This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: GrayPumpkin;234633Grrr... Went to my FLGS today and they didn't get it in, apparently they were out at the local warehouse, which probably means the haven't gotten it in yet, either that or they've all been shipped elsewhere.

Since I stared writing professionally for the RPG Industry, I have learned the the entire process it not as straight forward I thought it was. Then that shouldn't surprise me considering all that the company of my day job has to do get our metal cutting machine out the door.

Quote from: GrayPumpkin;234633Update: My perseverance pays off, I managed to find a place in town that got 1 copy in. Hope this dosen't mean there was some sort of shortage problem, cause, I'm just a few pages in, but so far it's a very inspiring read, and thing deserves to get some love.

Hooray! First one out the door. Hope you find the rest of it enjoyable.

Quote from: estar;234803I think it because Goodman gives FLGS  first dibs. However from my experience with Badabaskor and watching the DCCs going through it can be all over the place.

Interesting - I googled and I see various US FLGSs have it, but no sign of it here in the UK yet.  I guess I'll check in a couple of weeks.

Same here in Germany. Even worse, the biggest distributor, Pegasus Spiele, seems to have kicked Goodman Games out of their catalogue. There are only four items in their backlist, and they are all marked down 40-50%.
Swords & Wizardry & Manga ... oh my.
(Beware. This is a Kickstarter link.)

I'm just waiting on a little bit of disposable income before I go out and pick this up.

Looks like it arrives in UK stores tomorrow - I have just placed my order with Leisure Games of north London, who have by far the best mail order service I know (for one thing p&p was only 80p).  I had actually been to LG on Monday, but no PoL and it's a three hour round trip so I decided mail order was best.  Looks like Orcs Nest are getting it in too.

I just got an email from my FLGS and my copy is in!  Sweet!

My FLGS does not currently have it, but they're ordering it for me, so I'll be getting it eventually.
