What role could the mysterious Smoke Wizard of the Choking Tower play in this unfolding threat?
"The old world will burn in the fires of industry."
"The trees are strong, my lord. The roots go deep.""RIP THEM ALL DOWN."
A "Choking Tower" has got to be a factory chimney. :D :D :D

Or a Colossal Roper? :p
Avoiding reading this as I want to play it as spoiler-free as possible, but I have to say this: Even the mock-up covers look damn cool. Can't imagine how awesome the actual covers are going to be.
... several bonus encounters set in Numeria...
Yup. That's some good goodness right there...
NOO-MERRY-AAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!
I'm patient...not!
I so want this AP.

That's the second time Pale Creepy Eye Wizard showed up on a mockup cover, and I still don't know where that art came from. Has anyone seem him before? Or maybe he's just doomed to only show up for a few months at a time on mockups.
I'm pretty sure it's the Forever Man (the same as my avatar) from the Magnimar book (City of Monuments). I don't own the book, so I don't know what his deal is.
Nope; not the Forever Man. He looks different.
Well whoever he is, he looks awesome!
Who is the artist?
With any luck I will have this to read on the train from Philly to Hartford the day before Halloween. Not to run unfortunately but to read and think about.

Man, with all these Mechon, it's a good thing Amiri got her hands on the Monado.
And now I cannot unsee.
CHAINSAW SWORD.Not just a chainsaw sword, but Amiri raging with a Chainsaw Sword, too.
Delightful.

Amiri Daak, DALEK KILLER
A "Choking Tower" has got to be a factory chimney. :D :D :D
I assumed it was a phallic joke.
Whoa, is smokey the crimson eyed on the cover Furkas Xoud? If so, he seems to be a particularly FEARSOME type of undead (assuming he IS in fact undead). I don't seem to recall incorporal undead that are surrounded by smoke (mist perhaps but not smoke). Maybe he's a variant of a type of undead then?
He does look pretty cool. If I ever run this adventure (converted to Savage Worlds, of course!), I look forward to this fight. I have no idea how it will be presented in the actual module, but I would have the PCs face him in a room full of pipes and metallic meshes that the smoke wizard can phase through to frustrate the heroes ability to lock him down in one place. :D
EDIT: Although I suppose wind based magic (like that you would use to disperse a cloudkill spell or whatever) could be particularly effective against him...?

Maybe he's a variant of Wraith? I seem to recall their artwork as showing them to be made up of shadowy smoke.
Congratulations, Ron, on the publication of this one! It's the big time! :D
Did anyone else get there shipping soon email?

You know what I love so far about this AP?
The Iconics getting Loot!
Lirianne loots the 'droid's Laser Gun from book 1 for the book 2 cover
Amiri loots the chainsaw from book 2 for the book 3 cover (after her sword was rust monstered anyway on b2 cover)
I can't tell if Lini or Damiel has looted anything for Book 4 cover, but Lini's hands (scrunch your eyes to make it work) look similar to the quad arm droid here? Maybe she got them woodified to not lose druid powers?
Book 5 and 6 don't have updated cover art yet, so no speculation on whether Damiel will be toting one of the Brains from the Brain Collector on the Book 4 cover, but it wouldn't be surprising.
So, yay! Iconic Loot!

That is also one of the things I am enjoying about this AP, or at least the artwork we are seeing. It makes me conclude that the picture of Lirianne on the cover of the Technology guide must be what she is wearing after the conclusion of the AP...
Also, I too have received my 'shipping soon' email, so I am that much closer to the edge of my seat.
So anyone have this yet?
Too soon, I think.
To the best of your knowlege anyway. Maybe a murderer snuck in. There's a cheerful thought to keep you going until the end of your shift.
PLEASE tell me Furkas Xoud is something new and not just an undead of some type ???

But not too soon to start pulling out our hair (if any), and screaming at the screen, "WHEN, DAMN YOU?!? WHENNNNN?!?!?!"Does "now" work for you? (I can only answer so many questions - I'm at work so I can only look at it in short spurts, though after 6 PM CDT I'm the only one in the building.)
What are the monsters and new tech items?
