'we have had no takers at all for the special launch weekend'

As a retailer myself (not in the gaming industry) I find it difficult to understand why anyone would support a product that has been sold direct to the bulk of your potential customers by the manufacturer at a discounted price first, then offered to you, to likely sit on your shelves (or the portion of any order that will return you a net profit) gathering dust.

Putting time and effort into 'selling up' a range that has already had the cream taken from it seems counter productive.

Not trying to have a dig at anyone – I just struggle with the concept, especially when business is getting harder all the time for retailers.

I'll happily have it explained to me by anyone with higher knowledge! :-)

Well, the wait is over and we just unpacked our first delivery of Dungeon Saga: The Dwarf Kings Quest from Mantic Games, quite possibly their finest work to date. To celebrate this, we are running a special offer over the release weekend, 15% discount so £42.50 GBP.

Weekend Offer

Full details here.

The game comes in a lovely book-style case, and is jam-packed with miniatures, counters, rooms and corridors, and accesories. The game is played with a Games Master managing the bad guys and a team playing the questing adventurers. Similar in some ways to Heroquest/Warhammer Quest.

Mantic have promised a raft of expansion products as time goes on, adding new challenges and game modes to your Dungeon Saga. The first of these will be Adventurer's Companion, which will add an AI system for solo and fully co-operative play, the ability to create unique characters from scratch using any model in your collection, the tools you need to design your own dungeons, and much more!
