I really think you should put a link to the issue in the blog post announcing it...

One other quick note:

Lord Skudley's maps will be available shortly.

I need to repackage before we post them (there are a LOT of them!)

Great stuff. Is the next issue going to have a particular theme and what's the deadline?

OK, the next two in the queue after the "weird" settings issue are an "Earth-based historical" which would cover Solomon Kane, Pirates and maybe Rippers, and after that a Sci-Fi issue, with Slipstream and Necropolis being the two main settings to showcase.

My two main reasons for waiting on the sci-fi issue are that I've wanted to cover SK and Pirates for a while now, and also, it takes a little while for enough contributions to come in when a new book (e.g. Slipstream) comes out.

This might contradict what I had written before, but this is my latest vision.

After that, anything goes, as I will have covered most of the big genres.

In all these of course, contributions are key! I would like enough to keep separate Player's and GM sections and have them feel substantial.

Anyway, I'm glad there is still such interest in keeping Shark Bytes somewhat "theme-based"

- Marc

Only had a chance to skim it so far, but it looks like another great issue. I love articles that take historical/real world facts and apply them to role-playing so the article an tactics in Vietnam caught my interest. The Showdown scenarios look like a lot of fun, too.

The theme issues seem to be working well. I was worried it might be limiting, but with themes like the current modern/horror and the upcoming historical and science-fiction themes, there is still room for a lot of variety.

Keep up the good work.
