Remember, you never get a second chance to make a first impression! If you spent months slaving away on a product, it would behoove you to take a few extra days to make sure all your publicity materials are the absolute best they can be! And that includes running them by several people for editing or even just plain spellchecking.Steve's other two points are well taken as well. I too noticed you were only offering WetWar for sale on some unknown site. So I went looking for it on RPGNow, and didn't find it there - why the heck not? The fact that it's a board game may indeed be a problem for a PDF book. The only way PDF would be an advantage here is if you have oodles of different tiles to play on. Give them 20 or more A4/Letter sized tiles, and suddenly PDF start to make a lot of sense.One final comment is regarding the price of your product: 2 Euro for 26 pages of rules??! Rock-bottom prices like this often play against you. People assume that if it's cheap it must be low-quality. You probably wouldn't lose any customers by pricing it at 5 Euro - and you'd obviously be making 2.5 times as much money on it. Price it at 10 Euro and you might start losing some cheapskates - but you may actually be gaining some other customers because they'll get the impression it's a higher quality product! Pricing can be weird like that...Lastly - if you really want to impress people with teh quality of your work, consider having a freebie for download. Maybe just a page of rules and a page of the boardgame artwork. Whet their appetite without giving the whole thing away. If what you have in there is really that good, don't be afraid to show it off!</blockquote>
