I actually received it and its seems ok, just not sure how Warlord Games and “Geek” are associating the mat with the new Epic ACW line, other than its Gettysburg.
75% of the mat covers the area south of town and west of Emmitsburg Rd, leaving only 25% of the mat usable for only the NW quadrant of the first days battle aka the scenario included in the starter sets, minus the area North of Town. Thus, if you play the Gettysburg Day 1 scenario from the game book, its about an area of 2 feet by 3 feet at most.
Does not have even close to the detail the Cigar Box Battle Mat for Gettysburg has.
Already sending photos to Warlord per their request.
Even without seeing the photos they are blaming the shipper.
If indeed the shipper rough handled the box, which there is no evidence of, its perfect and has not been opened re-sealed, the fact the one small “brigade box” which had no shrink wrap , while the other one did, would not have spilled its contents with shrink wrap around it.
In addition, one small crushed bundle of brown paper to keep the big box and 2 smaller ones from being tossed is not enough.
Frankly, between this issue, Warlords new extra shipping fee, new minimum order policy to ship, slow shipping and processing times as well as waiting a month still for my Gettysburg mat to be even processed or shipped is just too many issues in too short a time.
I do not even want anything from them as a result of the damaged and bent plastic swords.
Just an acknowledgement they will not allow this to happen to other customers like you.
I am sending the photos to them today, but no matter what, I refuse to order directly from them ever again.
I have a great local dealer, who gets all their pre-orders and gets them to you faster than Warlord can.
MUCH faster, and packed with care.
Hi,
I am in the USA, and the package went thru customs at Los Angeles California (Californication).
However, the outer box was flawless, something I would not expect if the same customs trashed the inside.
Its possible though.
Regardless of the reason, I am no longer going to order directly from them.
Instead I will wait for my online game shop located physically here in the USA to get Warlords products including pre-order products.
In fact, I already have and they are faster, shipping cost less, and packed with care, as well as bubble wrap.
Warlord only threw in a sad single brown hand twisted crushed brown packing paper on one side, whoopi doo
Been using these plastic fishing tackle trays and similar since 1992.
Just make sure they are deep enough to clear riders, bayonets, lances, flags etc.
