Right now, my copy is 42 miles away in Stoke-on-Trent. That means it could be with me tomorrow, right?

 

Right?

Sure, why not. However, I heard it will only come if you are wearing a hat.

Mine left Stoke at 18.24 and is still expected to take 2 days to make it to me in Liverpool :( But at least they're arriving.

I have no tracking for it, so hope mine is on the way too. Can’t wait for it to finally get here.

I dunno where mine is either (keep meaning to ask for the tracking number) but I expect it'll be here within the next couple of days so that's cool, as long as it gets here eventually :). Won't be able to play it till a weekend anyway.

That is really cool, hope it gets there soon.

 

P.S. - France still sucks.

I have no tracking number for mine - but if yours is in the UK, mine could be arriving in Ireland soon, so thanks for that info.  :)  Hope yours arrives soon and that you enjoy it! :D

Mine's on a FedEx truck about an hour away in Coventry, "to be delivered", so I'm hoping to get it today. Can't wait!

I'm in Copenhagen. According to FedEx my copy is currently 'on FedEx vehicle for delivery'!! And the estimated delivery wasn't until tomorrow evening, so in it's own way it came earlier than expected :wink:

Mine just arrived too!  Thrills and joy!  :D

Turns out that I did have a tracking number for it...  I just thought it was for something else.  I'm much more pleased with it being for this!  xD

Turns out Wrath is so awesome that it took two people to carry it to my door.

Arrived !

One hour to read all the background stuff on cards and take notes... Now, let's play !

Scry Scraper talking ways are pleasant to the ear.

I had to leave for work before I could examine every card in loving detail, but I was able to look at some of the decks.  Guise's shark-jumping art is hilarious.  So happy to finally have this expansion and looking forward to playing it.  :)

Yeah, I thought Sky-Scraper's "voice" was very strong when I read the proofs. I like her a lot!

Arrived. Also got a copy of Sentinel Tactics that I wasn't expecting. Were there supposed to be art prints? I didn't receive any, but can't remember if we were supposed to.

I do wish my copy of Tactics from the Kickstarter had been shipped with my copy of Wrath too, but I'll happily accept what did arrive.

I just spent about an hour sorting out all my lovely new decks that just arrived :D. I had to move my environment decks from the Vengeance box into the main box (which previously only held heroes) to make space whilst still keeping all the same deck types together, but now it's all good :D.

They were probably hoping you'd invite them to play.

I did the same. I've had to move my Cauldron decks into their own box instead of letting them cohabit with the official ones, but never mind.

Some of the black borders on the cards have a little white speckling, I'm not sure it's serious enough to get replacements.

As long as they brought their own snacks and were wearing pants I'd be totally good with that.

Thanks for sorting everything out Paul! Looks like I have to wait just one more day to get mine, so obviously I will just have to play twice as many games tomorrow then.

My two cents.  Do not taste the box, cards, or blister packs.   They are rather sour.   The art prints and bubble wrap are quite delicious. :grin:

An attempted delivery here (first day of job), but at least they found the front door, which was a huge stepup from several other delivery companies. If all is well, the next attempt to deliver will be at work tomorrow :-D. Looking forward to it!!

Mine also arrived today. They are now all sleeved and in my Eclipse: Rise of the Ancients box, since I can no longer fit everything into two boxes.

Without looking, I'm guessing you didn't add on the extra shipping to have your Sentinel Tactics stuff shipped as it became available. Which means it will all come at once, when the maps are finished.

You're absolutely right: I did not add extra shipping so that the Tactics stuff would be sent as available.  I mean, if I had, you would've sent Tactics a long time ago, and not waited until now.  I just thought that, since you had to make two shipments anyway, one for Wrath and one for all my Tactics stuff, you might have felt like getting my copy of Tactics out of your warehouse as part of this first shipment and only having to ship the maps later in the second shipment.  I also thought that maybe you'd put my SS Tachyon promo in the same box as my Wrath stuff to save yourselves an envelope.  But obviously you know what the best configuration is for maximum shipping efficiency!  For all I know, it takes more effort to make these particular arrangements than it's worth, and it's far easier to simply put identical packages together in bulk  :)  Please don't get the impression that I'm not happy with what I've got.  I just have no experience in running a warehouse.

@Estelindis

Both things that you mentioned are absolutely true! Combining things like that is time consuming and logistically difficult, increasing the amount of time the ship-out takes as well as the chance of errors, so unfortunately we had to wait.

Returned from my holiday yesterday afternoon and my Cosmos was sat in work waiting for me this morning!  I shall unseal and have a read through of everything tonight.  Then re-arrange my boxes! Wheeee!!

Oh, I might also play a game.  Almost forgot I could do that!

The wait is finally over, huzzah!!  Well done for co-oping a neighbour for shipping labels, its appriciated despite my previous grumblings. ;)

So... When is Villians shipping? ;)
