Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dana_Jorgensen" data-source="post: 1591936" data-attributes="member: 12962">The answer is....Yes, there will be a printed version. I announced plans to do so last October, IIRC. But I have been at a conundrum for months as to what format to use. I could print as regular volumes matching the PDFs, collect it into one monstrous annual compendium, or print it in a binder-based fashion like TSR's 2nd ed. ad&d monstrous compendium series (yeah, I even found a POD that does short runs that way). Problem is, while everybody is happy to tell me how stellar the work is, absolutely none of my customers has expressed any opinion in what format they'd like to see a print version in.So the end result is I did a lot of thinking, a lot of numbers crunching, and the series will be published in volumes matching the PDFs. I will also being doing the compendium version as limited editions, for both restricted direct sales and as prizes for charity events. Try to market the compendium in any other fashion would be foolish, since the book would be near 500 pages long and cost more than most gamers are willing to pay in a single purchase. I doubt I'd sell more than 50 or 60 of them at $60 a pop. The print volumes will be released one at a time, hopefully one per month starting next month, with the compendiums appearing once the given year's individual volumes are all in print. All the PDFs are being reformatted and revised (well, volume 4 and earlier, anyway), and we'll start providing a global acrobat index for the PDFs soon as well.BTW, volume 7 will be out in PDF at the end of the month, focusing on conceable, camouflaged spy-type weapons.This post has been edited for processor-induced ommissions.
