In the Labyrinth PDF
 

So some of my players now want copies of the rules. I was going to point them at Warehouse23 to pick up a pdf, but I don't see it in the warehouse. Can you not buy a copy of the rules in pdf?

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

We've not offered the PDF for sale outside of Kickstarter and BackerKit. We will in the future, certainly, but not at this time.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

That being said, when I go to the Pre-order page for Decks of Destiny, the PDF is there as an add-on. So while it's not on sale outside of KS and Backerkit, it is, in fact, on sale right now on Backerkit. Scroll down about halfway.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

Yep, but see this re: "shipping costs."

Zero for a PDF?

Ah: http://forums.sjgames.com/showpost.p...92&postcount=9

This is one of the things that is irksome about Backerkit. It's possible to exempt PDFs from such fees, but it's a VERY time-consuming work-around, with multiple duplicate shipping profiles that are extremely error-prone. I ran into this myself with 'base shipping fees,' and again, I found away around it after several DAYS of detailed work. Even then, I was trusting a few things would average out and come out about right (they did).

Gaming Ballistic now has a new product, the BackerKit Kit. Available now for your fellow Kickstarters to save them having to figure out how to do it themselves.

Can you start a Kickstarter to fix Kickstarter?

(What happens if you tell it to put in a shipping cost of -$8 for a PDF to add to the base $8 shipping cost? Probably too easy; they would have saved you from accidentally putting in negative shipping costs already...)

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

Humm...even if I were willing to ask my players to pay an extra $8 for the benefit of buying a pdf, I didn't see an option for just the In The Labyrinth book.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

I imagine the ITL PDF will eventually make its way onto Warehouse 23 as a standalone product. The adventures are already there in digital form, as is the ITL hardcopy. They just need to do whatever backend work is needed to add that book / digital product, as with the first Hexagram issue.

While you can buy all sorts of stuff as addons to Kickstarters, I doubt that's SJG's intended method for continuing sales after a KS closes. It's just a bonus as long as they're rolling out more KS campaigns for additional products.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

That may be but I think not offering the rulebook separately to players who want just a copy of that is a missed opportunity. Only one person at the table needs the components that come in the Legacy Edition. Everyone doesn't need a copy of Melee, Wizard, Tolenkar's lair, etc to be a player in a TFT campaign. My player's want the rulebook but they use my components to play.

Thanks for the help!

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

A couple of days ago, I was actually looking for a digital copy of Melee & Wizard, to go with my double box set. I noticed the In the Labyrinth PDF, then I poked around a little more and noticed the Legacy Edition PDF. IMO, a much better deal than buying only the ITL file. So I bought that one instead.

US$35 for all those books is just insane, and I'm glad I bought it before you came to your senses. ;)

I'll probably still buy a physical copy of the Death Test & Death Test 2 box set when it hits my FLGS though.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

If it isn’t there, odds are that it never will be. That shipped to distributors months ago. In today’s environment, that makes it old and unlikely to be ordered again by the stores.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

Still on w23 though: http://www.warehouse23.com/products/...d-death-test-2

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

Even though I have all the books to date, some more than one, I think the ability to "search" a PDF to find something a bit obscure is very valuable.

I just might order that $35 pdf.

Re: In the Labyrinth PDF
 

The PDF search is super-useful for finding rules quickly.

Also, I've been collecting games and books for more than 45 years now. I'm running out of room for more physical books. :(
