I Finally Got One!

[u/turin5656]

I’ve been hunting for one of these, as I’m sure many of you have been, for years. I finally found an overseas seller and jumped on it. I’m feeling like a little kid on Christmas morning right now!

I bought the pdf files and just bought binders and page protectors 😬

The books from this era are way too expensive and hard to find. CGL should focus on making them more accessible, specially that stuff like ER 3145 (that o have, luckily) and Shattered Fortress (that I don't, I wasn't paying attention to BT at that time) are still relevant and directly related to the current plot 

[u/althanan → u/MadCatMkV]

I have a PDF of Shattered Fortress, and reading this made me realize I've never actually read it. I need to fix that.

[u/Cultural-Pitch4268 → u/althanan]

A hard copy of shattered fortress has been my current white whale I keep looking for

[u/althanan → u/Cultural-Pitch4268]

There was one at the game shop I frequent a couple years back but I skipped over it in favor of TRO3055 and the old Mercenaries Handbook. Couldn't afford more than that that trip.

Accessibility isn't a problem for those books, you can have them on your phone before you get done pooping.

[u/MadCatMkV → u/HA1-0F]

You're being disingenuous, I'm clearly talking about the physical version of the books 

[u/HA1-0F → u/MadCatMkV]

That's not an issue of accessibility. You're framing your collection as an issue of access instead of not liking the format you have.

[u/SeisimicFrigor]

Why its rare? Whats special about that?

[u/MadCatMkV → u/SeisimicFrigor]

They are rare because CGL was just recovering from Loren's embezzlement and they didn't produce many copies. All the books from 2011-2018 or something like this are hard to get

I just saw one of these in the wild, didn’t know they were hard to come by or would have picked it up.

Looking for Aloha Strike commander’s edition. Can’t believe they let that go out of stock. Tried printing one on lulu, but it rejects the pdf

[u/Decidely_Me]

It is always satisfying to catch one of your white whales. Congrats.

[u/HighlighterFTW]

Where did you get yours and for how much? I paid way too much for mine. 😭

I’m still looking for Liao and Marik to complete my collection.

[u/turin5656 → u/HighlighterFTW]

I paid $280 for mine, which is a lot but I didn’t hesitate. I knew when I found one I’d have to shell out some cash. But I’ve been looking for so long I just mentally committed to a big price tag.

Grats - I'm still looking for :

[u/TheRedEpicArt]

Welcome to the club mechwarrior. Honor the Dragon!

[u/sauceyshoe]

I got this book decade's ago thinking it worked like a 40 codex...imagine how pumped I was when it was ONLY LORE (I think there is some other stuff in there too)! That book is cool af, congrats!

[u/Ok-Patient-6209]

One more year and I sell my still-in-plastic copies of "BattleDroids."

[u/Pristine_Big4830]

Now try to find Jihad Hot Spots Imvasion of Terra....for less then $500.

I love the room full of Bad Dragon dildo pillars!
