So how many copies were there, I wonder...

Just got an email saying mine is about to be shipped in asking me to double check my address.

same here

Me too!

Really hoping i got my order in for the pre-order version.

1. I was quite late (only a couple of weeks ago)

2. Ordered from a UK website.

Still even the normal version has me hyped. I had 2nd & Skipped 3rd, was considering finally biting the bullet and they announce 4th

Sorry to give you a little bad news, but the pre order bonuses were restricted to bricks and mortar store orders or direct ordering from FFG. Even then the number of items was limited to less than the amount of orders placed, and it seems the BnM stores with online orders aren’t shipping the bonuses to those customers.

Got a shipping notification for my hard cover and prints. Yeah.....

Its here!!!

hardcover rulebook, in my hand!

havent has a chance to read it or compare with the stuff that comes with the game yet, but a real quick flip though doesn’t look like it actually has any new material. Just the rulebook, the lore compendium, and the background text from each of the race sheets.

It could be though that there is new info hidden in those things though.

Edit: does have several pages of designers notes in the beginning. And includes both the learn to play and rules reference books.

What, no component dump?

Does the extra stuff come separately from the game box? Maybe in a bag on the box?

My problem is, I pre odered the game and my FLGS just told me that they only got the normal versions of the game. I can take it now and when the extra stuff arrives they'll contact me and give it to me. What do they mean?

Responded in other post.

I believe the final verdict was that if you ordered directly through FFG, the promo materials came with it. If you ordered through an FLGS, it wasn't exactly guaranteed. It's supposed to come with the promos, but I heard conflicting reports that some game stores only received promo materials for 1/4 of their orders. It seems unlikely to me that your LGS would receive the game without the promo, in any case.

I got mine directly from FFG

It was not in the TI4 box. The Hardcover Rulebook and screens came in a 2nd box. Both the TI4 Box & 2nd box were then put into 1 really big box, and shipped out so I received them all together.
