This is how I read the instruction too.

Currently it's not an option, but we are looking into that through Backerkit.

So if I pledge $70 for the box set and GM screen will I also receive PDFs of the 5 books & the GM screen panels? I assume so, but I can't see any mention of complimentary PDFs if you buy hardcopy.

The box set is a physical set of books, not intended to be created in PDF form at the moment. We don't have plans to produce this content in PDF form currently.

Why is that? After all, PDFs have been very good to GURPS over the years.

I would ask you to rethink that. I'm totally down for the physical box set, if I can get PDFs to read on my Kindle when I'm away from my bookshelves. I pretty much refuse to purchase books that don't come in PDF format these days.

We never say never, so things may change, just not currently in the plans.

that would be great - as would be the pdf versions of the box contents!

Glad to see someone caught that one. Musical Composition and Poetry may not be super useful in the dungeon itself, but they're great for spreading the tale of Lyndon Glibtongue and his group of slightly-less-awesome associates. :)

This is disappointing; I'll still back it, but the utility is *seriously* diminished without electronic copies. This feels like a backwards step.
