Arrg, I may rename my generic setting. Sounds like an awesome book though.

Chaosium has given me the go ahead and asked when I can have it done but won't make it public knowledge until I come through with a finished manuscript. After all, I'm an unpublished author and they have gotten burned before.

The initial release will more than likely be a monograph for the same reasons listed above but if it does well it could see an expanded release. I'm thinking Advanced Chaos & Catacombs (AC&C) and have tons of things than may have to be cut due to space limitations, the monster section for example could get a trimming.

The chainmail bikini rule came out of a serious campaign conversion of John Carter of Mars. I always use hit locations in my campaigns but didn't think his chest and abdomen should be "completely" armored. So I use a variant of the variable armor rules on locations. For instance, his chest would be 1D8-2 armor points due to his harness and his arms would be 1D6-3 from bracers/ arm bands while his head and legs would be unarmored.

The optional wardrobe malfunction table was just plain funny.

Yeah, this sounds great! Normally I'm wary of Chaosium's monographs but this is one I'd actually pick up. I'd love to take part in the playtesting as well. Good luck with it!
