GURPS Magic
Why is it that there is no physical books of GURPS Magic available? I know, because it's out of print, but since there is other fantasy products still in print, Banestorm for example, why isn't SJG printing Magic again? Or at least offer a Print on Demand-service?
How am I supposed to work Magic otherwise? Use the magic in Basic set. What if that isn't good enough? What if I want the full spectre of Magic? And no, I don't want the PDF, I want it physical. |

Re: GURPS Magic
I can't speak for SJGames, obviously, but one thing you can do is print the PDF. There are services that will bind it nicely for you and as I understand it, you are allowed to have one such copy made for you per copy of the PDF that you bought.

Re: GURPS Magic
Have you tried eBay or RPG Geek for second hand copies?

SJ Games hasn't partnered with anyone for POD services (yes, it would be nifty if they did), but they explicitly grant permission for you to buy the PDF and get a POD service to print it for you.

Re: GURPS Magic
Amazon says about 60$ for wither hardback or softcover.

An interesting coincidence, as I just checked at lulu.com; their website quoted $59.01 for a letter-size full-color 256-page casewrap hardback. |

Re: GURPS Magic
At a time. There's no reason why you can't throw out your used up printout and make a fresher one.

Re: GURPS Magic
It's about a half that if you go with B&W. Less than $10 if you go with soft-cover B&W.

Re: GURPS Magic
I keep having problems with Lulu. The system flat-out refuses to accept the PDFs I provide, and the only way to get support (or even to know what the error is that their system is throwing) requires registering on the forum. That's a ridiculously poor way to handle customer support.
