Been looking forward to this for several years now.
The playtest was interesting, though doubt I contributed enough to count. Buying it in a week or two to see if I get a comp copy first, was embarrassed buying another supplement earlier this year only to get a comp copy a few days later.

Nice! I just bought a copy and based on a quick skim it looks quite useful not just for high-tech campaigns but also lower-tech ones with a significant wilderness component. I think it may be the first place I've seen things like clear rules for things like seeing through dense vegetation.

The preview download has the page that lists those who got playtest credit, so if the policy of all named playtesters getting a comp copy hasn't changed, you should be able to see if you will receive one or not without waiting a couple of weeks.

Not always accurate, I got one comp where my name was left out. But thanks for the help.

There are technical reasons with the new storefront that have made comps a bit more challenging for now, and thus take longer (although a fix is in the works).

However, generally (at least in these PDF projects) folks listed in the credits should also be playtesters and thus get comp copies. So if you're listed in the credits and didn't get a copy, please hold tight for a week or so.

And if you didn't get listed in a credit that you otherwise might expect to be, please feel free to email me and I can investigate; we battle errata on all fronts.

OK, thanks Steven.
Good news on a fix being in the works. Its not only better to get our comps as fast as we did in the old store I am sure it would be far less of a hassle for you. Though your efforts are appreciated!

Faster comps would also make it easier for me to hype things I've playtested on here.

Note for non-USA'ians; as the print version of this book comes via Amazon's PoD system, it should generally be available from your local Amazon subsidiary. It's certainly on Amazon UK.
