From the White Wolf homepage (http://www.white-wolf.com) White Wolf fans, you do not want to miss this! On Saturday of this year's Gen Con, White Wolf will reveal a secret project that has been years in the making. To put it mildly, this is big news. If you are going to Gen Con, you want to make sure you set aside this time! Where: White River Ballroom, Indiana Convention Center, Indianapolis, IN When: 10:00 a.m.; Saturday, July 26, 2003 What: ????? Arrive early, because there'll be free T-shirts and party passes while supplies last. Saturday evening we will have a party open to all fans! Those with announcement t-shirts will drink on us! Those unable to make the announcement should check out http://www.white-wolf.com/ at just past 12:00 noon Eastern when we'll make the official press release available. .this is the time. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Is it even Vampire related? Some on guys.. where's all the spurious speculation?

[ quoted text not captured ] My guess is this announcement, the books to be released next year and the next expansion for V:TES all have one little word in common: Gehenna! Just my hopefull 2 cents.

I actually hope that it is the VTES compatible Mage-expansion Michael Eichler has been working on for quite some time now! Tim

Sorry Andy B, I have lost your Email. But I agree with you and Colin G that the only project that could take years in the making is that Christopher Shy has designed a new face. I can't wait wait to see it ;) *INCOMING! DUCK AND COVER!*

Beuller? Surely you can get there cheaper than that? That would be a nice prize for WW to put up for a tournament though ...

I don't know, like rubbing our faces in it to even post it here. I'm going to be at GenCon. I like WW. I /like/ free drinks. But I wouldn't even be going to GenCon if it weren't for V:TES. Maybe we could start the nationals at 11:00? David Cherryholmes Duke Radiology P.E.T. Facility (919) 684-7714 david.che...@duke.edu

Maybe we > could start the nationals at 11:00? They're looking at accommodating the parallel start, of course. The time of the North American Championship (what is the "National" of which you speak? :-) will not be changed, nor will the time of the announcement. [ quoted text not captured ]

My suggestion would be to just relocate the announcement to /my/ table. Pass it on up to Steve and see what he thinks, will you? > The time of the North American Championship (what is the "National" of > which you speak? :-) will not be changed, nor will the time of the announcement. If you can just go ahead and arrange for me to drink for free Saturday night regardless, I'll stop worrying about it. ;) Thanks for the stellar effort! [ quoted text not captured ]

Turn up early and collect your T-Shirt and party pass, then go to your competition and find out about the announcement at the party ;-) (don't know if this is feasible and i'm the other side of the ocean anyway so I don't really care ;-P)

Well they have been adding new Ally stuff lately. From Anarchs: Ghouled Sunset Strip Sarah Raines (anti-Mage special) From Camarilla: Erichtho (recruit Mage special) Could be very interesting.

Mike showed that to me before he left Ramstein and I was very impressed. And since it's been several months since he left I'm sure he's worked on it some more. ErikC
