A question to my fellow Europeans

[gothwalk]

Masters of the Wild arrived here two months after US release. Deities & Demigods last month... no sign of the Stronghold Builder's Guidebook yet.

Even in Italy MotW arrived two months after the American release.
After MotW the distribution system simply collapsed! The reason can be correlated with the legal dispute between WoC America vs. WoC Europe. Last week the WoC changed the distribution system for my country but i didn't see any new products or magazines.

Update in my situation: I just got Deities & Demigods as well as Call of Chtulhu. Maybe the problems are over now ? (for a while, at least )

So there is still hope

Did you get them via mail order or from your local retailer?

Hello...

I'd like to know what the situation of new WotC releases is where you all live. That is, which the newest WotC products are that have been released in your country.

You see, here in Austria, I haven't even seen Deities & Demigods yet, much less Faiths & Pantheons.
Also, the latest Dragon magazine I got here was #294 (and I didn't get #293), while Dungeon magazine stopped after #90 or so...


Thanks in advance,
Darkness

Exactly same situation here. I had to place a special order to get Dragon 293.

Same here. It is the Hasbro/WotC logisticval merger, as well as the fact that they will no longer keep product in stock. Ever. They will only print that which they will be able to immediatly sell ie. entire printruns!

I usually order my books from amazon.de (I live in Germany). They arrive usually three weeks after the release date of the books in the US. Ordering the books from amazon.com takes longer and is not very reliable.

At least you people from Austria should have no problem with ordering from amazon.de. However, I don't think that you can get Dragon Magazine from them.

I saw Faiths and Pantheons, the Stronghold book and some other stuff in town today.

Bought Star Wars Revised.

That's Liverpool, UK.

Oh just to make the USA people jealous I picked up Judge Dredd RPG as well.

So I'm not that bad. I was upset because products arrived two or three weeks after being released (specially WOTC books), but I see some people are in more need.
Unfortunately, about two months ago, official products have begun to appear later than they used to.
Deities & Demigods: three weeks ago.
Faiths & Pantheons: still waiting.
Stronghold Builder's Guidebook: still waiting.

& ESD distribution?

Why didn't I see this earlier? I just started a thread on a similar thing. But with more semi-warranted speculation and talk of ESDs. I'm having trouble copying & pastig, so I'll just give the link.
