No mention of pre-order though...

Currently an ex-Blood Bowl coach, most likely to be found dying to Armoured Skeletons in the frozen ruins of Felstad, or bleeding into the arena sands of Rome or burning rubber for Mars' entertainment.

No worries on pre-order.

The cost to get the license for this product meant we had to have 5000 copies of the game made. (see Tom and Chris's pocketbook go UGH!)

So you should have no risk of not getting a copy. :D They'll be in our store in August.

Also ... when you read the BoardGameGeek comments on the game ... just so you know I read those as well and we worked with the company that originally made Forceball to fix ALL the issues mentioned on BoardGameGeek before we had the game sent to the printer.

Its 95% the same game, but I came up with the Minor League rules which I think make the game really good for playing with younger players. In addition we worked with the original Forceball company to take the 3 pages of FAQ in the rulebook and answer all those rules in the actual rules part of the rulebook (along with answering the questions posed on BoardGameGeek).

So in my opinion ... you take the already fairly high rated card game as it was on BoardGameGeek and make it even better ... that is the product we are releasing.
