ATOT Effect needed

[TehMac]

So, there's a publishing company out there called OspreyPublishing, if you're into military history you might have heard of them.

Every month they host a book vote contest where peeps get to vote a book they'd like to see published. It doesn't mean they haven't already begun work writing the book, it's kinda irrelevant, but it is useful, because a lot of books end up getting published by them that have the majority vote.

So, for this month, a book I have constantly been asking for has appeared on the vote charts:

Pre Feudal Scots

If everyone could go to Osprey Publishing's Site and scroll down to where it says "Book Vote" and vote Pre Feudal Scots, you would be able to influence the publishing of a mighty interesting book.

Leading at 42 =]

 

[TehMac]

Now it's leading at 44% :Q This is frickin hilarious. Maybe the pubs will see how in demand this book is and get it out the door. That would be pwnage.

"Armies of the Visigothic Kingdom" seems more to my taste and would be interesting to me, but may as well ATOT vote to help a brudder out

Well thanks man, there's no guarantee they will or will not publish it, it was losing it anyway, I wanted that book too, but I did a vote on a different computer, and it was lagging anyway. So I decided to support the scots, because it had a chance, and the time period is absolutely brilliant to study.

LOL, yeah, I think if it was well done, it'd be a best seller, Osprey has good quality, and they wouldn't put it up if they didn't think they could make a profit. But amusing to think of it.

YES on both accounts. *raise fist in air*

Yeah, I hope this beats out the Balkan Wars.


No offense to anyone from the Balkan Wars, but a one year war with bolt action rifles with Cholera doing the most damage is hardly exciting to me, and that was the competitor with this book.


But thanks everyone for voting, if you haven't voted, do so now, let's see if we can get some sort of record out of this.


If we haven't already. :Q

Same here. Got to help out a fellow ATOTer though.

I'd actually be interested in the book too.
