Does the physical purchase work from this website?

[redoctober45]

The book says "pre-order" and comes with a PDF.  Is this all valid and will I get a physical book too?

[Marine167]

I would like to know this as well.

I stumbled on this page after I saw Modiphius advertising the game. Unfortunately it would seem you do not get the PDF if you buy the physical book from my local game store or from Modiphius.

The store page here says in stock, but "pre order" does not raise my confidence level

[Marine167]

Actually doing some calculation revealed that:

* buying the book here + EU postage
* buying the PDF here and the book from my local game store

Results in the exact same price (ok, there is a dollar difference maybe).

Ordered it this morning and got an email say "The book is currently being printed and we expect it to be available to ship in late-September at the soonest.". So it will ship when it ships. I did get a link for the pdf in the same email.

The physical book has been produced. If you buy it from Wyvern you will be able to download a PDF copy from here. The late-Sept shipping message is an old one that hasn't been updated. Unless you really want both pdf and physical copy, you can probably get a physical copy faster from a Game Shop than through ordering online here.

Don't worry about the late-September shipping message; it's outdated. If you're eager to get your hands on a physical copy sooner, check out your local game shop; they might have it in stock by now.

This site isn't being updated and the company seems to have problems - here and on Discord. I wouldn't buy anything from them until they start talking to the public again. There are people on Discord who ordered through the site here and have received no product, no answers, etc.

Wyvern is dead all bar the actual obituary

[Illuminatus_Prime]

Wyvern is not dead yet.  At least one of the Powers-That-be is checking in now and then, if only to delete the spam.

[Tarmor]

That's just an Admin or Mod... keeping the website going. The company itself is pretty much dead. On Discord people have complained of ordering pysical product from here and not getting it or any response to complaints. Rumour said the last remaining person in Wyvern as a company wanted out and nothing has be heard from him on Discord for a year+.

The book is listed as "pre-order" and includes a PDF, which seems accurate. However, I was wondering if, along with the PDF version, I will also receive a physical copy when it’s released, similar to how downloadable content works with Minecraft APK files, where you get both the digital version and updates.

Sorry mate, your only chance now for a physical book is either the secondary market (ie, ebay), or chance across a reseller who happens to have it in stock. Maybe Modiphius?

Amazon murdered Wyvern by preventing them from openly trading the RPG or even communicating with kickstarter backers during the acquisition of MGM Studios. All the staff have basically abandoned ship and moved on to keep themselves afloat and the only thing keeping Wyvern from disappering beneath the waves is the captain lashed to wheel.
