Awesome news for the RPG gamers! A Deluxe Werewolf the Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Edition is on the way! In the hopes of creating a massive super deluxe edition, the creators of Werewolf: The Apocalypse posted this project on Kickstarter in the hopes that the fans would help bring the book to life. Well, originally this post of mine was going to be a plea to the werewolf fans to help fund this book, but within just a few hours of the project being posted it not only hit its goal, it went way over it. So instead of a plea, this blog is a celebration of the upcoming awesome heading our way! Check out the book details below.
From the Kickstarter page:
These are the final days-
The signs are clear:
Even our pups know
That this is the age of the Apocalypse!
Werewolf the Apocalypse roared into hobby games in 1992, inspiring a generation of fans to stand up and howl their defiance at a corrupted world in a battle they knew they were doomed to lose. WtA presented the Garou: creatures at once both man and wolf, and filled with a Rage against the evils that would destroy and corrupt both the natural and spirit worlds. Capable of transforming into a variety of forms and blessed with Gifts that enabled superhuman and supernatural powers, the Garou fought many foes, always knowing that in the end they would fall. But what stories would be told and what songs sang of their exploits!
This epic tragic story, combined with the unwavering dedication of an unparalleled fan base, is the reason this book is being published. Werewolf: The Apocalypse – 20th Anniversary Edition brings the entire World of Darkness experience full circle and will serve as the perfect anniversary milestone to celebrate two decades of gaming the epic sagas of the Garou.

- All thirteen original tribes, tribe variants and Lost Tribes, with their signature Gifts and Rites updated from the Werewolf: The Apocalypse Revised tabletop rules.
- Rules for character creation and advancement.

But… It hasn’t been released yet. The project isn’t even over.
Ah, you misunderstood me. I meant that I already backed it on Kickstarter before your post.
Ah, my bad :) sorry
I call shenanigans on Baeroth’s claim.
Where did you get that picture?

OK,thanks
the concept for the werewolves are cool but the fact they cant turn others, age , and vampires can infect them turning them into abominations but not the other way around makes them kind of lame. that and the WOD is heavily centered around vampires too much. like mummies originated from vamps? “squick”
