Pre-order your WotBS hardcover now and save $25 on the full price!


UPDATE: ALTHOUGH THE SPECIAL DISCOUNT PRICE HAS EXPIRED, YOU CAN STILL PREORDER THIS BOOK AT THE REGULAR PRICE!

Some good news for those of you anxiously waiting for the WotBS hardcover! You can now PRE-ORDER the book and save $25 on the full price.

The full price of the hardcover is $199.99. The pre-order price (valid until Christmas) is $174.99, which is a saving of $25.

Payment is processed by PayPal, and the book will automatically ship on release to your registered PayPal shipping address unless you specify otherwise.

If you do not have a PayPal account, don't worry! PayPal accepts all major credit cards and does not require you to create an account in order to make a purchase. However, if you don't have a PayPal account, you must include your shipping address in the notes field - otherwise we won't know where to send your enormous, beautiful hardcover book!

We are currently expecting the book to be completed in January 2009 (roughly a month from now). The pre-order price, however, is only valid up until Christmas - after Christmas day, you'll have to pay the full price of $199.99.

In addition, the first 10 orders will also get an additional, secret bonus with their order!







The massive War of the Burning Sky hardcover compiled edition for D&D 3.5. The biggest. The best. Hundreds of pages of gaming goodness, all in gorgeous full colour!
  • All twelve adventures of the War of the Burning Sky Campaign Saga
  • The Player's Guide and Campaign Guide
  • A massive rules appendix compiling all of the new rules material, classes, feats, spells, magic items and more from the saga
  • Five bonus sidequest adventures
  • A short section covering Ragos, the capital city of Ragesia
  • A narrative prologue covering the events leading up to the War of the Burning Sky
All in a massive, beautiful, full colour, hardback book - bigger and better than any that have come before it, this is the ultimate in D&D campaigns!

Edit - and does that price include shipping?

Can you confirm a previous post that stated a black and white version will be available at a reduced price?

We're not entirely sure; but the price point we've selected will accomodate any anticipated variation. 650-ish at least, maybe up to 800 depending on what else we cram in at the last minute.

Yes.

If I had $175, this would be the first thing I spent it on.

I'm jealous.

I will have $175, but not for a week or so. No first ten for me

Do you have an estimated release date and price for the b&w version? And will it contain the full hardcover, just without those beautiful maps and pictures in color?

We haven't really started planning the b/w version yet - other than to say that yes, we will definitely do one.

Yikes! For $175, it would have to come with fold-out battlemaps for all the encounters too for it to be worth paying the price. I already bought the whole saga on PDF and it really isn't that expensive for me to print it out myself if I were to do it in B&W. Heck, I could do the whole thing in full color on my own printer for that price, possibly lower.

I realize Paizo is a larger publishing entity and thus can defray the expenses of a print run more easily than EN Publishing, but their AP only cost $60 for a full-color hardback and it sounds like about the same amount of material for 1/3 the price. I would find it hard to justify spending this much on an AP hardback unless I were swimming in money, which I am not. Not that the WotBS is not a cool campaign. I just find the hardback price tag a bit cost-prohibitive for the public at-large.

Absolutely correct.

However, its not intended for the public at large, just for those people who want a stunning, full colour "luxury" hardback version. Unfortunately, this is what that kind of RPG book costs.

When I get mine it is certainly not going anywhere near my gaming table. (Well, maybe one time so I can show the guys my name is in it )

Yup, we said that from the start (although it is a much, much larger book than SCAP). Folks still wanted us to do it, so we went ahead.

You might find the b/w version more tempting - it'll be much, much cheaper. That one's more aimed at "the public at large"; this one's the super-luxury item.

Done! Thanks for making it so easy to order, I've been hit and miss keeping track of the threads to find out when I could, so finding the link so easily accessible was very useful.

Will you be following up with a shipping notice when the book heads out? Thanks again!
