First: thank you. I hope you enjoy the game. I had fun writing it!

Second: While I really appreciate the thought behind this, we aren't asking anyone to buy games they aren't interested in to support Ogre (or anything else we publish). Right now, the best way to show your support for Ogre is to back the current Kickstarter. Further Ogre development is more tied to how Sixth Edition and Reinforcements and this Kickstarter do than on overall company sales, at this point.

So ...
I missed on the legendary edition.
The 150$ offer is also off the table outside US.
Now, I know shipping rates and I cannot fault SJG on this, neither I nor anyone can ask them to lose money on purpose !
Nor can I justify paying 100$ more to a remailer.
But can I ask what part of the 150$ offer will be available for later purchase in Europe stores, and an idea of the markup ?
And is there somewhere a list of continental EU store that carry SJG games or can order from them reliably ?
(finding a place to order Discworld and Mars Attack have proven difficult, I will wait for the PDF as usual).
Another possibilities, could we hope that a few ogre boxes would find their way to Essen in 17 ?

What will be offered to international distributors:

* Ogre Miniatures Set 1 - $29.95 MSRP, but if stretch goals are met then the retail could climb as high as $39.95.
* Ogre Sixth Edition - $49.95 MSRP.
* Ogre Reinforcements - $19.95 MSRP.

We have no plans to offer the reverse color set of miniatures to distributors.

I hope that helps.

I couldn't STAND seeing that the amount pledged was $39,990! So I did another $30, even though it's not payday yet, so I can receive a second set. And that brings it over $40,000 and the 5th goal! Since I LOVE howitzers anyway, we all get an extra one now!

P.S.: Maybe another command port will be in a future stretch goal. Or more infantry to blast away! Or even another MK III???

Looks like more stretch goals have been revealed...

Nice ones, too. There's the erasable record sheets. A third faction, too - good stuff. :)

Now if only it were a sparkly pink* glow-in-the dark Ogre. ;)

* The sparkly pink business is a standing joke with which I've been teasing Drew (Wolf90) since the original DE Kickstarter.

Thanks for the boost! We'll be updating shortly.

There doesn't need to be a reason for sparkly pink Ogres. =)

Good to see that someone understands. :)

And is that color combo ever hard to read. Oh, well.

My four-year-old daughter would LOVE a sparkly-pink Ogre of her very own!
