True dat.

Jeff, looks terrific!

A couple of thoughts on the event details page:

1) I don't see a price listed for True Grind.

2) It specifically mentions using the Trio of Might for 5th Level Cards. Perhaps it should also mention the Charm/Medallion/Ring of Heroism to play 5th Level? Probably no need to mention the Eldritch 2 Item Set bonus for Ranger and Druid for 5th Level, as anyone with 2 Eldritch Items probably already knows that.

3) It says "you don't roll dice in True Dungeon" - but you do in fact role dice for initiative, saves, etc. I know it is referring to combat, but it's not quite accurate. Maybe change it to "You don't roll dice to attack in True Dungeon".

4) Under the 2015 Token Collection, it mentions that tokens were introduced at GENCON SOCAL in 2003. It's true they were first offered for sale at GENCON SOCAL in 2003, but they were actually introduced at the very first True Dungeon in GENCON Indy in 2003, you had to get them as Dungeon Treasure.

5) You might want to delete "UPDATE: Due to a labor dispute on West Coast ports, the mailing out of pre-orders has been delayed until Feb. 20th. Any order placed now will be shipped at that time.", as it is OBE.

6) This is a long-standing suggestion, but I'd suggest in addition to showing the 2015 Token Collection, you also show the 2014 Ultra-Rare collection, with a note that they are all orderable this year, before they go out of print when the 2015 Tokens are sold out, or on 1 Oct 15 (whichever comes first). I think that might drive some additional token sales.

Thanks!
Mike

That happened in 2008 too, I think we were facing Vecna? (was my first True Dungeon experience. Worst Sudoku ever >> I also got molested by a illithid that run...

That's right - both dungeons ended in a single room at least twice - against Smoak and against Iuz.
