I see.

I'm going to speculate that for many boardgames, game books and so on the highest statisical amount of actual times played for each copy sold is less than ten.

No, I'm just kidding.
You were starting to worry me! :) We'll see how delivery works for Europe.

Mine was waiting for me last night when I got home from work! Opening the package was like Christmas.

I just have to say WOW. From the visual production values to the layouts, writing, and overall quality, I have to say this exceeded my expectations. I look forward to more in the line, as well as future box sets for other genres.

Excellent job SJG! You guys rock!

Yes, it's very well done.

That GM screen is something else! No flimsy cardstock for DFRPG. :)

All of the books are very nicely done as well.

Unfortunately, my DFRPG box suffered some damage along its route to me and one of the corners got crushed and broken. I've asked orders@warehouse23.com about it, but I doubt they have any spare boxes lying around. We'll see.

The only production issue I have is the lack of text on the spine of the Companion and on How to be a GURPS GM. Both have ample space for it, based on previous releases by SJG which have spine text and are much thinner volumes. A puzzling choice.

Maybe a POD issue?


I love the maps! If SJ Games released more maps and cardboard heroes that could be used in any Fantasy Role Playing game, I think there is a big market for that.

I received my package yesterday and filmed an unboxing. If anyone still waiting for their's wants to see what's inside, you can check the video out at my YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/HF9GjEWxQsU.

We'll review the project's numbers later this year after the game ships to stores. The best way to get more GURPS material like this and a second box? Tell all of your friends and drive us to sell every copy of the game before December 31, 2017.

True, it could be an issue with Amazon CreateSpace. One of the compromises...
