First off I want to say that I really enjoy Adament's products: I have most of the original Thrilling Tales for d20 as well as the Mars series and the Imperial Age products. When the Savage Worlds Thrilling Tales book was announced I preordered it. I love it. But...
My Secret Squadron membership has much to be desired. The membership promises "As a Secret Squadron member, you're entitled to receive each and every Thrilling Tales 2nd Edition product released for a full year from your subscription date, filling your in-box with pulse-pounding Savage Worlds pulp action every month!
Adamant Entertainment will release at least one new Thrilling Tales support product each and every month: Adventures, supplements, settings, classic serials and radio shows... and more, coming directly to you!"
In November members received the Radio Marauder. On December 31 we received the Mayan Coins. Then nothing in January. On February 6th we received the first installment of the Undersea Kingdom with the promise of weekly updates. It is now April - no weekly updates much less anything for March, not even an email to members with an explaination or an apology.
As I have said, I really enjoy Adamants products and want to keep supporting them; but I cannot recommend this product: unkept promises and poor communications
At this point I would not recommend purchasing a Secret Squadron Membership, just wait to see if anything is published for Thrilling Tales for the year and purchase the items you want. You will still be suppporting Adamant, but not wasting your money.
