I second the five clan books...preferably Mekhet, Nosferatu, then Ventrue among the first of those.

We've received clearance from White Wolf to release the Changeling material. It will be available in the next release of HL, which should be in the next couple of days.

The initial release of Changeling will include the core book plus everything in the Winter Masques and Rites of Spring. This includes full support for dual kiths. The Editor should allow you to readily add content from the other books if you don't want to wait for us to officially implement it and get approval from White Wolf.

tells us more, will it treated as World of darkness add-on? will the other changeling books be added as well?

The Changeling stuff will be included with the current material. It will NOT be separate add-on - at least, not initially. The other CtL books are planned, but they will take some time to add, plus they will need to go through the lengthy vetting process with White Wolf, so they won't be available for a number of months, best case.

You can use the Editor to add your own content for an already-implemented setting. However, there is no way with the Editor to add your own templates. There is way too much complexity involved in setting up all the basic behaviors for a given template. So there is no way for users to add support for Mage or Hunter to the WoD data files. You can readily add merits, disciplines, contracts, etc. - just not templates.

Can't wait for the new update! Love to see Mage next too.

Keep up the good work, we are all rooting for you! (patiently awaits mage)

WELL at least I can add Merits for my Hunter game...not sure how... but I guess I have quite a bit of reading..
