I had a little free time in October, so I dug out the print copies I had of the S&W Core Rules. Turned out that I only had a couple of printings (a 2nd printing hardback and a 3rd printing soft cover that we did under Black Blade). So I played around with the archived pdfs and filled out my Core Rules copies using Lulu to print the others. (left to right) 1st print hardback, 2nd print hardback, 3rd print Black Blade Publishing soft cover, 3rd print hardback, 4th print hardback: photos.app.goo.gl/9hA2pmtVKzWLAkXWA |

I still have my original softcover of the 1st, and hardback of 2nd, as well as a hardcover 4th. Never got the Black Blade softcover as I was waiting for them to make a hardcover available and that never happened. I have the pdf though.
It’s my fave version of Core. If I knew how (I always bumble and screw it up), I’d add a page to the pdf with 4th printing thief and get a Lulu hardback of that.

Never got the Black Blade softcover as I was waiting for them to make a hardcover available and that never happened. I have the pdf though. Yeah, we didn’t have the S&W: Core Rules publishing license very long. 12-15 months was the extent of it before the license moved to Frog God. (I’m one of the 2 principals in Black Blade, along with Allan “Grodog” Grohe.) But with Lulu and a little layout voodoo, it is possible to make these custom editions, such as the 1st and 3rd print hardbacks. I may have to tweak the 3rd print cover to add the Black Blade Publishing logo....and make a 3rd print Black Blade hardback. It’s my fave version of Core. If I knew how (I always bumble and screw it up), I’d add a page to the pdf with 4th printing thief and get a Lulu hardback of that. If you’re really interested in doing this, I could help you get the files all updated and set up on Lulu, so you could order it yourself. Same goes for printing a 3rd print hardback. If you’re interested, I could help you get it set up. It’s my fave version of Core. If I knew how (I always bumble and screw it up), I’d add a page to the pdf with 4th printing thief and get a Lulu hardback of that. I’m working on something similar, tho mine is for the various S&W:WB versions of the game. One of the Knockspell issues had 3 or 4 thief variants. I’m pulling those articles into a separate file, cleaning up the layout, formatting it as an 8.5 x 5.5 booklet, and will have a White Box supplement with several thief variants. I’ve even put together a draft cover. But the booklet is a work in progress. |
