T20 Referee's Guide

[mike wightman]

According to Michael Taylor's Official QLI Update The Player's Book should be released in a couple of months time.
This is great news.

I have a question for TPTB, will there be a similar book produced for the referee?

Would people want such a book I wonder?

 

[MJD]

There is one planned, and possibly one for gearheads too, but those aren't definite yet.

 

[RainOfSteel]

Well, consider me a certain buy for deadtree versions of both of those books.

 

[mike wightman]

Me too

I can see it now: "The Complete Gearhead."

Although, I shutter at gearheads...I really like the cool things that they come up with...so if the book can be combined with something juicy like actual designs or discussions about design or have templates (like Naval Architect's from T4) this would be really valuable to be.

As for the Ref.'s book...I would buy it at the drop of a hat.

 

[Shadowdancer]

I agree that a Ref's guide is highly desirable and much needed -- or at least wanted.

A referee's guide would certainly be a welcome addition to my collection.

 

[Innskip]

A Referees guide certainly sounds like must have - obviously depending on contents.

Can I cast my vote in support of a T20 Referee's Manual, too?

How many times am I allowed to vote? If more than once, I'll start by casting one billion votes in favor . . .

What he said.

 

[kafka47]

I guess I had better add my vote...so make the tally now 3 billion (European standard).

I think it's a no brainer. If you've got a player's book with all the stuff relevant to players, then you need a referee's book with all the stuff relevant to GMs.

Though of course, the guidebook isn't out yet, and if the Ref's guide takes as long to come out as the Guidebook does (it's been a year since the playtest files were first posted), then we wouldn't be seeing it for a another year or two - assuming it's already being written right now.
