I just got a glimpse of the cover of this book in the May '06 (for July '06) Previews catalog..... O_O Cool!

For those who don't have the catalog, the cover is of a number of winged demons (?), some perching in a nearby rooftop like gargoyles (in fact, I may have mistook them for Gargoyles at first glance), with one, wings spread, flying down to attack the POV.
Sweet.
I've added this book to my order. I may see it about 2 weeks after it hits the Strat.

I plan to buy the Phase World instalment for certain...

Maybe our current voting for CCW CEO will have some effect on how the Three Galaxies reacts to the situation...

eh, Carl? ;)

Sorry, I can't find one online. Try the Previews site.

Go to a comic store, pick up a previews magazine and flip to the role playing games section. Lazy bum. :D

I know, but it seemed people were still a little confused. I just wanted to help out.

Don't worry darkmax, there will be. I'm sure the one in the preview is "not the actual art"

Saw the Hades cover btw Carl - it wasn't in color, but it reminded me of the Gargoyle Wars CCG expansion cover that got turned into a Rifter cover - only some of the Gargoyles are coming right at you. (edit - and obviously there's no Triax Black Knight Robot in the Hades cover)

Also, the font for the book was real weird for Palladium - not just the font but the fact that it stretched across like the top half of the cover. It was odd looking, I suspect that'll change before final print (but maybe not).

Unlikely - Previews is a pretty standard trade mag in the US (and beyond?). My LGS would be crippled without it.

You wouldn't find it there anyway, it pretty much only shows up in Comic shops as far as I know. It's purpose is for orders to be taken and shipped off to distributors.
