*ahem* Good to hear, Tyrel. Well done.

Doug

Well, Doug, if you INSIST, we can always delay it some more -- for old times sake? :)

Why do I hear Annie Potts voice?

'Typical.' ;->=

Doug

Just picked it up from the vbam games online store.

Thanks!

Look forward to getting the print version as well in a couple of months.

It's finally out!

Second Edition is Now Available!

VBAM Games, Inc. is proud to announce the release of the long-awaited SECOND EDITION of the Victory by Any Campaign Guide. This revised version of the original Victory by Any Means 4x strategic sci-fi campaign system integrates over ten years of rules updates alongside new, never before seen content.

"This book is the culmination of over six years of constant development," said Tyrel Lohr, lead developer on the Second Edition rules at VBAM Games. "We've had a lot of aborted attempts to launch this book, and it's taken some real soul searching to push the rules in a direction that builds upon the strengths of First Edition without getting mired in additional complexity. It's been a difficult road to travel, and anyone would tell it has been a long one, but we're finally there."

While the core game mechanics in Second Edition will be familiar to veteran Victory by Any Means players, the rules have been rewritten from the ground up to make them more accessible and easier to use. There are more rules references than before that make it easier for players to find rules that they may need to look up during play, and additional examples have been added to help new players get a better idea of how to run and play the game.

The Campaign Guide includes all of the rules that you need to run and play a strategic campaign in a sci-fi setting.

*heh heh* Akalabeth stole your thunder.

And, for old times sake, as I've put so much effort in years of whinging, not that I'm done, picked up it as well.

Doug

It won't be the first time, and it won't be the last. Akalabeth is a stalwart comrade, to be sure. :)

And we appreciate your patronage, Doug! We should have more baubles to sell you before too long. We fully expect you to continue your role as our very own "Statler and Waldorf" and keep heckling us from the balcony, as it were.

At this point we'd feel lost and forlorn if you didn't!
