• September 18: White Wolf announces a business restructuring to account for the book trade problems and the CCG bust of 1995-1997. Among the changes noted are the demise of Wraith: The Oblivion (to be given a few final books throughout 1999), and the creation of the ArtHaus imprint. The new imprint uses typical cost-cutting measures and has the overhead of a smaller publishing company in order to continue production of smaller game lines. Changeling: The Dreaming, Mage: The Sorcerers Crusade and Werewolf: The Wild West are moved to ArtHaus. Wild West later proves unable to continue, but Changeling and Sorcerers Crusade proved feasible.
• September 29: White Wolf announces plans to team up with ASC Games and DreamForge Intertainment to publish a computer game based on Werewolf: The Apocalypse.^[1]
