I'd like to get a copy of the latest issue, but its still not out in pdf (and its been more than 30 days). My Christmas wish is that you guys would change the pdf policy and make the pdf release sooner than 30 days. I have no interest in hard copies of gaming stuff these days for numerous reasons, and wish that the powers-that-be that publish Fight On! would stop punishing those who support the fanzine via digital purchase rather than hard copy purchase. I'd be glad to pay the same price for a pdf as the hard copy if it meant I didn't have to wait a month for it! Why does it matter how I want to read the magazine, as long as I pay for it? Anyways, Merry Christmas, and release the pdf already!  |

Yes, a PDF of FO! #3 would rock the proverbial hizzy.

www.lulu.com/content/5476331 Sorry for the delay. Meant to do this a couple of days ago. We appreciate the feedback and you are definitely not the only one who feels this way. We continue to review the policy and if we come up with a better way to incentivize print purchases we will certainly do it. More discussion on this later...

Here's an incentive: When you folks put together a 152 page magazine, it EMPTIES a brand new Canon PG-40 cartridge at about page 141..... Buying printed is cheaper, even with shipping, for me. ...It's just that I love to reprint parts, re-size, rearrange, "editor's syndrome"....
Another staggeringly awesome issue. Exalts and Huzzas to all involved.

I'd just like to point out that those of us who contribute get pdf copies when the print copy is released. So if you really can't wait...
;D

I'd really like to be able to get printed copies of the magazine. problem is I live in Canada. I just checked and to get all three issues printed and shipped would be 44$ plus tax . . .
It seems to be the perpetual problem with getting any kind of magazine or comic book here, they usually charge and rather surprisingly steep amount. You'd think there'd be a better way. Heck I thought Lulu might have set up printing in Canada too ... apparently not.
Problem is I really dislike .pdf's so I'll probably sit on the fence some more . . . sigh.

Thondor, please believe me. 44$ in US, Canadian or square Lanhkmar gold pieces is still the gaming bargain of the year. I bought the downloads and almost wore out my printer, and don't regret it a bit. Truth be known, it may be more economical to buy the three issues printed , than pay for downloads and ink.
