#2: The Prices are Right
Open Game Content: Free
The new monsters, races, classes, and treasures from the Masters and Minions Horde Books will be seamlessly integrated and cross-indexed with the core rules of the world's most popular roleplaying game to form the Behemoth3 System Reference Document, made freely available to the gaming community via www.behemoth3.com.
PDF: $5 Each, Free of Digital Rights Management Restrictions
The PDF versions of our Horde Books take full advantage of the medium to do things paper only dreams of: bookmarked indexing, searchable text, and hyperlinks to our Vorpal online utilities and the Behemoth SRD. Plus, you get an unlimited number of cut-and-pastes to create your own character sheets, campaign logs, gaming utilities, published products, or any other use of the Open Game License you can imagine. On sale exclusively at retailers which do not require DRM.
Full Color Illustration Handouts: $5 Per Set of 5
Alumni of the old school will remember the thrill of the illustrations designed to be shown to the players in classic tournament modules like S4. Do you also remember the contortions the DM went through not to reveal the picture on the other half of the handout page? Behemoth3 has solved this problem in our own homage to the classics. Players in the Masters and Minions Tournament at Gen Con will be seeing each new monster they encounter illustrated in full color on a glossy 4" x 6" card. They'll get to take the cards home with them, and so can you at the low, low price of $5 per set.
Horde Book: $12 Each, with Free PDF
There's nothing like holding a beautifully designed book in your hands. Whether you want to bring it to the gaming table or read it in the bathtub, the unique advantages of the printed word are still going strong in the new millennium. But you don't need to choose which format you like best: once you buy the print version of a Horde Book for $12, you can download the PDF for free. Or, if you already own the PDF, get the print version for $7. Each of the 500 copies in the initial limited edition print run will be hand-numbered and signed by one or more of the creators on the Behemoth3 team.
Complete Set: $40 for All Three Books and Illustration Sets in a Unique Folder
Some people just want minotaurs and don't want stirges. Others are going to want all the Masters and Minions they can get! We're not ashamed to say we like those people best, so we're giving them a special offer. If you buy each of the initial Horde Books and illustration sets not only will we knock $11 off the total price, we'll also give you a unique three-pocket folder emblazoned with the Behemoth3 logo to carry everything in. Does it get any better than this? Not until Horde Books 4-6 arrive in December...
