    Yeah, so ... anticlimax. Where do we download, etc. Guess I'll go ADD on something else for a while.

    WTF... My code I got from Target says it's invalid.

    Are these O's zeros? I don't understand... Do I put the code in with the dashes?

    Target isn't listed as a pre-order partner so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

    Put all the dashes in.

    Also, I had a friend have issues with his where the O's were actually Q's but the little bottom thing on the Q was cut off on the print.

    Try putting some in as Q. I saw the card too and it definitely looked like an O but he tried Q and it worked.

    A cursory five-minute glance hasn't revealed whether or not it should be accepting Headstart and Item codes yet.

    edit: nevermind. Apparently dashes weren't needed for the OB code, but others need them...

    So are the special "character heads" like super cool? Because man it would suck ass to get the non-ce version if they did. I understand giving starter items, or like WoW, vanity pets, but that sucks for those of us who couldn't find a CE version to save their life. Hell i'd pay extra for more character head models, just don't make me buy something that (where I live at least) doesn't exist.

    Oh snap, you were right! The O's are actually Q's, but there's no visual indication that they're Q's... the curly queue on the bottom is completely cut off and it just looks like an O.

    We've only seen a few heads. One is an orc with an eyepatch.

    And please don't talk about the skaven cloak, it makes me sad. There aren't even any on ebay!

    I checked a few times the other day, and I'm surprised to not see them out yet either.

    Surprised and saddened :( I'm more than happy to pay for one.

    Any word on if you register, say, a Gamestop AND a Target reservation, both pop up (get both rings)?

    I'm hoping there's the usual (well, LotRO and Conan did it) PC Gamer with an item code. And maybe a zboard code, because more and more I think about picking one of those damn things up.

    I predict Morskittar to have a nervous breakdown and spend a lot of time in the Altdorf Sewers, or that other Skaven place.

    I already did. I have a handful of screens with my Warrior Priest getting jumped by skaven.

    I'm pretty sure people at Mythic have played WFRP before. They understand a key lesson; DO NOT GO IN RANDOM HOVELS OR SEWERS IN ALTDORF.

    so I put all my CE preorder stuff in

    is the item code just for the preorder bonuses or does it include the CE bonus items as well? I want the extra heads during the head start

    How is the headstart going to work if you don't have the game itself early? Digital download?
