Holee cr...


Long Live E-Books!

E-books and a laptop cheaper and lighter in the long run.

The e-books themselves are generally cheaper, and you won't have to pay doctor/chiroptractor bills for having to carry around 500+ page books!

And the upcoming Game of Thrones RPG is going to top 500, and the limited edition of that may top 600.

And yet it still pales in comparison to any of the actual novels.

I think, wordcount-wise, that it will be larger than one of the novels.

[And it only covers the first one ....]

It may be just me but I love a rule book with 350+ pages. If I am going slap down 30 bucks for a book it better have a lot of content. I always feel gipped if it doesn't. I think SG1 ran like $40 (us). But a lot of those pages were just filler, and episode guide I think.

That's my take too. Mind you SR3 isn't the only RPG core rule book to have what i'd consider filler, so they aren't exactly alone there. What i thought was that SR3 BBB text wasn't as concise as it could have been. Too many extra words and not enough substance.
