Re: Report To The Stakeholders
It is ever in our minds, believe me!
I will be at UKGE this year, and who knows what I will learn? |

Re: Report To The Stakeholders
Back in the day, miniatures companies and even rpg companies licensed their products to companies in other countries rather than paying shipping costs and tarrifs. If I understand rightly, and my information is often dated, there's a tarriff on games that doesn't or didn't apply to books that lead to the move away from boxed sets.
Maybe the way shipping and manufacturing work now, it's time to revisit that approach.

Their reprints don't seem to have competed very successfully with imports (they re-arranged RuneQuest II, which did not help), and with the vastly larger range of games on the market now, I can't see it working again. What the UK seems to need is an efficient importer and distributor. Esdevium Games acquired a near-monopoly (apart from WotC products) and then stopped trying.
