Title: Crimson Cutlass RPG is on Kindle
Post by: Dumarest on April 30, 2017, 07:22:00 PM
Just in case anyone is interested, I stumbled across this on Amazon today:https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s?k=crimson+cutlass

I wish more RPGs were available for Kindle and other formats as ebooks. Surprising that Drivethru has been so effective at cornering the market. But I guess the rpg market is probably too small to be of much concern to Amazon.

Probably so. I can't justify the cost of a Kindle just to get the three volumes of Crimson Cutlass.

As much as I love my kindle both in eink and regular tablet form, it sucks to use as a reference. Reading from front to back yeah no problem along with the occasional back and forth to foot notes. The problem is that you have an extra step to hop to the ToC or the Bookmark menu to get to where you need.

What I have found that it is better to use something that has tabs like GoodReader on the iPad. Chop up the PDF into sections and open them all up as separate files.

I lack the tech savvy to do much with a PDF or whatever a Kindle file is.

You can download the Kindle app to any Android device or Ipad/Iphone as well. They probably have a Kindle App for Windows 10 too I would surmise.

Crimson Cutlass needs a cleanup and a reprint.

Such a great game, but ahead of its time.

I've never read it. Elucidate, if you would. What needs to be cleaned up? What are the rules like?
