Creatures Anathema, any new news?

By Peacekeeper_b, in Dark Heresy

With a reported release date of Jan/Feb 2009 and Jan 2009 almost upon us I figured I would start a "OMG I cant get a copy of Creatures Anathema" thread in much the same way we had out "DotDG" thread.

So has anyone heard or have any real confimations on this books arrival date?

Well, according to Amazon, it's due:

December 29, 2008 (amazon.com) / status: available for pre-order

December 31, 2008 (amazon.co.uk) / status: available for pre-order

November 2008 (amazon.fr) / status: currently unavailable

So, in order to avoid any warpish setback, I guess I'll wait till Noble Knight Games puts it on catalogue.

I call this meeting of the DHBIAGYA (Dark Heresy Books I Aint Got Yet Annonymous) to order.

I would like to formally apply to join the DHBIAGYA; after being very impressed with the DotDG I need another DH fix NOW!

Yes, I admit, the addiction has got that bad .....

DW

The addiction isnt that bad, its just that good.

Even though i haven`t recieved DotDG, I`m signing up. Can`t be any worse now, can it? (knocking frantically on wood...)

I'm not sure If I qualify for membership, as I have DotDG, but I do hunger for CA like Tyranids hunger for the vast resources of the Imperium's myriad life-bearing worlds... does that count?

DHBIAGYA rewrote its charter after it changed from DOTDGA. It now covers anyone jonesing for any Dark Heresy/40KRPG book that they dont have yet.

This includes people who still havent bought the Inquisitor's Handbook or main rule book or even PTU, GMS Kit or Character Folio.

Membership requirements are wanting a copy of one of these but for some reason cant get it, be it financial, not released yet, cant find it and so forth.

But if you dont want it, then it doesnt count. Like I am a member of DHBIAGYA for the Creatures Anathema and later Rogue Trader (and whatever comes out between those two books most likely) but I am not part of the club for the Dark Heresy Character Folio, which I dont have and really dont want.

So welcome aboard.

Well I have CA on pre-order with Amazon, just like I did with DOTDG. I contributed to the previous post on DOTDG and Amazon's delay in getting it to me. However, with the price saving I was not bothered and will be adopting a similar stance with CA. Basically be patient and they will get it to me eventually. :)

They currently have a delivery estimate of 8-12th January but I will take that with a rather large pinch of salt.

Why not creating a Facebook Cause group then ? lengua.gif

thats a good idea. I may do that later today.

Well according to my FLGS, they expect to have it in mid-late January, but that said, delivery of Dark Herresy products have been known to be late :P .

I shall apply to your Society for the Appreciation of Hereunto Unreleased or Unacquired Librams Concerning the Dark Future. SAHUULCDF (now that's an acronym, wonder if there is a demon name in there :P ).

There we go, another name for those that feel the need, nay be it the urge to read more.

Well December 29th has come and gone, thanks Amazon for lying, again.

Well, I hope it is mailed and arrives before my next big real world army adventure begins. LOL.

Amazon handily emailed me today to tell me it was delayed, but didn't really give me a definate availability day.

Amazon never wrote me, that two timing *****!

I've been pestering my FLGS about the book as well. They've told me that they have been billed for the book before Christmas which would mean that it normally would arrive about a week after that. But remember, FFG did publish that they are not shipping anything out until January 7 at the earliest because of the holiday and inventory. Add onto that the usual incompetence of UPS (used to work for them I know), and I'd honestly expect the book late this month.

Of course I am twitching with anticipation. Please sign me up for whatever support groups you guys have been putting together

Hello my name is Arkie and I'm an addict... Oh! Wait wrong forum... Or is it?

No Uncle Arkie it is the right forum.

We are all addicted and it is never enough.

Some of us (like myself) wait so long and hard to get a book and then we ***** about them LOL.

Hi, my name is Igman3977. This is my first time to a DHBIAGYA meeting, and I find myself in dire need of another book before I even get the newest. CA hasn't even been released yet and I NEED the to have it and whatever is coming next. I fear I won't be able to wait that long. I just know after I get CA, I'll be needing the next two books, if not three. I need help.....

Be strong my friends...be strong -- you cant do it .(gulp) We all can. As far as new books go - I saw something on a "to be released" page from my FLGS's distributor titled Haarlock's Legacy Part 1 or somesuch. Any ideas what it could be? The listed price was only 24.95 so I'm thinking it's the first part of a campaign arc similar to WFRP's Paths of the Damned. Of course with "Haarlock" it could be a Rogue Trader tie-in, like an intro-adventure or boostrap kit to "level up" DH characters to the RT (is that the right acronym now?) power scale. Anyone else hear anything?

**** me. I'm still jonesing for CA, and here I am wistfully speculating about the next book

Has it gone to print yet? With FFGs handy little status page gone, what do we know as fact?

Hai group.

Yesterday was bad, I spent 3 hours infront of my computer looking at the cover of the book and the Rogue Trader poster, there was apparently shaking and foaming around the mouth towards the end as I mumbled dark words under my breath. Towards the end my girfriend was considering calling the paramedics and have an exorcist come to the house, but a quick intervention with a copy of the Eisenhor Omnibus saved me from doom. Sorry, but I was going for the one week pin, but I'm going to have to start over, stay strong and go to all the meetings. I'm so sorry guys.

Rogue Trader...

What was the date on that again?? :)

GenCon, that should put it around August.

I would make a much better DH addict if I had to time to finish reading the books I already have, but I'll be damned if I'm not looking forward to this like a giggling schoolgirl.
