The newly printed Swords & Wizardry Core Rules softcover rulebooks arrived from the printer last week and have been shipping for about a week.

Additionally, marketing copies and promotional information has been provided to our distribution partner, Studio 2, marking the next big step in getting Swords & Wizardry into the distribution chain and ultimately into retail stores. The Core Rules have been entered into the distribution solicitation cycle with a planned retail release of March, 2010.

Studio 2 works with a number of distributors, including ACD Distribution, Alliance, Alladin Distributors and Premier Hobbies Distribution for US distribution. Retail stores buying through any of these distributors should be able to order and stock Swords & Wizardry Core Rules.
