Quote:
Whether you've playing for years, or just recently joined the Crusade the rules presented here will help you in both preparations for games to come and give you the necessary tools to deal with most any scenario that develops at the gaming table. We are roughly 8 weeks from completion on this massive project and are at last confident that it is taking a form and shape both structurally useful and meaningful, but yet one that does not interfere with the game you've been playing for so many years. Castles & Crusades' hallmark trait is its simplicity, derived from the very versatile Siege mechanic. The CKG reflects that game style and philosophy.

Friggin maybe 8 weeks from finishing the CKG!!!! I'm friggin so excited! Come on guys!!!

Hey Steve at 154 eastern time the store was charging $26 for postage to the usa. I think a bug exists?

Ordered...and the post office probably jacked their rates again.

Flat rate should be at least 2/3rds less than what he stated. I'm a-guessin' it's a bug.

Another questions, Steve. For those of us who bought that CKG preview at Troll Con, how do we get that discount?

Someone else pointed that out and I fixed it. I had chosen GREATER than rather than LESS than for that weight cost.

Give it another go. The CKG should charge 11.70 for anywhere in the US.

Thanks for the heads up!

Steve

It came up almost $15 for just the CKG when I ordered Steve.

I tried to pre-order and setup a TLG order account. At checkout, the shipping charge did not get carried over to PayPal, so I canceled.

Looks like Brian has more work to do.

Lemeno when it's ready and I'll retry.

Thanks!

Given the newspaper stories lately, I'd say a more contentious state.

Hey, back out, clear cache and refresh. There are a few odd things about your order. The CKG is only marked at 3 pounds. So the 3.3 is off a bit. But that 3 pounds was marked at 14.50 before I changed, it has been changed to 11.70.

Give that a whilrigig and see what happens.

And what happened in Oregon? MY head has been buried in the sandy internet these past few weeks.

If I pre order the CKG along with other available products, will the available products ship now, or will the whole order be held up until the CKG comes out?

It's already been processed through paypal steve. Dumping the cache and stuff won't do me any good at this point. Though I have no problem canceling the order and redoing it (and adding in FoB) if that's what it takes.
And what has been going on with Oregon is the usual. People here are so liberal that they managed to pass a tax law to fun schools and such, but the law is written so that it's put about a third of the small business out of business and has another 25-40% teetering on the edge of kaput-land. The rest is the usual spit into the wind and then gripe when it comes back and hits 'em in the face.

Out of curiosity, are any of the Chapter 1 previews still available?
