<< Anyway, let's talk simple economics here... 10% discount would mean I'd have
 to blow about $700 on Issaries stuff through Wizard's attic. At a rough, back of a fag packet calculation that's about the amount I've spent on RQ stuff since I started playing in 1981.   

 So, as you may gather, 3 books over three years seems a far better deal to  the (obviously insane / old fart) likes of me. >>

      Depends how many Issaries books you were intending to buy. You get one free book anyway, so you'd have to buy a further 20 to get the same deal financially (ignoring the t-shirt and non-economic benefits). The plan is for Issaries to bring out something like 30 books in the first three years, so if you bought the lot, this is indeed a relative saving. Or it would be if you were American, I'm less sure how much the benefit is for Europeans. And if you intend to buy everything Issaries publishes. And if they keep to their schedule. But that'll be the reasoning they're using to say its a good deal...

Forward the glorious Red Army!
