As long as the cover is not awful.

A couple of games have really died before play due to the cover:

Hero Wars comes to mind. You remember the purple leotard?

My own book, GURPS Atomic Horror, was blessed with a fantastic cover. That was luck. Although, to be honest, most GURPS covers are golden.

Sorry but the new cover looks very tacky to me.

I really like the new cover. It was worth the wait.

Question: will there be a hardcover release?

Cover looks good! Can't wait for the 1st edition. Third the question about a hardcover.

I want to second this. I can honestly say that your book is the book I've wanted to see for over ten years. You also seem to be ever-present to answer any question put to you. All I can say is, nicely done, sir.

Edit: Just to clarify, they're not taking preorders on the new book, are they? That limited edition thing was referring to BRP0, right?
