Technically, if you rename it to Bestiary Vol. 1, I don't think I"ll be in any sort of position to rain down my assault of bitter vindictiveness. 8 days, on that subject...
 

Hey all! :)

Yes I was thinking of calling it 'Part One', but I suppose Volume one is probably better.

So it'll be something like:

Immortals Handbook
Epic Bestiary
Volume One
 


Regarding the Bestiary Preview, I could probably have an early version available (minus art) by Friday, with the final version (with all the art) the following Friday.

Naturally anyone who purchased the early version would get the art version free.

I'm not sure if anyone would be interested in this deal though?

Let me see... I can buy the no-art version now, and get all the stats, AND I get the art version a week later for free...

Or I can wait a week to buy the art version with the stats.

Hmm... let me think about that one...
 

Hey Kerrick mate! :)

Well, its always easier to visualise monsters when you have an image, so people might not want to spoil what (admittedly little given I'm no Wayne Reynolds) impact that will add.

Also I'm thinking some people may want to print this out as soon as possible (I don't know about the rest of you but I always feel more comfortable reading text off a page rather than a screen), so again they might just wait for the art version.

Lastly, the non-art version won't be available at various online stores, which means you'll need paypal* for it (since thats the only quick way I know of where I can receive the money), so if you have a credit card you'll just have to wait for the art version.

*In fact that reminds me I'll have to check if my paypal account is still functioning, I haven't actually used it yet and I set it up months ago. :eek:

True... I know a lot of people complained when the MM didn't have a pic for all the monsters.

Yeah... true again. But me, I'd like to at least get my hands on the thing and look at the monsters, see what's there, and (if I were a DM) start planning how to use them against my players. Art doesn't really figure into that - by the time I run the adventure, I'll have the art version, and I can show them what it looks like. Or not. Art is important, yes, but it's not the end-all of a book.

Lastly, the non-art version won't be available at various online stores, which means you'll need paypal* for it (since thats the only quick way I know of where I can receive the money), so if you have a credit card you'll just have to wait for the art version.

Like Fieari said, paypal can be done. Most people I know who shop for d20 stuff online have it... I don't have a credit card, myself. But either way, at least it's finally coming out. :D
 

Hmm... Well, I'll go for the early one with some pics missing and getting the full one for free some time later ;)
I've got paypal, but no creditcard, so it's not like I have much choice there anyway :P
 

Hey guys! :)

Okay here is the current situation, the final draft is virtually finished (of course this being me I decided to make some more changes last night). Anyway I hope to have that completed tonight, at which point I'll hand it to the editor for his last quick read through.

Tomorrow I am actually going to an RPG convention in Belfast (called Q-Con). Sunday I will double check everything one last time and get any last feedback from the editor before I turn the document into a pdf and do the bookmarks.

So almost certainly Volume One of the Immortals Handbook Epic Bestiary will be available this Monday (27th). I'll post the details of how you can obtain a copy both here and on the website.

Obviously this isn't an automated process at this stage (unless someone can explain how to set up such a process?), its going to be, you pay, I send it to you. So naturally anyone sending the money while I'm asleep (for instance) will have to wait until I get up before they'll receive their copies.
