Street Date
I was on the fence until about a couple of weeks ago when the reviews won me over. I have ordered the gold foil version from my FLGS and will pick up the PDF when available. Which brings me to my question. Now that the pre-orders are arriving, when is the official street date for the game? Now that I'm on board I'm eager to get my hands on this thing.

Re: Street Date
I'm not sure that I've heard an official street date for this, but I assume it will be a few weeks. I know that some 3PP products are essentially ready to go, but those companies have a secret date (which they cannot share) as to when they may start to release their DCC products.
I assume that those dates are pretty close to one another so that the core book hits the store right about the time product support arrives, but I haven't heard either date given for certain.

Welcome to the forums, GrayP!
There's no single street date. Too much depends on the chain of distribution:

That said, DCC RPG will ship from distributors the week of May 21st -- meaning retailers could have it as soon as Tuesday, May 22, and even the slow ones should have it later that week.

How about a date when it will go on-sale at DriveThruRPG?Harley Stroh wrote:Welcome to the forums, GrayP!

Yes, I'm kicking myself for not pre-ordering
