Huzzah Huzzah! The books arrived in our warehouse today. Many thanks to all our patient customers who pre-ordered, and to the retailers. We will begin shipping ASAP. Customers in the US & Canada should get their copies by the middle of next week. Overseas customers a few days later. sammustafa.com This is a reminder that the "Early Order Discount" ($5 off) will apply for only one more week, so if you want to order them for $38, now's the time. After that, it settles in at the full retail price of $43. USD |

There was mention before about overseas suppliers. Any news on from who or when it will be available in Australia. I believe it has been mentioned before about the shipping cost. There seems to be, from all sites, higher then expected shipping costs to overseas customers. Or is the estimate on the high end and in reality we would expect it to be lower? Having said all that, with the dollar being where it is, its not to bad a price. |

Nic Robson at Eureka is your man in Oz. He will have it shortly. But yes, overseas shipping from the USA went up dramatically last year when they did away with the surface rate and made everything air mail. Sorry. |

Congratulations Sam, Was it Black Hat as the UK stockist? |
| 50 Dylan CDs and an Icepick | 11 Nov 2009 2:47 p.m. PST |
Black Hat has them (shortly), and I believe at least 4-5 other UK retailers, too. |

The books arrived in our warehouse today. You have a warehouse? Impressive. |

All along we thought that you were just a rules writer/regular guy and now find out that you're a warehouse tycoon. |
Lee Brilleaux  | 11 Nov 2009 3:48 p.m. PST |
I saw Sam at Fall In. First thing he said to me was, "I have a warehouse now! I am a warehouse mogul." He showed me the rules, which looked fabulous. All the same, it was the warehouse he was really chuffed about. |
| Streitax | 11 Nov 2009 3:52 p.m. PST |
No doubt because you've arranged to use up the extra space to store certain items of value you wish to keep incognito until shipment. My guess is there will be more rule-breakers than rules in that warehouse before long. And if Sam should mysteriously disappear some foggy night along the waterfront, well

Does anyone have a ruelset that allows us to game warehouses in 15mm? I have tried DBW but it was too abstract for my tastes, and the rules were so poorly written they required me to think about them, which is quite unacceptable. Also they did not allow me to game the great warehouse fire of 1897, so they are totally unrealistic. |

As of a couple of days ago Nic wasn't too sure when it would be showing up etc
I want my copy yesterday! TW. |

I leave this board for a few hours and look what happens
. sheesh. Did I say Warehouse? Sorry – typo. I forgot an "h". |
| Nick The Lemming | 11 Nov 2009 8:05 p.m. PST |
I hate warehouses. Always running off when there's a full moon, and then in the morning being full of blood and body parts etc. |
| Field Marshal | 11 Nov 2009 11:40 p.m. PST |
Excellent i look forward to Nic at Eureka getting them so i can order them! |

Wasn't "The Warehouses" the name given to the Nazi resistance fighters that never eventuated at the end of WWII? Max. |

Order placed, great catching up with at FI even if just for a minute. |

Great news. Do we know if the Aussie ones are comming out on Plane or Tramp Steamer? |
| 50 Dylan CDs and an Icepick | 13 Nov 2009 8:02 a.m. PST |
There is no surface mail from the US anymore; it's all Airmail. That's why it's gotten so damned expensive. The majority went out yesterday; the remainder are going out today. |
| Midpoint | 13 Nov 2009 8:48 a.m. PST |
Just put my order in for two copies with Black Hat. One for me, one for Jon/Blucher. |
| chipjaxgarrison | 17 Nov 2009 10:01 a.m. PST |
My copy of Lasalle showed up on my doorstep yesterday. What a great looking presentation. One of the best I have seen. |
| 50 Dylan CDs and an Icepick | 17 Nov 2009 11:12 a.m. PST |
I'll extend the "early order discount" thingy through the end of this week, for any last-minute holdouts! |
| Duc de Limbourg | 17 Nov 2009 11:49 a.m. PST |
Is there somewhere on the net a discription of a battle fought with Lasalle? |
| Maxshadow | 18 Nov 2009 12:27 a.m. PST |
Hi Duc, theres this one. link You have to join the Yahoo group and go to the photo's section. BTW I did and it was worth it. It seems like a good group too. regards Max |
