How much is the new stuff costing at the show? I'm wondering if it's all sold out by now. Was thinking of saying screw it and heading out there. I need meh zombies! :)

LOL. I am on vacation for another week. Would be a 9 hour drive, but still!

I already preordered the new core and zombies, hopefully they will be available in a few weeks for those of us who support other cons. Hopefully, someday, FFG will go to Origins! The Real Best Four Days in Gaming!

I had a friend pic up Zombies and Tank Busters for me and they are 100% retail priced plus tax.

@Dcal12 - Thanks for posting pics.

The walkers look awesome. The first time i saw the allied walkers, the british crusader tank came to mind. They look like a crusader turrets with legs, and those little turrets on top look like the ones on the crusaders hull.

Cant wait for the heavy kommandotrupp.

Sometimes cons offer discounts on new products to "get the word out". Other times they dont.

I was responding to a previous post. It was the reply to a previous post. OK? Cool with that?

It was a question. I was wondering the same thing. Not everything is dripping with sarcasm you know.

as i said before, just another idiot Grand Inquisitor...

for those of us not glorious enough to go to a Con, oh Grand Inquisitor, it actually was just a simple question. its unfortunate this forum goes unmoderated.

Now this game's officially a game...first flame war. Jeezuss...

It's a game. Shake it off. Shake hands. Swig beer and roll the dice...game on.

Yeah, I can see the Crusader now that you mention it, tho I think Poyet hit it w/ the US T28. The Russian T28 comes to mind too...Still looks like a crab to me.

Humans.......

Lol. What the hell just happened? If nothing else, he has a flair for the dramatic...

Those with Android 2.0 only.

I asked a guy at GenCon with FFG, I want to say his name is Anthony or Tony or Tammy, I don't know, but anyways I asked him when they were going to get the new Dust Tactics stuff out to the public and he stated "we will start shipping as soon as we return". So thats good news for you non-attendees.

I was there until 1AM last night and now I have to be back this morning for the tournament. I will need a vacation to recover from my vacation. Well I need to spend some time tweaking my army, seconding guessing my decisions while I am half awake. After the first couple rounds when I am out of the tournament I will post some pictures of the cards.

Good luck and look forward to more info.

The bar!!!!! stop at the bar before the tournament, now that is the best idea I heard yet.

Woot woot woot! So that's probably on a monday since Gen Con is a four day event. Gotta talk to the local store to grab em when they officially released.

Good luck with the tournament and thanks for the card pics in advance.

Probably Tuesday or Wednesday. FFG tends to take a day or two off after GenCon. But they may already be ready to ship and just need delivered.

Best of luck to you Dazriel! What will you play, Axis or Allied? Or at this point, what did you play??

Bought the game for me and my wife. She plays allies primarily which made me end up with axis (which is cool because I'm go with the zombies). There's a small following of the game here which kinda got hyped up because of the announcement of Dust Warfare. I guess I kinda play both because I'm the one making various army lists for my wife to try to figure out her preferred play style.


Knowing the local stores here, I'd probably get the figs round September because of shipping and order culminations.
