katadder Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 So with postage to the UK being ridiculous when can we expect general release of book 5 (and the upgrade deck) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelshard Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Can't you buy a digital version during GenCon? I don't want the physical copy anyways so I'd hate having to wait for general release, also a digital copy wouldn't include shipping By the way, does anyone know if wyrd store uses a fixed exchange rate or follow the current rate?

I doubt Wyrd is in the money exchanging business at all. If you use paypal, the rate will depend on your settings and if you pay by card, the conversion will most likely be done by the card issuer.

Normally the digital version is not released until a month or two after the paper version. Also Normally Shops seem to start selling the book around the end of August, early September.

Angelshard Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 What really?! They seriously won't sell the digital version until October then? That seems way off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I don't buy the digital versions, so I don't keep track of when they are available, but Wyrd has previously said that they have waited with the digital release to allow FLAGs to have a chance to sell the physical copies. I don't know if this is still the way they do it, but I haven't heard anything different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleezy Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Isn't the book due for general release end of Sept? No idea regarding the digital version sorry, I always pick up the physical copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelshard Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 That sucks for those of us who never wants to own a physical copy and prefer the digital I honestly can't see how waiting with digital release would help the LGS as I'm guessing those who get a digital copy won't buy a physical anyway and those who wants both can still buy it from the local store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retnab Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 There is also piracy. Harder to anonymously pass around a physical book than it is a PDF. I do agree though, I'm a digital copy kind of guy (frickin love that I can use the search function on a book ) so the wait is a bit annoying.

Angelshard Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 True but if you're gonna pirate it you probably weren't planning on supporting anything anyways so not much lost there. The other issue is thst even if I decided to get the copy from GenCon it would be ~130$ just for the book. That is a mite expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaclaws01 Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Book general release has traditionally been the month after gencon, so end of september. It should go up on the webstore in october and the digital version should be october as well. There are people that don't care so much about digital vs physical that they'd rather have the book a month or two early than getting it on pdf.
