Preordering CKG with other items

Post by cturner »

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this but I didn't see a more appropriate area.

If I preorder the CKG along with other items will the order ship only when the CKG is done (which is what I would prefer to save on shipping) or be split into two shipments, one now, one when the CKG is done?

And also, I can't seem to find any info as to what printing of the rules the Castles Keeper Screen is for. Since it lists having all the character class abilities on it does this mean it has the new version of the barbarians abilities?

As far as pre-ordering, I asked the same question, but I haven;t received an answer yet... hopefully someone reading this thread will know!

As far as the screen goes, I recently picked it up, and I can confirm it has the 4th printing abilities, including the new ones for Monks and Barbarians.

It's a conditional answer. If the pre-order is going to be released soon, then they will sometimes hold the rest of the order to send at once and save on shipping costs. If it is going to be a while, they will sometimes ship the items in stock and the pre-order after release.

But again, that all depends on the conditions in play at the time the decision or order is made.

More than that only the Trolls can answer.

I believe, that if you order something and pre-order the CKG, the default is to send them out in two separate shipments. However, an easy way to alleviate this is with a quick email to Steve (troll@trolllord.com) and let him know that you would prefer to have them mailed together.

I will drop by Steve's this afternoon and apprise him of this query. Not sure what he is doing this weekend? Sleeping I bet.

We generally ship in two shipments, unless, like googleplex said, the orders are close. But the CKG is too far out, 8 weeks or thereabouts, so these orders will go out separately.
