    Default Are there plans for a Kickstarter Story Compliation in Print?

    Question's in the title. I understand that it isn't really practical to put the Kickstarter reward stories into print until they're all done, but as a Kickstarter backer, I would love it if this happened at some point and would be happy to shell out more cash for it.

    They'll eventually be available in print, yes:

    Step 1: Buy PDFs.

    Step 2: Print PDFs.

    Yeah. That particular Giant-Quote is four years old, and Rich seems to have changed his mind about how well PDF distribution works (in that he uses it now).

    The OP is already a Kickstarter backer and thus already has access to the PDFs. What he's asking for is a proper bound book (like all the others) with the Kickstarter stories in it, which your solution does not address.

    I would imagine that it will happen some point after they are all done. So, it will likely be a long while.

    - I should follow this advice more often.

    As someone who managed to miss the Kickstarter, but is now happily shelling out random quantities of money for the pdf's as quickly as they appear, I'd just like to say that even after I've bought all the pdf's, I'd still be very eager to buy a nicely bound print version of them, that can fit on the shelf next to all the print books (for which I have also gone on and eagerly bought the pdf versions even though I already had them in print).

    Just mentioning this, letting anyone know who might be reading this, and might be thinking about making decisions based on the existence of a demand for such a product
    Geez, what is it with that guy and needing to figure out all the fiddly little details?

    I know, right? It's called "Suspension of Disbelief"...

    Ditto - personally I prefer hard copies of books to things like e-readers anyway.

    And when possible hardback copies over softback

    I seriously doubt those would ever be offered--they haven't been for any of the other books, and the logistics of producing something that probably very few readers would buy would be prohibitive.

    I think another that would be good to print would be OOTS the annotated version - with the comic titles, the in jokes and the references to the D20 world explained
