Congratulations to all of you who pre-ordered! Now you can start clearing space to set up the map!

Great news on hitting its target. What is a ballpark estimate before it ships?

I think it's going to be awhile...

Preorder Note: Due to the size and nature of this product, we'e putting it on preorder before it is print-ready to assure the validity of its sales before further investing in the high cost of development and printing required for its completion. Depending on how preorders progress, there may (or may not be) a lag in final production after it hits its 950 preorders, but the sooner it hits, the sooner it will come out.

I received an email from Perry this morning, stating that MMP is "ramping up layout, proofing, and the development process". Not sure what all of that entails but sounds as if they plan to devote considerable resources to getting Manila ready. Time frame? No clue. You will have to ask Perry.

Too bad we can’t get Perry to work like Siri.... “Hey, Perry...”

Judging from that statement, 2-3 months. Maybe 4 on the outside.

What about a subscription service where Perry reads and discusses a rules section? ;)

What I am wondering about this module is if it can match Red Barricades in the CG stakes. The glorious thing about the RB CGs is that they are simple, user friendly and play beautifully. Will the Manila CGs be the same?
