Re: C&C Players Handbook, 5th Printing (Preorder)

Not only are those who backed the Kickstarter not getting their hands on the 5th print PHB before the GenCon Attendees, but it looks like anyone who pre-ordered Amazing Adventures are in the same boat. Didn't this sort of thing happen in a previous year? I don't mind waiting a bit longer *but* it wo...

Re: Which to pick?

Trolls, Is 8320 Goblins of Mount Shadow an option for the PHB kickstarter reward? I emailed asking buy haven't gotten an answer yet. Thanks. That was my hope initially... I was a bit dismayed when I saw that the list didn't include it. Of course, at that point I realized that even A10 didn't make t...

Re: BHP Erol Otus Box

These boxes are not only strong but are able to fit more than I thought. I'm glad these got to you! Now...

Re: [Plea] Help Christina Stiles get to GenCon

There is an actual process with Kickstarter and the project proposal goes through some sort of review process. Between that and the time it takes to get it all set up and the fact that GenCon is less than a month away makes this a no-go.

Best of luck Christina -- I'll put in a good word for ya!

Any chance that you could put-out a grey scale version of the book? (With possibly a cover for the back and front) It'd be easier to print-off than the coloured version. I know I could easily pull of something like this but if the intent is to print, will the margins 'as-is' present a problem for y...
