At this point, I think I have enough ideas to fill an issue of Ogrezine myself. :D

OK folks, here's an update perhaps some of you might be interested in.

As we've been emptying boxes of S&TO countersheets to fulfil recent orders (and thanks to all who've joined in with the latest 'Surge'!), we've found a few of the packaged sheets have suffered CCS - the dreaded Crinkled Corner Syndrome.

Unfortunate but not unexpected - you always lose some stock in damages. Its generally where a countersheet has slipped during loading of the carton just enough so that a corner then gets bent out of shape as others get stacked on top. But it means that with our own QC (Quality Control) we can't and won't ship that countersheet out to a customer.

So, what to do. It's not like the whole sheet is written off, and in some cases it's the same corner (would you believe, the 'Pentagonal' single hex counter!)

Well, we plan to punch out all the counters of the affected sheets, and then we're going to offer up ziplock bags of multiple copies of certain counters.
  • Want some more Railyards and Railway Stations?
  • Need a load of geodesic domes because your troops live in a rain-forest zone?
  • Want some more Port facilities and Sea Bases?
  • Need more POL stores and Power Stations?
  • Want a bag with 6 'Archangel' GEV-MCPs along with 6 'Rabbit' Hovertrucks?
  • Just want some extra Rad/Bio Hazard markers?

Hopefully you get the kind of ideas we've come up with. And we'll be pretty flexible about the proposed pricing, and it may be (not sure yet) that because we can post these out in a jiffy bag instead of a card-backed large envelope, postage might be cheaper too. We will check up on that later.

Anyway, let me know what you think, and ask away any questions too.

Obviously, you don't have clearance for that. :-)

I have a free scenario book for anyone who wants here:

Multiple scenarios each using different parts of the STOC sheet.

Many thanks for the interest shown so far for specific counters.

Still collating the responses on a spreadsheet to make it easier to pick-&-pack, so if anyone else needs geodesic domes, missile silos, POLs, Power Stations, etc, etc., just drop me a message or a reply here.

Update on the offer for specific counters: messages sent out to those who provided a wants list of certain S&TO counters, and hoping to have these in the Royal Mail and on their way this week.

Many thanks to those folks who showed an interest, and more counters are still available. Some interesting choices made too.

Quick update: we still have lots of spare counters, punched out from countersheets that had slight damage in the storage cartons.

If you're after something extra for scenario design, or just to hand out to players as a memento even, we can probably supply you with a few ideas. And, because these are punched counters, they are easier to pack & post.

Happy to discuss, so do get in touch.

Been way too long since I last posted up anything on this thread. My apologies for that.

Great to have a sudden flurry of sales and enquiries - someone out there must have done something to prompt the new interest? But it is much appreciated, especially as I've been sitting in amidst the lockdown looking after other interests. A nice distraction back to Ogre.

The sad news is that postage/shipping rates look set to go up soon, and I don't think this time I can absorb this one. In truth they have gone up - at the UK end - for sending these latest orders to USA and elsewhere around the globe. I'll look at where we stand and make a decision soon on that, with a new pricing list. You're welcome to get in touch to ask and discuss of course - please see the details below in the signature line.

Meantime, I do hope you are all keeping safe and well in these strange times.
