I’m a little disappointed there is no hardcover option.

I agree, Jason and mentioned it on Vincent’s announcement G+ post. Who knows, maybe it will be unlocked eventually?

I also mentioned it on the Kickstarter itself, and apparently quite a few others have as well. So who knows, it’s already funded, they might end up doing the Hardcover as a streatch goal.

Do you know what I think is going to be interesting about this campaign? The final number of backers. I think it will be as good a measure as anything we have as to how truly large the indie RPG space is. Obviously, it won’t be a perfect measure (or even a good measure) but it should give us a solid hint of how big (or small) this market is. Because if there is any book that can unite this segment of the hobby, it’s AW 2E.

Good point, Jason. That will be a cool figure to see.

Andrew Medeiros I’m afraid it may be slightly depressing, but I’m still deeply fascinated. We probably won’t have anything like this come around for awhile.
