Solution: two copies!
Always my fallback! Average is 3. Signed sealed, Sealed, and Reader. Looks like I'm getting away with 2 this time.
Nice, haha!
But bring back the limited-signature runs for Atlantis!!
Yeah, let's make some sacrifices to the gods!

Re: HYPERBOREA: Players' Manual, Referee's Screen, and more!
We shipped a batch of orders that did not include the referee's screen. After the screen arrived, we went straight into shrink-wrapping those. Most of that work is now complete, so I expect to go back into shipping on Thursday. Thank you!
Can you confirm (or disconfirm) the rumor that one of your body mods was having a shrink-wrap gland implanted?
I will confirm / disconfirm nothing!

Got the screen and my copy of Rats in the Walls. Super happy with everything. My players are going to love the evocative art on the GM screen.

Received my Players' Manuals (x4), Ref Screen and Rats yesterday: they look fantastic!

Got home to find the package of ASSH goodness waiting for me. I know what I'll be reading the next couple of days!
Jeff, wonderful job as usual.
So when can you give us a hint of what is coming next?

That's a lot of book when you order for six!

Re: HYPERBOREA: Players' Manual, Referee's Screen, and more!
Everything has arrived, safe and sound. 
PM vs the Hardback - smaller and lighter (but still durable), so it should travel well, which is key if you have a handful that you pass out at conventions like I do
PM - should be perfect for the table, easily flippable for quick reference.

Rats in the Walls and Other Perils looks great - a few interior pics (major spoilers)
