Release Date

By lleimmoen, in The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game

What I've read on the forum of the italian distributor:

the whole Mirwkood cycle pack (at least in the italian version), has already been printed and is due in a single shipping.

There is no way to know if it holds for other languages and / or the english version, but common sense would suggest so.

So we can hope that once we've waited so long for the first, the others shall arive in more frequent intervals.

Aw man, I just noticed the delay on the Hunt for Gollum pack. This was listed as June 30th from what I saw, which is the day after my Birthday. I was hoping to pick myself up a nice birthday present...

I'm bummed that Fantasy Flight isn't at Origins. I was hoping to pick up a pack this weekend and try out some organized play. Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it to Gen Con.

FFG raise your threat by 5 due to dropping the ball on a smooth LotR:LCG adventure pack release. This game is so good I'm willing to wait but remember you loose if your threat exceeds 49 ;)

Are they going to release foreign language packs the same day as the english ones? I bought my core set in french as english was sold out. and I want all my cards in the same language. But, I will not wait for the french pack if the english one is release.

On Amazon it says release date is July 20th...love the game, but this stinks!

Have just received an e-mail from Maelstrom that they have sent out my Hunt for Gollum pack. There's a surprise!

That's awesome, I'm very glad to read your post after today's nth preview of Hunt for Gollum still not announcing a release date!

Looks like I'll be spamming refresh on my email today to check for any notification from my arranged seller, so that I can finally get mine ordered and shipped off asap!

Great mate! I already tried to call them but i guess its too early yet ;)

Will try later for sure and order asap if its available there.

Did anybody receive the addon already from http://www.oggames.co.uk ? I planned on buying there, but i I will call them lateron as well and report back to you guys. :)

Ok, back with some news, well I just went off the phone with Maelstrom and they said they got a bunch of games yesterday which they shipped directly to people who had already ordered and they are waiting now for a reprint for a least few days. :(

Yeah, I put all the packs on pre-order as soon as they were listed on the site. Seems to work out well for this one.

According to polish publisher Galakta, the worldwide release date will be in second half of July. This is official.

I wish they'd hurry up; I've got a $200 order sitting, ready to ship, being held up by Hunt for Gollum and Merchants and Marauders. Chop-chop!
