... Seems to have just revved up and pulled a wheelie.

Excellent!

...and I definitely agree, this is the best ME rpg of all time, and I loved MERP when it was about.


If we could get mini-pdf stuff (short adventures, mini-guides, whatever) in-between the main releases, that may ease the long waits. Only asking!

Mini-pdfs would be a great thing. Privateer Press is doing something similar with the Iron Kingdoms rpg, which keeps us rabid fans happy in the long wait between releases. They release one pdf each Friday, and each month has a theme. It can be small bits of rpg rules or background info for the theme, but the concept works very well.

In the reinstatement announcement there was something about only being able to release PDFs for physical products. I don't think that they can.

That's correct - we aren't anticipating any pdf-only releases.

Super news! Can’t wait! Many thanks!

I'm sorry if this is a dumb/previously answered question on the board. Would I be able to get a PDF copy of the “Heart of the Wild” form C7 if I would order the book thru the Amazon? Will Drive Thru have the hardcopies also in their offer or only the PDFs? Should I rather preorder it directly and only from C7 store in order to get a PDF and the book?

It has been answered before. C7 store or local game store with Bits & Mortar

Thanks Valarian, I couldn't remember the statement's contents.

Ah well! Thanks Gareth

Put my money where my mouth is pre-ordered, can't wait.

On a sub-note and I know this will upset loads of people, but I wouldn't release this as a pdf until the book version has been in stores for at least a week or 2.

This stops all the people who don't want to pay for a product from picking up the pdfs for free for a while and may get them to pay for the actual product. There are several sites were this stuff is hosted openly and this must have a major impact of a companies profits. I for one would be very annoyed if I spent X amount producing a product only for some individual to make it available for free.

On the other hand, it means having your paying customers wait for one or two months more, in the hopes on making people who don't want to pay... pay. And I doubt they would decide to pay just to get the book one or two weeks earlier.
