat later. The main reason is that the Peryton RPG is really coming along and we're focusing all our energy on that, for now.

July 30th, 2005 - The playtest of Peryton RPG is going well, but we're not just sitting back and watching. Soon we'll be accepting submissions for False Starts, a fiction magazine with a theme you've never seen before, one that's probably a bad idea, even. Guidelines will be released in a week or so and then you'll see what we mean.

July 21st, 2005 - The playtest edition of the Peryton Role-Playing Game™ is back from the printer and going out to several hives of scum and villainy as we speak. This game features enough core mechanics from the world's most popular role-playing game to make it easily compatible with their supplements, but has been streamlined to create a faster, more exciting tabletop experience with less bookkeeping and prep time.

July 16th, 2005 - Welcome back to Peryton Publishing. We got kinda sleepy for a while, but now we're back with some new tricks and some new projects. Okay, so we still haven't gone any farther with Voidfarers or Ziggurat Builders but hey, they're not hurting anybody. Expect more printed publications. Expect to hear about a whole new take on Lovecraftian gaming and about the best d20 variant rules you've ever seen.
