I hope this has plenty of Bard support.

Honestly, I'm much more hoping they try to focus on most of the other classes that do not so easily fit in a "street" level game. Something along the lines of the Urban Druid/Ranger/Barbarian for classes like Cleric and Monk, maybe a Cavalier that focuses on personal security for in coming merchants/caravans.
Really don't need anything the more obvious classes like Bard and Rogue, who already play well, (best) in urban and street settings.

Well the world turns,
and a hungry little boy with a runny nose,
plays in the street as the cold wind blows,
In the ghettooo....In the ghettooo....
See the children of the earth who wake to find the table bare
See the gentry in the country riding off to take the air[...]
See the jailor with his key who locks away all trace of sin
See the judge upon the bench who tries the case as best he can
See the wise and wicked ones who feed upon life's sacred fire
See the soldier with his gun who must be dead to be admired
See the man who tips the needle, see the man who buys and sells
See the man who puts the collar on the ones who dare not tell
See the drunkard in the tavern stemming gold to make ends meet
See the youth in ghetto black condemned to life upon the street

I fully expect this NOT to come out on september 30th.
Only product that has not been updated.
You expect them to push the sole September Player Companion from September into October, when 2 such books are already planned for that month? Based on past patterns, I think it is far more likely that the 2nd October release will get pushed into November. If they are going to delay Heroes of the Streets, they would have to move 2 Player Companions from their currently scheduled months to the following months before this Thursday (when the monthly order spawning starts).

I hope you´re right. But the fact that we don´t have an actual cover or updated description speaks against it.
Would´nt be the first time that no Players Companion comes out in a month. I think it already was the case in february.
I guess we´ll know more tonight.
But the most important thing is that the product turns out good.
I don´t need a Player Companion that is mostly worthless every month.
But since Owen has taken over that seems to have changed - last/this month´s Dirty Tactics Toolbox is real good -the first one since Melee Tactics Toolbox.

Good work needs to be recognized. One can see that you ask people what they want and then manage to transport that into the final book.
Keep up the great work and thank you. :-)

Can I expect more Calistria support in this book? the whole 'Optional subdomains focused on city life and urban challenges, opening up unique powers and expertise to clerics and inquisitors.' seems to suggest that it is possible.
It was possible, but that's not the way the subdomains went. We mention Abadar, Abraxas, Andoletta, Apollyon, Arqueros, Asmodeus, Besmara, Bergelmir, Bharnarol, Brigh, Cayden Cailean, Chaldira Zuzaristan, Cyth-V’sug, Daikitsu, Dispater, Droskar, Erastil, Erecura, Eritrice, Ghlaunder, Gorum, Iomedae, Irori, Kelinahat, Kurgess, Lamashtu, Lissala, Marishi, Milani, Nethys, Norgorber, Shei, Svarozic , Torag, Trudd, Urgathoa , and Winlas, but nothing specifically for Calistria this time.

Great cover – Jirelle rocks the crowds! And it's just showing up in my September order authorization mail, too. Probably useful for a Hell's Rebels campaign.
One nitpick though -- Compared to her appearance in the Advanced Class Guide, doesn't Jirelle look a bit pale on this cover?

Ah... it seems to me Calistria just screams urban adventures...and I am probably a little greedy for more Calistria favored options.
