Considering the popularity of LL, and the success of the recent Swords & Wizardry Complete Kickstarter, I think it's high time for a LL core hardback Kickstart.
Over the years, I've bought many Lulu hardbacks.
Once, very few (perhaps 1 in 10) would have an issue with the pages being lumpy and crinkly when flipping through the book or turning the individual pages.
(I recall I read that this is a result of the glue being made to dry too quickly, thus 'drawing up' the pages that had otherwise been set in just fine an' dandy.)
Over the last year and a half, this issue has been (IME at least) apparent in every hardback I've ordered.
I've long wanted to get the Revised Core hardback with the corrected errata, but have been loathe to pull the trigger on the over 30 buck hardback since I know it won't be the great quality of my old Lulu purple book, the later purple book or my first (now unrepentantly battered) copy of the Revised.
I'm not fond of perfect bound softcovers, so getting the better quality softcover is not something I seriously consider.
tl;dr - I want a hardback option. The Lulu option has begun to be a great big suck. PLEASE consider a Kickstarter for a LL Core hardback!
Thank you and goodnight.
