Interesting. I never got the e-mail.

Hey folks!

Real life and my day job have been kicking my butt in the last few weeks, (personal illness sweeping through the halfling clan, many very serious health situations in the church I pastor and then I had to attend a clergy conference at the last minute this week) so the Boxed Sets are not ready to ship yet - but we are very close.

The rest of the booklets will all be emailed out by Monday. I have started printing, binding and trimming booklets and I will begin assembling the boxed sets next week (with plenty of pictures). With my new print shop/shipping room, I can create hundreds of booklets a day now. I will send out a final email next week as well to make sure we have the correct addresses for shipping. Then they will begin shipping the week after Thanksgiving (the family will be out-of-state for the holiday) and it will probably take two full weeks to get them all shipped. I am SO ready to see all these boxes go to their new homes.

That's where we stand. I sure do appreciate your support and your patience.

I wish he'd update on the website. Not all of us have Facebook.

All I can guess is Redwulf misinterpreted your post and assumed you got your boxed set, suggesting that maybe they have been shipped.

Though it's true that, as written, the thief's skills don't improve, they are accomplished on a fairly impressive 4 in 6 chance (3-6 on 1d6). From first level on, the Thief will nail his skill checks 2/3 of the time, which is much better than most checks for low level thieves in versions of "the game." Having said that, I do agree with you that there's room for improvement. I would recommend house ruling an improvement to 5 in 6 at level 10 and beyond, meaning the thief will only miss his check on a "1." Just a thought.

Eh... I'm a purist. The original books really didn't think of high levels, only the thought of going higher- which we are used to- really wasn't its intention. Played, as is, it is fine IMO.

Seems a little extreme. And then you wouldn't really be able to e-mail him.
