Yes, it shipped last Friday, right on schedule. We'll have it at GenCon, for example.

Yay!

I was dying to read the playtest, but my access lapsed. Now I'll get my fill! And my players will get theirs! [dramatic music]

Re: Sweden -- sadly, no. Once a book leaves the printer we have no control over it. Sometimes they get where they're going quickly, sometimes it takes an oddly long time.

Oh, well . . . It'll get here when it gets here, and no sooner.

But I need it now!!!!!

Thanks bunches, Steve. :)

It is NEVER in the online store until 30 days after it has been made available to the retailers by agreement with the retailers.

My game store is ususally one of the first to have it, alas, no luck yesterday. I'll keep looking though.

Even having a history with Fantasy Hero and a familiarity with Star Hero, this is the first Genre book I've actually been dying to read since Champions. I never owned the original DC (though I snagged a few 4th ed supplements in anticipation). So I really want to see it.

And my FLGS doesn't know when they'll get it in. I guess I'll have to wait for it to show up on the online store if they don't have anything in the next week or two...

:angst:

It hath arrived! Unfortunately, I'm at work and cannot zoom over to get the heroey goodness for another 98 minutes (Plus 30min drive time).
