By far one of the smoothest kickstarters I've ever backed and the book is going to get a pretty good workout too in my next game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-90976779150755275502014-03-30T23:29:54.213-04:002014-03-30T23:29:54.213-04:00Awesome project and a fun setting.

I was reading along as the files arrived to my inbox. Where as I normally wait for completed products and those might get shifted way down the TBR pile since the significant lull between backing and getting a book often means I forget why I backed them sometimes. Good communication and sending out the draft in bits kept me engaged and interested in the material.Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994932732115376322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-56759487414970824202014-03-30T19:58:04.324-04:002014-03-30T19:58:04.324-04:00That is correct sirs!

Full disclosure: The total POD print cost for the GTTCODSE is $13.54. $19.99-13.54 = $6.45. $6.45 - 2.25 (RPGNow's 35% cut) leaves my royalty for each purchase a whopping total of $4.20! My goal is to make a quality product and offer it at an affordable rate. The Kickstarter and some generous PWYW contributions for the PDF allowed me to break even on the map/art/print/ship costs (more or less) so pretty much anything I see from the print editions is pretty much profit. I'm not in this to get rich, obviously. :) <br /><br />Tenkar, you forgot to mention this was a Kickstarter "Tavern Pick" that shipped on time! Just trying to lay the groundwork for my future Kickstarters, one of which will be the Guidebook to the Duchy of Valnwall!<br /><br />Thanks!petespahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01003977036485078376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-51830636811002083792014-03-30T17:47:45.192-04:002014-03-30T17:47:45.192-04:00Those prices are doable if he doesn't have any...Those prices are doable if he doesn't have any plans to sell to distributors or retailers, but just to keep it direct-to-consumers through POD. Looks like he's doubling (or a little less), rather than tripling, the print cost. From what I can see, there's no way he could make any money if he sold to a retailer or distributor for 50% of retail.Greyhawk Grognardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13929743865700766901noreply@blogger.com
