Sometimes we do run out of a printed product that is already assembled (SFB modules or FC expansions, especially). Mike then lets Leanna know that more need to be printed and bound. Smile

Luckily we have everything we need to do that.

Got everything.

I have "punching out counter" fatigue and I'm not even halfway through.

I would have left it til later but several of the 1 inch counters popped out and I figured now was as good a time as any and dang.

I think SFB had more when I did this with SFB, though.

if you think SFB had a lot of counters, try punching out Federation and Empire...i didnt want to see a counter again after that, and i think i lost my fingerprints.

I haven't bought any F&E since 1995, and I don't think I punched out any counters before it ended up in storage. I was a bit overwhelmed by the sheer scale.

Rookies...

Laughing

I have over 45K of them right now... all cut by X-acto knife... never punched...
All have been 'corner-rounded'...
\and all are stored, by individual ship type... not class, but type... in 18 compartment organizers.

And I know two others with over 60K F&E counters each.

I'm not a rookie, I just haven't played wargames in ages.

Don't feel like Tony was calling you a rookie.

He's just reveling in his "cardboard addiction". Murfreesboro is the home of half of ADB's sales, or so I've heard. Nobody can compare to their level.

It was late or I would have answered with better humor.

And I totally understand the cardboard addiction. Why just the other day I was cutting up Ogre countersheets.

I ordered two sets of the Kickstarter OGRE 6E version, during the campaign.

I severely underestimated just how crazy Steve Jackson was going to go with the unit count in the thing. With the add-on sponsored sheets I bought, there was MORE than enough variety for me.

So, I let my second (unopened) copy go and sold it at-cost to my friendly (almost) local gaming store. They found a new home for it within a week, which was cool.

I was hoping to get to meet it's new owner at the "Play OGRE Day" event there, tomorrow, but unfortunately I'll be doing overtime at work.
