Campaign Books?

Hey, I just saw an entry for Campaign Books in the official site's catalog. How long has this been a thing?

Hypothetically Total Chaos, Sword and Dragon, Wolf and Blake, and Fist and Falcon could all fit under this banner.

reading the quote on the top of the entry

Quote
The Campaign is a brand new style of book, expanding upon the Track system presented in the Starterbooks. Designed to comprehensively cover an Era, players can use a Campaign sourcebook to run games across a wide swatch of time. Whether selecting individually tracks for a given year or running a large campaign across multiple worlds and years, a Campaign sourcebooks provides a full toolbox for any player group to throw down a wide selection of exciting games on the table.

it sounds like that is exactly what they are doing, creating modular Chaos Campaign books to fit your custom units.

I would hope they lean more towards the campaign stuff in the Chaos March SB or the first edition RPG, or at least duplicate the repair rules from Strat Ops. But yeah, knowing Catalyst, it'll probably be more in line with the Starterbooks.

If no one else has noticed that page yet, it's probably new? So maybe they're still in the planning phase.
