    Should Campaign Settings include a metaplot?

    There were plenty of reasons I stayed away from those offerings and none of them had to do with the novels. The thing is a really liked both concepts immensely as well. As far as the FR novels go, the only problem I have with them is that they are trash. I don’t have a problem with them...

    Monte does have a choice on how his book gets distibuted. He doesn't work for WW, he is their customer. If there is a problem it will affect Monte not WW. They do call him evil on his boards ;)

    Should Campaign Settings include a metaplot?

    Wow. I wouldn't think it would be skewed to no like that. For instance FR is probably the most used setting on the d20 market. It enjoys high sales and doesn't seem to be in the decline many other settings are. The you have Ravenloft which was being done by WW. From what I understand...

    Warlords of the Accordlands - Wow!

    OK Psion, I stand corrected. That is reminiscent of FF. :confused: :eek: :heh: :(

    Warlords of the Accordlands - Wow!

    I find that very disturbing. Supposedly it's 3 years late because they wanted to make sure it was up to 3.5 specs. Now there are still "a lot of 3.0isms." Still, there is no way in hell it could be as bad as FastForward.

    Warlords of the Accordlands - Wow!

    There are 4 books Psion. The one that hasn't been put to shipped status for me is World Atlas. BTW, if anybody is intrested, Amazon has the Master Codex and World Atlas marked as retail $39.95 still. Those two books really retail for $49.95 so if you get in on the normal mark downs, you are...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    Yep, which means they at least think they can get it in. Regardless of what WW says. If they do in fact get it, the people who ordered it at $75 are gonna make out big time.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    The true bargin hunter knows how to get something on Amazon on the cheap. Find items that are marked wrong on retail (warlords: Master Codex and World Atlas. Both retail for 49.95 not 39.95) You can bet it will be fixed when they find it. And then there are the deals when they have sales...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    Well, you know the old addage. A penny saved is a penny earned. The deal with wanting to get stuff cheaper is more a one of better lifestyle. I don't care if I cost Joe more than it costs me. I just want to get the very best price on anything. It doesn't matter if it's a car, house, TV, or...

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    How's that? You can always order it. You don't get charged unless/until it ships. Personally, I believe someone's going to end up with egg on thier face. Anyway, I'm more intrested in the Warlords of the Accordlands Rpg books. They are awesome. Can't wait until mine come in.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    People would have you believe that the "F" stands for friendly. I on the other hand believe it most definitely stands for "flatulent."

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    Exact same with me. I'll take my shot at $50. If they don't get it, no big deal. I'm sure I can get it at my friends games stor for 20% off if I really feel that I want it. I think WW fails to realize that Amazon gets things from gaming distributors all well though.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    The only problem I have with direct sales is that there is no chance to flip through a book before hand. Of course I'm an Amazon junkie though. The only time I go to the FLGS is when I can pick a book up cheaper there. Usually just Mongoose products I decide to pick up and didn't pre order...

    Crack is cheap. Being a RPG junkie.... now that's expensive.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    I'll be one of the first to admit it. And one of my best friends owns a game store. I've always been mercenary with my dollar.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    The only problem is I think Amazon gets things through Alliance too.

    Ptolus at Amazon?

    Someone bought this up on the Montecook board. If you look at the discussion on the Amazon page, someone but a link to what Monte said about it. My friend talked to Monte last Gen Con Indy about people buying from Amazon burning his store on this product. Well, Monte asked him if he would...

    Poor Nightfall. :confused: Why do you torment yourself so? You know that will never ever happen.

    Warlords of the Accordlands

    As soon as I get the books I'll read through them. What I have seen isn't enough to give a review. I can say that they do look to be very high quality.
