mattingly Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Foxbat has his the campaign trail, and his premptive memoir Foxbat for President has hit the bookstores. At 100 pages of Foxbatty goodness, the book contains characters, maps, plot seeds, twists and turns, stomach turns, and situations that are bizarrely dangerous and dangerously bizarre. The Mighty Foxbat is a loony supervillain, who never really hurts anyone in his strange plans. Now, he’s gotten enough signatures to allow him to run for the highest office in the land, still in his mask. While honored, the opportunity comes as a surprise to him. But then, who’s really behind it, and why? This is a Champions adventure for 4 to 8 players at 350 to 450 points. It requires the HERO System 5th Edition rulebook, as well as Conquerors, Killers, & Crooks, and DEMON: Servants of Darkness. Inside are detailed write-ups: * Leroy, the Exo-Skeleton Man * Harmonious Fist * Charly * Agents One, X, and Orange * Secret Service agents * the master villain behind it all Inside are useful maps: * a downtown street scene * a suburban home * a brownstone manor * a hospital * a prison yard * a large cavern The printed book retails for $19.95, and the PDF retails for $9.95.

Lord Liaden Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President This seems to me like an eminently appropriate swan-song for Fifth Edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattingly Posted June 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President Soft cover is being printed now. We're taking preorders, and will ship them as soon as we get them, which we expect to be roughly two weeks (as soon as we get back from Origins). The interior artwork and the maps were done by this forum's very own Sketchpad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattingly Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President Foxbat wants your vote so badly, he's offering her services as your next President for the amazing discount price of http://www.blackwyrm.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=54]$6.65 (that's a penny cheaper than the Beast!). For a limited time, you can pick up the pdf of Foxbat for President at one third off (which sort of describes Foxbat himself) its usual $9.95 price, in order to propel Foxbat to office more quickly. Even the best of supervillainous candidates need a bailout now and then.

pruttm Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President Is the pdf full-color? How about the print version? Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bengalelf Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President Of course, you lower the price after I bought from DriveThruRPG. I better get a kiss from Charly for that. I good kiss.... I was wandering the halls of RPG earlier this week. When I saw Foxbat for President; I just had to have it. I have half read the module and have already scheduled to work it into my campaign. What I have read seems pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattingly Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President The PDF is full color, but print is black and white. As for the timing on the sale, we were tying it to the Foxbat podcast. If our shopping cart had been set up to accept coupons, we'd have offered a coupon just to the podcast listeners, but rather than have our web programmer upgrade with a new module on a live database, we figured the best way to offer the discount was to spread it across the board in true Foxbatly fashion.

Narratio Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Re: Foxbat for President Picked up the PDF (Hero THEN Drivethru, Hero THEN drivethru goshdarn!) quickly ran eyeballs thru it, offered a small prayer to whatever diety was paying attention that Foxbatmite wasn't mentioned. Now I've something to do for this evening. Very nice work. Hmmm, President has a secret service detail... Leroy with an ear piece, wearing a black suit? Maybe I can read it at lunch time...

Unless he has a cunning plan.... Uh oh! Now I've combined Foxbat and Baldric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
