Format update and a new book!

So! I''m pushing out a new update. This one is super minor but it should improve the readablity of the books by great

Firstly, I moved the GM spec sheet to it's own book called "The GM and player guide" that should..well..assist GMs and players

Secondly, I've done a lot of moving around of things to make the book easier to read


Also! It's come to my attention that Adobe Acrobat Reader makes the book look weird in some places, so please try and use other PDF readers and not Adobe Acrobat, since it's crap.

BOOM POW UPDATE!

Alright! I'm getting the books ready for a printing, so I've elmininated a bunch of the numbers in the titles for sections.

I got a Pateron, also, what the fuck am I doing?

So I finally broke down and got a pateron, mostly just to gauge intrest in this game possibly, and to see if I can snag a beer after 10 years of work.

If you wanna donate, head on to https://www.patreon.com/user?u=5703092

To do so. If you don't? That's cool too. The PDF books are still firee, will still be free, so none of that "I'm charging now" garbage.

Print edition soon?

Also! So I've listend to the players thus far and from what I'm hearing the game, rules wise, is damn near perfect. That's good!
But, what I'm also hearing is that there are a lot of meta issues with the game so We're going through and correcting those now.

Chief change is the weight issue: It's too many damn numbers to be bothered with. Therefore I'm doing a number crunch, turning everything from oz to decimal pounds(Because I still refuse to go to metric),  simplifying both the calculation of carrying capacity, and how items affect it.

There's a bunch more minor meta things, like making things easier to read/use, primarily looking at making the gun charts a bit easier to use. So look forward to that.

And as always, FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME!
