They will have a new US distribution center (Jan-Feb'08) (I heard something about the US Center being owned by FF which will help both companies US distribution). We will see how this affects US sales of both lines (as retailers will get bigger discounts ('08) and will want to push the games) the projection is to have the next set of terrain, production of the next race (5th)(don't know the name and any racial info is all rumor at this point), and info about the 6th race by April. Remember folks Protection is so that you can continue to expand without having your creditors coming in and taking your stuff The limited information I have is this:

I have been to several retailers in my area and can't even get a copy of the rule book.

If they stay in business I'll get new factions, books, etc., and if they go out of business I should be able to pick up sizeable armies for the three current factions at clearance prices. My group will still play the game in either case. My thoughts exactly Chris.

In all seriousness, has anyone gotten word on the implications to their already questionable approach to product distribution? Should I cry now or wait until the end?
