smiorgan Posted March 23, 2023 Author Share Posted March 23, 2023 I hope it's based on the corrected PDF. Actually, I don't see why it shouldn't. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coronoides Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 The other recent announcement was a new edition of the core BRP released under ORC. The release of Magic World as a POD probably done to offer some support to BRP. Let's hope this BGB BRP revival is a success. Perhaps then we will get a new polished edition of Magic World. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickMiddleton Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 That's my hope... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick J. Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Glad to hear it. I really do hope it is the corrected copy, that’d be enough to make me buy it again in print for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDLeary Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) Per Nick, based on original printing, not cleaned up save for minor changes to support the new format. Even still, availability again is excellent news! SDLeary Edited March 24, 2023 by SDLeary 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaenor Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 I wish Chaosium well with this PoD and the Advanced Sorcery one too. Having these options for physical books is amazing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiorgan Posted April 16, 2023 Author Share Posted April 16, 2023 Did anyone buy it? Is it based on the latest PDF(*)? (*) The PDF currently on sale is marginally better than the original print run, with some of the typos and formatting issues corrected (not all of them, sadly). So, if the POD is based on it it will be a slightly better book than the 1st print run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, its based on the older PDF, NOT the revised PDF, so errors like critical chance still being a flat 01-05 rather than 1/20th of skill are still present in the printed version. 😞 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for sparing me the painful experiment (I was tempted to check). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
