I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it!!
My copy of the original Deluxe Box set just arrived from Canada today! Top that with a phone call to my FLGS owner, who promised me he would put my order for the Revised Deluxe set in first thing tomorrow!! Wooooot!

The original Deluxe Set was never officially available in the UK (except if you went to the trouble of getting it as a special import; some retailers might have done this).
The WW2 Deluxe Set is £55 in my local games shop, so I'd expect shop prices on the new WW1 set to be much the same. Of course, it can be had cheaper online. I paid €40 for it in Essen.
That is good news. It will put all our minds at rest. Go Santa, go Its a cool yule man.

Hi Guys - the UK distributor we use still doesn't have them listed so think they may have been delayed
Nothing on the Coolstuff website yet. It's still listed there as available as 'pre-order'.
I did pre-order... and I'm anxiously waiting....
Karl,
Nice to see some Ohio flyers from the Northeast part of the state. I thought that the Cleveland-Akron-Youngstown-Painesville quadrant was undefended until now
OK so a quick update!
My local shop has confirmed my copy has shipped and will be here for end of next week or early the next!
Huzzah!
Called my LGS since I got a UPS delivery at my store yesterday (turns out it was an "urgent"). He checked his page with Alliance, and my pre-order was ERASED!!!
He's going to call first thing Monday, and get a re-order in; hope there are still enough left. (Just what happened with the series 4 plane order)

I expect mine this week sometime. I believe deliveries are on Thursday. Got my version 1 from Canada for about $70 US. included shipping. I think the deluxe sets are a great value!
Starting to do my head in seeing all you across the pond getting it and we can't even pre order yet...
For Uk
Just ordered the Revised edition from Shire Games £37
Just phoned my dad to order it me for Xmas....then I notice it has German rules!!!
Why?? It has been released with english rules so why get in the german game...very annoyed as it's pointless buying it...I don't have a printer...also it says the rules are at fantasy Flight...so are they the new deluxe edition rules? If not whats the point.
Anyway I was to late to stop my dad so I will be getting a worthless game...
Can't find the deluxe rules in english....well I will keep it until it becomes rare then sell it I think....
This has put me off WoW to be honest I don't feel like spending more money on it £40 is alot of money to spend on a game you can't play and have to buy three sets to get the contents of the deluxe version that you bought but it was in german...
Damn I wish I hadn't got so excited and phoned my Mum straight away for my dad to order it me...

They did stock the old edition in German rules so maybe they are presuming the new edition has aswell or they just changed the pic and added revised edition to the advert of the old deluxe edition.
Really don't want to mess my dad about to be honest...so I will just make the most of a bad job. It has the planes and cards...I will have to download the rules on my memory stick and find a good printers as I want the glossy paper and all! Not sure what rules I should download though as I hear the deluxe edition has all the rules in it.
@The Cowman...whoops missed your post...thanks for the offer! I couldn't find the deluxe rules in English....however if you come across them I will be eternally grateful!
Hi Jason, I got a copy of the English rules.
As for the cards etc in the deluxe they are no different than from the box sets
Jason sent you a link
You can download the first deluxe rulebook from this site here:
http://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/dow...do=file&id=215
It seems identical to the new one, except the altitude chart, which has more planes on it now. You can get the modern, complete altitude chart from the Flight of the Giants rules, which can be downloaded here (you have to register first):
http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/ed...eidm=24&esem=4
I'm sure they will have the new rules in the coming weeks.
Hi all, if my post about the revised edition has misled anyone my apologies. I was only concerned about the new paint jobs. The rules I know I can download and print off. But again I did not intend to mislead anyone as to the English rules availability. I have already contacted Wodin ref this as I do have a Printer .
@Boney...thanks for the offer I've PM'd you back.
No need to apologise..the price of the game was very cheap so no worries.
I notice there are no scenarios in the rulebook....
No the scens are the same as in the box sets, all the deluxe version gave you was the rules for minis.
The scens can be downloaded from same website
as already sent
The scenarios can also be downloaded from the files section of this site, here:
http://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/dow...do=file&id=214
The original Deluxe Set scenarios from that file are the same as those in the Revised Deluxe Set.
I've calmed down now...no worries...got abit over excited...hehe...anyway once it comes now I need some of those smoke and flames aswell as the gimble mounts...followed by a few more planes....is the Airco DH 2 available in mini's? Love to fight it out between an DH 2 or a Vickers Gunbus against an EIII....recreate some fights from one of my favourite book trilogies by Derek Robinson...
Anyway thanks for the offers of printing...Boney lives the closest so I will take his offer if needed.
I did encounter a bit a of a difficulty regarding rules. The original deluxe boxed set I purchased has rules in French - not a problem yet as the guy I was playing with was French and I too speak it. I then downloaded the rules in English from the files section here. When another friend came over to play he referred to the rules in English. At one point each of them was referencing their copy of the rules, but the rules differed in what they said. Funny now, but a puzzle as to what to do then! I cannot remember the rules dispute or the outcome.
Point being: be sure you agree on which version of the rules you will be using in group play or in a competitive environment or at a tourney. When you solo it you can cheat yourself blind, as long as the other guy agrees.
I ordered two from Shire Games - them saw that they were german language...duh
Still it not a major problem, and I suspct Ive saved a bit of money as well
Purchased in Rome just arrived less than an hour ago!
