You could only receive these if you placed and early order during the early order period, so the offer is now closed.
The next such promotion, for Lawrence, Broken Axis, Counterattack, and Fall of Empires, included a division for I.A., plus the U.S. spearhead division and GD 44. This offer is also now closed.
These divisional countersheets are quite costly, as evinced by the price for the digital download sheets now on sale..$30 bucks for a single sheet, up to 60 for the Moscow division which requires 3 sheets! Mike has indicated that this kind of promotion for new releases will be dialed back, by which I figure he was giving away a little too much in exchange for the venture capital we were laying out.
Geez Louise... I guess it's my own fault for waiting until now to get back into PG!!!
The laser cut counters are very nice, but I can't bring myself to invest in them as such. I would be thrilled to get my hands on a die cut set (hint hint... anyone who wants to sell me theirs if they are replacing them with laser cut) or even the original pdf downloads. I sent Mike an email asking about the pdf downloads and he replied that the artwork is no longer available on the server. I don't necessarily believe that, since we're talking a couple of pdf files, but I understand that he is in business to make money, and if that is his position, then so be it. I just won't pay that much money for special counters, regardless of how pretty they may be. If they are part of a game, that's one thing, but just to add a bit of aesthetic value is another thing altogether. Just not for me.
