(Commercial) Combat Patrol: WWII Released on DriveThru Cards

[Lardy Rich]

Buck, just to give you an idea on shipping costs.  If you ordered a copy of one of Chain of Command from our web site, the postage charge is about £8.  Actually, the postage charge is £10.50 but I swallow £2.50 as it is just too expensive otherwise.  When I post bulk orders to our suppliers in the US, Australia and New Zealand (i.e. long distance) the postage cost comes in at less than £2 per book.  The cost per card deck is tiny.  It may be that you need to link up with a UK distributor and send them by UPS (who are really exceptionally good) and that will save your stockists lots of money. 

I wish you all the best with the rules.  I have always admired your approach to game design.

Thanks, Richard. Do you have a recommendation of someone in the UK to whom I might each out?  You may not want to have that conversation in open forum, but perhaps by PM on TMP.  Also, you can reach me at surdu@acm.org.

Hi Buck

I am happy to post here.  North Star are, for my money, the most professional and pro-active distributor in the UK.  I have dealt with them for years and find every one of their team to be helpful and generally nice blokes.  As well as being a distributor, Nick publishes stuff and casts figures, so he has a huge list of contacts who can provide pretty much any service you need.

Their web site is here:  http://www.northstarfigures.com/

Best of luck.
