lawrence.whitaker Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 Your order is being despatched from Lulu, and a whole bunch of books have just gone out. With your order details I can check to see if you're among them and forward your tracking #. 1 Quote The Design Mechanism: Publishers of Mythras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svensson Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I'm probably gonna pick this up for my 'sort-of Atlantis' campaign. In my campaign-canon, the Fertile Crescent and Egypt are 'Atalan's' competitors for influence and are the only peoples they're in contact with that aren't considered barbarians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason when their books enter the FedEx chain, it's always 2-3 weeks before I see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Wulfraed Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I had one order where it only took 2 days to go from shipping origin to Detroit. It then spent over 5 days going from the mouth of the postal system to the other end, where it then took one day to go from Detroit to Grand Rapids (and hence to Lowell for delivery).

Well this is a 'teach my nieces gaming' campaign, so I can't get too meta-plot with it. I'm presenting the Atalans as the most advanced race on Earth. They have very positive things about them... they practice excellent hygiene for the age, they don't keep slaves [but they do indenture war captives for a decade before releasing them], women have full equality, and they're not imperialistic conquerors. But they're also VERY prideful. They consider all other cultures to be barbarians, though they do give credit to the efforts of Egyptians and Babylon. But everyone else can go kick rocks... oh, the Atalans will trade with them and trade fairly but they have little actual respect for them. To a certain extent, I imagine them to have the Victorian British attitude about 'fuzzy wuzzy', patronizing, condescending, and generalized ['Oh, all those Hesperians are like that...'] But I need some source material to work with in the Land of the Ziggurats, and something that is RQ /BRP centric will be very helpful! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill the barbarian Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Ooh, and my book finally arrived. Thanks TDM, looks great! 3 Quote ... remember, with a TARDIS, one is never late for breakfast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
