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.

This looks like another situation like Action 2 and Underground Adventure where a book of extremely broad utility is published under a niche line.

How is Underground Adventures under a 'niche line'? As far as I can see it's not part of any particular line.

"Uses Guns" isn't exactly a niche line either.

It cuts out, at minimum, the Dungeon Fantasy crowd, which SJGames seems to believe is a significant market, along with a good deal of historical and fantasy gaming. Moreover, the original Tactical Shooting focused on realistic (or at least gritty) and hyperdetailed rules, which might lead players of a more cinematic/faster paced style to conclude that the line isn't for them. All of the above could in fact get good use out of large portions of the book, which at times reads like a general GURPS:Extreme Conditions shoved into the Tactical Shooting line (and I mean that as nothing but a compliment).
