All in on 4.1

When we started the journey to build Shard Tabletop, we were convinced that embracing the incredibly popular and growing 5th edition of the world’s greatest role-playing game was the right way to go. And while its been incredibly fun to build both a product and a community around this shared belief, we just kept having this nagging feeling there was a better way.

To that end, we searched high and low through all our old books and most memorable games and we’ve come to a conclusion. We love 4th edition. It’s really so much better than anything that came before and everything that has happened since.

We are selling all our 5th edition books and slowly transitioning Shard to fully embrace the joy that is 4th edition gaming. We know all of you will be extremely excited to take this journey with us. It will take some time, but Darren tells me he can have the transition completed in the next two weeks.

All existing content and characters will be transformed into their much superior 4th edition counterparts. All our partners are so excited to have a stable edition to build on and will be taking the journey with us.

As great as 4th edition already is, we are convinced we can make it even better. So over the next two months, we will be working feverishly to produce an updated version under the OGL that we are tenatively calling 4.1.

Happy April Fool’s Day everyone! Hope we didn’t scare you too bad.
