Too true. What's up? But for the announcement two months ago, infos for this game have been non-exhistent. That's weird..

Your exhistence is an error, an abomination to the eyes of the Machine God.

By the powers granted to me by the Auxilia Myrmidon, you will be terminated.

For all errors are to be amended.

Yeah, but still. When they had problems with the minis for Mansions of Madness, there was an official announcement on the news page. Rex was announced together with some other games (Nexus Ops, Wiz-war, Merchant of Venus) and they're both delayed / not very well news-supported. We just got one preview for Wiz-war and zero for Nexus, Rex and Merchant. Now, we know that Merchant could have problems because it seemed to be licensed twice to two different factories (FFG and Strongholds), but what about the others?

Nexus Ops actually got a preview, a bit before Wiz-War

I'm guessing they'll come out in this order:

1) Nexus Ops

2) Wiz War

3) Merchant of Venus

4) Rex

Uops, I should have missed it! Thx for notifying me :-) But anyway, nonetheless, some more info would be good

Not sure if I somehow missed this when the Rex page was first revealed, or if they have since updated it, but it was a pleasant surprise to find a picture of part of the board, some cards, and what may be one of the leaders on the home page for the product.  That ought to sooth my delay anxieties for awhile.  Not really what I was hoping for the board to look like, but it still looks fancy.

Either way, FFG has my money for at least 3 games next year (Rex, Fortress America, and Merchant of Venus).

Though, I may end up buying MoV from two different companies next year.

True. They have my money for at least two: REX and the Civilization expansion. And maybe Rune Age...

Thanks for pointing that out, Adam.

I agree, it's not what I had expected for the board, but I still intend to purchase this game basically no matter what.

Definitely.  Nothing will come between me and this game.

If anyone has some means of zooming in and reading the text on the cards or board, a transcription of your findings would not go unrewarded.  That is, if you consider a word of thanks a reward.

Thanks in advance.

When I saw that it went sort of backwards in the upcoming page it reminded me of Tide of Iron. FFG took serious whines when at first the minis weren't coming out right and then it was delayed about another 6 months because the map boards were coming out slightly warped. 

I don't mind waiting right now. Christmas killed the budget and it will be a little while before I get anything else.

 Hmmm I'm not so sure I like the Arkham Horror-esque map layout there...but I guess it could be worse. :p

...Now get to FIGHTIN!!!
