@sundancer boxes may not be expensive, but there is a world of difference between throwing things in a box and making sure it can survive transport across the ocean.

Awaken Realms have made packaging into an art form (good quality cardboard box, foam inserts to absorb damage … the works).

I wish companies across the world would learn from them, but that may be a big ask.

@jamescutts maybe they will learn … and they do appear to have learned something from their previous kickstarter.
However I’ve got my doubts. They’ve shown the will to fix mistakes, but at the same time it’s the kind of mistakes I wouldn’t expect from a company with a legacy like that.
Maybe the net result of this kickstarter is a revival of Battletech outside of the USA so they will rethink their global strategy and logistics ? Or maybe they don’t because the fans got “all” so the support for local FLGS is minimal …
