HoC Archive republished, available and CHEAPER
#149389 - 01/27/08 07:31 PM (24.17.223.10)

UPDATES:
The final edit (Dec-Jan 08) is complete. Many changes have been made, both subtle and significant. The largest change was to the index, which is about 50% fuller now and contains reference to many individuals and empires that were missing from the previous index.
The major content additions include a total rewrite of early HoC history, and additional writing about LIFE both pre and post-HoC. Finally the entire document was edited line by line to remove some pesky grammatical errors, and hopefully the last of the spelling errors.
THE PRICE HAS BEEN REDUCED TO $19.95.
This means I’ll be making peanuts per book, but hopefully it will be a more reasonable purchase for those that want it.
The pdf is always available for free:

The book can be found at:

Enjoy! This is the absolute final no more changes archive.

OMG! There is no way to truly say how wonderful it is to see this back and available. I just read through the portion I provided info for, and I am truly impressed. Well done I say, Well Done. And as soon as I can drum up the twenty bucks, I plan on having a hard copy for myself.

Just a note that I have replaced the cover of The HoC Archive. Although I really liked the Taurian logo, now that the book is getting close to hitting some maintstream channels (well, amazon, at least) the danger of litigation grows. I don't necessarily think that WizKids would come after me, but when you are talking about corporate lawyers its always better to play it safe.
Anyhow I mention this because some people have or are waiting for copies with the TC logo on the front, and I don't want you guys to think you have an outdated book. The actual contents have not changed, just the cover.
Consider those copies like a limited edition or something. =P
Anyhow the new cover is located below. I'm not a graphic artist so my limited skills were taxed to the limit but I think it looks OK.
Thanks to those that have bought copies, so far I've been able to large size some Mickey D's and I bought a couple pens. Books really don't pay the bills. =P

New maintenance page:

This is NOT a new edition. The January edition is still the latest and greatest (and final) version.
The PDF download as well as a link to purchase the book can be found there.
Enjoy.

I am not sure whether or not WordPerfect can read pdf's, do you have Adobe Acrobat installed?
