StarSIEGE and font size?

Post by finarvyn »

Can anyone tell me how the font size of StarSIEGE compares to other TLG products, say C&C?

I loooked at the freebie quick play rules for StarSIEGE from the "free RPG day" event and the font size seemed really tiny, so I passed on picking it up. (My game store only allowed one choice, so I ended up with Mongoose Traveller Book 0 instead. Part of me still regrets not picking up the StarSIEGE quickplay rules.... )

Anyway, I liked earlier printings of C&C because the font size is larger than in later printings, and I have such poor vision that I was afraid I wouldn't be able to read the StarSIEGE book if the TLG products are all getting smaller font sizes.

Just thought I'd ask....

Not sure if this helps, but I recently bought a copy of the PDF version from drivethrurpg to supplement my printed box version and according to Adobe Acrobat the body text is 9 point Arial.

The introductory book is also available for free from drivethrurpg, so you might want to download it and print off a page to see if you can read it.

Actually, you could buy the PDF version of the box set and print the books out using your printers scaling properties. This would of course depend on the capabilities of your printer, and/or the sort of PDF reader that you are using.
