GENCON

Well we missed it again. Nope, Board Enterprises was not at GenCon. The last time we were at GenCon, Magic the Gathering was just coming into its own (and pushing all us smaller guys out) and there were no kids at home to worry about. Now the kids want to go.
Truth is, GenCon is bad for business. Not all business, but defiantly ours. I’ve talked to some other small press guys who are delighted to plunge in with every other new product, but it really seems to be a storm. A “you can’t see the forest for the trees” kind of thing with so many new products flooding the shelves and internet that too many get lost in the shuffling.
We’re not being bitter, just maybe a bit cynical. We mentioned before that we don’t release products in August anymore, because getting lost is not something we strive for. Keep checking back here and you’ll see new things soon enough!
and Thanks! We appreciate the fact that you expend enough time to check out what’s going on here.

New Product Feedback

We’re looking for a little feedback (either here or at info@boardenterprises.com). Some of you are asking for more world building products instead of our more normal supplements that give more ideas, etc. Our first idea is Urban Developments (working title). This is basically city building 101. We’re going with a whole logic concept, which, let’s face it, doesn’t always work in fantasy. We see it in many ways as being a complement to Grain Into Gold. Is this the type of thing you’re looking for?

We get crushed during August by the glut of new GENCON products that flood the industry. Therefore we don’t release new products during August. Expect a more idea based supplement in September, and hopefully the base unit to Rhum shortly after. Then we’ll see what you seem to want more.

Delays

Sorry for the delay in postings. Real life some times interferes with games, even when games are the job. Anyway - we’ll be back on our normal posting schedule momentarily - have no fear. If you ever want to ask a question or contact us in any way, please use the info@boardenterprises.com email address!
