[e23-announce] Tabletop Adventures: Overlord's Birthery - Inventory Reduction Sale!

[e23-announce at sjgames.com]

A message from the downtrodden workers at Tabletop Adventures:

Greetings from Tabletop Adventures! We are pleased to announce the celebration of the birthday of the Overlord, and also that of his gracious consort. Back in April, the Overlord noted that another PDF publisher had a sale ostensibly to reduce his inventory. This caught his fancy, so the Overlord has declared that for his birthday, Tabletop Adventures will have its own Inventory Reduction Sale! All our electronic products will be offered at a discount of no less than 20% from now through the end of November.

While we are pleased for our customers, the minions are very concerned about the report we are going to have to give at the end of the sale. We are afraid that the Overlord does not quite understand this 'electronic sales' thing. At the end of the Inventory Reduction Sale, if we cannot show that the inventory has been reduced, Bad Things Will Happen.

So the minions request that you please take advantage of this sale! Simply go to our publisher page for discounts on all our PDF products. At the end of the month we will announce to the Overlord the number of sales in his honor in triumphant voices, and then cheer loud and long while the herald proceeds quickly through the 'remaining inventory' information. Thank you for your support!

For the Overlord,The good people of Tabletop Adventures ( http://www.tabletopadventures.com )
