Ravenheart87 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 It's a pity it's not available in the UK or EU webstore. I would gladly buy the book, but not with $55 shipping fee. 3 Quote Wielder of the Vorpal Mace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDLeary Of course you could then just wait until Chaosium runs out of them then re-sell on eBay or some other venue and likely recoup most of your loss, or even make a small profit.

fieldworking Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Out of stock again, as far as I can tell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldworking Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) And, as I just noticed this morning before ordering one, it's back in the US warehouse. Get 'em while they're hot! Update: they do seem to be print-on-demand, as fulfillment seems to be from Bang Printing. Edited November 17, 2022 by fieldworking Update about fulfillment.

"Bang Printing" is (I think) also the Chaosium warehouse/fulfillment/shipping partner. I bet @Dustin O'Chaosium is the right tag, here ... ? Is the BGB softcover being POD'ed by Bang, or are they simply the warehouse/shipper?

fieldworking Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I'm happy to see print copies available either way! Looking forward to having a copy at the table to flip through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill the barbarian Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 It is a good read, from a game point of view and from a nostalgic point of view as well! Quote ... remember, with a TARDIS, one is never late for breakfast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldworking Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I don't regret getting the BGB at all. I've already decided to implement one of the options in my RQG game: spending MP to re-roll or improve success levels. It has helped keep up player morale regarding an overly-long run of terrible, terrible rolls. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
