Battlegroup Bagration hardback print files are all ready and we have found (after careful vetting!) a good hardback book printer in the UK and the plan is to have the deluxe hardback Bagration finally printed and shipped by end of August – many thanks again everyone for your patience and understanding.

For each new title in the future we will offer a limited deluxe hardback edition pre-order printed in the UK before moving to a standard print on demand softback with local shipping rates.

Talking of local shipping rates…………..

To avoid confusion and to make sure print on demand customers get the correct low shipping rates, when ordering a print on demand title please select “Print on Demand Books” when prompted to choose a shipping rate in checkout!

FUTURE RELEASES NEWS

We can also confirm that the next release will be Battlegroup Küstrin for just before Christmas followed by Battlegroup Cassino and Battlegroup Far East in spring and summer 2025!

We also hope to have the first divisional scenario book released – Battlegroup 21st Panzer – in Autumn 2025. All of these titles are confirmed and underway with the design team already. As you can see we are really ramping up the releases for Battlegroup.

That’s all for now, but next week we will take another look at ‘Nam 68 – Tour of Duty’ as we will have details of the pre-order and release date plus an update on ‘Battlegroup Commander’.

Look out on Sunday when we will have a miniatures update too, as we are busy on this front as well!

Viet-nam, Republic of? Don’t mean nothin’ – not a thing…

Is it like Battlegroup Vietnam?

No… Nam68 is a new design… but Battlegroup Ia Drang will be the Vietnam book.

Sounds cool!

[bloodmoonorcParticipant 1763xp 1]

Nam68 sounds very interesting. Narrative gameplay where you take a platoon through a tour of duty, suffering casualties, picking up FNG’s etc and against a generated enemy that will appear and disappear during battles. Clever stuff.

Probably be a good idea to state if the Print on Demand books are softback or hardback (we don’t want a redo of the whole Bagration fiasco again) on the PSC website. At the moment it doesn’t, well not that I can find anyhow.

 

I must admit when using other print on demand companies (such as Drive thro RPG etc) you can get a choice of getting a softback or hardback book. Maybe PSC might want to reach out to the company doing to printing to see if they can offer both versions?

All softbacks, the costing options for hardback aint worth it really. Looked at it, got samples and just wasn’t a great option. Increases shipping cost too.

Plus each new title will have a traditional print hardback edition to start.
