The one about Essen pickups and GenCon!

Update #20 · Jul 22, 2012 · 2 comments

Hey everyone!! Just wanted to get a reminder out that if you are planning on going to Essen/Spiel 2012 you can pick up Fleet and get a sweet deal from the Eagle/Gryphon guys.
"Pick up Fleet at the Eagle/Gryphon booth (#10-55), GET A SHIPPING REFUND, AND receive a 10 Euro booth credit towards other awesome Eagle/Gryphon games OR more Fleet!! Woot! Geekmail me or drop us an email at ridbackgames@gmail.com and I will put you on the list."
I just stole that from the last update since it still applies. Its not lazy, its efficient. Plus, I added the booth number so it’s even more better now. You're welcome. Again, you must do this BY JULY 25!!!
If any of our awesome Euro backers know anyone that might want a copy of Fleet at Essen/Spiel 2012 (for 20 euros) we are taking pre-orders until July 25! Feel free to link anyone that might be interested to this thread http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/827919/spielessen-2012-preorder-available or have them send us an email at ridbackgames@gmail.com. Note that we will have rules in many languages at Essen.  As a matter of fact, if there are any American/German/French/Hungarian/Essen-Spiel etc game websites or forums feel free to do us a favor and link that thread, just make sure are not being a troll!
You can also pick up your fisheeples at Essen if you ordered them, but you MUST let me know if you are going to do this by July 25!


In other news, Ben and I WILL be at Gencon with a couple of hot off the presses pre-release copies of Fleet to play with anyone that is interested. There will be an official Gen Con event to play Fleet with Ben and I, but we are still waiting for the exact details and will get them out once we have them. Either way, come find us, we will be around Friday and Saturday for the most part. Again, shoot either of us a geekemail at bgg or an email at ridbackgames@gmail.com and we can figure something out!
Still no takers on the Essen sponsorship :( Well, there was one, but it involved fruit, thousand island dressing, and mountain climbing gear. Dunno. Sorry "Chris K", whoever you are, Ben and I are both happily married men.
