Diana Probst 157 Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Could it perhaps also have been updated with a splendid map, Nick? tell us more! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted May 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 What, this little thing? No, that would be ridiculous. Profound thanks to Andre Jarosch, Michael O'Brien and Darya Makarava, for all sorts of reasons. Not forgetting the indefatigable Goscinny & Uderzo: "These Lunars are crazy!" 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Updated on 9 June to include Valley of Plenty, and retitled as the index now covers HeroQuest as well as RuneQuest. NB: if there's a glut of HeroQuest content, I may have to stop covering both systems and let someone who plays HQ take up the slack: let's see how it goes.

Now 20 pages, still only 50 cents. The updated version will be in your DriveThruRPG library (top right menu bar when you're logged in).

Aprewett 46 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) I could get it to download, must be so popular it’s jammed up the system... ‘couldn’t- auto correct I missed. Edited June 22, 2020 by Aprewett Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry about that, @Aprewett -- DriveThruRPG seems to be flaky when a title has recently been updated. If you still can't download it later today (and you've tried flushing your browser cache, etc.), I suggest you contact their customer services people using the big red "Contact Us" button at the bottom of every web page. They'll sort you out: they're dead good. (I've heard from one other buyer who had a similar issue just after a previous update, and I believe that was also quickly sorted out -- at least, I've not heard back!) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) Updated on 26 June to include Secrets of Dorastor ($25.00 for 259 pages: that's more like it!) Edited June 26, 2020 by Nick Brooke 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 OK, here's the thing. You have probably noticed that the Jonstown Compendium is doing rather well, which makes it challenging to keep this index completely up to date. So from now on I have decided to be less... pernickety about updating older products in the index. I will do my best to keep information about reviews, ratings and best-seller medals updated for the 16 Hottest and 16 Newest titles on the webstore every time I refresh the index: this usually happens shortly after a new title is released. Although information for older products may become dated (since I won’t be checking it as often), I will always be happy to update these or other details if an author contacts me and asks for a change – so if one of your titles goes Copper, Silver or Electrum, or gets a new review (on DriveThru or elsewhere), or picks up more five-star ratings, and you’d like that to be reflected in the index, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) Blank page in one version (I hope that's gone now), and a nicer map at the back (check the circles w/ drop-shadows and in the key). Nothing major. -- Oh, also I'm trying to leave the current and previous versions up all the time, I'm getting the impression DTRPG isn't reliable if you take an old file down after uploading a new one and some customers get caught betwixt and between. Better to avoid that. Edited June 26, 2020 by Nick Brooke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2020 The blank page was because MS Word in its wisdom decided I wanted an "Section Break (Next Even Page)" instead of a "Section Break (Next Page)," for no particularly good reason. No great harm in a digital-only project, but worth nailing. The map upgrade was because the way I used to manage it was getting irritating, and I decided it was worth moving the whole thing into one file at my end, despite a slight speed-bump while setting it up. All behind-the-scenes crap, but I like the new version much better. Behold! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, the joy of working with MS Word! I know that well.... 1 hour ago, Nick Brooke said: All behind-the-scenes crap, but I like the new version much better. Behold! All looking good! Btw, I for one am finding this a very useful short guide to the ever-growing JC content. Your thoughts regarding new vs. older content make sense. I definitely like having a quick glance at it to see what fits where and whether something I haven't acquired yet makes sense or not to get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Brooke 1,757 Posted June 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 Updated on 29 June to include The Rostakori Clan, a nasty independent war clan of bad neighbours who worship Orlanth's violent and brutal nephews, the children of Valind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
