I LOVE this product. I've literally only just got this but I've been waiting for this product ever since it existed as a mythical preorder on several RPG retail sites. This seems very in depth and I wish I had this before I started running the game I'm in now; oh well, it'll be there for next time

Pre-orders only went up in December, so it'll most likely be another 2-3 months yet.

Still no word. The gap between pre-order and release of the print versions seems to have got longer with recent titles. Can't be much longer to wait now though!

Don't know why the admins/management don't give updates once and a while, even if it is to say it is delayed again. More updates on products would make me more incline to pre-order again in the future.

I think DarthMoose just meant in general. In better news, my FLGS had the DW dice, which I now have in my grubby little hands. Attachments:
