        To the Mystaran Mailing List members, our most valued readers.

        We are pleased to announce today the Thaumont (AC 1016) release of
the Special Edition Mystaran-Mailing-List Mystaran Almanac.  You will have
the privilege of being able to read before anyone else about the major
events that transpired during AC 1015.  Learn about the Ethengarian-Glantri
war, or how the Shadow Elf revolution ended!  These are but a few of the
things found in this volume.

        You might have noticed that we mentioned special edition.  Does this
contain more than the normal Almanac.  Unfortunately, no; it actually
contains less.  It's special in the sense that it is a pre-release.  Sort of
like a draft version, if you will.  A few spelling mistakes have probably
yet to be corrected, and several events are not listed.  For those wishing
to know what is missing, here is a list:

        1- The Hollow World: both the atlas section of the various HW
nations, as well as the events of AC 1015 of the HW in the timeline are not
present in this version.  We must still go over the messages from our
correspondents to verify the accuracy of our information before releasing
this.

        2- Heroes, Villains, and other major personalities of the world are
not described.  We have the artists and poets, but most other categories are
left empty.  Interviews with these people are being conducted as we speak
(err, write).

        3- Predictions for this year (that is, AC 1016), as well as the
advertising usually found at the end of the Almanac.  We simply decided to
only reveal this in our final product.

        4- A few other minor things that you will probably notice in the
index but not find in the product.  This isn't an error; they just aren't
included in the Special Edition Mystaran-Mailing-List Mystaran Almanac.

        5- As mentioned above, there might be writing mistakes we have yet
to spot in this pre-release version, so we apologize for those now in
advance.  Also, this is what you would call a "text" version (that is .txt),
so many mistakes will probably be due to the conversion between versions
(notably accents of foreign names and such).  The final version will be a
"document" (.doc) format with all mistakes corrected.
        

        Everything else that is to be expected from the Mystaran Almanac is
present, and we guarantee that the information is correct.  Those wishing to
have the completed Almanac will simply have to contact us.  It should be
available within a month or so, and if you have this Special Edition, you'll
get a great discount [Real World: it will be free for everyone to download
from our webpage]  We'll let you know when it's ready!

        So, we sincerely hope you enjoy this special pre-release offer.
Please, read on and immerge yourselves fully into the wonderful world of
Mystara.
