What was to be and now can be called Vaporware

[blinky55]

So, in the past Jason Durandall wrote a post in the offical Amber forums hosted by RpgPundit, in which he wrote that the following books were in the pipeline after Rebma:

• The Engines of Bright - Erick's "Corwin's Pattern" campaign book
• The Beyonders - Don Anderson's huge campaign setting
• Not the City of Brotherly Love - a city of Amber sourcebook
• The Amber Master's Guide to Trump - written by Michael Kucharski, which was to be the first of many such guides about each power
• Chaos Rules! - Erick's alternate core book based on the Courts of Chaos
• Carol Dodd's Golden Circle sourcebook
• A Castle Amber sourcebook (to wash the stain of the Visual Guide out of people's brains)
• A sourcebook about the block city of Heerat
• A collection of adventures
• A Texorami sourcebook

None of those books (except for maybe Don's and Carol's) were ever completed. There were a few others that came up as well. I was the only author of that whole batch to turn in a publishable manuscript.

Im just creating a thread here because i would like to hear your thoughts on the possible other books there could have been if the line wouldnt die how it did. Also for posterity and just in case you havent seen the original thread.

Some of those sound good but others may have been of limited values or downright damaging to the game. A book on the Trumps would overcomplicate a system that is relatively clean (aside from that damned 4 point tump powers artefact concept).

I would also be leery of the adventures as these Amber players tend to quickly break prepared stories so why buy a 100 page book he nyou will only use the firat two in the game!

I would like to see the ones on Amber City the Golden Circle.
