[QUOTE="Abstruse, post: 9334852, member: 6669048"] I tend to cut Edge some slack because they were a tiny RPG company that got bought by Asmodee and, at some point after Embracer Group bought Asmodee, they decided to shake up Fantasy Flight by pulling all the RPG production out and leave them solely doing board/card/miniature games. And gave a couple of very popular RPGs to Edge with Star Wars and Legend of the Five Rings. It was a LOT more than the company was used to and they would have to ramp up quickly to figure out how to meet demands on lines that popular, especially since even FFG was having issues keeping Star Wars titles in print. So their first priority was to get the very popular license that was blowing up at the time thanks to Mandalorian back in stores... And then the pandemic happened. And then the shipping crisis. And then the printing industry kinda exploded. Did I mention that Edge is a French company now working with English language titles andd also trying to figure out shipping and distribution to North America when most of the printing is done in Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe while all of the above is happening? Yeah, they've had a rocky run of things since they took over with even L5R, which always had a pretty steady release schedule, drying up pretty much as soon as the stuff FFG was developing got released...but I can understand why they're in that situation. And it looks like they're starting to get a handle on things with a new release just out recently (the Twilight Imperium RPG) and most of the Star Wars stuff has been reprinted... [/QUOTE]
