"Astounding Tales" 2nd Edition Subscription Now Op

[Howard Whitehouse]

Patrick Wilson of ‘The Virtual Armchair General’ has issued this notice about his amazing subscription offer for the new edition of ‘Astounding Tales!’ Please ignore the hype about ‘the ultimate rules set for Pulp Era role playing games’ – it’s simply a fast and fun skirmish level game with RPG elements, played with more concern for B-movie action than actual reality! Howard.

The (Virtual) Armchair General now invites fans of the works of
Howard Whitehouse to help make his latest masterwork a reality--
hopefully in time for HistoriCon 2006!
"Astounding Tales!" 2nd Edition is rapidly approaching
editorial and formatting completion. Doubling in size since the 1st
Edition two years ago, the ultimate rules set for Pulp Era role
playing games is more complete and wide ranging than ever, with new
features and resources, but with the same simple, direct game
mechanics.
As with other TVAG Subscription publishing projects,
interested parties are offered the chance to buy the rules prior to
printing at a discounted price with other inducements.
1) Pre-Publication Price: $20.00 USD (plus $5.00 domestic
postage, $8.00 Overseas). Payment may be by PayPal to
TVAG@worldnet.att.net, or by personal check/money order to TVAG's
earthly address. The expected retail price upon publication will be
$25.00, and a PDF Edition on CD will be offered for $15.00 as well.
NO MONEY will be requested until the minimum number of 35 copies has
been sold, at which point the Subscription for this print run will
be CLOSED. In short, it's "First come, first served!"
2) All Subscribers' names will appear on the Role of Honor
printed in all copies of the initial printing.
3) Each Subscriber's copy will be personally numbered,
inscribed, and autographed by the author himself.
Copies are expected to be mailed by HistoriCon, and some
number are to be available for retail sale at the event through Mr.
Bob Bowling of RLBPS. For those buying their copies at the
Convention, Howard will be all too easily induced to autograph your
copy then and there.
The clock is ticking! This Subscription will close at
midnight (CDT), July 11. If there is insufficient response, the
Publisher cannot promise printing and delivery in time for
HistoriCon, though the rules WILL be printed.
Gentlemen! Ignite your Rocket Belts, man your Zeppelins,
crank up your flivver, or just start running!

saying 'Yes, dammit, I need these rules!' will put you on the list!
