News Re: Physical BroadSwords #3 and Beyond (and Counterfeiters)

I have news regarding the counterfeiter situation, and it's not great. I received the a copy of what they were selling yesterday and it turns out that the book isn't a counterfeit, but the real deal.

Hey all,

Just a heads up, but the BSM2's that are now on Amazon aren't the real deal. They are counterfeits. I'm currently in the middle of dealing with the issue with Amazon, but if you plan on purchasing one there, just know that it's not from me and it's likely that the content inside is not my own.
