Default Df?

Does anyone know just how long the Dungeon Fantasy series is going for? Is there any possibility of it being compiled into a hardcover?

As long as it continues to sell, I suppose. Kromm has mentioned working on a DF4 and that there are proposals in from at least two potential other authors.

Nothing has been publically ruled either in or out, though Phil recently mentioned that he isn't wildly in favor of compilations.

I can't see DF stopping until sales go from "fairly nice" to "only 10 guys in a basement in Berzerkistan buy it."

... you know, of all the people I would not want to annoy, 10 guys living in one basement in Berzerkistan might actually be nearish the top of my list.

Just sayin' I don't want them camped out on MY doorstep.

For those of you (like me) who plan on binding all your DF series together in one volume (either hard or soft cover) I went through and put together a master index of all three volumes. That way I can stick that in the back the compilation. I sent the file to Collective Restraint on Sunday, and he said he'd put it up on his site sometime this week for all the world to have. I know he has been busy though, but it will get out to you guys.

Wait.

He's going to be putting up a compilation of three books, that go for cash, for free, on his site?

Isn't there some legality issues here?

EDIT: Oh, I think I got it.

I r not tech savvy

So if sales start to slump, we just need to send one more person to Berzerkistan...

None in hardcover, and minimal in softcovers. The possibility of the individual projects seeing a POD release is good, though.
