Pre-ordered from Amazon. My account says they're shipping it today. Hmmmm. We'll see.

Just asked Nick. They have been shipping them, so hopefully you'll have it soon.

Edit: In fact just had another message saying the last of the orders got shipped out today, so they've all been sent.

Congratulations! An enrichment and an enticement to IHMN gameplay for everyone.

Will there be a .pdf release this time about?

 ???

I've just been informed we should have it in the shop tomorrow. Be nice to have a small jump on the onlines for a change.  :D

 ???

As a stockist, I'd hope none TOO soon, but do understand the utility, and the main book's PDF was a blessing until the hardcovers arrived.

Good point Doug.
I only have a .pdf copy of IHMN, so it follows I desire/need a .pdf copy of HVF as well.
In fact, the majority of our club bought the .pdf release as we have all gone 'tablet mad'. o_o

Got my Kindle version this morning 8 AM Eastern, text only, no pictures, but--hey--that's just fine for now! Very good stuff!

Print version was ordered from Amazon also, was shipped this morning, and as I speak is in a FedEx facility about 75 miles north of me. Probably will arrive Thursday. Can't wait!
I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations needed by the young are wearying.

Got the notice from Amazon that my copy shipped and should be here Thursday.
Still too impatient, though, and may have to buy the Kindle version. (Just like I did with IHMN!)

Had to work today---the audacity of those people! Taking me away from HVF!---so have only been able to browse a little so far....have skimmed through the New World companies first. The Apaches immediately caught my eye, very nice concept, great story, and compelling personalities. Plus the recurring theme in my latest company creations of the Quest for Missing Mystic Relics. Well, plus Bombshell Mini's "Luta, Native American Shamaness" did come to mind.  :-* Now there's a Medicine Man...er, Woman.

Then the Mounties, which I was going to develop on my own until you [Craig] gave advance notice they'd be in the book. Are you kidding me? Mounties & trappers (Pulp Figures Yukon Peril range?), natives and even more native shamans (Reaper this time?) AND Sasquatch (Reaper?)?!?   :o And the Southern Gentlemen (West Wind Gentlemen's Club?)and Texas Rangers....already got the figures picked out.  ;D

I'm just getting started here. Great work, Charles and Craig! Believe me, miniatures companies the world over are about to see steep increases in sales as we rush to fill out these most worthy companies.

I have the third generation Kindle (I think) plus an app for my phone, and there are no images in my version except the cover. I'm not sure about what the Kindle Fire version would look like.
