Question about upcoming datasets

I know you can't specifically say WHO you are lining up for doing RW compatible datasets, but maybe you can answer this question:

Are you talking to publishers for game systems that are NOT currently being licensed for other Lone Wolf products like HeroLab? A simple "yes" or "no" would mean a lot.

Definitely YES. Quite a few of them, actually.

Rob.

I want to inform some games publishers about RW, but I'm not sure what to say to them, or if now is even the right time to do it!

Do you want us GM's to do this?

Please just tell publishers that you like what we're doing with Realm Works and would love for them to work with us to make their RPG content available through Realm Works. Encouraging them to contact us is also a good thing.

If they are interested, now is an excellent time to open discussions with them. It will take some time to get any license into place, so starting to talk now would be great.

It may make sense to express your desire for them to support Realm Works on both their public forums and directly. That way, if there are other gamers who feel the same as you, they can chime in as well.

The key thing to remember is to please keep things polite. We've had a few users in past years be a bit over-zealous with publishers, and the goal is to have the publishers keenly interested - not annoyed.
