Guardians of Orders' Troubles

It seems that the implosion of the d20 indy market, combined with the sliding U.S. dollar, is creating problems for Guardians of Order, publisher of titles such as Big Eyes, Small Mouth, Silver Age Sentinels, and The Authority RPG, new home of the Amber Diceless Role-Playing Game and future home of the A Game of Thrones RPG, based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Fire and Ice series.

Basically, they're looking for their fans to help them out, and buy some stuff in order to help out their immediate cashflow problems so that they can get their future products out the door. Personally, I've never been that interested in GoO, mostly 'cause I'm not an big fan of anime RPGs, and the superhero book Silver Age Sentinels never really tickled my fancy. That said, I'm very interested in seeing more Amber books released, as well as the The Game of Thrones product seeing print, so I do hope they make it through this time of troubles.
