Paypal is the only payment method currently available to me via my Bigcartel store, but if you can do bank transfer, I'll be happy to work something out. Please send an e-mail to beyond[DOT]fomalhaut[AT]gmail[DOT]com with what you need, and I'll send you an invoice.Melanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165894144553629675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-65662772699154592152018-06-08T17:35:49.824+02:002018-06-08T17:35:49.824+02:00Hello, very glad to see you have some actual print...Hello, very glad to see you have some actual printed material out. Despite having downloaded all of your other modules and accesories I am pretty much old school and much prefer an actual printed version. I am happy to say that you are one of my all time favourite game designers and I particularly enjoy the mythological flavor combined with the gritty and violent atmosphere of your game material. Is there any way to purchase these items without having to go through Paypal?

EPT is my gold standard as game writing goes.<br /><br />Coincidentally, later issues from #03 on will start serialising the unpublished stuff from our City of Vultures campaign, which was half EPT homage (the rest of the influences coming from Steve Jackson's Sorcery!, Harold Lamb's Cossack stories, with a bit of Lankhmar thrown in). Putting it into print is one of the reasons I started the zine.Melanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165894144553629675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-65014284752348811422018-05-22T14:23:43.407+02:002018-05-22T14:23:43.407+02:00I`ve just been reading the complimentary PDF whils...I`ve just been reading the complimentary PDF whilst awaiting the print copy. Great fun and if there is an echo it is not of Fomalhaut in my case it is of those early years of playing Empire of the Petal Throne. I can offer no higher praise.

I misread where you said 'the cutting machine ... came in'<br /><br />Those things look like military grade hardware. I have used one in the city to trim boxes full of printed pdfs. They charge €1 per cut whether it is for one book or twenty. The second time I needed to use it I asked if they would trim some booklets with their *laser cutter* and the lad had to explain (laughing) that the laser was only a guide.Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165997449776226774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-50170179022807442502018-04-17T09:56:57.918+02:002018-04-17T09:56:57.918+02:00Nah.

Turns out there are two kinds with no compromise in between: the puny home models which can barely cut through a few folded pieces of paper without messing up the edges, and the industrial behemoths which start at the size of a small table. My printer's paper cutter is a thing of beauty - the calibration is done with lasers and it could cut up your average heavy-set game designer in a few neat cuts - but it weighs half a ton, and costs more than a good car.Melanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07165894144553629675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-67273007328427324192018-04-16T22:11:27.123+02:002018-04-16T22:11:27.123+02:00Did you seriously buy a cutting machine or were yo...Did you seriously buy a cutting machine or were you kidding?Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165997449776226774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-15042118652132934712018-04-08T15:48:44.552+02:002018-04-08T15:48:44.552+02:00Perfect, looking forward to seeing a new Barbarian...Perfect, looking forward to seeing a new Barbarian KingGDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18307471337772636069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6188119851730922397.post-90577977227521079052018-04-02T09:56:16.392+02:002018-04-02T09:56:16.392+02:00Thanks, Gary!
