Mercenaries: Born of Blood PDF Preview!

[HyrumOWC]

While we wait for the printed version of Mercs, we thought we'd put up a preview of what Mercenaries: Born of Blood (http://otherworlds.cx/catalog.shtml#mercs) has to offer. You can get the 48 page PDF preview by clicking here: http://otherworlds.cx/files/mercspreview.zip. The file is 10 MB in size and you'll need a zip program to uncompress it.

Enjoy!

Thanks! Since the book clocks in at 192 pages, with no filler and crammed to the gills, we figured that the best preview would be one that highlighted almost all of the aspects of the book.

The hardest part was not putting even more in. Mike Tresca did an *awesome* job on this book and I can't wait for people to get it in their hands.

With the holidays and stuff, you'll probably see it in stores around early January.

This is really sweet looking.


Not only is it actually all about Mercenaries and how they work (unlike AEG's Mercenaries, which is just a bunch of general stuff loosely related to them), I like how it's all eras, not just medieval fantasy. Even the spells. Usuable in Dragonstar and such.

And it's got guns.

Thanks for the preview. Worth the 2 hour or so download.

Thanks Jeremy!

We wanted this book to the end all be all for Mercenaries, regardless of what kind of game you play and Mike really delivered.

Have to second what TJeremy said. You have another customer here when this is released.

Whew

Woohoo, glad it's getting an early positive response!

As soon as it's available from Amazon.com I'll link to it from my home page (http://www.retromud.org/talien).

There's also the Merc forum:

where you can see how the book evolved. Special thanks to Joe Kushner and Chris Camfield for their constructive commentary. They keep me honest.
