Yes, it's fun to look back at the humble beginnings isn't it! I'd forgotten about the missing board. Good thing you guys had colored pencils laying around. ;) For anyone else reading this, Gary is a friend of ours and he and his wife Lisa, were some of our earliest "test subjects". We made them play dozens, if not hundreds, of games of Castle Panic back before we had even started Fireside Games. Don't worry, we played other games too... Hi Gary!

The two online retailers that we know for certain are taking pre-orders are www.thoughthammer.com and www.coolstuffinc.com.
