Hey guys, I've read over this supplement and I really like it. I'd love to offer it as a free pdf from our website and in print form, but it uses a great deal of WOTC's IP - and IP that they forbid anyone else from using such as Kuo-Toa, Carrion Crawler, Mind Flayer, etc). While I would really like to host it, print them and ship them, as a publisher, I cannot do it legally - but I wish I could.  |

The work is complete. The finished product may be downloaded in one of two formats, printing or reading, from this site: www.apolitical.info/carcosaIf you're asking about number of downloads? I haven't been tracking that but all the feedback I have received (so far, at least) has been positive. This is really good material by a variety of imaginative referees. The cool thing about it all is this: I didn't have to pick and choose what to include. Everything I came across was good quality material, the only limiting factor was space. I wanted to keep the page count low enough (final count: 64 pages) to make printing an option. If enough interest is expressed I will probably make a small print run, perhaps 20 copies, and sell them at cost plus shipping & handling. |

I would definitely be interested in a print booklet. If you decide to go ahead with this, please let us know.
Thanks!

Thanks dubeers for putting this all together, have an exalt! I would love to have this as a little booklet next to Supplement V and Obregon's Dishonor.
I found some problems with the pdf's though:
1. The fonts are not embedded in the pdf files. Which means that if you do not have them installed on your computer it looks like crap. There should be an option in your pdf creator to embed the fonts.
2. The stats for Ghouls and Giant Worms on page 47 are missing.

Thanks Burke.
#1) I'll embed those fonts. Actually, I thought I had but I have been working on several major projects lately and it is likely I changed that setting without realizing it.
#2) I will add that material.
There should be some updated files posted today.

burke: I am e-mailing you an updated Grimoire Reading Format. I had a bit of trouble finding a setting I thought would embed the fonts in PDFCreator, so I want to double-check before I make this an official release. Please let me know at your earliest convenience, here or by e-mail, if the first page looks like the image below. I chose this page because it uses all the fonts in the file: Arial, Castellar, and Tape Loop Viner Hand ITC.

I finally printed-out the Carcosan Grimoire, and then took it to the printer for them to staple and trim. I got it back today, and it looks awesome. The booklet stands proudly on my gaming shelf right next to Supplement V: CARCOSA. ;D

I will be reediting "The Carcosan Grimoire" in order to prepare it for publishing. Mainly, I'm going to change the fonts in order to improve imbedding, the material should not differ in any way from the current versions available at the links above.
Due to the number of pages, the book will probably be perfect bound, it is too large for saddle stitching (stapling). It will be at least a few weeks before the printed version it is available, I'll post more information here as I know more.

Whatever happened with this project? Did the Grimoire ever get printed somewhere?
