Does it have ribbons?

Kidding aside, it looks awesome.

Save a copy for me!

It'll look shiny and impressive next to my other, similarly thick setting books.

So Ptolus, World's Largest Dungeon, World's Largest City, and...?

(I'm actually genuinely curious to know who else has cracked the 600-page mark in a single book.)

Wow, that looks gorgeous. I hope we'll get something similar with the 4e version? Where did you get that done, Lulu?

It's not over 600 pages, but Dawning Star: Helios Rising takes up a pretty nice space on my shelf, and the box for Goodman Games's World of Aereth is pretty big, too.

Truly a thing of beauty.

Not to be the sole selfish b*st*rd of the thread, but is there an ETA on when those pre-orders may be shipped?

To all who made this happen, congratulations and thank you, keep up the awesome work!!

I've already ordered the pre-order print run,which takes a couple of weeks (I think!). Then shipping happens after that, which, depending on where you are in the world, will vary in time.

A lay-by, to most of the rest of the English speaking world. Pay a little bit at a time, basically, and get the item once you've paid for it. Also known as "buying stuff for people who don't like to wait and save money in the bank."

Ah, I see. No, we have no way of doing that, I'm afraid.

So I stumbled in from my game tonight and spied a package on the step. I picked it and checked out the return address...Lulu!!!

I've only just begun to flip through and look at this amazing production, but my first impression is...well, impressed! I am impressed.

Thanks to everyone responsible for this great product, and once again, congratulations!!

Wow, that looks INCREDIBLE.

When you finally put out the 4E edition of this, I'll be buying it for sure.

Keep up the good work!
