Danger Will Robinson, Danger! My arms are flailing wildly! I'm looking forward to Tactical Shooting. How much brass was expended in the making of the book?

Over the lifetimes of the author and playtesters? Or just during writing and playtesting?

I reckon about 10,000 rounds, all calibres, just by the author. I had a LOT of fun writing this.

Cheers

I think Hans pretty much answered it for me. @:-)

Well done another correct pick.

You could probably put the Space Gamer predictions in too if you wanted to.

Ah, but that's just because we have so many other amazing books that are itching to get out first! And look on the bright side -- it's looking like the MH line will be coming out roughly around the same time of the year as Horror, which is about as close to Perfect Supplement Synergy as is possible! Horror and Monster Hunters want to be together, trust me. Don't deny this OTP! :)

Pardon me if this has been answered elsewhere... I take it that the MH titles will be released all at once or in short succession?

Current plan is to release one after the other, similar to how the Low-Tech Companions were handled.

Pragmatic · 01-29-2011, 12:43 PM

Think of it this way:

If they release them all at once, they have to wait for the last one to be completed before they can start recouping their money. If one of them hits a snag, that could mean some lean months.

Better to release them ASAP (when ready... it is SJ Games, after all...) and start getting some money, right?
