Is there a way to download this free PDF directly from the Strategic Elite site where the creation of an account for yet another webshop isn't necessary?

You want an account at Wargame Vault.

If the nearly 3 hours I've been waiting for a new password email are indicative what to expect, then, NO,
I don't want an account with Wargame Vault. It's an automated process, right?

Why even bother with a setup like this if the PDF is free? Do you have a website dedicated to the game? Then host it there!

Broadsword, I can track number of units on Wargame Vault and also bundle it with the Brink of Battle pdf, and the print copy which we're setting up there as well.

It will also generate a customer list that I can send updates, announcements, and coupon's to for the project.

I'm not able to speak to your experience, but when I set up my WV account it was very fast. Hopefully your's is set up by now.

Thanks,

Bob

So it's not really a free set of fantasy skirmish rules?

Bob Faust of Strategic Elite Sponsoring Member of TMP26 Jun 2012 5:22 p.m. PST

Its a free supplement. It costs $0.00 USD. You will need the Brink of Battle rules to use it. But the new rules are free.

Okay, that makes sense, Bob, but 6 hours and still no contact from Wargame Vault.

Might it be faster to send you my email address?

Bob Faust of Strategic Elite Sponsoring Member of TMP26 Jun 2012 6:07 p.m. PST

Yeah, go ahead and email me at commander@brinkofbattle.com and I'll get you taken care of. I'll let WV know about the snag too.

Thanks for not letting technical issues kill your interest!

Best regards,

Bob

That's weird, Broadsword. I've never had a problem with WV. Did you use the right email? Did their automated reply get caught in your spam filters? WV is an excellent service. I've used it many times for free and pay stuff without hassle. Don't write them off too quickly.

Bob – email sent.

CPBelt – 1) Yes. 2) No. And I'm glad you've had better luck than I have.

There has to be a better way to do this.

FWIW, I've always had fast response and downloads from WV.

Maybe you have a firewall setting that is problematic?

No, the emails from the Nigerian Oil Minister seem to be arriving in a punctual manner, so I don't think it's my firewall.

Thank you, Bob! Got it! You are a gentleman and a scholar!

My pleasure, Broadsword! Hope you enjoy the rules!

Much thanks,

Bob
