| I have heard from an FLGS that the promo that comes for each case of DuD ordered is the Tiefling Warlock.

| That's kind of a nice incentive to go the FLGS route. Even nicer would be packs of 2.0 cards though....

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror. | |

The promo item for ordering cases of 4E books (if I remember correctly, it was a minimum of three cases of the PHB and at least two cases each of the DMG and MM, with 12 books in each case) is a large DM screen made to look like a castle wall with towers.

| The DM screen looks wicked cool but it's a Diamond / Alliance exclusive.......yuck! The figure that comes with a case is (I was told) only for preordered cases and later orders won't have them. I am not sure how Flags will handle that but my preordered cases at my B&H will all come with one. | |

Talk to your FLGS. Ours is printing up DoD 2.0 cards and selling them at cost.

| And you have to order from Alliance Game Distrubuters not just anyone to get the screen. According to Auggest they are a huge pain in the butt to deal with Â

I agree with you that it isn't a mini I will use much, if at all, for bad dudes in my campaigns. I agree that there are multiple superior choices.

| The repaints were 1 per case of boosters, only offered at time of pre-order. I have one sitting around my truck now and the rest went up on Ebay in short order. BTW, the picture posted of the repaint was taken from an ebay auction perhaps? It looks very much like the one I took.Â
Beyond that, since the store didnt have any pre-orders from local players....if you buy cases I suggest asking the store if they perhaps might have one or two...either that or expect ebay to be flooded with them any time now. | |

| | No, didn't preorder a case. The store did and therefore they are going to sell the promos when she comes up with a price. The previous promos were given away. Oh well. | |

| Hi Everyone, I know this is off topic. But is there a reason that the the Tieflings in the last half dozen or so sets look nothing like the Harbinger Tiefling? Ever since the movie Road Warrior, villains with punked out red mohawks worked for me. :)
Later,
