In previous articles we had a estimate release date of Q2, for all expansions. With the latest news that release date seems to change to Q3. That means Sep/Oct being pessimistic.
I hope we get at least the command unit exp. before , otherwise its a long time playing with only the core set.
What do you guys think?
Cavalry and the infantry expansion are on the boat, so that's what, 2 months out?
I'm guessing FFG uses the calendar year rather than the fiscal year, because April 1st starts Q3 of the fiscal year.
Also the stuff on the boat got a new date of 5/1, cant remember what the other date was, I think it was late march. Maybe it got to Minnesota and it didnt pass QA so they refused to release it and the factory has to go back and improve the quality.
So now we're looking at July before we get new toys. hmmm.... I might be ok with this.
Well the four expansions (Waiqar archers, Waiquar infantry command, Daqan cavalry and Daqan infantry command) that are said to be on the boat for a while are still set for Q2... Maybe I'm wrong, but the other expansions were never said to release on Q2.
Pretty sure elves were always Q3, and Q3 is July - September.
That's good for me, financially. Gives me time, I am thinking of a second core, and command units in the mean time.
Lord Hawthorne was announced here as showing up in Q2 2017...

Now, in the new article, he's listed as Q3 2017.

The Rune Golems and Spearmen are also tagged as Q3 now and they were Q2 before.
My guess is that we'll see the first four announced expansion in late May/early June with the next six (including the three above and their skellington equivalents) in July/Aug.

Also gives me more time to paint up my current batch of Daqan.

April 1st is our start of the fiscal year. Different businesses use different fiscal years.
FFG does use the calendar year. This has been confirmed in the past.
sometimes they seem to use the mayan calendar instead ?

I know this is being passed around Facebook. Probably from reliable sources.
However, if they don't move to "Shipping Now" by Monday, then they won't be following the typical FFG release pattern. Since the Asmodee street dates, the precedent has been that items move to Shipping now 1.5-2 weeks before availability.
Releases shifting back a quarter between previews is pretty standard for FFG lately. Better than before, when they would stick to their guns all the way through the projected quarter and still no release.

Not just reliable sources, but the guy who runs the retail side of the FFG event center. If he says it's coming out that day, that's basically official.
They are also looking into maybe having a little casual tournament that day if any of you are in the Minneapolis area.

Blasphemy. April is the correct starting point and I believe if you search your feelings you will know it to be true.

Better watch out, if you understand sarcasm and don't get outraged they might kick you off the internet!
