Return to the Path to Carcosa

I wonder when they will spot that we've all had Before The Black Throne for some time now too. That aside, I alway look forward to these 'Return to..' releases. The boxes are great (er...I mean necessary) and always good to get more player cards (some good ones in this release) and variations on the scenarios. Return to The Forgotten Age couldn't come soon enough for me...anyone hazard a guess as to when this might appear on the horizon? Probably a different thread needed for that.
Sometime after Dream-Eaters completes, I would hazard.

The pattern has been (I think)
Core Set - Night of the Zealot
Cycle 1 - The Dunwich Legacy
Cycle 2 - The Path to Carcosa
Return to Cycle 0 - Return to the Night of the Zealot
Cycle 3 - The Forgotten Age
Return to Cycle 1 - Return to the Dunwich Legacy
Cycle 4 - The Circle Undone
Return to Cycle 2 - Return to the Path to Carcosa
Cycle 5 - The Dream-Eaters
Return to Cycle 3 - Return to the Forgotten Age
Cycle 6 - Unknown
Return to Cycle 4 - Return to the Circle Undone
Cycle 7 - Unknown
Return to Cycle 5 - Return to the Dream-Eaters

I agree, The Circle Undone will definitely not have a Return To... expansion. Cause you can't undo something you already undid.
They should just leave Black Throne up there. It will be nostalgic to look at it still up there two cycles from now.

They'll probably remove it when the Return to... comes out and the realize that the circle was never truly undone.
Maybe they have left it in development as an oblique nod to the Blind Idiot God.
Maybe we will get The Circle Redone instead of a return expansion?
You guys did receive your Return to the Path to Carcosa, right? My shop often runs a week or so behind and the Upcoming page is known to be unreliable from time to time.
I have not gotten a copy yet. I expect it to come in any day now though.
I get mine through Team Covenant, and have not yet received it either. I'm okay with that though as we just ran through Carcosa. We're going back through TCU with Marie, Zoey, and Preston.
What might be causing confusion is that the UK got ours last week. I don’t know which other territories got it at the same time, but I know the US release isn’t for another week or so. No idea why, however, but it makes a nice change to get something early for a change!
USA release date is the 6th. I ordered on Amazon Prime which will arrive on the 10th

That all tracks. The Upcoming page updated moving SW: Legion Imperial Shoretroopers Unit Expansion from "Shipping" to "In Stores" but RttPtC (or RatPack) remains in "Shipping."

Didja see the John Oliver piece on Amazon? I didn't know about this beforehand...
google "Warehouses: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver"

Didn't watch. (I don't align with him politically) What was the discussion about?
Mine was sitting in a post office until i managed to pick it up yesterday. Played the first two scenarios this morning, with Leo and Daisy. Enjoying it so far. Only played carcosa once, when it came out, so i cant really comment on how different return to actually is.
Edited by CaffeineAddictPath to Carcosa, both basic and I expect "Return to", was the one campaign that really felt bland playing solo. I encourage everyone to get a group together and play through it. I also think its one of the best entry points for group play in the entire game.

Looks like some bad bussiness and terrible treatment of employees.

Yeah like @tsuruki said, bad business and bad treatment of employees.
I don't really see Oliver as political - he speaks about social, pop culture and political issues but speaks to it as a concerned (comedian) citizen. His background is kind of interesting. Married to an Iraqi War veteran who supported (among others) a Libertarian and a Republican for president, but that's a subject for another thread...

I'm a big fan, but he is VERY political, made so by his subject matter in near every show. He is very much using the European perspective to describe America and the world. Picking apart the things Europeans see as bad in America is very much the premise of his show, and the major perceived negative differences between us Europeans and Americans is hinged on the influences of the Republican party.
Perhaps after Dreamlands we can get a cycle where we have to rescue Trump's dad from Nyarlathotep?
lol! Nice one:)
I guess I see "political" differently. One can talk about issues, bring the spotlight to certain behaviours and make jokes about them without having a "political" agenda....if anything Oliver's agenda is for folks to notice what's going on in their democracy, and doing it in a humourous way. I don't see that as a bad or slanted thing, quite the opposite.
I'm not American, but for me that's the biggest issue with American politics - there are really only two parties. So it's mostly "with us or against us", which can also be interpreted as meaning "you bring something up for discussion, you have a political agenda". I hope for saner days of real open dialogue down there.
That's enough from me on that...I'll check into building my Carolyn deck for Return to the Path
I stoped watching Oliver after his Brexit episode. It had only 1 side to talk about and severely obfuscated facts (rather than lie outright) to make his points. I was versed enough in both sides of the debate to break apart his repeated ad hominem fallacies. He ended it by pleading with the audience not to vote to leave the EU. I label anyone pushing their personal agenda over telling the truth as 'political'. (That's not true. I label them with less kind words.)
I am not going to engage in a political discussion here but that's too bad about Amazon employees. Although, they can find a new job, I can't find a new Amazon Prime.
