There is a 25 Euro discount from retail offered up in the pre-order, as well as a few additional punch boards and an exclusive character as well.

So...I'll probably end up caving on this one eventually!

When does the pre-order period end?

Looks like it ends September.

Yes same here. I have been interested in HoN but cartoon WW2 and Weird War 2 have never been my thing. However - cartoon gothic grimdark sci fantasy is my thing so ...

But ... you had to have registered with their site before yesterday in order to qualify to pre-order? WTF ...

That's more like a pre-preorder. Preorders to anyone else are in September. It's like a loyalty bonus to players who have been with them awhile, with little things like free shipping on a small demo kit that will ship earlier than the main game.

It seems expensive, but the Heroes of Normandie box was similar, and they put quite a ton of material in the box. Each side for Heroes of Normandie got about double, or triple, what would be played as a "large" force. I expect that in Black Reach as well.

I was moderately excited about the idea of this.. but have recently gotten back into actual Epic.. so I'll probably just redirect my funds to that.
