Default Ogre Miniatures Reprint?

Hello,

Are there any plans for a reprint of the hardcopy of Ogre Miniatures Second Edition? I know it's available in PDF but I kinda prefer the book version.

Thanks!

Scott

I don't think we've sold all of the inventory. I'll look into it.

A reprint in hardcover is unlikely . . . unless you have a thousand friends who want a copy. Then we can talk.

Thanks for the reply, Phil. Don't worry about it though. I know you have lots to do. I'll go ahead and get the PDF.

Thanks again!

I printed the PDF and put the pages in sheet protectors in a 1” ring binder. Saves wear and tear on the hardcover. It also lies flatter on the table.

I don't know the business side of it, but would it be a viable candidate for softcover print-on-demand?

Seems like that could be the best of both worlds. It wouldn't do the die-cut bits any good, but then you wouldn't have a pallet of books sitting in the warehouse until a fire sale [or an actual fire].

Warehouse23 shows out of stock. I keep looking on ebay for it, but love the idea of getting it from you.

I missed out on the 1st print run...

I really want at least 1 copy of the 3D chipboard units.
Including those made it something special...

...that said, how about making it special in two ways:

Offer a Softcover reprint (not on demand or if you must) then also a physical Softcover copy we can order. I would want mine already bound and finished quality.

Offer the 3D chipboard sheets separately.

This would allow people to order as many 3D Chipboard sheets as they want that missed out, and allow those that already have a copy of OM to get more 3D Chipboard sheets if wanted.

Let's wait to see what the team reports. Everyone has been extra busy lately; it will take a little time to check inventory and decide whether or not we have any copies remaining to sell.

We do have some copies, but not in the Austin warehouse. We're working on shifting some inventory to Warehouse 23 so that we can offer the book for sale.

It will take some time. We'll make an announcement when the book is available.

...are any of the 3D chipboard sheets going to be available with the books or is this book only?
