Interesting, looks like the link to the store page doesn't work. Poking around a bit on his site, it looks like he's moved all his store operations over to shopify - here is the link for Nordlondr Ovinabokin.

I'll note it's taking some time for the books to get here, so if you need it anytime soon, you'll want to go with either PDF Only or Book+PDF.

EDIT: Whoops, double ninja'd. Oh well.

My old store was, in a word, wretched. The new one not only has a bunch of cool stuff below the waterline that only I care about (but which are quite nice), it's blazing fast relative to my old one. So buying stuff from Gaming Ballistic is way, way more fun than getting a long, slow root canal.

So, here's the deal with the books. They have finally arrived in port and I was informed yesterday that (good news!) they have been unloaded from the ship, but (bad news) I know this because of being "randomly selected" by CBP for cargo inspection. That ... takes however long it takes, apparently. Once they decide that the Bestiary books are not a shiny bomb casing filled with used pinball machine parts, they'll hopefully spend roughly a day on the railway from NYC to Baltimore, at which point they'll meet up with about 400 lbs of other stuff and all the domestic orders will begin fulfillment.

Any physical orders - either physical + PDF or physical-only - placed between now and then will go out with the first wave of Kickstarter books.

Hope that helps! If you want to see the Table of Contents, please check out this post on my blog, which also has the links fixed to point to the new shopify store just in case you fee like clicking!

I can also highly recommend the Nordlondr Ovinaboki - I have both the PDF and the physical book (received in Australia a few weeks ago, very happy). And also the VTT pack coming in due course, and the token pack and so on. Really good stuff :-)

I only have the PDF, but this book is all forms of awesome and has become a primary reference for me in building out gribblies in my never-ending project.

Downloaded, I love the layout. Clean, simple, and easy to follow.

This is great, the thing that turns off my friends about GURPS is the old hard to read 80's layout. This presentation is something I we'll be excited to show then tomorrow. Plus it covers somany great things I wanted.

Thank you again for the recommendation.

I am looking at the rest of the material. I like the style and layout of the product enough we may grab the rest of the Dungeon Fantasy line.

Nordlond Bestiary USA Fulfillment Starts Tomorrow


I hesitated to give updates up until this one, because things were so very chaotic.

But the pallet of books has finally arrived at the fulfillment center. My contractor-partner there confirms that the pallet and boxes look to be un-spoiled (you have to say that like Saruman, you see) and that the books have been unloaded and brought into the warehouse.

Fulfillment starts tomorrow.

It’s about freakin’ time.

And there was much rejoicing. Errr... will be, once it shows up on my porch.
