Starglider 2 Novella

I'm searching for a scan of this novella. English would be fine, German even better.

Is that your own scan? If so could we use it for HOL aswell and furthermore, could you upload the English one aswell?

I'm sorry, these aren't my scans. I've downloaded them a long time ago, but can't remember where. (If I search maybe I will find the page again )

For sure I can upload the english version too...

Please do They look decent enough to add them.

Edit : Since we don't have the permission from the one that originally scanned them, they can't be added to HOL. I might add them to the file server though

This is totally nonsense...
The guy who scans a manual/novella/etc. has NO rights on his scans.
The game maker has rights.
The publisher has rights.
The distributor has rights.
Etc.
But if I scan some copyrighted material I don't acquire ANY right at all. Anyone can "steal" my scans and publish them without my consent.

So PLEASE add them to HOL. You'll have no problems, as long as you have the maker/publisher/distributor permission.

That's true. Only moral reasons could (would) prevent you from using/linking it.

Well, that's how it's handled on HOL. No comment from my side about it. You can find them on the file server in the folder 'Amiga Documentation/Manuals/Game', if that makes more sense to you.

Exactly. You can (but are not bound to) politely ask the guy if you can publish the material. He shouldn't have any reason to disagree.

EDIT: of course you will thank the guy. On HOL there's a credits page/list.
