Street Dates, Promotional Videos, Ah, The Glories…
Been a long day of crazy exciting announcements and updates and in the back of my head I’m thinking “nope, not gonna get emotional”…
But screw that…gonna get crazy emotional (luckily you guys can’t see me right now so I don’t have to toss out the “British-stiff-upper-lip-no-something-in-my-eye” scenario).
It is in fact fully, totally and completely official. The Leviathans Core Box Set is in the warehouse and has a August 22nd Street Date!!!!!
And if that wasn’t cool enough, we finally get a sexy promo video for Leviathans that you can share far and wide to let everyone know what you guys already understand!
So, where does that leave us? A few specific set of details that hopefully will answer most questions:
1. Core Box Set is on US soil, in our warehouse and Street Date is August 22nd. Feel free to let your FLGS know so they can order it…it’s likely going to go very fast….
2. Those that pre-ordered the Core Box Set off our website, shipments will start heading out as early as next week.
If you ordered Fleet Boxes with the Core Box Set, we’ll still be shipping you your Core Box Set soon and will then ship the Fleet Boxes once those are in hand (thanks for your purchase!)
3. The Fleet Boxes are all finalized and in the process of getting on a ship. It’s generally around 8 to 10 weeks from the time it loads onto a ship until it’s on store shelves…once again, as soon as it’s in the warehouse, we’ll announce a Street Date.
4. Yes, the Core Box Set will be at Gen Con, and we’ll have limited quantities available every day, but first come first serve each day. To further clarify, yes, there will be several hundred copies available…but if the insanity of player enthusiasm from last Gen Con is any indication, line up early.
5. When will the first new release for Leviathans come beyond the Core Box Set and Fleet Boxes…wew…let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We’ve finally mucked out the bilge from the belly of the vessel and we’re finally lining up the big champaign bottle to crack over the keel and launch it skyward. We’ll come back to this question in a few weeks time.
If there’s any questions anyone has that’s not answered by the above quick check list, by all means, let me know.
I’ve said it many times and I’ll say it again…thank you! I’ve never been so professionally infuriated and hurt by all that got in the way of unleashing Leviathans…thank you for all those that have so patiently and enthusiastically waited for this day!
See ya next duty shift.

3 Cheers!!! Hip, hip, huzzah!!! Congrats to everyone at CGL and thank you for standing by your dream. Can’t wait for GenCon!!!
The long road is just starting!
That is fantastic!
Thank you for the update, and thank you for not giving up in the face of what must have seemed like the universe strenuously objecting to the production of the game. Congratulations~
Well, it’s about time
finally!
Great News!
I’ve waited to hear this since I learned of the game at last years Gencon. I can’t attend this year, but I’ve recruited several friends to pick me up a copy.
Just under three weeks to go
I tried cramming my wallet into the monitor again.
Don’t fight it monitor, you’ll only make things worse!
This is just like the beginning of December when I was a kid, slowly ticking off the days until Christmas. Thanks so much for your perseverance in the face of ridiculously annoying adversity. It’ll be well worth the wait.
All those people with little faith should now be stunned
There is one condition not covered. Pre-order through a FLGS. Is that actually #1, there is no FLGS pre-order?
Thanks for the great comments, guys!
Ramcat: Any retailer pre-orders would be handled straight through #1; i.e. even if someone pre-orders through a retailer, they don’t get it early…it just means that person guarantees he’ll get one through his FLGS when it hits the Street Date.
how is it with the intercontinental Shipping? will there also be a seperated delivery of the core box and the fleet boxes if you ordered them in the big pack?
I am so excited for this! I simply cannot wait any longer for I have been counting down the days until this year’s GenCon. This game will definitely be my first purchase of the best four days in gaming!
If we pre-ordered on here will we get an email notice of shipping when these go out?
Frischi: yes. Regardless of where you are at in the world, all Core Box Sets will ship out now…Fleet Boxes will ship out once we’ve received those in our warehouse.
Josh: Love hearing that…see ya in 6 days!
Andrew: If you ordered off this website (which took you to the BattleShop), then yes, you should receive an email notification.
