Last Chance to Get Your Hands on Marvel Heroic Roleplaying

Apr 26, 2013

Sad to say the really interesting Marvel Heroic Roleplaying, from Margaret Weis Productions, will soon be no more as the company is pulling the plug on the license. Currently you only have until April 30th to get your copies of the core rules as well as the Civil War and Annihilation events – and save 30% – through DriveThruRPG and then that will be it.

Here’s the announcement from MWP:

And in Marvel news… the economics of licensing a tie-in product is always something we have to weigh carefully. We brokered an admittedly ambitious license with Marvel. Our first event, CIVIL WAR, was successful and well received, but it didn’t garner the level of sales necessary to sustain the rest of the line. We’ve learned from this and are taking a very different approach with the other licensed properties we’re bringing out to you in the next three years. We believe we created a great game. Those of you that have supported us have been terrific, and we appreciate you. But, unfortunately, we will not be bringing any new product out under the Marvel line. We know this affects our customers. Those that have pre-ordered Annihilation will receive a full refund or a credit worth 150% of their Annihilation order to use on existing or future product.
