(Oakland, CA) Issaries, Inc. announced today the imminent release of the
Japanese edition of their Hero Wars roleplaying game.
Atelier Third of Japan will release the game in Tokyo on November 24th. To
commemorate this great event, they are sponsoring a gaming convention along
with Guild Corporation. Greg Stafford will be present at this convention as

"We are very pleased that the Japanese edition of Hero Wars will finally be
available," says Stephen Martin. "Guild Corporation and Atelier Third plan to
aggressively market the game, and we are certain that they will be successful
in popularizing it in Japan."
The Japanese edition of Hero Wars includes the contents of both
