Sorry if this was asked and answered already, but if we pledge now, how soon do we get the digital copy? Also December 2nd?

The release date is scheduled for January. But we are going to work hard to have this out in December. However, we have to release the digital copies. Itunes, Nook, Kindle, RPGNow and Drivethru on the same day as per various contracts.

So though the pre-order ends on December 2nd, the book won't be ready for several weeks after that. Hopefully sooner. As I commented in teh video we are really waiting for art now. But I will keep everyone abreast of the progress.

Sure, blame Peter.
:P :D

I've bought other RPGs thru KS (TechNoir, very cool) and it takes a while after it's funded to get printed and such. that's all normal. But Dec or Jan would be SWEET!!!!

Well, its not just me. We've got Jason Walton and Sarah Walker working on critters for this as well. Most of the book should be illustrated. Not all, because some creatures are invisible, which tends to make drawing them most difficult. :)

Course, printing those monsters with disappearing ink would be neat. :)

Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.

Well, I pledged last week and am so looking forward to this book. Sure, I've got the 1st Ed. AD&D monster books, but one
specially for C&C is stellar! Good work everyone.

And Steve, maybe y'all are just Trollsaders? Though that sounds
like its own monster class: cross between a Troll and the
Marquis de Sade. :twisted:

What's really funny is that was my high school mascot, too. So I guess I've been gearing up to remain a Crusader for an awful long time.
