Default New copy of 3rd Edition rules...

ordered this New 3rd edition M.P. rule bookfrom Amazon, it came today.



Inside, at the back it reads (c) 1980,1984,2017

"Printed by Amazon"

Do Amazon have a deal with Timeline now? or P.O.D. service?
Either way, YAY.

Can you scan the front and back and the copyright section so I can have a look at it?

I'd like to see the differences to compare to the printings I have here at http://www.thesupplybunker.net

Thank you.

Thank you.

Interesting indeed. It is the same finial version that TML created under Chris, but mine has a copyright of 2006 only.

I'll get an order done thru Amazon.com to see what they look like when printed in North America. I'll order one from the UK as well just to get a sample in my collection.

The back page looks a little different to my own edition, any other changes?

Also who pays £640 for a copy of American Outback?

It's like looking at gun ads, one can want anything for their items, doesn't mean some one will buy them at the price asked.

Received my Amazon ordered copy. The cover paper is really interesting, feels rubberey, leatherish, I like it a lot. I think the color needs to be adjusted a little bit for the science badge is shifted more to the purple side than blue.

The last page shows Made in the USA, Middletown, DE, 13 January 2018.

I'll have to look closer at all of the markings and compare with some other printings I have.

Chris is planning on releasing all of the modules including the out of print ones this summer. These are most likely the place holders.

Could be. It is interesting as a paper binding of a book if it is.
