[QUOTE="Mongoose_Matt, post: 856831, member: 239"] Hi guys, I don't think that anyone, gamer or exhibitor, who went to UK Gen Con this year would have argued that it could not have been better. Ther are various reasons for this and they have been rehashed elsewhere. I would have _loved_ to do some demo games. The thing is, we were told that there were no tables available for demo games. . . As for discounts, as I told one gentleman at some length, I would love iut if you bought our books at a retailer instead of us. Really, we are just looking to make our costs and show our face - retailers are the guys to support (they have a hard enough time in this industry as it is). So no, we will never undercut a retailer. We can offer signed books and, possibly, 'job lots' if you buy an entire set or something but discounts, no. I will say this - if you did not enjoy Gen Con so much this year, please, please do not let that put you off Dragonmeet. It is going to be a cracker this year. . . Yes, Gen Con could have been better. But we were playing with the hand we were dealt - believe me, it is no joke to say we were lucky to actually get tables. . . Bagpuss: Armageddon 2089 was about, but we had very limited stocks - inevitably, they disappeared Friday morning. Still, good news from the US - it seems that the books are rattling along and will be available to distributors next week, all things willing. You should be able to get your mitts on it a week after. . . [/QUOTE]
