Bash scifi on ipad / iBooks

Post by Skipp »

Hi there, 1st off can I say how much I enjoy your games! I've introduced 5 people to RPGs through Bash fantasy and I now have a regular gaming session for the 1st time in years... (Which is great)

So I was looking for a change of flavour, had just bought an ipad and was looking at the scifi version of bash, I bought it on iBooks but have a problem with the way it's set out - tables don't have their headers which makes it difficult to read, I'm wishing I'd just bought a PDF instead... (I use good reader for that and have found it great)

I don't know what you can do about it, as their is an adjustable font size option in iBooks, but if its possible it'd be good to arrange it so that when a table is displayed (weapons or armour particularly) that the headings of each column are displayed at the top whatever size of font you've chosen...

I'll post up some pics of our fantasy sessions for you, we've been playing a lot and have a load of house rules etc that we hope are of some interest...

Again great game for miniature rpg lite skirmishes. Simply the best mechanic and balance I've found to date.

I have no clue how it even got onto ibooks, as I never did anything to put it up there. I wonder if it is something Lulu does automatically or if I'm being ripped off by somebody. (Note: I'm not blaming you for anything here, I'm just perplexed.

Okay it looks like something Lulu did on their own for a few select titles. Unfortunately, I knew nothing about it and still have no clue how to format books for n ereader. But I would be happy to send you the pdf. Send me an email andI will set you up.

Skipp,

I have a pdf of BASH Sci Fi on my Ipad, courtesy of BASHMAN, and it wooks perfectly. Sorry to hear about your experience with ibooks.

When in doubt - go with BASHMAN - he never disappoints.
