Countdown to Completion
« on: May 02, 2012, 01:58:00 PM »

Well folks it's about that time. The AoC is just about finished. Not a moment too soon it would seem, this place has been dead for weeks. Right now I'm in the final stages of edit, art and layout. I'm hoping to have this finished by month's end.

Before then, I'd like to inform the OBT community (the entire BattleTech community as well) that I'm looking for intense and critical feedback. This book is open to complete and total community revision once the first version is released. Any and all changes to the AoC will be community driven and directed, with all conflicts resolved through simple vote.

Your participation in this matter is important and greatly valued.

Thanks!

Criticizing your job is my personal quest in life  :P

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

Would any of you guys like to read some of the text before the PDF is finished? The endgame is still the same - once this book is released it's open to complete community revision - I just wondered if you guys wanted to see some of it early?

I can provide the basic ToC for decision making purposes...
