Nice idea! ^__^

rulebook?

Oh well... I really don't know! ^__^ I could think at something like a D&D
Handbook.. and I spent around 35/40 US$ without much problems. It really
depends of the print and binding quality!

I don't know what "Perfect Bound" is..but if it is the one done with glue, I
prefer spiral. The top would be a "real" binding (like, to keep the same
example, the current D&D books...but I think it's a difficult one to
achieve).

>Any other preference regarding the book?

WELL...I'd spend the money just for a totally finished product! I'd buy it
just after being sure every possible rules debates, clarification or
misprinting would be absent. Obviously I am only speaking about
group-dependant problems, not caused by the print company or bookbinder (I
volunteer from now to read the final products to look for misprints and the
like before they go to print!).

I wouldn't spend the money for a book I can print at zero cost myself,
altough in B&W, if there's a risk it becomes "obsolete" after a short while!

On the other hand, a well done book, with well done and well discussed rules
like the 5.0 is going to be would be well worth its price, and the oversea
shipping!
