We haven't announced a specific release date yet. What I've said is that we are _aiming_ for late June and the anniversary. A lot depends on the printing time for the manual which we're doing in full color (about 330 pages) with a new printer, so we'll see. I can say it won't be any earlier than late June and the longest it should realistically be possible for it to slip is 2-3 weeks.

Regards,

We'd like to do a printed map as a separate thing, I'm looking into that.

Please look into a laminated map, I never purchase the WITP one because of this, or how we could get it laminated.


I purchased one, had it laminated at Kinko's, and have it sitting behind me now, where I plot every bit of signint and usefull sighting reports that I get. It's very usefull to get "inside my opponents head". [:)]

I've been getting my maps laminated for years - every town I've lived has had one or more services that will do that - for a fee. Start googling and you should find one. Kinkos will do it - but they might be the most expensive. The lower cost ones were people who operated a service from out of their homes.
