Chris,

Any chance you might get this available via IPR?

Well, now I'm starting to think that there is enough demand for it that I may just do that.

Get it there soon too! As according to the comments in the review for Supers! the author states:

'I'm definitely giving more though to both a PULP! and SPACE OPERA! version, after I've got the adventures book out of the way."

Though friendly competition is good right?

I've also looked into printing out the sci-fi edition of BASH! if I got the pdf. (and having it bound in the UK.) My general conclusion? UK reprographics companies suck! Unless you're doing large batches. I really want the book, but unfortunately not 300 copies of it. It would be tres expensive to print out this way (I don't own a decent enough printer) but at least I'd have a copy of the pdf too.

Simon is a friend of mine (and I was happy to give some minor assistance on Supers and to get a very nice credit at the beginning of it). I was one of the folks that encouraged him to go commercial with BoL and am very happy to see that it has been a success- I'm even making my own BoL item (Honor + Intrigue: 17th Century Swashbuckling)

I will talk to the folks at IPR this week about getting BASH! Sci-Fi up there, though...

I was very tempted to get both bash and supers from leisure games. As both you and simon are very active on forums and talk to your gamers/customers it made it very hard to choose which one I was going to get.

I know it sounds a bit strange, but in the end I went on cover art (UE cover is awesome). Will probably get round to picking up supers! at some point anyway though.

(I'll check IPR to see about shipping to the uk then... :D)

If it does indeed become available on IPR, I will definitely pick a copy up.

As I read through the forum this somewhat answers my initial question. I would like to pick up the current print versions for the Ultimate Edition, Sci-Fi and Fantasy at the same locale (shipping would be easier all at once over three times for a game system) and even two out of three isn't bad.

Well, BASH! Fantasy in its current form isn't going to print. Do expect an updated version next year. Meanwhile, I am working on Legends of Steel, which is a stand-alone system featuring revised rules for BASH! Fantasy, incorporating a lot of improvements from BASH! UE and BASH! SF.

I too wish this had been available at IPR as a bundle. As I want to get the book ASAP, I ordered the book through the Amazon link found on the BASH! page. If BASH Sci-Fi does get listed there, would there be a discount on the PDF purchase for those who already bought the hard copy?
