Origins Demo

[Arnminster]

Just wondering if the actual location of the demo is known yet.

Possible locations

Dealer Room (With WoC?)
Board Game area (Near the D&D Minis & Star Wars Minis - Unless they changed the location of these events as well)
Historical Minis area
Other?

Origins is a big con so I did'nt want to spend an hour or 2 looking for the Demo.

Also are any of the designers going to be there?

At Origins we will be focusing on Nexus Ops and RoboRally. I'll have a room set aside for industry press previews but we won't be launching the game there. We are planning a big extravaganza at Gencon to properly introduce the game and I imagine that you will be able to meet a few designers then.

But will we be able to buy any of the A&A minis stuff at GenCon??? :confused:
After all it is only 1 week before the official launch date so there should be retail ready packages available by then... ;)

Actually was the street date changed to Sept. 16th as per the Press release?

Attendees of GENCON this August will have a special advance buying opportunity for Axis & Allies Miniatures at the Wizards of the Coast booth. The national on-sale date for Axis & Allies Miniatures is currently September 16. The first expansion is scheduled to hit store shelves on December 7, with additional expansions planned throughout 2006

Sweet... :D

What exactly will the advance buying opportunity consist of??? Will there be the full retail offering or a scaled down selection. Also will there be some sort of limit to purchasing since it will be a full month ahead of retail release?

This sounds great!
