SilverSeraph Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Hi all. Does anyone know why Book of Uther and Book of the Warlord are offered in color POD, but Book of the Estate, Book of Battle 2E, and Book of Sires are only available in B&W? I know it's just red lettering in certain places, but it would be nice to be able to get them all in the best format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippyHippy Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 They were printed at a later date? Moreover, it won’t be a priority for Chaosium to fix, seeing as they have committed to a new edition and a line of supplements to replace previous editions’ releases.

Unless I'm misunderstanding the meaning of print on demand, POD titles were not printed at a later date. The pdfs you get with these titles are in color. It doesn't seem like it would be an extensive thing to give the POD title an option to have it printed in color for those who want it despite a new edition coming soon. The existence of a new edition may even spur curiosity in new customers to buy the older books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it is easier to have someone printing in B&W than in color. If there are other KAP titles that offer printing in color, then so much for that guess.

Would love to hear from Chaosium on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing POD in color for some of these titles is on our list. Unfortunately, they are not a priority, especially due to their very low sales volume. 1 Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints - Chaosium, Inc.
