Is it confirmed that there will only be a $120 dollar edition?

 

[Arnwyn]

Yes (but there will also be a pdf version).

 

[Belen]

Yes (but there will also be a pdf version).

I wouldn't be so quick with such suppositions in general. It can easily come across as condescension.

Which Ptolemy are you thinking of? The astronomer? Alexander the Great's general and one of his heirs? Any of the Ptolemaic dynasty who ruled Egypt?

Condescension? Me? I am honestly surprised that someone else on these boards knows who Ptolemy is. And I'm speaking of the astronomer.

You're understimating people. Roleplayers have a habit of picking up esoteric knowledge, and there are some seriously knowledgable guys here.

In an email I recently made I referred to "making offerings to Ananke" as a way to wish someone good luck. The reference was totally lost on her. It would have passed with a nod at my gaming table.
