TrvShane Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 This is my favourite of the covers so far. It's nicely grounded in the world and really pulls me in. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squaredeal Sten Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Rumor ( https://godlearners.com/journal-of-runic-studies-30/#Grab_Your_Updated_PDFs ) has it that as lf 1/10/2022 CE there is an updated / corrected PDF. If that is so, how do those of us who got the 1.0 version download the 1.01 version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you got it from DriveThru, it’s automatically updated at the server end, either in your onebookshelf app (get it, it’s great!) and synching, or by downloading it again from the store.

No, I bought it direct from Chaosium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you dig down the layers you get to where the PDF(s) are listed. Should be a red square with white arrow -- click it to get to the download page. Then click on the book filename to actually download... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted February 28 Report Share Posted February 28 (edited) Spot the problem here: Two versions of the Weapons & Equipment PDF, one I downloaded in December, and another one that I downloaded today. It seems it was updated during January, but my order details at chaosium.com label the last update to my order as 10 Dec 2021. Yet when I download the PDF now it's the new January 2022 version. Page 61 of the December version used to show a "Spiked Staff" above the Maul, as posted out by someone else here in a now-hidden post in the Q&A thread. In the January version, the title of this item has been corrected to "Two-handed mace", as well as the "Troll maul" changing to "Troll-made maul". Just pointing out that there seems to be a version numbering issue here, and possibly an issue updating the orders list (the date normally changes when a newer PDF is uploaded IIRC). Some people here might be lacking this latest update. Edited February 28 by Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantean Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Finally had my copy printed out with high quality glossy print and bound at the printers. Absolutely fantastic addition to the rules set! Filled some large gaps in game mechanics and now I won’t have to sift through multiple versions during games anymore. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOB Posted May 14 Author Report Share Posted May 14 Our Polish printer has sent over an advance copy of RuneQuest: Weapons & Equipment — looking good! Remember, the PDF version is available now; get the cost of the PDF off your purchase of the 128 page full color hardback when it is out, mid year! 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svensson Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 Looking very forward to my dead tree version. RQWE has been a very valuable addition to my game group even as a pdf, but I've found that most gamers at the table still prefer physical references to hand around.
