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.

One of the things about the bordering on ridiculous development cycle that was the Core Book is that I pretty much wrote the book twice, not including simple revisions. It went through so many iterations of what the final product was going to be that one day I woke up and read the Setting chapter and said, "I am so re-writing this." And I mean from scratch. Which applied to most of the book at that point.
Not that I'm complaining, mind you. I think the book wound up to be a much better and more compelling product as a result. It also helped me refine the style that is CthulhuTech to the point that now I can churn out nearly finished product on the first draft, which is very helpful.
I guess the point is that I hope you like it.

The
Core Book is coming back in full-color under the watch of Catalyst Game Labs. Thank goodness. I realize that going black and white for the last print run was a business necessity, but the book never really looked as good. I just saw the new color galleys and the book looks like I always wanted it to look and the best of any edition we've printed.

Well, it looks like we'll be releasing the
CthulhuTech Core Book as an electronic book. It sounds like a good idea. Our publisher says that it's a great secondary revenue stream and that some people who wouldn't normally buy the book will buy the PDF and that some people will even buy both.

In this section, I'll be blogging about anything related to the material covered in the Core Book, either setting or Framewerk related.
