Occult Wars, still in business ?
« on: March 29, 2008, 02:45:20 PM »
Last Thursday, after reading a Rule thread here, I went to Occult Wars site. The game seemed very interesting, a system that could be used both for Buffy-like confrontations or for DeepOne hunting.

I love to try a new rules system, and the PDF version it didn't seem too expensive, so I sent my £7.99 by Paypal, hoping to get a downloading link.

No link, so I guessed that Occult Wars' people would  contact me by e-mail. As today, I haven't received any e-mail yet, not even a confirmation of order. Money has been debited from my account, of course.

So I'm asking myself, and now asking you too, if Occult Wars folks are still in business. Any information would be welcome...

P.S. : I hesitated between buying the (more expensive) printed version and some minis, or trying the game before avec the PDF version. I love having gaming books, not PDFs, but as I hadn't heard anything of that company before, I guessed I should better begin by buying the cheaper PDF. Now I'm glad I haven't bought the printed version :-(

They are definatley in business and have an active Yahoo group  

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OccultWarsrules/

I have both printed and PDF set, the pdf will come in 4 or 5 emails due to the file sizers. One tip to save on ink go for the rules with a plain background as it is not ink friendly. A very good set of rules which can be adapted for all sorts of horror games.

I know last thursady saw the start of easter hols so possibly one reason for the delay.

I will post a link to this post for you on their group


regards

Karl

Thanks a lots, Karl !

It seems that Easter Holidays made them to delay the e-mail sending, and the e-mail address that I used to contact them is flooded with spam, so they didn't get my queries...    

Asking in the Yahoo group was the best idea, Karl, the authors saw it very quickly.

Everything is ok now.  I'm just beginning to read the game :)

Thanks again !
