@barnee If a realistic opportunity to do Sealion is on the table,I want the factory,and to a lesser extent,the NB in normandy.I also like to eliminate the french inf/art so they can’t be taking holland.If allies land in normandy later they have to be dealt with even if it is still owned by france.
OH JOY!!

anniversary was limited run, so no, this will not happen, I can still buy Pac a year later at the same price. They may drop these in like a year or 2 when the next best thing is ready, but I doubt it even then, as this is probably the masterpiece, anything else will be different. And to be honest, other than rule changes, what can they add now without going 39 or maybe pre-war? I may be wrong, but my bet is anyone buying copies to sell either wasted a tonne of money or are going to be selling them at cost if they are lucky (i would never give someone full price for a game even if it wasnt opened when I can buy my own at a store)

My local Hobbytown store isn’t getting the game until Thursday. They said Wizards has been really bad with meeting their shipping demands lately, and this is one of the largest retailers of M:TG in the Midwest. Just made me think they would have it because of their size. In fact I bought Pacific from that same store the Saturday morning before it was officially due to release. I’m kind of pissed it wasn’t there this morning, at least I should still have it for my all-day game on Saturday.
-
from what I’ve read the best places to get this game early are the small specialty game stores. The one I got it had even had it cheaper than alot of the online places plus I didnt have to pay shipping and picked it up yesterday.

I GOT MY GAME!!! When I went to get groceries I came and saw my GAME!!! THE MAP IS SWEET. Im busy today but tommorow ill try to take pictures. I did get it from coolstuffinc.
-
I buy 6 copies and hand them out to choice people who deserve one. Also to support the product.
-
wow! If your undying commitment to this game isnt demonstrated enough by how much time you spend on this site buying 6 copies of this game ought to totally seal the deal. Say…… IL are you Larry Harris’s alter ego?
-
Bruda, I would agree that is who Imperious Leader is! He is who Larry Harris wants to be but is constrained by the people at WoTC. For example, his maps are awesome but he always clashes with the minor technicalities of the game and would like the game more complex. I believe he is Larry’s way to vent the frustration at this game yet still act like he is reigned in by his distributor. Brilliant!
-
hand them out? what qualifies such a gift, as next release I may just aim at that lol.
-
I ordered from coolstuffinc and I checked today my status is shipped out on 8/24. Since I live in Western US I won’t get mine (according to UPS tracking) until Monday 8/30 :cry:
Another guy in my group ordered it from a local store for $12 more and got it on 8/23. I learned my lesson, $12 is worth getting it early!!!
The optimist in me says that by time I get it all the errors will be found and the first errata will be available and I can play a more accurate first game.
-
For P1940 I ordered from coolstuff and got it a day early.
Stuff happens, I guess.
-
I pre-ordered from Coolstuffinc earlier this month, it will be at my house tomorrow!
-
Huh, I thought with six copies you could just string them end to end and play an unfathomably epic version of the game.

Except the Americas don’t line up

Anyone know when FMG ships/shipped theirs? I preordered from them to support everythign they do, paid more, but nothing yet. I love those guys and everythign I’ve ordered before from them was fairly quick. I’m assuming this was a WOTC problem with shipping maybe and it’s just back-logged? Anyone else who ordered from FMG seen anything yet?
-
FMG got them yesterday….he stated in another post that he bought 85+ copies and got them on Monday (he seemed a little annoyed that all the local little stores got them first…)
-
Thanks man! I saw that other post too right after my other reply! Cannot WAIT! :-D
-
GOt mine from CoolStuffinc TODAY!!! Tommorow Im having a game with my Buddies. Ill take pics after every round to show how it turns out.
-
Notified today by Fairplaygames that my order has been processed. Ordered one AAE1940, one AA1942 (extra pieces to share with a friend), and four sets of table tactics new units. Got free shipping for purchasing $125.00 or more. Maybe by Monday so we can play Europe during our tuesday session.

Yea the cheap price is one thing thats good. This store had it on sale for $76, I also had another $15 off in coupons, grand total of $61 and change is not bad. Guess thats worth the wait, drove by another small store in my town had them for $90.
-
Got mine last night when the local hobby shops received their shipments. One nice unexpected feature is that the back of the rulebook has a nice two-page comparative chart of all the unit types for all the nations in Global, with pictures (drawings, not photos) and with the names of the historical units on which they’re based.
