For those that missed the pre-order

[zeotter]

I finally got the big "L" that was stuck to my forehead off (not really but my wifes makeup does cover it up) from missing the pre-order.

When will we be able to order The Blossoms Are Falling?

[Thor Olavsrud]

I expect it will be soon, but I'm not sure exactly when. Luke is off to Seattle for Penny Arcade Expo, so it probably won't happen until he's back.

[zeotter]

Grrrrrooovvvvy, I will keep checking back. Thanks for the update :)

[trenton]

Is it going to be offered through indiepressrevolution.com, key20.com, or both?

[luke]

Both. It's up on IPR now. Key20 soon.

[robustyoungsoul]

Ordered immediately!

[trenton]

Is the PDF going to be available for purchase?

[Black Spectrum]

Blossoms and Jihad coming my way! Finally, I will be in the know with the cool kids. :)

[hellbender]

I hope it hits FRPGames at some point as well.

As an aside, Black Spectrum as in the Black Spectrum who makes the best Warhammer maps that there are?

[luke]

Neither book will be available in retail -- except for the Compleat Strategist. Otherwise, it's direct order only.

[hellbender]

Gotcha. Just purchased via IPR.

[khelek]

The Compleat Strat down here says they can't keep them in stock they sell so fast.

[luke]

Awesome! Tell them to re-up!

Yep, I'm the cartographer and not the theatre company. ;)

I love the Warhammer world, but Burning Wheel is my system of choice. [/derail]

You're a cartographer? Care to post some samples of your work (in another thread)?

I second that motion!

IPR is out of stock. Any idea when they will have more in?

[hellbender]

Damn, I ordered mine on the 30th and received a "your order has been processed" message. Those books are flying out the door.

When I was teaching English in Japan I picked up a few books, in Japanese and English, about myths and legends there and I hope I can implement these sources into a Blossoms game.

Key20 has a glitch and doesn't show the product either. Must be out as well.

Stupid me has been mostly offline and not paying attention for a while, while setting up a new PC and missed the pre-order. I want one too. :(

Key20 has product en route. I also ordered a reprint. Should be more in a week or so. The holiday, of course, slows things down.

[Durand Durand]

Thanks for the info, Luke. Jason at Key20 said they would be available some time in September. He might be willing to start a list of those desperate for a copy.

DD

[luke]

Yeah, I'm sorry for the delay. Post Gencon madness!

[Durand Durand]

...and has done so. What a nice fellow.

[ShotGlass]

Is there a pdf option?

[luke]

Nah, no pdf. PDF was for preorders only.

[tmerren]

Nah, no pdf. PDF was for preorders only.

This makes me a sad panda. I really would like a pdf of BWR and BAF. There are times when searching a pdf is much faster than thumbing through a book. The best example is when you are looking for skills or traits. If we beg enough would you reconsider this?

[Drozdal]

If we beg enough would you reconsider this?As it was stated many times before - there will be no BWR PDF. BAF PDF was there for people who pre-order (along with the HQ Map) - to make them feel special and also as an incentive to pay for something that isn't out yet (thus helping us here at BWHQ with book release).

Pre-orders will always have some special things accompanying them (like limited edition t-shirts, pdf's, pins, postcards, stickers ect.) otherwise who would have ordered them, if you just could get the same thing (even by paying for it) after the release date?

pre-oder people rule, everyone else drools :)

I guess so.
