Changes

Yeah, the question is, "Matthew, what kind of changes did you make to the new Core Book?" I get it. Some of you already bought the book, sometimes already twice, and you're wondering if you should fork over your hard-earned dollars to do it again.

While the content of the Catalyst edition of the Core Book remains fundamentally the same, the layout has changed in many places. It's been cleaned up all over the place. I listened to fans as well. The mecha and monster layouts changed to accommodate significantly larger illustrations. The fiction spreads have a new background that makes the art pop and the text easier to read. Much of the art has more real estate. It is, in general, a cleaner and better book and previous printings.

If it's a question of buying either Vade Mecum or the new Core Book right now, buy Vade Mecum and pick up the Core Book another day. You'll want the new Core, trust me, but Vade Mecum is very cool and is selling very well. It's in the top 30 best selling all-time electronic RPG books already.
