Trends, Statistics, and Predictions!

Based on their size at Gencon, and the never shrinking line into the retail area, I'd imagine FFG is doing fine.

I just hope that Ghosts doesn't effect my Warrior book coming out.

Well said Dread Pirate.

Ok... Here's a question of timing. Dawn of resistance is slated q4 2017 but is still showing in development. If we're going to see it before the new year, shouldn't it already be at the printer (or be there very shortly)?

Either someone hasn't updated the webpage or somebody has some explaining to do.

Canadian... oh sorry I was thinking thanksgiving... my bad...

+1 for canadian thanksgiving release of God please? (October 10th ish)

My God.

Ghosts of Dathomir is NOW SHIPPING!

Release date of October 12.

I never thought I'd see the day!

I think we are gonna see another product pile up at year's end like a couple years ago.

I think that's a high-probability guess, Mr. Pirate :P !

Well my wallet got a nice little break. Time to punish it during the holidays.

Probably a week or so later

Hey @Absol197 can you work up backwards from this to give predictions for other stuff based o n this new info?

I can try, although since everything else is still In Development , that makes it tougher. That stage of production is a lot more variable than the others, and actually contains some sub-levels that we don't see.

Give me until Monday or Tuesday, and we'll see what I can do :) (I'm off work today to get my car repaired, so I don't have my charts until Monday).

My wallet is going to feel the burn here in a couple of weeks. I've got a Disneyland trip in the middle of October, Halloween is prime horror movie DVD sale season, then Black Friday for more DVDs and now FFG finally gets around to shipping some **** books? Couldn't you guys wait until January or something?

I am surprised you don't have these charts on Google drive or Dropbox for easy access everywhere....

Part of it is because I don't actually know how to create, access, or operate something like a Google Drive or Dropbox. Not that I couldn't learn, but I've always been rather behind the times on technology.

But mostly? It's because 95%+ of all new updates (new book announcements, articles, and production steps) occur while I'm at work. And, since I'm not allowed to access non-corporate outside data storage (including e-mail accounts and Google Drives) from my work computer, doing so would require me to maintain two separate worksheets anyway; my work one, and the non-work one. Which strangely my Brain freaks out about more than waiting a little before updating the single version.

So yeah. Lack of technical know-how and restrictions on access during peak updating hours has guided my process on this :) .

Well, that went over better than the time I suggested that FFG needs to stop printing books because my bookshelf was completely full. . . . .

I finally had to bite the bullet and split my Star Wars RPG collection across two shelves. Top shelf is Cores-n-Splats, bottom shelf is Beta books, screens, Beginner Boxes, my dice bag, deckboxes with the NPC cards, and the future home of Genesys

Good... Good... now FFG is another step closer to my warrior book.

Well a nice happy thanksgiving for us Canadians eh?!

It's only scheduled for a couple days after...

And I would be most appreciative if they were to be so kind as to release FO at the same time!!!!!

Thanks FFG.

Well, a new article about the Spy book! My favorite new spec from it! I'm curious to see what the final version will look like, and if you guys like it :) .

Also, on a Trends-related note, they're still predicting Q4 for the release of Cyphers and Masks , so that's good, right?
