Shadowrun - Seattle 2072 (limited to ~50/day) Does that mean we can expect to maybe be getting a PDF format of this Soon™? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/twirl.gif) |

There is no PDF, only Zul.
My best guess is that it is on someone's "to-do" list. The question of whether it happens in the next 24 hours before everyone boards their travel method of choice and heads to GenCon is unclear. Adam has said that the office is pretty much shutting down for the week tomorrow afternoon. |

What about SR4A? Will it be there? Will there be limited editions?
I'm coming in Friday afternoon and leaving Sunday morning, so I'm hoping to not have to bumrush Catalyst and WotC this year... |

Where is Seattle 2072 coming from? I never saw it on a upcoming list. Not complaining mind you, just curious.

Oh, and what about the SR dice? Will they be limited too? While Dave did not take my advice on the bright pink or sparkly purple dice, he did take my 3rd suggestion, so there will be special SR dice at GenCon too (and tee-shirts! don't forget the teeshirts!).

I insist on this swag being made available in germany too! >o< And I insist that an English translation of Die 6. Welt gets published. Until then, quit yer bellyaching about US Shadowrun fans getting more perks than the German ones do, because you've got your little exclusives too. |

QUOTE And I insist that an English translation of Die 6. Welt gets published. All for it. For us non native english speakers it can get a bit frustratingly complicated, trying to piece together information in some cases. Especially, if you have sources in both languages and the translation gets in between . . But a book is a book, and Shirts and Dice are Shirts and Dice <.< |

I gave up on waiting for (sometimes suffering from a crappy translation) german versions on sourcebooks a long time ago. And the pieces we get as an extra in the german books are hardly worth the waiting, i.e. the poorly written new clothing stuff in Arsenal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohplease.gif)

Just a quick update... None of the books besides Eclipse Phase have been limited thus far. I think CGL managed to get a few more copies than expected to the show. However, they are expecting to sell out of most of them. Eclipse Phase sold all 25 copies yesterday in under 5 minutes.
Also, there's an Ares T-Shirt this year ( don't remember the slogan offhand, I have pics though) and "Ares Shadowrun Dice", which are beautiful. Red and Blue swirly dice, with gold pips and gold SR "S" Logo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Pics, hoever, will have to wait till I'm home. |

Saving Runners Toolkit for x-mas? ;P indeed, whats the story on this? i dont see it on any of the upcoming products pages, and havent heard it mentioned in a while. I had been anticipating this much more than any other upcoming SR publication, and would be pretty sad if it has been dropped. |

An Ares t-shirt, on the one year I can't make it. Figures. Yeah. I've been to something like the last six or seven GenCons, Christ has it really been that many?, and the one year I can't attend is the anniversary year for Shadowrun and Battletech and when they've got the Ares t-shirts for sale. |

There may be some shirts available through the Battlecorps sight once the crew gets back from the con, dunno.
Oh, and the slogan? "Business is Booming!" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Awesome!! Is it just the Ares logo or is there other artwork? Ares logo on the front (shirt-pocket sized), back is similar with the "Business is Booming!" slogan. I got it at GenCon, I could NOT possibly say no to this one. It's great! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
