Ptolus - Six Days Early!

[catsclaw227]

Got mine at work today (Southern California). It's taking all my self-control not to rip open the box and blow all my deadlines.

Hey Whiz -- I'd be interested in a PbP game with you, in Ptolus, as well. I'm a veteran D&D'er (since 1979), yet I've never done a PbP game. (I hope that doesn't count against me.)

Signed by Monte, with a "For Matt:" personalization. Awesome.

#15/1000. Totally stoked.

Mine was waiting when I got home; #248.

(I originally preordered within a few days of the announcement, but the credit card I gave 'em expired a couple of months later, and I forgot to update the info with them, so my original order got cancelled. Dangit! )

Let me see. [delving through emails... can't find my original WW invoice... checking site.]

Looks like I bought it (Full Payment) Friday, August 26, 2005.

#336 here. Ordered in mid-January.

Good lord, this book is intimidatingly huge!

 

[catsclaw227]

It really is impressive. The cover is textured, so you can feel the "stones" on it. The inserts are dense with information, the bonus CD is.... well.. dense. (Complete with a 25% off coupon for dtrpg.com for Malhavoc, Necromancer and Sword & Sorcery PDFs.)

The CD comes with:

[Folder: Tools and Reference]

Hmmm... If people in the USA got it early, then maybe Dragonworld.De will get it sooner, too - they are usually very fast...

I live in SoCal also, and didn't get mine. Dammit.
