A couple days ago, I attempted to purchase Shadows of Asia through Amazon.com. Unfortunately, it's now showing as unavailable. Several online stores list the book for sale, but it isn't anywhere on the FanPro site and, if I had to guess, it hasn't even been released yet.
That said, anyone have even a guesstimate as to when it is hitting the stores? |

Shadows of Asia??? I'd guess 2005 or 2006.
Shadows of Europe should be out in a few weeks (maybe). |

Bingo! It hasn't been released yet.
Some online shops like to display unpublished products to look more up-to-date and attract pre-order. (ask Adam what the mockup covers are made for...) Shadows of Asia is still far in the future, as 3 other books are scheduled before it. (If I remember correctly, in this order : Shadows of Europe, Mr Johnson Little Black Book, Loose Alliances). My opinion is, if the recent rythm of publishing holds true, don't expect the book before August next year, or later... |

3 or 4 books in less than 6 month ? Uh, don't expect it before 2005, at the very least.

A Christmas release! But Sir, the odds of that target number are six-hundred and forty-three point nine to one! ( Don't forget to reroll sixes)

I wanna see Taiwan. I had a cool game with Taiwan playing the assorted Chinese states and Japan off of each other. It was mega-free, with only a single Mitsuhama location. However, when the group gassed the entire complex(overkill- my groups expertise), Japan invaded. Then some of the Chinese states followed and the whole group ran away to Seattle.
