Hey All,

I'm loving this game, however it seems like there is a serious shortage of booster packs to be had. This may be related to my region (I'm in New Zealand); are others having problems tracking down boosters? Are there other WAS fans "down under" that would consider trades?

Failing a "re-supply drop" of boosters for the Australia/New Zealand theatre, where is the best source for new hardware? I've heard Game Outfitter is good:

Are there any other favourite spots? Thanks for any help.

There is a serious lack of boosters at the moment. To an extent that's because the game was more successful than expected.

Visit the forumini (http://aaminis.myfastforum.org) to trade minis in its markethouse or visit ebay to buy singles.

Thanks for the help NeuralDream. It is amazing that the game has taken off to this extent, but a little frustrating to those not in the US who seem to be having difficulty finding minis. I'll look into ordering some new hardware from Miniature Market.

On another note: does anyone know if there is some sort of "seeding" that happens with the booster packs? In other words, are there a fixed number of random "sets" that are shipped? If you buy a case of boosters would you be less likely to get repeats than if you bought them individually?

Cheers for any thoughts.

Apparently (and my experience would agree), you never get repeated rares in a case: 12 boosters, 12 different rares. Uncommons and commons are another matter, of course, but it's still your best bet if you don't want to be stuck with three Richelieus ;)
