Firefly Gaming in the ‘Verse Will Only be Available through Margaret Weis Productions Website and Gen Con

Margaret Weis Productions will release an exclusive 152 page preview of the Firefly RPG at the upcoming Gen Con. Entitled Gaming in the ‘Verse the book as well as accompanying PDF are not the core rule sets and, to be honest, I’m not really sure it can be used as a quick start for the game either although it does contain two adventures. I have to be honest, I’m not sure how I feel about the release: on one hand it’s nice to see a con exclusive for the upcoming game while, on the other, at $29.99 it feels a bit like a fleece job for fans of the series since the RPG is set to release a few months after Gen Con.

From Margaret Weis:

Gaming in the ‘Verse: Gen Con 2013 Exclusive is a Firefly RPG convention special debuting at the Margaret Weis Productions booth during Gen Con: Indianapolis from August 15 through the 18th.
 
This print title will include preview material that will be expanded upon and published in the upcoming Firefly Role-Playing Game based on the popular Fox television series created by Joss Whedon. In addition to sample art and entries from the corebook, fans will receive the first two, playable adventures in the Echoes of War line along with the Serenity Crew. All game material provided in Gaming in the ‘Verse will employ the Cortex Plus mechanic.

Both stand-alone Echoes of War adventures and the Serenity Crew characters will be available separately on DriveThruRPG in digital.
 
Gaming in the ‘Verse: Gen Con 2013 Exclusive is a limited edition and will not be sold in retail stores. Fans may pre-order a copy on the Margaret Weis Productions website and may opt to pick it up at Gen Con or may have it shipped to a valid mailing address after the show in August.

As part of our guarantee, fans who order the Exclusive in print will also receive a free copy of the PDF after Gen Con.
