DC Heroes game (using The Blood of Heroes retro-clone), I finally got back on track with the "main" storyline today. The Olympian couldn't make it, but Mettle and Mr. Zozo were more than enough to plunge into the mysteries surrounding the unknown woman they saved from the Black Enchantress.
Even Heroes Bleed Issue 35 part 1
Copies landed on my doorstep today! Here are photos of the actual product, cover, interior pages, etc.
Besides now having the correct cover illustration, the Fantasy Adventure Journal is now available in two sizes; original 115 pages and now the new jumbo 206 journal. I found the 115 page journal is ideal for players, but as a Crypt Keeper I find I want more pages for additional story threads and plots which are sure to develop during any one of my games. At 206 pages I've got room to add session prep to the journal. I used my green-covered copy, the original proof copy, as my sole play aid
The journals are hardcover, of course, with Drivethru's "best" paper option selected, and a custom cover illustration completes the deal. 206 pages does come at a cost. Believe it or not, my profit on the larger size is less than that of the 115 page book. Still, my take is minimal, so the price tag on these books reflects production and shipping costs. Like 93% of the price, actually. But, once again, the service I get from Drivethru makes it the only realistic option to self-publish game products. Any money I make on the sale of these journals will be used to buy more for myself. After all, I am the intended audience :)
I've edited the audio recording of the first session of Space Opera 2760 - Lower Frontier Tales and have experimented with a "sprinkling" of sound effects and background music here and there. The goal is to retain the verbal "entirety" of a live game session while enhancing listener pleasure with traditional audio entertainment.
