Right now the plan is to keep the main book of the Second Edition focused on the “Ghastly Age” (1765 – 1820), but with brief overviews of the various other supported time periods. More in-depth support for the other settings will probably be released either as an expansion book, or as separate supplements. As usual, first drafts of the material may premiere on this blog. We also plan to release “The Uncanny Highway” as its own, system-neutral setting (but with a stripped-down and condensed version of the Ghastly Affair system as an appendix).

Nemesis felt a little weird first, but then the examples made it click.

Now, my only concern with having multiple settings for 2nd edition is whether the alternate settings receive the sort of in-depth treatment that the Ghastly era did in the Presenter’s Manual — which to me was the most important selling point of 1st edition.
