Where do you get that newspaper?
For sneaking you get additional xp and when you leave you can kill everything to get more.
It's in German language only, and is is widely sold in Germany ... You could try ebay Germany for that. Or the F-Shop. Which would be almost directly at the source.
www.f-shop.de
Please note that it is running bi-monthly since the middle of the 80s (no joke) and has just reached number 134 these days (I'm waiting for it to arrive at the few local shops which have it).
Looks like it: Click!
The attempt to market TDE in English was a complete failure. We had the main book, an adventure, plus the Aventuria Guide. They did not sell.I wonder why it isn't now regularely translated, are non german speaking people stink??? And I wonder why no other license borrow the idea.

But I can understand why. The main book didn't look good and had a crappy small map, plus the magic system was missing. Thus the attempt failed, and there won't be any more material in English.
The basic rules and the adventure were published in 2003, the Aventuria paperback in 2006 (much too late to have an impact). It did not stand a chance against D&D 3.5, which was also released in 2003. I don't expect any new attempt in this regard.How long ago did this take place? Things might be different if the latest game becomes popular in the English-speaking world?
I don't doubt that, but in recent times, the market for slightly more complicated D&D variants (I use this term loosely, because the game looks somewhat close) is dried out. For people who heard the first time of it, it looks like the typical fantasy heartbreaker.In fact in my country the game was popular, I think I even read a book or book where you are the hero, during the 80's.
I heard Drakensang is somewhat simplified compared to TDE4. Only the magic ability is predefined from start, so that's probably why this looks like 5 classes. There's non-mages, half-mages, and full mages, and there are general, elf-only, and human-only spells. In this respect, an elf ranger is a full mage (could learn all general and elf spells), and the elf fighter is a half-mage (could learn all general and elf spells, excluding those that require mage training).Overall I feel there's five classes, human mage, elf mage, non mage, half elf mage, half human mage, ha well and the special case of elf ranger. On top of that it's talent system available for everybody including what's more original, the special attacks.

I actually have the book. It suffered from its incompleteness.Yes, this was the translation of the TDE 4th edition.
If you look very hard, you can still find the rule book.
Indeed. You would have to replace D&D, because both games are grazing on the same pasture, and there is no compelling reason for people to switch.(A)D&D dominates everything.
