Omnibus PDF?

Post by mrm1138 »

I was curious if there were plans to collect all of the Awesome Powers books into one omnibus PDF after they've all been released. As much as I'd love to have them right the * now, I'd love even more to have them in one volume.

That is the plan. Once all is done, there will be a compilation. Due to space, some things may need to be cut (not powers but some of the additional sidebars).

The big book will be released as a print book, but also as PDF.

Along similar lines, Icons A-Z is available to be purchased as a subscription through DriveThru RPG (and Steve Kenson stated that people who bought the subscription would receive a complimentary copy of the collected PDF if one were to be made available). Any chance we might see something similar for Awesome Powers?

A subscription? Well there are going to be a finite number of Issues based on Power Suites. The Kickstarter already had the option to buy every issue, and if you bought every issue, you'd get the set, too.

Or are you asking if you buy them all "ala cart" would you also get the "Omnibus" book?

What Ad Infinitum is doing with Icons A-Z is that they're releasing 26 PDFs total. On DriveThru RPG, people can purchase all 26 at once, including pre-orders of the installments that haven't yet been released which are automatically added to the purchaser's library as they come out.

Of course, I had forgotten that Awesome Powers began as a Kickstarter, and I see how that particular method of sales would be unfair to the backers and take away from the special-ness of their backer prizes. So, yeah, never mind! :)
