Status: offline 		I just got my books. They are awesome. For the record I am a PC gamer and always find a PDF manual good enough; however, these books are gorgeous and totally worth it. They will be read and they will be placed prominently on the bookshelf. Great job! I did not expect hardcover...wow!

Got my notification last night, but it was already in Fedex hands by then - so it's on a delivery truck to me at the moment. I actually live in Oregon so it's not that far away.

I'll post when it gets here.

Status: offline 		I'm still waiting after ordering on the first day. This is the slowest game I've ever waited for from Matrix, can't believe it's taken over a week to get to California. I haven't even gotten any kind of notification my order has been mailed, not good shipping and handling from Matrix. I'm glad I can use my rules and scenario books from the board game for now but really want the printed manuals so I can peruse them while my computer is off.

Just received answer to my support ticket and mine was shipped yesterday. Seems like maybe just an issue with notifications coming out. Glad it is on its way.

Status: offline 		My order arrived today, Saturday, to Brentwood, CA. Just a hop, skip and a jump from Troutdale, OR. I was stunned that I got Saturday delivery for no extra charge.

Now I just have to figure out how to play this beast. The books are amazing, I hope the content is equally as amazing.

And this morning I received my official tracking notification....should be here by next Thursday, although won't matter much since it is a Christmas gift so can't use until then:( Still nice to see on its way.

Parcel arrived this morning. Books are presented beautifully - full colour, hard-backed tomes. Maps are totally impractical - but boy do they look good!!

Being in the UK myself, and having not ordered the game yet, I'm curious to know whether you managed to avoid detection by HMCE? I will probably end up buying two copies if I buy any (one for my regular gaming buddy), so I would like to be able to estimate the cost.

Status: offline 		Parcel arrived this morning about 9:30 in Sydney and, unusually, the box was big enough and well padded enough that the books came through without scrunched up corners from being dropped (and boxes with books almost always seem to be dropped ) ... and, even more surprising, Fedex actually delivered it to my door (which they always claim to have tried, even when I am home and the front door is open with the screen door latched) ... must be a new delivery person who hasn't got the memo yet

The shipping cost was $57. Is that what you mean?
