There are some BR products that are OP, including the BoM. Ed has assured
us that he is looking into getting this OP material reprinted in some
format, and back on the shelves for us. The BoM is one in particular that
should be available again soon. Keep your fingers crossed.

For right now the future of BR looks good. TSR will be producing new
supplements for it through '98. In order to keep BR alive and well be sure
to let everyone know just what a great setting this is, and convince them
to try it. You can also send in e-mails(or snail-mails)to TSR and tell them
how much you love BR. Then of course there is the "green ballot" that is to
say the more sales BR gets the more likely it is to stay with us. In short,
if it says BR, buy it. Lastly don't panic. Premature fear that a setting
will go under can spread like a wild fire, and it only harms the potential
sales of the setting, so please don't go around openly worrying about the
future of BR. Just support BR both verbally and financially and it will be
around for many years to come.
