Exactly what it says above!  The finished files have all gone off to the printers, so everything is on course for our planned release at the Salute show on 22nd April.  Barring any unforeseen random issue with the files, we should get confirmation back from the printers that everything is OK early next week and we'll then have a confirmed date for delivery of the printed books.

We will be taking pre-orders for BKCIII, but we'll put up information about that once everything is confirmed by the printers.

Not long now folks...

When are we going to find out about the price?
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

We're waiting on the final printing costs before deciding that, but I suppose a question is 'What would people expect to pay?'  It's a softback, 176 page book in full colour, containing all of the rules, 49 army lists, 15 scenarios, QRS sheet, etc.  Everything for gaming the whole of WWII in one book.

Other WWII sets on the market would be Bolt Action (£30 + army books at £15 each?), Chain of Command (£22), Battlegroup (£20 + army books @ £30 each), Spearhead (£28), etc.

From memory BKC and BKC2 were £20, but that was a while ago, so £25-30 would be reasonable

Steve J

Yep, the last one was £20 IIRC. So today I would have thought £25 sounds reasonable plus P&P.

I was thinking about the £25 mark, maybe with a pre-order deal for the launch.
