from what I have seen & gathered the distribution of R is all but ok.
The one thing I do know for a fact is that the distribution of R is good in the Netherlands for sure, well for now it is.
let’s hope this will be so as well worldwide, esspecially for the poor lads & gals in the UK.

I thought Simple Miniature Games distributed Rackham in the UK?

Only AT-43 at the moment (and the Confrontation starter), it seems they’ve dropped the metals and don’t really want to be involved with the latest version of Confrontation.

Esdevium (a partner of FFG as far as I can tell) handle most of the UK distribution now.

Where did it say FFG was going to stop carrying the metal minis? Did I miss a news item some place?

I would like to think Helldorado is more popular in the Vatican! Occidental faction only perhaps though some would like the demons!

i.e. It’s actually addressed to Asmodée

I think its being sent to their retail accounts in Europe.

Do you think they sell a lot of AT-43 in the Vatican? :-)

Note that the announcement actually begins with:
Dear Partner,
i.e. It’s actually addressed to Asmodée, not the player community. So it wouldn’t make much sense for them to mention Italy, UK, Malta, the Vatican, or any other place that Asmodée & Rackham are not distributing together.
