:D I just got the Rogues in Remballo softcover today. It looks pretty good, although there are a couple of aspects of weirdness.
I didn't get any of the other books with it so the package was a tad anaemic, I expect they're forthcoming in a second shipment.
It is also a bit annoying since I did e-mail Bill and ask if I could get any of the old books with any of the 3 concurrent KS's - to minimise shipping costs & was told that wasn't possible since all the packages were full up. And then I get an International package with just a 28 page book in it. No wonder I've spent over $100 on shipping from FGG last year.

DSXMachina, the explanation I received from Krista was my main package somehow missed getting the Rogues of Remballo book in it. So they had to mail that separately. When I asked Bill if the two KS could be shipped together I was told he was afraid the orders would get messed up. So I suspect they are doing the best they can with what they have. I am just passing on what I know about it.

Well I asked more specifically about the Out of Print grab bags. Thank you for the information about the split shipments, I wouldn't have minded waiting for the RoR book. It's just very frustrating to have been told that shipping costs/space is too valuable to add to your order & then get a virtually empty box - especially after you watch it across the Atlantic for 1-2 weeks.

Well I got my Kingdom Death KS yesterday, so I've got that goodness to occupy my time until this arrives.
However has FGG released a good jpeg of the Akados region, since I'm trying to potentially do a map of their world after getting a bit bored with my Golarion one. (If I'm allowed to ask that is)

All mine arrived on Tuesday, except for Rogues of Remballo which arrived on Wednesday in its own shipment.
I feel sorry for the Frogs having to pay for the extra shipping on any Rogues of Remballos that got accidentally left out of main boxes. I hadn't even heard about it until Silverhair mentioned the reason behind it above and had assumed it was just my shipment.
They just sorted it at their own cost without a word.
They're a great combination of fantastic material, very good customer service and thin profit margins! Which makes me a bit nervous for them because it must be tough to run a side-business like that for so many years.
Here's hoping they keep going for a very long time to come.

In the "other products from frog God games" table - it includes some up and coming titles like Bards gate complete, the book of alchemy and a few more in the quests of doom series. It also lists which systems each book is for - slumbering tsar saga is listed as both PF and S&W. I'd heard that skeeter was working on a conversion and it sounds like it's now official. :)

Ok to anyone that actually has this - help me out.
I picked up the 'adventures in the borderlands' (because I'm a sucker for adventures) and the journey generator - because I thought that the second would be a good utility to help do some overland journeys.
What I found was a huge amount of information on factions and such that made the journey generator seem pretty useless for things outside of this particular campaign. Now I'm not really into factions to be honest, and I'm curious how much they play into the overall campaign book and if you have both (the campaign and journey generator) how well they mesh up.
I'm trying to decide if I should just pick up the rest of it.
