Mongoose
Hi there!
I was just wondering whether or not it would be possible for Mongoose to look into producing PDF files for monsters and the like (at a price of course!).
I was thinking about the following...
What about providing a ten-page PDF enhancement / supplement every two months at a nominal fee (say, $2-3).
The PDF file would cover, for argument's sake, between five and ten creatures/monsters, fully statted out with nominal illustrations. The borders used for the Slaine RPG could be re-used to add a little colour.
Over a year, 60+ pages of support would be forthcomming and would provide Mongoose with between $12 and $18 of revenue! (Not much, but for the work involved, not too bad either!) Furthermore, sales of the PDF files could be used as interest indices and so gauge medium-term response to this intellectual property.
At the same time, I believe that Slaine fans would at least get their hands on additional information and be moderately satisfied.
I believe something like this would be possible and could indeed be easily covered in the time frame made available (namely, two months). This would give those of us who are interested in the Slaine RPG some much-needed gaming support. Also, writers over at Mongoose would not be committed to writing 64 - 130 page sourcebooks (saving both time and money), which may or may not meet expected company sales figures; this I believe is a compromise that may satisfy both sides overall.
I suppose the same could be done for other areas of interest: El Worlds, Time Travel, et cetera.
It was just a thought....
