Just to let you all know...

Animal Encounters and Spinward Encounters are now both in stock and pre-orders started going off today.

We have also just posted the preview to Alien Module 4: Zhodani, and very nice it looks too!
 
Niiice!

Especially nice to finally see the Addaxur. Regarding that, I can say only one thing...

"Bugs, Mr. Rico!"

Nothing like having another campaign opportunity. :wink:

Well that's the last time I ever lift a finger for Mongoose or give then another penny.
 
I'm betting he contributed and got left out of the credits. What did you do,Stainless? And maybe it was a mistake too!

That's happened to me on more then one occasion, doesn't change my purchasing habits though.
 
Just looked at the Zhodani preview, and it has the Addaxur in it. Not the same Addaxur as in GT's book, but it reads a lot more like the version in CT's Supplement 3 than David Pulver's version. (Not that I dislike DP's; I just think his would be better as a *different* Zhodani minor race.)

I'd have to see the whole thing to review it in length but I like it so far.

Excellent news!

Looking forward to Spinward Encounters & the new AM4: Zhodani intensely!

Are those the right credits? They list the original Darrian module's authors, and are missing contributors to this book. That one of them happens to be me is beside the point. :?:
 
Credits are always the last thing to be done before a book goes to print (do them earlier and someone _always_ gets left out). The book will have the correct credits, the preview is merely using a template.
 
My cry-baby reaction is formally retracted. Apologies. :oops: At first glance, it made my eyes bulge, but I suppose I should have twigged to something not being right when the author is also in the acknowledgements! :oops: :oops: :oops:
 
Hey Stainless, as a contributor, you have a right to be acknowledged for your work.

To those who accused you of being some kind of Drama Queen. Let's see how you feel if you were to contribute to a published (for money) book and didn't receive the credit you felt you deserved. Fair's fair guys, he contributed, he deserves a mention. Glad to see the Matt cleared up the error.

Thanks for the understanding guys. However, it was ME accusing MYSELF of being a drama queen. :roll: And for those who know me, picturing me as a queen is mighty funny! :lol: I suppose I have two daughters (2 and 5 years old) so it must have rubbed off somewhat.

Needless to say, nothing to see here now. I look forward to how people receive the Zhodani book.
 
Matthew and I have confirmed the Credits for the Zhodani book, so I'm confident everyone on my list will be there :D

And yes, I've avoided posting anything about the book until now because I didn't want to jinx it.

If I was left out of the credits I would contact Mongoose and ask what is going on, not put on a drama show in the forums. As Stainless has found out, he reacted over nothing. Hopefully lesson is learned and patience will prevail in the future.

Cool!

I am sure I will receive the Zhodani book very positively.

Excellent news.
Contributors should be listed--even if no paycheck is involved, professionally its expected in the writing field.
