12/10 Release Plans

Things are going great with the new printers so we have stepped up production. We are currently alternating between remaking existing games and working up new ones.

Because our high output wax printer is no longer functioning we have removed all of our Out Of Stock items from the site. We are going to a Print To Order for all piecepacks, so they will have a slightly longer shipping time.

8/10 New Printer

We are currently using a new printing house and are in the working of switching as many games as we can to the new printers. The bad news is that this new method is a bit more expensive and the USPS has increased shipping costs again. The good news is that as convert each game over to the new printer we are also updating the games with new artwork and tweaked rules.
