Thanks for the answers on horses/chariots. I'm assuming light warhorses apply here, from your answer. It would only make sense, as the african horses are generally smaller. It plays well in Peoria assuming that.
As to the availability of the product locally, I think the focus of the product, its size, and price makes some smaller stores, as most FLGS are, skittish about stocking it. They may be afraid of getting stuck with something no one may buy for any of those reasons. I think we all who lurk in the stores see a few products that are interesting but a little pricey for us. We may wait until they go on sale to buy.
I think those that know the authors, know the quality of Green Ronin products, and check the reviews here and elsewhere will support this great product. Even if you cannot talk anyone to play it, it is a great read for the price and full of crunchy goodness.
I would suggest an action packed one shot to introduce the races and classes, and see which skeptics you can draw in. A good campaign has many interesting NPCs, and this product has the juice to make them.
If I would suggest any expansion material right up front, I would recommend an expansion of the equipment section. If anything was found a little wanting here, it was that section.
Best wishes and consider this post a recommendation to bite the bullet and buy this product.
