My copies of Excavator Monthly Compendium just arrived!

I've published a lot of books, both for Outland Arts as well as many other authors and companies, and yet never fail to get excited when I get to open up a box and hold a new tome for the first time! Just minutes ago I got a shipment of 5 EM Compendiums and finally got to look over the creation that I've only seen as a digital file in a layout program... or a pdf. Of course I have physical copies of the magazines, but to have them all in one book is important to me and the way I game master. Think I'll try and roll up some assorted characters using the PC generation vat tonight, maybe post them on the forum, too.

 Regards,
Will

Hi all,

 Just thought I'd post here to let you know that Drivethrurpg.com and rpgnow.com are having their Christmas in January sale from the 23rd to the 30th of July. All our PDFs are 25% off.

In other news, we are working hard on The Crossroads Region Gazetteer, and oh my God its going to be about 420 pages once all the art and maps are put in!  I am afraid that we are looking at a release day of late September or early October on this one. Of course, our 25mm or 28mm TME paper miniatures will start coming out soon so there will be some new content every month. Our first set will be 25 player characters, with both full color and ink variants in each set.

 Happy gaming and stay cool out there,
Will
