Cost me 64$ at the local copy shop (Kwik Copy) where I get discounts. Had them wire bound, printed on glossy paper, front and back cover on gloss cardstock, all printed full bleed. They look smashing. Just wish I'd have hopped on the train sooner so the money could've gone to Uncle Mike...

Then my Morbid Adventures is not the standard format :-).

Thanks for answering.

Once #3 is out of print, will it be offered in PDF as the others?  Just starting out with SA, I've got plenty to play with in the core rules, so would like to hold off on the ST issues for later.

Thanks

With Paris in ruins and London in ember
In times of the future when fears are abating
Don’t try to forget them, the Daleks are waiting
Quietly planning and scheming and hating…

Both, though the rules for acquiring Psychics vary a bit between sides.

We'll move to PDF as soon as we run out of copies.  It's a healthy print run though, so PDF won't be right around the corner.

Thursday night was UMW's monthly Strange Aeons night at Trilogy. Uncle Mike and James were there with some newly made terrain pieces when I arrived. As soon as I sat down Uncle Mike nudged a binder at me, "check in there and make sure I spelled your name right" he said. Opening it up I found the printer-proof of Shocking Tales of Madness & Mayhem, cool!

Inside the upcoming book are three different Black Dossier adventures, the conclusion the "The Council of Thirteen" and tons of new Lurker profiles. Plus the book looks excellent. I can't wait to receive my copy as soon as it arrives.

Mike and I also had time to play a game. I ran a Lurker list comprised of a Winged Nightmare, Cult Leader and two measly .22 pistol-armed cultists. I ended up losing, but was able to drag one Agent off the board and kill another. Mike's character survived but will be in pretty tough shape after this adventure. I'm sure I'll get paid back for the damage I've caused in full soon enough...I still have three new Agents that haven't seen any field action yet.

Also, big thanks to James and Mike for modifying their schedule to come to a different day to accommodate me. I really appreciate it!

I really want to see the new Lurkers. As much fun as it is to run a team of Agents, I love playing the Lurkers. You can create such cool themes. I love coming up with reasons the team is on the hunt!

Haha, Uncle Mike is probably the only person I know that rolls dice as badly as I do. Although he certainly rolled up a lot of hits with that damn shotgun...
