GURPS On Demand

Forgive me, perhaps I have my naming conventions confused. I am talking about things like, Dungeon Fantasy 1: Adventurers etc.

Those are not available in print-on-demand. If things change, we'll make an announcement.

Yes, I was just wondering if it was a market share issue, or what?

Work required vs expected sales.

GURPS Blood Types and GURPS Dinosaurs are now a part of the program.

I bought GURPS Illuminati these days and I am waiting to arrive.

Meanwhile, a question: is there any chance that the other GURPS WWII books will be sold in POD? Like All the King's Men, Dogfaces or Return to Honor? I already bought the GURPS WWII Core Rulebook and Weird War II, but I would like to have the rest too.

I amwondeing if the 12 pdfs from the kickstarter will be bundled as PoD. I would happily pay for that.

Highly unlikely. They were not designed for that purpose.

[Say, it isn't that bad!]

Also, more and more people are moving towards e-books. As one friend once joked when I asked how much their game books weighed, ~"500 grams." Kind of regretting buying paper books as long as I did, myself (up to this year).

Personally still prefer hard copy... just don't find e-books as easy or pleasant to look through. I know it is a trend towards it, and as you say on weigh alone it can be more convenient, but there are things I have bought on the On Demand service I would likely never have bothered with buying a digital version. Usually only get a digital version of something if hard copies are not available.

I think I am ok with digital copies if I don't expect to refer to it frequently, but if it is something I expect to crack out repeatedly I want the physical book.
