Just to separate this out from the speculation thread, I figure I might as well make a pseudo-formal announcement.
Land of Promise, a Tir update that hauls the elven country up into 2074, is now out. It introduces a new batch of Princes (voted in democratically instead of being largely self-appointed) and mentions their rumored political affiliations, talks about getting into the Tir and what to do once you're there, gives information (and NPC stats) on who you might run into during your stay, and even sneaks in a little extra mojo -- like the Moonlight Thorns magical society -- and an assortment of plot hooks that can either drag players into Tir Tairngire from outside the country, or can keep them busy within the Tir's borders. The bulk of the book is aimed at lowering the bar just enough to make the Tir an attractive place for some adventuring, instead of the nigh-untouchable uber-nation it used to be...it's not "look but don't touch" any more, it's "touch, but only for the right price."
It also has a couple pretty fun little winks-and-nods to the original
Tir Tairngire book, some intro fiction, some full color artwork covering most of the new Princes, and Wakshaani's favorite NPC ever,
Grimmy the Grimoire!
So, check it out already:
