People had actually wanted them the same so you could shuffle them together...
But each person have there own preference that is for sure.
Off topic kind of but just love this show.
Hello,
As long as it won't cause any hiccups with my shipment (just in case it is still in que) I would like to cancel the campaign subscription.
I only plan to start up the subscription around the map releases. Then when get more money maybe start it up full time again. At the very least buy them PDF for iPad.
Thank you,
Sean
This thing was released and now already out of print, second print I guess is coming, and I totally missed the news on it.
Looks like a good game to me. Does anyone have direct experience with it?
I would vote for multiple colored bases.
If possible keep them kind of subdued though. NO neon or yellow. Not a fan of yellow. :O)
I would say definitely have the play surface at least 4 foot across. With Additional 6 inches or so on each side for players. Personal opinion.
You mentioned Geek CHic.
They have a sale going on right now of in stock items.
The "Portal" or "Spartan" to me are reasonably priced. At least that is what I would get if I did it again instead of the "Sultan" I have.
THe Portal is about the thickness of a regular kitchen table. I saw some of their tables in this range that were going for $2,100. THese were 4' X 6' play area (actual width 4'7" X 6'8").
The Spartan to me though would be a great game store table. Storage underneath for different terrain that is built at the store...
My Own Opinion anyways.
Happy Birthday Cosmo.
I like this advance notice. Awesome!
Saw the Colossal Red Dragon sell in an auction at Gencon for close to $200. I am sure that was just a production one as well.
On iTunes $9.99.
Only 56 min though. I still bought it though.
Not that bad.

Mostly because I can't stand the three movies this shows characters(mostly) are from and that Ahsoka will more then likely be dead by the time the third movie's timeline comes around also keeps me from getting too interested.
So they are doing a series that takes place after episode 3's timeline after all?
Are you talking about after the third movie?
If so the timeline for the show I'd between the second and third.
If that's not what your talking about .... Never mind. ;-)

This might or might not change your mind, but over here, Lisa Stevens said this:
Lisa Stevens wrote:
With the Heroes and Monsters set, WizKids has set it up so you should be able to get a complete set. The reason why they can't guarantee it is that the process of packing boxes and cases is done by a human. And humans make mistakes. So even if you should be able to get a complete set, you might not because a human put the wrong rare in the certain box or put the wrong brick in a case. Humans make errors and thus making guarantees about what you might or might not get is not very practical. So we are using the only verbage we can...that you should get nearly all of them. The truth is that a lot of people will get complete sets in each case. But some won't. And it will be because of human error.

Thanks for the reply but I only WANT a few certain miniatures. SOme don't interest me.
On more consideration I would also like to cancel the RPG subscription as well.
SO keeping Adventure Path, Companion, Gamemastery Cards, and Gamemastery Maps.

But as a guy who studied Theoretical and Applied Communication, let me tell you that a name is not everything, but it is most of it.
That said, the app looks nifty and useful. Hate to say it but from what I read this is why Apple's app store does get a lot of the developers developing for it. Why sometimes you won't see an app for Android or other non apple smartphones.
Then people complain.....
Just my two cents from the article I have read on why Apple App store is successful over others...

If there are other examples, can you send order numbers? Thanks Vic for your time. SOrry Uninvited Ghost for Thread Jacking.
I don't have an order number for the other one so sorry Vic. It was a quoted shipping amount so I canceled the 4 figure Hero box from your new miniature line because I didn't want to pay that shipping...so guess this one wasn't a "happen" but was going to happen....
As to some orders that have a larger discount on record than what was shown shipped...
As to worrying about it. Not really it was more of a curiosity...except for one of the orders which seems I got a partial one but sooooo long ago....
The first three were just strange.....

Ahhh, Vic. Im not speculating. I'm talking about experience from your shipping.
Got charged $19 sometimes it has been $16 but both times I received a Medium Flat rate shipper with the stuff. So not an estimate. Sorry. Do you want to shoot me an order number? I looked through a few of your recent Priority packages, and didn't find anything like that.
There was order 1759428; we quoted you $19.88 for that when it was going as two packages (and it also qualified for the first $10 shipping promotion, so we'd have charged $9.88)... but then you cancelled some items, thus making it fit into one box, for which we *should* have given you a new shipping charge of $12.50 (again, prior to the first $10 promotion), although customer service neglected to recalculate the shipping charge at the time you made the cancellations, so we charged the higher price and then gave you credit for the discrepancy after the fact; ultimately, we ended up charging you $2.50 for shipping it, which is what we'd have charged you if that had been how the order was set up from the beginning.
The other one I found that was close was order 1666390; we would have charged $12.50 for that, but it also qualified for the first $10 shipping promotion, so we charged you $2.50 for that one too. Well the one on my mind is the $19.88 one. It only arrived in one package. It was shipping quoted as the $19.88 and only through some complaints / questions was some of that refunded. THis was after it was already shipped so it didn't get down to one box because items were canceled.
As to the other I'll look through them. Probably not tonight though.
Yea I would of been charged $19.88 and then only paid $9.88 because of the shipping discount. But the shipping discount shouldn't mean to charge more for the said shipping. THe box was a medium flat rate shipper. Like I said I only got some of the shipping paid back after I complained.
Oh as a side note that order 1666390 fit into a Medium Flat rate shipper. So that was a lot of items in it as well as a hardcover.
THen the order that had the 4 Figure miniature box just released was going to be $16.00 for shipping via priority mail.
Oh well. Another question though why does most of my orders show something greater than a $10 shipping discount. All my receipts sure as heck only showed the $10. Is this a accounting change down at a later time from my invoice?

Right now, I'm looking at buying Key Largo, and adding it to my monthly shipping. Estimate for Standard Postal Delivery: 52.48. Estimate for USPS Priority Mail: 41.55.
I find the cheapest shipping option varies quite a bit. Ditto!

I can understand to charge a LITTLE extra but that's a little crazy. Or even if they use their own boxes....but oh well.
I love the stuff usually but shipping is killer. War store .com only charges a flat $5.95 then makes the difference themselves. Even offers a pretty substantial discount.
I know Paizo is doing pretty good not having to go wholesale when they sale direct so the whole shipping thing just bumfuzzles me.
But that is me.

I was under the impression that this only applied to the Exhausted Condition.

Most board game companies would do something like this.

Oh, and you don't needed an external USB drive on a rooted nook. I have no idea where you got that idea. Doesn't sound like your upgrade for the iPad 1 is right. Might want to take it into an Apple Store.
I have a ton of memory on mine still.

Also, did the same thing happen in the comic?
I am still enjoying both of the story lines though.
Yes they are great!
Like I mentioned before I have finally been reading the comics because a guy at work said they deviated from the story to much.
Yes they have deviated but personally I like that they have! I now have two different story lines I can enjoy.
Hello,
I would like cancel this if I may. Not sure if it is the reason why the shipping would be $16.65 for Priority Mail but it is a bit to much for me to pay for a Medium Flat rate shipper ($14.20) that the subscriptions seem to come in.
The standard rate shipping is taking way to long for my tastes as well so will just have to pick up the Heroes box at a FLGS.
Thanks for your time.
They haves different image on the back side. The back side is generally flat but the front side is raised makIng stacking difficult.

I hope the little girl was found by some non walkers and that's what they well find. A settlement of some sort.
I haven't read the comics. Do have an App for them but $8.99 for six comics.

It would probably be sooner than November 1st but you should be safe if you come back to re-suscribe on November 1st.
Of course after the Box set the next item in the subscription was pushed back to a December release anyways.

(this is not a complaint about anything in the past, but 2 weeks notice would be great so I can manage all the bills!) We'll do our best to be extra-communicative here, but please keep in mind that we're not the publisher, and are therefore not as immersed in the chain of shipping, customs and delivery as we are with our own products, and we usually don't get two full weeks of notice ourselves. Me I am going to be purchasing Gift Certificates for this very reason leading up to the release.

I checked the shipping rate to your location for the items you have in your sidecart, and shipping looks to be placed at $12.96 (including the Beginner Box). This shipping price however does not include the art card sleeves, since our system doesn't know if those will be in before the shipment or not.
-Erik
Thanks Erik. I actually didn't know if I should of started another thread or not...
It sounds like it will be good to go then at current shipping estimate.
Bump:
Is there any chance. Can get an estimate of what shipping will be for what I have in side cart and subscriptions for Oct..
Trying to decide if I don't include Beginner box and buy at FLGS then get PDFs if it will be cheaper.
Currently Oct and Dec not giving me an estimate.
Does the Premium subscription offered on your site include the PDF's?
It doesn't specifically state it but then the PDF only subscription is $89.99 as opposed to the $125 for the Hard Cover Subscription...
Thanks for your time.
Otherworld Miniatures make some great looking miniatures but they are Pig Faced Orcs!
They do look sharp.
Pig Faced Orcs Command
Some might consider them on the expensive side but they are great. Plus he keeps releasing new old school type miniatures.

Anyway - thats a small gripe. Love this book!
Its actually working better for me than most of the Paizo PDF's. Or at least speed wise on rendering.
Might try re downloading it.
Its on iTunes right now for $14.99.
I could swear awhile back it was $9.99 but....definitely $14.99 now.
I live in Alaska and shipping tends to be more expensive despite being the same price on USPS sites.
I enjoyed it. I watched in at a film festival here in Alaska at a theater that offers micro brews.
So it could of been the micro brews that made it better.
Thank you.
If I may one more request. What would my shipping be for the October subscription shipment? As of right now it is blank with no estimate.
Trying to decide if the subscription with the shipping for the box set is cheaper than buying it at a LGS and then buying the PDF's separately.
Thank you for your time on this!

Not only this month but leading up to December....Battle Cases.
I am surprised I didn't see it before this though....have to stay up on things.
Any one know any more details than provided in the description?
Hello,
Could I have the items that are ready to ship in my side cart ship and use any store credit available for any expenses needed.
Plus as a reminder for anything over $100 get first $10 of shipping covered. WHich with the Tomb of Horror it nearly covers it all. :O)
I was about to do it myself but it pulls everything up in the side cart and then says nothing will ship until they all arrive so just making sure.
Thank you.
EDIT: Oh we have time but I reduced my Battles subscription down to one subscription instead of the two. I updated it at the bottom of subscription page but it isn't correcting.
I think I recall that you guys did plan on sending out emails with confirmation on how many right before shipping but thought I just be safe.
Well Eric your resold me on getting the box set.
Subscription reinstated.
Bringing up an old post....but recently found this series and am enjoying it throughly.
I have not got to the episode yet but guess one of them he dresses up as his character for Firefly for Halloween. :O)
Vic Wertz wrote: Stuff Welcome back Vic.
Thank you.
One unpleasant side effect is my shipping went up for November from $6 something to $10 something with the Campaign Setting no longer included.
Is this correct?
