Reminder: This new edition has Solitaire rules for either side (automated bot).
Also... the Caverns Of Cinder expansion for you Shadows Of Brimstone owners, and an X-Wing Starviper pack.
Great price....
Wish they had a store in Canada. I'd be all over this sale. Not sure how I'd explain it to the boss though...being the start of the holiday season.
Thanks for the heads up on this! I've been eyeballing this game for a few years now and at this price it's a no-brainer.
A cool $7.50 to ship to Rhode Island? Sold!
Thanks for the heads up! More early Christmas presents for me. ^-^
And it's here! The box is heavy - over 2lbs!

Big mapboard. O0
Make sure it's not torn at the folds. IIRC, they had an issue with the paper separating/tearing from the board in some cases. Think they mentioned going through and manually checking all their stock & replacing ones that needed it but best to be on top of it, right?
The look great but some of the fancy GMT mapboards I've handled required a little extra care. Especially the way they fold out length-wise.
Thanks for the heads up, Nefaro, I'll check it out. Sadly I can't play it yet because I have nowhere to set it up. :(

Don't worry, the rules will probably take a bit of time anyway, if you plan on playing solo using the automated opponent rules on top.
It has a Vassal module if you don't have the space but are desperate to play. Would be a shame not playing on the pretty mapboard (and cards - why do I love cards so much?! :D ) .. but a boy's gotta do...

So I got this quite a while ago, but just opened it out of its shrink this afternoon.
I didn't realize just how heavy it was! I was wondering why in the hell it was so heavy for a standard sized box. Then I opened it...
Man alive, but GMT did an exceptional job on this one! First the components seem great. Beautiful counters, thick rulebook with an insert for the solo rules! Pawing through the counters and get to the map...a mounted map! Are you shitting me?!
Thick, heavy box.
Yeah, this game looks like a real keeper. Thick, meaty, solid components, solo play (with rules included!)...hell yeah! O0 :buck2:
That's a beautiful game. One on my list to play at some point.
I'm going crazy not having a game table. I've promised myself that this spring construction begins. 8)
Once upon a time, I had a gaming table...
