I guess it was quicker :o FFP must have dropped
preorders off at the PO on the way to GenCon,
my copy came Aug20th-about a month before I expected it.

The components are outstanding,the plastic figs are among the best I've seen :-*.The map looks small but IMO really sets the early 19th Century mood & game wise its big enough to play on without
things stacking up.

The rules are a little deeper than FFP Last Night on Earth but
seem to be clearer than LNoE(first game learning curve ..I guess)
I'm saving this for late Sept as the game just seems to call for
crisp Fall weather,mulled cider & ginger snap cookies ;D.

Again A CD was included of orginal music to enhance the game mood.
Frankly ,just like the one in LNoE it doesn't do it for me.It has
a driving beat to the music which make trying to concentrate
on a game impossible & of course can't really set a mood as its
impossilbe to play the game in sequence to the music.

Your doing something mundane like moving along a road &
you get this big build up & occasional odd vocals which
just don't match up :?Its a shame as obviously FFP puts
a lot effort into the CD's but so far they are more anoying
than anything..oh well the game is great & thats all that really matters.

I enjoyed the LNoE CD, simply as music.  I don't think it was really designed as accompaniment for playing the game.

I just got word from one boardgame supplier who is quite good on new releases. ( He ordered Last night when no one had heard of it and had them sharp)

....and aboslutely nothing. Bugger.

So anyone else got a date for the UK? Or someone who has them in stock in UK and are a good supplier?


Regards

Necrotious

EDIT : Best price I found for Last night is £24.

In reality are you less than 1 metre tall, with green skin, large pointy ears and the ability to do spectacular stunts whilst wielding a lightsabre?
