AndyM Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! I'd just like to say that I don't have it yet. Just wanted to chime in - as sad as that makes me. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamePhil Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! Haven't reached the Super-Skills section, yet, but it's a good enough read to keep me going through it so far. Lot's of interesting stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! Wait a minute: the "Defenders Of Justice" crew is selling this book at GenCon, but their Art Director hasn't even seen it yet?! Where's the justice?

Steve Long Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! Glad to hear you're all enjoying the book! Well, all accept Andy. But he'll see it soon enough. We just about sold out at GenCon, where it was well-received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starblaze Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! When will it be available at the online store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! In about a month, after the retailers have had a chance to sell it. That's standard for all new Hero releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildcat Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! I picked it up just after Vanguard (we Game together)- In fact he got copy 1 I got Copy 2 from our FLGS. I just have to say that I am SOOOOOO Please with this new book. Steve you ROCK!!! The Super Skills, the new Expansion on the Skills ... Sheesh just Everything... Thanx!!! I've always loved Dark Champions back in the day, and also Danger Interantional, as a Modern version of Hero - Now I have 5th's version of them, and I'm so excited that I've put my Champions game on hold, and will be running a Heroic level Game using Dark Champions. It'll be base mostly on Stargate SG1 with a bit of Sliders thrown in, all with a heavy Cyber/Techno Mega Corp overtone. WC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Long Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! Thanx for the kind words, Wildcat! Good luck with the game. When does it get released to the FLGS?? Once it ships from the printer (as it did last Friday, the 13th ::cue ominous music:, it's out of our control. From the printer it ships directly to the distributors. How long it takes to get to them depends on all sorts of factors (respective locations, weather, truckers' strikes...). How long it takes the distributor to repack the books for shipment to stores that have ordered them depends on the distributor's efficiency, workforce, and such. Then the books are shipped to the stores, and all those shipping factors come into play again. All in all, most stores seem to get our books 1-2 weeks after they ship from the printer, but it really varies. As you can see from some of the posts on this thread, it's already reached some stores.

ShinHakkaider Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Re: I have it! I have it! Next to CKC this is probably the best of the HERO Suppliments to come out. The first DC as pretty good, but this thing is AWESOME. Super-Skills, that's all I'm sayin'... ...Ok, just one more thing, SON OF A BITCH MUST PAY.
