OMM came back from another great Fall In, rejuvenated by seeing all the fantastic wargames and chatting with the creative folks behind the games. Conventions really do inspire us here at OMM to greater efforts.

Then, we arrived back at the shoppe and found some bad, ugly, and good news awaiting us.

The Bad…

DBA 3.0 will not be shipping from the U.K. until 28th November, which means it will appear here at the shoppe in early December. We will ship it out as soon as it arrives. We apologize for the exasperating delay, but can only await the shipment.

The Ugly…

On Thursday, our ISP lost their power distribution system, and is operating on a limited backup. It is S-L-O-W to get to our website (and many others) and slow to go through it. Sometimes, it goes offline, then comes back. Email is also hit or miss, as they start the repair process. So, if you find the OMM website slow and unresponsive, not to worry. The ISP says things will be back to normal in a day or two.

The Good…

New items arrived, while we were away – those orders have been shipped out. And we have a number of items coming into the shoppe in the next couple of weeks…
