I hope you guys can use this opportunity to pick up a game or two that you've been wanting at a terrific price! Enjoy!
I'm very much tempted to grab Andean Abyss. I thought the game looked very cool to begin with, but balked at the price. For $35, I think it is a steal!
Thanks for the heads up SoM.
Andean Abyss is easily worth $35.
Holy crap, that means I can get all 3 Flying Colors games for under $75.00 ! ! ! Good thing I been holding out on them till now.

Yeah I saw that but added the 3rd one of the series just to see what would happen. They invoiced and charged me 50% off on all 3 but I'll wait until they ship to see if the card charges get revised. As long as they use Ship of the Line as the 3rd game I'm cool with that since its the cheaper of the 3.
That's kind of doing the office ladies a dirty, don't you think Double Deuce?
It's not like GMT is an automated corporate monster like Amazon, they are still a very much mom&pop hands-on operation.
The office ladies are already swamped with this sale, no need to try and sneak one by them IMO.
Good grief. Panzer is out of stock!

Not doing anyone dirty. I emailed them after placing the actual order to see what gives but haven't heard back to date so until I do I'm having to wait for the actual CC charges to process on my end to see what the final charges are. I'm figuring they are busy with the sale too as you mentioned so I understand delays are to be expected especially as it was heading into a weekend. I was gonna cancel the original order and submit 2 separate ones but come credit card companies still bill vendors for processing fees even for cancellations, like they do with chargebacks so left it as is.

That's a little harsh. And you don't need to be Amazon to have an ecommerce site that can handle something as simple as a two product limit on a coupon code.
If Double Deuce were trying to "sneak one by them", I doubt he would have posted about it here.

That was going to be my 1st choice. I have the originals by Yaquinto (sp) and have heard that GMT really took the game up a notch, especially in the game pieces. Not thrilled with the paper maps though. I'll have to break down and get it from another source before its only available on eBay and its starts seeing 2nd Edition SASL price ranges.
My copy of Panzer is still in shrinkwrap. I pre-ordered it as soon as it was announced but haven't gotten around to getting it on my table yet. I think that this game is better suited for miniatures though honestly. Is the Panzer-Mini's still available from the company that Jim Day founded? I'll have to Google it real quick- No, Lost Battalion games doesn't list it for sale any longer. I believe that Jim Day is reworking the rules for the miniatures version and will be updating that series of Panzer games next. I'd hold off for that, if and when it happens.
