Acquiring DA models

[dragonlady]

Ok, my question is, since these box sets have been announced, when will the LGS shops and Internet stores actually have them available?

I did pick up a few of the forsaken blisters that were available at LGS during their 30% after christmas sale while in Vegas, and of course I am waiting for the latest delivery from and Internet store, but I was wondering about fleshing out my "army".

I notice that some of the internet stores such at frpgames http://frpgames.irook.com/cart.php?m=product_list&mfg=DAG seem to have a better selection than the Warstore http://www6.mailordercentral.com/thewarstore/departments.asp?dept=1046
, while most LGS seem to be absolutely like a barren wilderness for availability.

What is the best way to get the Dragyi for instance. If I'm going to play this game, I will obviously need two factions in order to demonstrate it to friends down here in Socal to get their interest going!

Its great that Darkage has an online store, but I haven't seen any announcements of any "sales" or specials, and assume they won't in order not to piss off their distributors and stores.

The board section for retailer locators seems to be a little light also on actual retailers.

Am I expecting to much for the early life cycle of the game (I hate it when I get to the party too early!)

The war store is currently revamping their store and get's the updates up slowly, but I'm sure they'll get there eventually. I actually wait till the releases get put up as my friends an I make large group-orders for Dark Age, Confrontation and GW products.

At least I was finaly able to get the DA book from him recently.....

Yeah, Neal is revamping his online sore, has been doing so for a while, so not sure when he is going to do some updates on his site.

Yep, it is not an unwillingness on our part to discount our products on the online store, just don't want to step on anyone toes. Not worth losing retailers' trust for a few quick sales.

Dark Age Games doesn`t really promote their new releases. We never get information about new releases, so if a store owner is not into DA gaming (and not visiting the DA homepage regulary) he doesn`t know anything about new releases (and can`t stock them).

your shop is an exception..see your board ;)

As a retailer I want to get release information in advance, so I can actually have the items in stock when the Company starts selling it.

We will make a better effort in getting the information out to the public in the future. Thanks for letting us know.

In the States, you used to get info on the DA releases out off Previews BUT I just looked at the January Previews and no DA no metal minis at all. Reaper and the Evil Empire were not listed but plastic colectable stuff like D&D (Hasbro) and Heroclix were listed. As the Hurricane used to say "What's up with that?!"
