As per topic line....
When Will Pre-Orders be up and whats the release date?
They likely won't give a solid release date until the game is into printing (when they'll actually be able to predict when it'll be done), and no idea about pre-orders. FFG have only just announced that the game exists, I'm sure they'll tell people when the game will be available for pre-ordering and when it'll be released in the future.
TLDR; Soon
front page of this website has a 8/2010 date.
Which likely means August 6 or 7 for those of us lucky enough to get to Gencon Indy
