I was happy when my friend, Mark Reed, asked me to help out here and there (small things like reviewing, graphics/layout advice and so on) with his company’s RPG book, Bounty Head Bebop .
I’m further happy to see it hitting print as well!
Mark’s a great guy and this is a great, solid book. If you like RPGs, give the PDF a look. If you’re more into getting a freebie, subscribe to our RPG gameplay podcast where we’ll be giving away a couple copies (I think April or so).
Bounty Head Bebop Core Book as PDF $14 | Print $25
Bounty Head Bebop: Jacked Up! (supplement) as PDF $4

I was emailing this to a bud of mine and I thought I’d repeat this info a lot and decided to blog it and refer him here. (Hi Mark!)
Amazon Reviews
After researching the idea and giving thought to something I heard Gygax say once, I don’t think I’m going to pick up 4th.
Gygax basically said that people didn’t need the rulebooks… they needed imagination.
4th edition basically offers a different method to conduct character craetion and combat. It stifles existing, established methods of doing things such as character creation and combat and is basically a new revinue stream for WotC.
I may buy the books once day, but if a game is 4th only, I’ll probably move along. Spending time flipping through pages looking for the solution of some rule is not my idea of having fun. Playing the game is my idea of fun.
