    Rappan Athuk Reloaded at DTRPG.COM

    Yeah, well, Clark and Bill will discuss it. Clark is a great guy and might not be as inflexible as you think. Er, how would this drop the price of the .pdf? We are a print publisher, whether or not we "Go out of business" is entirely dependant on our print sales. The .pdfs don't do anything...

    Rappan Athuk Reloaded at DTRPG.COM

    Case has the numbers, 100 copies shipped to the convention. The pricing discussion Bill and Stewart had indicated the price for the entire set would drop. I don't know what the price for the map pack alone is right now, but it sounded like they were talking about dropping that too. Clark is...

    Rappan Athuk Reloaded at DTRPG.COM

    Amazon had to get it through Alliance then, and they took a major loss on your order. If you buy a lot of products from Amazon they were probably willing to do that. Amazon does rate its buyers based on frequency, etc. It is entirely possible that some people will still get it on Amazon orders...

    Adventuring through a forest fire.

    Um, just to stress it again. NIGHTMARE You don't want to be anywhere near a real forest fire. In an RPG, the characters shouldn't want to go anywhere near a forest fire either. Not that I haven't seen or played similar scenarios. If you are going to make things "realistic" I would suggest...

    Eric Noah's Info

    I wouldn't have high hopes of that. Generally, an employee making announcements for a company such as this without "permission" is a no-no and could threaten their job. That is why I couldn't say "<> says X is completely wrong" when I posted a reply several hundred (thousand now??) posts ago...

    Eric Noah's Info

    Um, so you are basing this off rumors and speculation from someone "who would be in the position to know."??? Wouldn't it have been a bit more "newsworthy" if you checked into it a bit more? So, who is working on it, no, really. Sure, I can come up with names, but names i can come up with are...

    [DMs] Dealing with player's who have "ineffective" builds...

    hehe, now that I post I see Clark posted a nice long posts with the reasons I pretty much plan for a party of X level. I presume access to spells such as fly when the party is 5th level. If they can't cast it directly they can certainly afford scrolls, etc. If I pretend they can't and they can...

    [DMs] Dealing with player's who have "ineffective" builds...

    Okay, normally I wouldn't respond without reading the rest of the thread but the website is slow for me this evening and my wife wants to use this machine ... These are just my opinions: I plan encounters based on what I consider to be "party strength." If you are 5th level characters you...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    I guess a number of months ago Bill posted that it wouldn't be reprinted and 1,000 copies would be it. Necro plans to hold to that promise. Bill already came by to post that fact so no more to add. Apologies to those that don't get a copy. Patrick

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    Treebore, After speaking with Bill this afternoon, it does look like Alliance wanted more copies than we had available. This would indicate a higher demand than we anticipated (always a good thing). Books should still be available through any store that can order through Alliance. Can't...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    Folks, there really, honestly should be "unclaimed" copies available through regular game stores. I don't know which stores, but they will be out there. As for the status of .pdfs, prices, or release date, I honestly have no clue. I would sort-of doubt a .pdf of RAR would be out August 10. The...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    For the last time folks, we didn't "pull product from Amazon." I can't stress this enough. The whole idea that we would deliberately not sell to someone is, frankly, idiotic. If Amazon ordered them before Alliance they would have gotten the order. They didn't. It is that simple. We charge Amazon...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    Have a friend order it from a LGS or decent online gamestore. It *IS* going to be available through Alliance so any game store or book store that wants to really can get it, if they get an order in quickly enough (as we hope Alliance sells out to retailers too). Shipping to Japan can be a real...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    Hey man, sorry to hear it. But I think I have made clear that it will be available through game stores. Alliance bought it up. Amazon CAN get it from Alliance if they want to, they just probably won't and if they do they are almost certain not to sell it for $25 or they'll be losing money on...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    There WILL be copies available through those game stores that order through Alliance (at least for a little while, you might want to pre-order with your LGS). A "sell-out" for us means out of the warehouse. This does NOT mean the book isn't available (or going to be available). It does mean...

    Rappan Athuk Reloaded on Amazon

    Well, maybe you have better info than I do, but I haven't heard anything about a "Wide Margin." It is sold out though. Reprints are based on demand. If there is sufficient demand Clark has already said we'd reprint it. There has to be enough demand to merit a reprint though. People clamoring...

    Rappan Athuk: Reloaded SOLD OUT by wide margin!!

    It is pretty easy to make comments from the gallery when you don't know what goes into making the decisions. The various parts of the decision making process indicated a print run of 1,000 copies for a $75 boxed set of something that includes a revision of previous printed books was the correct...

    Rappan Athuk Reloaded on Amazon

    We can't bring pre-orders to the Con. There are lots of reasons, but basically, we can't really do that. If you pre-ordered you should get it in the mail. We plan to have a good number of copies at the convention. WW re-orders if they don't bring enough so we should have copies available every...

    Wandering Monsters: How Tough?

    Wandering monsters and random encounters tend to get people taking sides. They always have. I generally prefer to have/use pretty extensive encounter tables with extremely small chances of running into more difficult creatures. Animal encounters predominate in most wilderness and are either...

    Bard' Gate Buildings and District lists

    Huh??? Our books are available through Amazon. Don't really know why someone would post this or what it is supposed to mean. I don't know why Bard's Gate isn't presently being sold through Amazon, but CSIO and a variety of other books are. It is possible there is some sort of glitch in their...
