Bah! Wish you'd announced this before I had bought volume 1 on lulu.

It's on lulu: http://www.lulu.com/shop/newt-newport/openquest-basic-edition/paperback/product-21476953.html

How frequently do you expect to be releasing these? May as well group as many as I can to save on shipping, if they're going to show up in rapid succession.

Are the HotOE playing cards noted above the same ones that are to be included in the Clandestine Game Case from the Kickstarter?

I wondered the same thing. I'd be upset but I'm barely surprised anymore when backers from any Kickstarter (not just Chaosium's) aren't handled first.

Also, the slipcases were supposed to be KS exclusives.

And RQ1, Apple Lane, and Snakepipe Hollow are available here, but not yet (in print) to backers.

Yes, they are hardcover. Softcover books were only done for Kickstarter backers and it is very unlikely we will reprint those softcovers.

Does this apply to just the core books, or all the KS softcovers? Petersen's Guide, etc.

Will the game be in print, or is it pdf only?

The slipcase was supposed to be a KS exclusive...

Hi,

It hits stores on the 8th of Feb and then we'll be putting it up on Drivethru too (though we'll have to wait for our own proofs back first).

Is there any difference between the two versions? Is the in store version a traditional printing, for example?

I know it's not a large amount... but why do the prices differ?

It's pinned at the top of the MW forum here.

Aha!  Thanks for pointing that out.

Is there a separate errata doc for those of us with a print copy?

The MRQ2 version is in Italian

An item I don't feel obligated to buy - what a rare treat!

Sorry but there has never been a BRP version of Stupor Mundi. There are three different version for the last three incarnations of RQ (MRQ1, MRQ2, RQ6) but no BRP.

Hmm, hang on there.  I have a print version (via Lulu, I think) of MRQ1 and RQ6 versions.  And I have a pdf version of Kidnapping in Al-Halisa which appears to be for BRP.  What's the MRQ2 version you mentioned?

(would have PMed, but your inbox appears to be full)

Are there any plans to bring out a BRP version of Stupor Mundi or will that remain a RQII supplement?

It was recently updated to RQ6:  http://www.lulu.com/shop/paolo-guccione/stupor-mundi/paperback/product-21733729.html

Arrived a couple days ago - west coast USA.  Looks great!

Ooooh! 

Bump to check in on print copies.  Not a rush!  Just curious. 

Any reason why the first volume omnibus isn't available for POD but the second volume is?

Curious why the preview shows this as Renaissance Adventures #6, when that was already noted for The Case Of The Missing Professor.

No no - it LISTS for $100 at Amazon.  I can list a book for any price I want.  That has no bearing on its value, unless it sells for that price.

Actual price for a Superworld box set - $20-40.

Hackmaster does this for opposed skill rolls.  We converted all skill rolls to work this way for consistency.

The other part of the confusion is that the BRP descendents share more than just a d100 (or d%) mechanic.  Plenty of games use percentiles for the skill system or some other aspect, but if they're also class & level based, or don't have mechanics like SIZ, they're probably not BRP related, or so altered as to be VERY distant cousins.  If you want to make a list of who's in the BRP family, we could do that, but it has been hashed out pretty well before.

Is this different from the previous versions in any way?
