Runequest is dead, Long live Wayfarer

Mongoose has announced that they are dropping the agreement with Issaries for Runequest. However they are not abandoning the d100 system they developed with Runequest II. They intend to drop the Runequest references and release it as Wayfarers. There is a thread on their board devoted to the topic.

And yes I know about the d20 based Wayfarers RPG by Ye Olde Gaming.

Just to be clear, Mongoose is re-branding the system as Wayfarer (singular).

I like BRP and some folks I know are into it so I am glad its going to be doing well.

I think the name is cheesy and confusing though since its riffs off Pathfinder and Wayfarers.
