    More CoC titles available at DriveThruRPG.com

    The number of OOP items available at DriveThruRPG.com has doubled (though I don't know when, I don't check the site very often- most seem to have been added last week).

    The list now includes:
    Terror Australis
    Mansions of Madness
    The Thing at the Threshold
    Ye Book of Monsters II

    Caveat Emptor it would seem.

    Maybe we can use this thread to post experiences of products purchased from DriveThru.

    So to update the list:

    Terror from the Stars has been withdrawn as it has been found to be incomplete.

    Some opinions were voiced in this thread and also this thread.

    Not specific problems per se, but generic complaints.

    No, because they are copyrighted and doing so would be in breach of that copyright.

    As the person who pointed out the problem with Terror from the Stars to DriveThruRPG, I can say that they are aware of the issue and are trying to get the missing pages from Chaosium. They have stated in their user forum that those who purchased the incomplete version will receive an update as soon as one is available.

    All in all, I have to say they are doing their best to fix the situation, but they can't be faulted for not having what Chaosium never gave them in the 1st place.

    Anyone who owns the complete version of the actual print version of Terror from the Stars, and is willing to make a scan of the Theron Marks Manual (the missing section), may want to contact DriveThruRPG and offer to help. It certainly would be a help for those of us with the incomplete PDF. I imagine — though this is only my opinion — that DriveThruRPG might be willing to reward such assistance with a free download or something along those lines (again, this is ONLY my opinion; I have no idea what they would really do). (No, I don't have any relationship with them beyond being a mostly satisfied customer, and they have not asked for any unsolicited assistance.)
