Hydran Attack

I've been off the Forum grid for the last few months. Does anyone know a ETA on Hydran Attack?

Soon?

But seriously, I don't think they have a set time yet. Probably about two months away.

One of the guys in my group is a Hydran nut. I'm watching eagerly for this as well.

No. Hydran Attack was thrown off schedule when the die cutter ADB used to use quit. (I.e. refused any more orders.) ADB has selected another die cutter, but not everything has yet been finalized. Until that happens, no real schedule will be available.

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, I'm new as of today and still reading posts.

But is this why F&E is not available anymore either or is that a separate issue?

Yes. ADB ran out of counter sheets 1 and 2 for F&E, so it's temporarily out of stock. They are workign with a new die cutter to get new counter sheets and as soon as they do so, it'll be back in production.

Yes, we ran out of F&E counters. More will be made, soon.

I am waiting on the final quotes from the die cutter. He sent two versions of the same quote that were very different in cost, which probably means he either made or found a mistake. We've asked him what the difference is so we can see which one is the right one.

Once we have die cutting quotes, we will select between plan A and plan B.

One plan prints Hydran Attack in September, the other in November.

We may have the new F&E sheets in September or November.

Isn't War and Peace the next product.

No, It's the next, next product. Not including possibly Briefing 3 and BoM 1.

Is there an "estimated" release schedule somewhere? I'm closely watching for my ISC boys to finally arrive on the scene.

It will be here in 2009 sometime. There are at least two ISC ships in FC now too. Booster 0 hads the Star Cruiser.

Understood. I was kind of hoping to make an eschelon with more than the cruiser and the destroyer. I'm happy to see it's on the schedule for this year though.

The ISC, along with the Andromedans and Vudar, may be along by Origins 2010.

Well, things may change between now and then.

I'm still hoping that the ISC might finally show up in Federation and Empire this year, though.
