I know you're not going to have the final product ready at GaryCon, but do you think we'll be able to see what the final product will look like---i.e., the box, the dice, the books, maps, etc.?

Hi Allan,
I've been working with Jim Kramer on the final layout of the box cover. I will have my laptop at the show, so I can show you some of the art and the box cover (which I should soon post online, too). Happy to hear you will be at GC IV!
Cheers,
Jeff T.

Fellows,
Here is a proof of the box lid wrapper for the AS&SH game. The design is by James Kramer, with top lid painting by Charles Lang and bottom lid illustration by Ian Baggley.

Very nice-looking stuff Jeff. It was great to meet you at Gary Con!

It's going to be fun pulling this ruleset out and taking it for a spin.

Very nice to meet you and your lovely wife as well, Dan. Next year we are going to have to try to game together.Daniel Proctor wrote:Very nice-looking stuff Jeff. It was great to meet you at Gary Con!
Thanks! I appreciate that you are willing to crack it open and give it a whirl.EOTB wrote:It's going to be fun pulling this ruleset out and taking it for a spin.
Hi Clang! Pleasure meeting you and your son at the con. There is no official release date. Like many small press outfits (and as I'm sure you can imagine), the work is a part-time effort for all involved, so pinning down an exact release date is difficult. I can tell you that the game is done, layout is underway, the boxes are being printed as we speak, I received the dice already, poster printing (the maps) is a work in progress (not happy with the initial proof), and printing the manuals will begin as soon as layout is complete. So, while we have been aiming for April fulfillment, it is likely that shipping will not begin until some time in May. Sorry I can't be more specific. Thanks for your interest!Clangador wrote:When is the game's release date?
