[QUOTE="Justin D. Jacobson, post: 2247584, member: 18946"] We've got seven more products planned for this year alone. All are planned for print and pdf format. And, what's more, it was all printed in the back of OQL, so I can't squirm my way out of it: [list] [*]Helios Rising – Take your Dawning Star campaign to the stars!
