I hear tell of the Arano book too. So how much longer to wait for us mere mortals?

Out of our hands. I’m hitting the F5 button and as soon as it’s cleared to release it’ll be released.
If you appreciate how I’m doing, send me a tip: ko-fi.com/rayarrastia

What about those dice bags and other sweet swag? Thought I heard mention some might find it's way to the Catalyst shop? (At least, the possibility was being looked into...)

Doing my best to keep up.

I'm pretty sure that's the plan, that they'll be available on the store "at some point in the near future." Wish I had more clarity, but my sense is that they're not con exclusives.

Any idea on a Street Release?

High on my list of dates to confirm, along with dates for the reprints of both boxed sets, but should be soon, next month or so. I need to double-check with the fulfillment center before saying more.

CC:SW download on the site tonight, if at all possible. Apologies for the delay but, uh, it's been quite the 24 hours.

Great news that full prints of Alpha Strike Commander's Edition are floating around -> will buy when made available...will also buy new hard copies of Total Warfare and Techmanual when made available...looks like the latter is not too far away either :)

Thanks for keeping the updates/sneak peaks and info rolling in guys, your efforts are appreciated :)

So... I noticed a few things: you guys are selling the miniatures from both boxes separately at the con, you have alpha strike cards for succession wars and clan invasion.

Should we expect any of these as stand alone product available for sale outside of a con environment?

As far as the con is concerned; on CGL’s Instagram, one of the photo sets shows the minis in the vacuum formed trays from both AGOAC and starter box

So it's not just a display for the box sets?  You can actually buy them separately?

I'm surmising from what someone, I think Anthony Scroggins, said on Facebook is that this is just overstock. I would guess it's a supply for people who have botched miniature components in the boxes and they're just selling off some spare trays as overstock now that they're confident in production.

Not individually, but a complete set of just 10 minis, for $40.

We just had a productive meeting with the DriveThruRPG people, House Arano should be available this weekend finally. The copies we had At the show sold out in under 24 hours.

Out of idle curiosity, what are the differences between the copies you had at the show and the upcoming PoD edition?
