Hey folks,
Found our first bit of errata for Pearl Edition (a typo) - Arrows from the
Woods does NOT cost 7 gold, it is still free. I don't know how all of us
here and at AEG missed that one, but it does happen I guess. We'll make sure
to put Arrows in one of the upcoming starter decks with the correct cost.

> I just want to know who decided where the pre-releases were going to be
held
* and why we here in Australia didn't get one?

To do a prerelease, you have to have the product available a couple of weeks
early. To date, FRPG has been pushing people just to have the product
available ON the release date - as that was how we built our schedules. When
we joined up with the DCI, we tried to push our schedules early enough for
pre-releases. We managed to get an extra week in, but not enough to be able
to host world wide pre-releases (due to the longer shipping). Over time, we
hope to get another week ahead of the game, but I refuse to do that if it
means sacrificing quality of art, playtesting, or story.

By pushing the schedules here, we have been able to deliver products
overseas for release on the SAME date that the product is released in the
states for the first time, we're just not far enough ahead to add overseas
pre-releases.
