As a subscriber of both, let me say thank you for your honesty and your forthrightness. I'll keep on giving you my money and buy your books. Thank you,
Jeff...
While I missed the RA Kickstarter, I am salivating at adding this stuff on for the Barakus Survey.
Would you mind saying who the printer is? I've been looking at options :)
Wow... makes me glad I've followed NG from the beginning and now FGG. That's something else.
And indeed - it's in my email! (Well, just the CD one so far, not the RA one. But, still!)
---
Now to maybe be a bit of an annoying clod:
Is it possible to use the coupon for shipping costs? It's sort of brutal for "overseas" shipping from the U.S. (that would be just to Canada, to be specific!), and I already pre-paid $16 for shipping CD1 & 2 and RA sub... (which, I suspect, is far too little).
Just curious... since it came in coupon form I'm guessing not (since it'll probably be a total hassle for you), and I totally understand, but I thought I'd ask...
Can we use the coupons with addons for the The Lost City of Barakus Kickstarter? I want to get the Desert of desolation in print and PDF as well as the maps and print Player's Guide.
Cannot use for shipping--we pay the post office, that being said, it can be used to get a free book for the shipping price:)
Ah, I remember you saying something along those lines a while ago in the past...
Thanks for the quick reply! I can now get something a lot cooler than "shipping"... /giddy/
That's good news. I bought the CD subscription and somehow only ever ended up retrieving the first file. I think it's just because I'm a scatterbrain and probably registered at the FGG multiple times with multiple email addresses, but the login I can remember shows no purchase history and no available downloads. So I figure I'll just wait for the dead tree copy to arrive rather than try to figure out what the heck I did.
I'm eager to read the rest though, looks like I'll have some PC's heading there probably september-ish. They're third level now.
Anyway if I get a coupon maybe I'll finally spring for ToHC. Wanted it for a looong time.
Probably a dumb question, do we add the amount for the extra books to our pledge or is that handled differently in the survey? So if I wanted Dunes of Desolation do I just take the price of the book and add that to my pledge on Kickstarter?
I think we add it in the survey so amazon doesn't jack our money? And we do add to the pledge for the add-ons unlocked by stretch goals? But don't take it from me, I'm not really sure.
Oh, and I guess one more question:
Is there an expiry date for the code?
^ Me too, RA and CD in PF and S&W.
So it sounds like if we are backers of Barakus and want Dunes of Desolation and have new store credit, we'd need to wait until it's listed on your website and order it there rather than adding it on via survey on Kickstarter, right? Thank you,
Jeff...
Thanks Bill.
What about buying at NTRPGCon?
Just ordered S&W Black Monastery (previously had PDF but got it printed here spiral so I could use it at the table easier) and another (3rd, or 4th if you count the previous hardback) S&W Core Book partially with my credit. Thanks Froggies :D
Ok, will do. I just know I never leave a con without an armload of books!
Another question:
If we have a subscription to BOTH CD and RA, will we get 2 emails (for $25 each, I presume)?
I ask less about getting the credit, but more for the horrible, horrible feeling that you guys have 'forgotten' (!) I've subscribed to RA... again... :D
I only got an email titled: "Cyclopean Deeps Subscription $25 Store Credit", but nothing for my RA subscription.
(Unless the email I got is actually for both...)
When will the compiled PDFs be available for subscribers?
Compiled PDFs? They haven't completed the 'normal' subscriptions of PDFs yet, have they? My FGG account only has up to #5 of both RA and CD (as of a 'test' download yesterday)...
I guess each sub of either RA or CD in PF or SW has a 12.50 'refund'/coupon. I have 4 subs and paid for four subs (RA+CD in PF+SW) and thus should get coupons amount x 4. I received (and used!) 2 x $25 coupons and Chris from support email said that was correct. So if you only have one sub, you should get $12.50.
Obviously FGG guys can correct me if I am wrong!
Arnwyn - The compiled PDFs will be given to subscribers with the newest subscriptions. We decided to save time in getting them out by simply including everything in the compilations.
Ah OK so it is $25 for each sub then? Well whenever I receive them I'll put them towards Sword of Air, so no rush for me!
Right I have been back in touch with Chris and he sorted the confusion, thanks again for great FGG customer service! You should get a $25 coupon for every sub. Not counting the second year of CD, cos that was priced correctly. If you haven't received that then I'd suggest you get in touch with FGG support

Woo! Thanks, Chuck!
If anyone has a question about their sub, go here:
Thanks for that! Doing so now.
should be $25 for each sub, so I had RA and CD in both PF and SW. I got $100 in coupons. Talk to FGG service they're great!

Just so everyone is in the loop with this:
CD S&W is at the printer, some advance physical copies should be available at NTRPGCon (in extremely limited numbers). Rest will go out when we get back.
CD PF is being re-edited. found some errors that almost slipped by, so go to final layout by next weekend.
RA Sub is almost finished being written. There are maybe 4-6 more rooms on one level, and an additional Wilderness Location to be placed, then map checks to make sure everything is there, then layout. Fingers crossed, by the end of the month. And just so no one thinks we've been sitting on our thumbs, we added about 50% more content with this re-write, so while I know it's terribly, terribly late, it's also, much, much bigger then it was in the separate installments.
In all, off the top of my head, there are Levels 1D (1 overland map, 1 dungeon map), Level 2C (covering 3 sections of maps, maybe 30+ rooms?), Level 3D (2 map sections, 20+ rooms?), Level 6? (dont remember the letter here, 1 map); the New Encounters chapter that people were luke-warm about has 4-5(?) added locations (including one creepy-ass swamp family; if you liked Nic Logue's Hook Mountain Massacre, these could be the spiritual neighbors of the Kreeg's; and Hecate's faithful finally make a more prominent appearance in the Troll Fens).
All in all, there is some really good stuff in here. Oh, and if you wanted a little more detail about the ties between Rappan Athuk and Tsar, we got you covered. :-)

Sound like a great update to me Skeeter!
Quick question(s), I know you frogs are swamped right now (?), but can you give me a rough page count for PF CD_2014 annual?
Also, like a few of use who now have the coupons that we cannot use for the KS I wanted to pick up the CD_2014 annual(also with my 7.5% discount from SOA KS) at FGG.com vs. getting in on the LCoB backerkit - do you guys have an eta on when it goes back up onto the FGG website?
I was going to add it to the LCoB backerkit (already have several add-ons there), but I figured I would do a second order at the website to make use of my credit and the CD annual would be a good pick-up.

I don't right now. Ill have it closer in a couple days, though. Please do not quote me, but I figure 160-180-ish? Im not sure what the finished S&W size came out as yet.

Without the d20 stat blocks? About 10 pages. ;)

So I checked the S&W pdf, and it weighs in at about 159 pages, counting the legal. We added a s-ton of stuff for optional S&W play, so Im going to figure that the PF version is like I said in the 160-180 page range when all finished.
Very excited Skeeter, thanks for the update.
Sooooo if CD SW is at the printers does that mean the PDF is not far away?
