You make the drive and I guarantee the Guinness and the steak will be waiting.

I'm starting to see some reviews of this by people that are at GenCon. Nothing very specific yet, but it's slowly coming out. 'Solid" would be the best way to describe the reviews I've read.

I've been reading more detailed reviews. This sounds awesome. I can't wait for mine to show up. Can't wait to start running this.

Sounds like I'm not going to be able to check mine out until Saturday, which still isn't too far off.

I just got mine this afternoon from our DM (recently returned from GenCon). I'm going to dig into them in earnest tonight

I looke forward to your thoughts. Just make sure you post a warning for any spoilers. I'd hate for any of my players to get any info.

At this point, I'm likely to do two reviews: one from a GH POV, which will be much-more focused on the history of CG, etc., and then on reviewing CZ in a non-GH context. Either way I'll definitely flag spoilers accordingly.

I did a cursory on the copy my buddy brought back from Gen Con--looks very cool! And, yes, massive! Some great "historical" tidbits I saw... ^__^

With the 1st batch being sent out last week, It could be waiting for me any day now. I can't wait to dig in.

This is certainly a momentous release from Gary. And I sure will be looking for all of your thoughts/reviews/opinions for sure.
;D

I'm sure there will be no shortage of any of those things around here, once we get a chance to read it.

Is it available? I went to the site and it said pre-order only. I refuse to pre-order anything so I might have to wait.

I think the site just needs to be updated, since it was officially released at GenCon, and the pre-orders have shipped.

Oh-okay. I'll see if I can order a copy later.

I'd really love to get some idea/figures on how many sets were ordered. Both on the opening pre-order day and overall. The Trolls don't ever publish or acknowledge product info, but Peter occasionally will drop some general info.
Anywho, I know I was at the back end of the pre-order schedule, so I honestly have no idea how long it will take.
I mentioned to someone at the TLG forum, that's it's really hard to say. It so depends on how many boxes were ordered and where you live. And of course, there's always the X factor . . . USPS!! LOL.
;D
