Greetings

Mine was waiting for me today when I arrived back in the UK from a business trip to New York.

I've got the pdf but having the real thing is really nice.

Regards

Edward

Got mine Thursday. It's awesome, beautiful, everything I could have hoped for and more.

Just to play devil's advocate, I will say that SOME of the new artwork didn't reproduce well. Too bad, because when I saw the online samples of these, they are actually very nice pieces.

Congratulations and thank you, Jason (and Sam).

I think they look ok... but like you said, somehow not as nice as the samples we saw earlier. I had a slightly bigger gripe against the captions under them... I think I would have preferred the pictures be slightly bigger with no captions at all... because the evocative nature of the images is somewhat betrayed by the bland 'game talk' underneath.
Still... that's an itty-bitty matter of taste and not at all important in the bigger scheme of this great big book.

Mine arrived on Thursday (10th July) but had been sitting at a neighbour's since the previous Friday (4th July) waiting for me to pick it up, but nobody told me.

It looks pretty good, very clear, well laid-out and easy to read. The rules themselves seem consistent and simple and there is a lot of GM advice and examples.

All in all, it seems to be the real deal. Now, let's hope Chaosium can support it.
