I have just recently started my Birthright game and am really enjoying it...
Unfortunately, nothing is in print anymore! I have all of the Anuire
accessories, but I cannot find the Havens of the Great Bay, Cities of the Sun,
or Rjurik Highlands books! I ordered them from my local game store, but they
couldnt get it because they said it was out of print! The Gods toy with me, I
swear...

I know that some new material is going to be released in July... Does anyone
know if they are going to put the books I mentioned back in print? Please say
they are... I dont want my campaign to be restricted to Anuire...

If anyone has any information or if anyone knows where I may be able to obtain
the products in question, please tell me... I will love you forever.

They gotta pay me for this soon. The Compleat Strategist in NYC has copies
of all of those products. In stock, on the shelves. OOP? I doubt it.
Probably their supplier is out and is just saying that. We just went
through this on the PS list. The supplements are out there! Just keep
looking.

Well, if you're sufficiently desperate, and sufficiently diligent, you can
usually find copies of out of print stuff, especially stuff that only
reciently went out of print.

I'd suggest trying amazon.com & hitpointe.com (yes, the e at the end is NOT
a typo).
Also, what I always do is look at my most recient issue of Dragon magazine,
and there's usually an add in there for figurines or something that list
game companies all over the country, and I just start dialing. . .

For a headstart on that kind of thing, call Crazy Egor's in New York 1st (I
don't have their # handy & I don't want to turn this into TO much of an
advertisement). You should be able to get just about every BR product, if
you're willing to dig for 'em.

Hmmmn. Did you try any online stores? I know CITIES OF THE SUN and BOOK OF
MAGECRAFT (along with several of the domain packs) have been out of our
warehouse for some time, but HAVENS and RJURIK should still be available.

It is my hope that, after the HC comes out, we'll start printing some of
these products again as well. However, I seriously doubt that any of the
campaign expansions will ever be made available in BOXED format again.
Books, maybe ...

Hmm. I better scrape up the money to
buy BoPC and the Vos book before those disappear forever too.

Not to tell you how to run your buisness, obviously. But what
white wolf does to products that arnt selling all that well is
push them all into one big book and sell that at a slightly
lower price.

I wouldnt even mention-- but stuff like Cities of the Sun,
Havens of the Great Bay, etc etc.. Those are pretty 'important'
books for the campaign setting. It'd be kinda like having the
dungeon masters guide go outta print. Sure, you can play without
it, but......

I was in London a couple of weeks ago and the Virgin megastore on Oxford st
had quite a good selection of Birthright material.

Perhaps you could try one in the States. They seem to be in all the major
cities.

Lower price than the collection, you mean ... I assume.
That's what I'd like to do. We'll have to see how the HC does (early signs
are VERY favorable).

Maybe not that necessary but, yes, to the BR campaign, those expansions are
really important. I hope we can reprint them in some manner.
