When I went to the White Wolf site and it said "There are no Upcoming
Products" for VTES, I was frightened.

Is Vtes being discontinued? Why aren't anymore products being
developed for Vtes?

White Wolf's LiveJournal entry from August 04th, 2008 states:
"VTES cards final proof and dropping in the precon cards..and at
some point doing the starter boxes and display."

I imagine that simply means "There are no products for which we have
announced a release date."

Given that two artists have mentioned work they've done 'for an
upcoming VTES set' to various folks since Twilight Rebellion came out,
I'm with James - it's just a matter of nothing that's had its release
date announced yet.

V:TES Keepers of Tradition is the next set.

Keepers of Tradition is a Camarilla base set with 100 brand-new
vampires.

Official release date will be sometime in October. Details to come.

Crypt aparts, i really do hope there will be also plenty of brand new
library cards for the cammies in the upcoming set (both for single clans and
for the sect as a whole), in the new sets.
Iirc, it's since the Alastor card in kindred most wanted that camarilla
don't
gets good new library cards.
More, it would be very good to see a similar approach in card distributions
as seen in Lords of the night, something like:
most of reprints givene in starters, and all the brand new library cards in
boosters.
Of course, that will depend on the whole number of cards in the new
cammy set.

That's hardly a surprise. After Kindred Most Wanted, what sets have we
had?

Legacies of Blood, to refresh the Bloodlines (who last had a set before
the previous Camarilla set) and introduce the new Laibon clans. Not a
good set for Camarilla toys.

Nights of Reckoning - not a good set for introducing vampire-specific
toys generally, except where they relate to Imbued.

Third Edition + Sword of Caine - a base set and mini-expansion for the
Sabbat (where the last base set was for the Camarilla), so not really a
good opportunity for Camarilla-specific toys.

Lords of the Night - because the Indies last got starters in Final
Nights, it's a good time to re-introduce them.

Twilight Rebellion - because Anarchs suck, and the Camarilla don't.


Where would you have introduced Camarilla specific toys?

I'm not surprised in fact.
What is was pointing is just that it's long time the since cammies got
new library cards, so i hope that the upcoming set will include plenty
of new library cards and strategies for them.
Lords of the night was very good for the indipendent under this (and others)
aspect (giving very good library cards to each of the four indie clans).
So, i just really do hope that new cam set will be the same as LoTN, this
time for the 6 cammies clans / sects as a whole.
