We are ready for Gen Con Indy and looking forward to a very successful and fun Gen Con. We hope to see many of you there. A lot of this week went toward final prep for Gen Con. I mean, hey, it’s the first official appearance of Robotech® RPG Tactics™ at a convention this size. We also engaged in a number of meetings, Skype conferences, and work on other books and products.

The first Flash Sale – Wake the Dead – all Dead Reign® (zombie) titles, was a big success. Our thanks to all of you who participated. As I’ve said, we can’t sell everything at half price, but we’ll be offering up some pretty exciting specials. And the latest one is below. I think next week’s sale will be Rifts® Heavy Metal (miniatures) followed by a Robotech® or Nightbane® Weekend Flash Sale.

Hardcore Rifts^® – Flash Sale

– Select “core” Rifts^® titles at exciting discount prices

– July 24, 25 & 26, 2015 – Friday, Saturday and Sunday Only

The following 12 Rifts® books are what we consider “core” titles that everyone should own or which inspire adventures in Rifts® North America. If you have been thinking about starting a Rifts® campaign or filling out your collection, this may be an excellent time to do it. These sales are great for buying gifts. And to make things even more fun and exciting, the discount is not the same across the board in this sale. Some of the select titles below have a steeper discount than others. Available for ONE weekend only, July 24-26, 2015. Enjoy. Celebrating 25 years of Rifts®.

Whew, so much has been going on. We got Robotech® Expeditionary Force Marines™ Sourcebook to the printer and I have already approved the printer’s proof, been working Chaos Earth® Resurrection, Gen Con prep, Gen Con exclusives, and more! Read on for the latest, though I’m going to try to keep this fairly short. There is so much to do before Gen Con. And nothing goes easy. Nothing. Grrrr.

Our first Flash Sale starts today. It is the Wake the Dead sale – zombies and the supernatural. I was going to make it Rifts®, but this type of limited, one weekend only sale is something new for us and I didn’t want to start with a big Rifts® sale as the very first offering. The Rifts® Hardcore Flash Sale will be next weekend (the RUE RPG and 12 other “core” titles!), with different Rifts®, Robotech® and other game line flash sales to follow in the weeks ahead. Yes, it is the 25th anniversary of Rifts® and the 30th for Robotech®, but we’ll try to make most game lines part of this celebration over the next couple of months (especially since I didn’t think of it for Palladium Fantasy® or Heroes Unlimited’s 30th anniversaries). Not all sales will be a steep 50% off, but they will all range from 30%-50% so keep your eyes peeled!
