WAVE 2 & STARTER SETS
Does anyone know, or heard, if the reprint starter sets will be shipped with Wave 2?

Sorry to hear you're not well Ed, rum and (anything) might help you through
Thanks for your concern and advice DanOriginally Posted by Berthier
Sorry to hear you're not well Ed, rum and (anything) might help you through, but being the good Polack that I am, I just started the Belvedere cure.
Ed, as a Scotsman I suggest a hot toddy before you go to bed, Whiskey, honey and boiling water (cloves, cinnamon and sugar if you want to get fancy).
Haven't heard or read anything that indicates Wave 2 ships and the reprint starter sets will be shipped at the same time. It would make sense to do so, but overseas production is pretty unpredictable?
Sorry to hear you're under the weather. Drink lots of liquids (of various persuasions) and get lots of rest!
Hoping you feel better, Ed.
I imagine the starter set would be a periodic reprint, and I would not be surprised if there are two printings this year, especially if the next one sells out quickly. Unlike some of the ships in a given wave, I think new players would typically desire the ships in the starter set. It's hard to beat the value, especially from most of the online retailers.
That is the cure for a real Man of the sea:)Thanks for your concern and advice Dan
Right, Eric. The first delivered Starter Sets have been sold out immediately in Poland. Fortunately the stores had a second supply run and I bought my 2nd SS at once. Great price for the value.
And it seems to be working
When I asked Ares if reprint starters will ship the same time as wave 2, this is the answer I got,
Ares Games says:
No, Wave 2 ships are about one month ahead of the reprint.
Hmmmm. . . .does that mean Wave 2 is ahead of schedule or the Starter Set reprint is much later than they initially predicted?
Of course "Spring" officially lasts until June 20th in 2014. So, I'm betting Wave 2 is May and Starter Set is June.
If you mean the end of May and the end of June, my money is on you.
There still seem to be starter sets available in the UK if anyone is interested. http://www.gameslore.com/acatalog/Ga...ml#aARESGN001A
And Belvedere cure is? (Whatever it is, sounds something like one could almost wish to get a fluThanks for your concern and advice Dan
Belvedere, a top notch Polish Vodka. And it worked. Sweated it out last night.:And Belvedere cure is? (Whatever it is, sounds something like one could almost wish to get a flu
I have vague memories of such a season.
Spring hit here in Texas last week. Temperatures in the 70's. Plants started blooming. This week...temperatures down into the teens and sleet covering the ground like snow. This coming Friday...back to the 70's. Typical Texas weather.
Yeah, this winter has been an interesting one to say the least. It is getting long, though. I am tired of canceling plans due to weather, and I am starting to get cabin fever.
I have a pot of chicken soup going right now, it will be ready in about twenty minutes.....
If ya don't like the weather...just wait.
So, it was funBelvedere, a top notch Polish Vodka. And it worked. Sweated it out last night.:
So much so, that I must get sick more oftenSo, it was fun
I use similar medicine when sick, but it's called šljivovica (shlyivovitsa, plum brandy), and it's followed by sauerkraut and hot peppers (well, garlic, too)
Now there's a mix I'm not sure I'm man enough for.I use similar medicine when sick, but it's called šljivovica (shlyivovitsa, plum brandy), and it's followed by sauerkraut and hot peppers (well, garlic, too)Is that supposed to stay down
My cures of choice: lots of chicken noodle soup, BBQ pork with Chinese hot mustard, and upgrading my Phad Thai (WHEN I find someplace that can make it without that nasty, allergic-reaction-triggering fish sauce), Mongolian and curry from no-star to two-star.
Fire In The Hole at both ends once it starts to work and I get my senses of smell and taste back, but... it's what works for me.
Thai food without fish sauce? That's like Chinese without soy or a steak without salt!!
Having said that it is their salt so you could substitute and cook it at home, or not and just stick with a hot Indian curry (Lamb Vindaloo anyone...).
Trust me, you don't wanna feed me anything with fish or shellfish in it unless you like seeing rapid, wide-area redecoration in Bile Green. Last time it happened, the projectile vomiting was so bad it was like "Holy crap, was that my SHOE?!" It's that fast an allergic reaction, and that violent... I actually know a Thai place up here that's very good about working with me and my folks on our allergy issues.
I will never, bring up, being under the weather again.
Ed, I tend to agree...
You ever throw up so much, Linda Blair said "Hey, tone it down"? >;)
I always picture fish sauce, Vietmanese nước mắm, being made in a rural setting with fish being laid out on bamboo slats and the juice being collected below as it drips from the rotting fish.
:O Sorry 'bout that, guys... *flings Poo at Chris*
Candidate for official Anchorage Shirt?
LOL... didn't see the link in there, did you? It's a card game my cousin and his kids introduced me to last time I went to GenCon... bathroom humor, but you can't help but laugh at it. Even if it were official, you'd never see me in it since I only wear 5.11 Tactical... :D
I did not see it until I was using the quote in my post and saw the link within the quote. Sounds like a game I need.
Funny thing... back in my War at Sea days, one of the guys at Forumini had a riff on that as his av over there.

Hand-thrown, or did you use a slings*it? ;)
Chris, meant I was throwing the card game, not actual fecal matter. :p
Well over here we take this stuff seriously - there is proper research done on the affects of Chicken soup on Flue and Hay-Fever.
The conclusion is ... It actually REDUCES the White-Blood Cell count. And the explanation for the effectiveness is that our bad feeling and runny noses
is usually an over reaction of the immune system to the virus.
Well that's the theory - I am not sure my Grandmother approves of it, but Chicken Soup with Schmaltz and Gribenes, was the order of the day when I was ill.
When I was growing up (in the 40's & 50's) chicken soup was the cold cure of the day. And hot milk with a little butter was the cure for a sore throat.
Given the quality of naval fare in this period, I couldn't be sure.... ;)
If you had to guess, would you say they're thinking more "dialing down the overreaction", or just the psych effect of "comfort food"?
If I remember the article correctly its an actual reduction in the immune system, as it overreacts to the allergens.
YesNow there's a mix I'm not sure I'm man enough for.
Only, if you eat to many hot peppers you'll remember their exit
Something that I get the feeling hasn't changed much outside of submarine service, LOL.
In all seriousness, you should check that game out... it seems to be just your kind of humor. :)
I did -- _PHART!: The Dispersing_ was more up my alley.
OK, bad choice of phrase.... >;)
My Grandmother would not agree. She made the best Chicken Soup, Whatever "science" says - her chicken soup always made me feel better. Now back to the REL topic of the forum! LOL
Let me guess... your favorite general in Command & Conquer: Zero Hour is Dr. Thrax? :P
"Nothing... can LIVE beneath my toxic cloud!"
LOL
Never played it.
