Great, that's a must have! Can we pre-order it?

I need to get an order in soon as well, real life meant I haven't been able to order much since the initial releases 

[LidlessEye]

I`m planning to put it up for pre-order on the website around Jan 15th, though I may do it sooner if Mike doesn`t mind keeping track of the preorders for a few extra weeks.

I should have a firm release date by the end of the day, once I've squared it away with the printers. Just gotta brave the snow...

[axabrax]

Awesome! I've been looking for an excuse to pick up these rules, and now seems like the time to do it! 

BTW: How hard would it be to shift the campaign to Victorian London?

Keep up the good work...

shifting the setting to victorian london would require so little work even i could do it

Well, if you just want to change the weapons up, it's fairly easy.  If, on the other hand, you're looking to introduce some completely new game mechanics, it could easily take a year or so develop...

Not keen on the suicide cultist personally, not a great sculpt or concept sorry. Far better and more grizzly ways to be rent assunder by the dark ones than any explosive that man to conjure up.

[fairoaks024]

commander vyper, you are assuming that when he hits the button he explodes,

it could be equally likely his sacrifice summons some gribbly, drooly horror in his place

A suicide cult now too? Any word on cultists armed with rifles and shotguns? I found the first two poses to be easy to modify into having clubs and bigger handguns, but I need a marksman.

"Nine completely new Lurkers,...."

Hey,
please can you be so kind and post the names of the Lurkers, so that I can start buying and assembling the minis,
because now I have time 

[Uncle Mike]

New Lurkers are as follows: Giant Vermin, Swarm, Mad Scientist, Rogue Threshold Character, Rogue Threshold Agent, Henchman, Suicide Cultist, Tcho-Tcho, Hybrid, Shambler and Fire Daemon.

And Bako, have models for the Cultists with Shotgun and Tommy Gun...out in a month or two...

Sounds good 

Are shamblers comparable to dimensional shamblers
and what to compare a Tcho-Tcho?

I think weapons would be sufficient and some tweaks to the background. I can't really think of any "special" rules that would be necessary. What were you thinking?
