| I don't have it, but I got the hardcover 4th edition rulebook (still sealed) for $32 during a BWB sale.

| wakim piece of advice before you bring down the wrath of the staff (hmm that rhymes) edit the threads title. And yes I have the book and will be scanning it on to my computer, legally for easy access though if some copies happen to find there way into other peoples possession...well thats just unfortunate.

| Eh, trust me, I'm pretty much in charge of the word censor. I left bastard out of the list on purpose. It's about as bad as hell, damn, or sucks. It relates more to cursing than swearing. So don't worry about it. And I'm aware of this issue, though I'm still trying to find a fix.

| yeah in that context i'd let it pass as a simple exclamation rather than its other use as an insult, but since this is a PG forum I cant police it by just taking my own viewpoints into consideration. Still im a nice guy (well i think so) so i dont give out infractions just ask people to change stuff if its a potential irritant to others. |

| The way I see it, the term "bastard" hasn't been used as a true insult in generations. Even Disney is known to throw it into movies from time to time. Actually even Warhammer is intended for players 12+ and its fluff books are for "mature readers," so in unison with Games Workshop we're more of a PG-13 rating. G = No curses/swears. PG = Cursing, no swearing. PG-13 = Cursing, some swearing R = Cursing and swearing But anyway, back to the original topic, what is Xenology normally priced?

If the book has a printed price on its cover, or inside flap, it can NEVER increase over that, but it can be sold for cheaper. | |

| There's a copy of Xenology at my local gaming store. And correction: the printed price is NOT the MSRP. Books do not have MSRPs. In an independent sale, such as with yard sales, flea markets, or auctions, books may increase in price, which is unlikely unless it's rare or OOP. However, if sold by a store it can never under any circumstances go beyond the printed price. |
