Re: Dead settings/systems where you wish they'd done one more book
The Bullets and Bootlegs supplement for Starchildren: Velvet Generation. Starchildren is great, but it's also so frustrating that it was written with the assumption that a supplement would surely be coming out and therefore lots can be left vague.

The Firefly web site is still up and they're apparently still selling product from it. But they seemed to lose all momentum after they had to switch servers, shortly after Og Unearthed Edition came out. No moderator responses to queries on the forum for months. Monster Island and Faery's Tale are good products, and Firefly was in a great "family friendly games" mode. I'd like to see them more active again.
Gold Rush Games had the same web site host and also had to switch. But they only have their "technical difficulties" blurb up, no updates or additions in two years.

Really? These don't already exist? There's certainly a lot of Tekumel info in the world. I didn't realize there weren't country books for other countries.

Yeah, I thought Smylie is still planning to publish things, just putting the RPG stuff on the back burner. (Like, the back burner of the stove of the house across the alleyway, but still.)
I'd love to see more of Swordbearer, myself. Dwarven Halls was really pretty good, and they originally mentioned a Conan supplement. Had that come out, maybe Swordbearer would've gotten the attention it deserved.

Spell Compendium only collects the spells from books that have a lot of other necessary content. People who buy it will still want to own Complete Mage, for example. What I want is a book that would collect all prestige classes, feats, alternative class features etc. - meaning most of the other books would be obsolete for most players.

If they're taking money I'd like to see them pay me the money I'm owed.

Why thank you, thank you very much. William Albacastle thanks you, too, unphased by his trip through the Caul. (Really, he dated worse women than the Nephandi.)
