So it's out in UK shops next week. Just wondering when I can expect my print copy. I'm in the UK but have yet to get any print adventures? Annoyed? Just a bit...after all these delays seems the priority is the shops rather then the Kickstarter backers.

This Kickstarter is a freaking trainwreck, and I am not even exaggerating. No personal disrespect to Mr Adams, but this is why fans should stay fans, and not publishers.

Now, it seems like Mr Adams dealt with more than a fair share of personal tragedies this year, but even so, I have to say, this project lacked some fundamental diligence in planning.

Frankly, if Mr Adams wasn't who he is, I would interpret his unprofessional behavior as fraudulent.

I know we have this culture among OSR- and micropublishers, that we honor the effort, and don't criticize neither bad conduct nor bad product quality, but frankly, this is plain insolent behavior.


Regardless how this turns out, at this point, I will never take my money to BHP again.

i'm compare train wreck with tons and tons of wreckage--damage to land and maybe chemical leaks--and loss of life to a simple printing project but i'm NOT exagerating!!

Too bad the kickstarter was a trainwreck - appendix N adventures sound like a brilliant idea.

I keep seeing this at my local shop and hoping to come home to something in my mailbox. So far, no such luck... As a subscriber, not a kickstarter backer, I have literally zero idea what is going on with my subscription at this point.

Yeah, well, I'm a backer and I've got bupkus in print. I have several PDFs, but I backed it for the print versions. This trainwreck is quickly becoming a Superfund site. . .

March. Nothing so far.
