All the press releases have a whole host of figures due for release this month but the release schedule on the site has nothing listed. Can someone of importance please comment on whether we are going to get these figures? and if so when? It is very disheartening to hear that my friends in Europe havent even got wave 2 in some cases and when you cant even find the figures listed on the makers release schedule anymore I think those of us that have tried to get interest going and run leagues should be informed on something officially from admin. I mean you list anime tactics miniature releases out to april on the schedule. Throw the MC people a bone!
Releases
Since the beginning, we have more reliable informations from Tabletop Gaming News than Fantasy Flight Games. I can't explain it.
Count me in on the "I'd like some official news" as well.
Yes ... please FFG, do something for you fans.
What scared me is that some of the links on the table top games site dont sync to the FFG site anymore. The concept art was gone and there is now official news on this website or forum. I just wish someone would say something. If grandma is dead you bury her before she stinks up the place and it is the same with a game. There is so shame in saying it I think those in power should be able to at least give us something because some of us (me included) have been doing demos and trying hard to get people playing in local shops.
They just should finish at least the first set, to make this game playable with all the forces from the starter set!
Which to a gamer makes sense but when you take into account repackaged product and shipping to a company it may be better to terminate the product line and leave us all hanging until we shut up. I hope that is not true and someone will simple say " sorry the game is done and thanks for all your help and we wont be releasing anymore figures for the game due to cost and/or lack of interest. and so we still wait on this thread
Yes, indeed, it will be great loss for all MC fans if FFG just decide to end this great game. I asked FFG managers about many things, but when I asked about MC - they just did not respond to me (till now). It is a bit strange situation. Really, if they want to end it - just make official announcment - it is so simple matter to do. In any case, we shall do nothing, not to make it happen. But, I'm still hold my fingers crossed for this game to exist and to develop. Hope for good news from FFG staff.
Nikodemus will be shipping next week, according to Tabletop Gaming News !

In fact, i think that the whole miniatures range is already in production or have already been produced. Would make a lot of sense, to produce the wohle game and then release some parts of it every month.
A new release list from one of my distributors. I dont think, that it is correct, but at least some infos with some new "fluff text":
Februar
Divine Retribution - Archinquisitor Nikodemus Warpack brings the Archinquisitor Nikodemus unique figure to your Mutant Chronicles battlefield. This beautifully sculpted and painted Brotherhood figure will lead your fanatical forces to victory.
March
Etoilles Mortant
Infernal Corrodor
Mitch Hunter
Mercurian Spawn - This Ilian fighter isn't only enormous in stature, but its capabilities on the battlefield are monstrous as well. This Mercurian Spawn knows how to decimate its enemies from a far distance disastrously well. If that's not enough, this creature is capable of regenerating life, creating a second wind for any Ilian commander. A savage fighter, this creature will bring a slew of destruction for the demon forces.
Battlesuit Prototype
Dragoon / Dragoon Kapitan
Mutant Chronicles Map Pack 1
Freedom Brigadier Sergeant
Max Steiner
Security Specialist
Undead/Cursed Legionaires - Bearers of the Ilian star, these undead soldiers terrorize the battlefield not only with their gruesome appearance, but also with their awful abilities. At times rising from the cold earth, these soldiers will have your enemies in constant fright. Also, ripping through their enemies with the Kratach Assault Rifle, this undead duo will drive fear and devastation into any soldier who would stand against them. The Undead / Cursed Legionnaries are available together in the brand new warpack!
Free Marine Hero - A resilient Capitol soldier, the Free Marine Hero is well equipped for a full-out assault with his M-50 Assault Rifle and the ability to unleash a furious attack! One of these attacks alone could crush an enemy soldier. His skills on the battlefield also complement his skills being a tactician as the Free Marine Hero can execute most Capitol maneuvers with confidence and simplicity. This soldier is a necessity if any Capitol commander wishes to see the rewards of victory!
April
Biogiant / Advanced Biogiant
Sweet. Those releases HAVE to come out. They might not be out on time, but that's no problem. I just got a bit unsure because there were none out in January, but if Nikodemus comes out soon, we'll at least have something for February. The question is if anything will be out AFTER these initial releases. That fate will only be up to the fans/sales of the game.
If I may use a metaphor, IMO this game is currently like a great, but extremely under-rated actor (I guess that goes for the whole MC line).
Gotta love MC CMG.

A lot of companies are having trouble getting things out lickity split. Keep buying and playing and I think we are cool for the first full set. Thanks for the info!
Has anyone else bought Nikademus yet? I just ordered it today; we will see when he arrives
I have just sent a message to Fantasy Flight Games about their lack of attention to the members of this forum and the lack of information being given to it's players. I have also sent out messages to my two friends who work for FFG, one of them being a major hand in the creation of the MC CMG. Hopefully, they will look at the forums and start to answer some of our questions.
If I do hear from them personally, I will let you all know what exactly is going on, because this is seriously not cool. No news about upcoming releases, no news about the Mars Map Pack and if the free downloadable map is taking it's place, no nothing!
Thanks dude. It really is as if they dont care. If it wasnt for the few leaks on table top gaming news we wouldnt have anything.

Any answers yet?
By the way the MC release this week was a huge question mark at distributors. Sorry guys. Did anyone else get the new brotherhood figure from an online store? I am really doubting they even finish the set.
Liss
I have NOT heard from FFG themselves, and only one friend of mine did manage to contact me and told me he couldn't say much; all I was able to be told was "not to look forward to the future of MC CMG".
Nooo!!
no surprise there but the question is are they going to continue what they started? The archinquisitor wasnt released despite being listed yet again on the release schedule and then not showing up on distributor releases. In fact most distributors dont even have MC listed as an option for new stuff. Some of us have worked hard on getting this game out game. I got one of the first demo kits and I even paid for a league out of my own pocket... and I all I want is someone from FFG to COMMENT!!! we know its dead. but are you going to finish the run and release the figures advertised from the first set and maybe the mercurian spawn and dead legion troopers or ARE you done? stop being politicians and comment?
Why do I have these feelings of Games Workshop NDA...I've heard rumors that GW is putting out a new version of Space Hulk this summer. I have to wonder now if they are doing it through a third party that already handles some of their black library RP games like Dark Heresy..
