Over in Ideas, Massimiliano Marangio brought up the topic of a Glorantha module. As a long time player of tabletop RPGs, I would enjoy playing a module set in the world of Glorantha -- enjoy it enough to make it myself.
Here is some brief information about Glorantha.
Before I dive into this project, I'd like to see what kind of reaction it would get.
If you're interested enough to help make the module, don't hesitate to post or email me, even if you'd never heard of Glorantha until today. At this point, I need lua gurus more than Glorantha gurus.
Any interest in a Glorantha module?

The Lhankor Mhy library contains some more (outdated) information:

I know the setting well enough and may also help with the coding part.

Chaos horrors would be very interesting in a glorantha module. I know you can make levelled monsters, but maybe chaos features would be something like thaumaturgy. You never know what you are going to get. Sort of like the chaos paladins (?) of Zangband.

It would be cool if you could code an "Attracts Magic" Flag, which makes all aimed spells target the creature.
Wow, a duck swordmaster! Just like a hobbit, but with normal luck, no food creation, plus the AGGRAVATE and Beserk Ability. Such fun! Maybe the only race that can really resist water hounds. (The Gloranthan yeek?)

He is one of the many weaker 'slave' orcs, often mistakenly known as a goblin. Code: Select all

Wow, nice response. 
So far, I've made Pavis, the Big Rubble, and changed most of the important buildings.
My next priority is to make the wilderness map, (probably just Genertela and islands) and to start making the player races. Then comes the fun part: making monsters.
Any contributions, especially maps and things not on the above list, are much appreciated.
Update:
I'm making slow progress. However, my (lack of) lua skills prevent me from doing some things I really want to. I may decide to hold off on the project until 3.0.0, and use this time instead to learn more lua.
