Pueblo, Colorado

Isn't that where the government's underground pamphlet vault is?

Does the FBI or CIA know about this? How about Ikea? They would salivate at thought of all the shelving units they could sell ya.

If Ikea finds out, the marketing emails will never end.

Yeah but you can teach your kids how to pronounce all the furniture names so when they get back to your Ex's she'll think they're going around swearing in Swedish.

I was going on the basis that a search for the MSC MIA showed it heading for Gdansk.

I'm well aware that LnL thought it would be in Liverpool by Jan 8th - I couldn't see how that was possible as it was heading through the English Channel to Gdansk only the day I posted.

I'll be very happy when I get it - I'm just not holding out for anytime soon.

Also I've written 3 times to Second Chance Games asking if they were the distributors (which they are - just looking for confirmation from them that they would've been in receipt of my order details) and asking if they had an update. No response to all 3.

But - I wait patiently. In all honesty, even when it gets here the likelyhood is I'll open it and go back to Combat!. Have I mentioned how superb that game is - warts and all?  >:D

Have you tried asking Mark at SCG on his FB page? I've done that before and got a response off him.

From David on FB 6 hrs. ago:

The US Trucks are now unloading at our warehouse in Pueblo, Colorado. The warehouse team will need a few days to make sure everything is properly received and entered into inventory. We get some pictures and more updates shortly.

 :D

And then there's this:

Quote
As many of you know the vessel that the UK-EU container is on did not stop at the port of Antwerp and unload as was told to us. It is now in Poland docked and I assume unloading there. The only confirmation I received was it would be in Liverpool on January 10, 2020. They have not told us anything else. We have asked if it was the right ship? was there a mistake? I am promised more details early next week.

Sorry JD.

lol - I'm cool about it. Combat! is taking all my time. It's actually the longest time I've not only had a boardgame out on the table, but consistently gone back to. I've had to pack it up off the table over Christmas but it was straight back out as soon as I had the chance.

New FB update from David on FB:

We were giving the wrong vessel name. The correct vessel is the MSC Mandy and it is in the UK. Our container should be in Liverpool on January 10, 2020.

Not yet; I think they were packing this week, so stuff should start sending out from Colorado pretty soon.
