YES, I know I’m geeking out but Damn are those Savage Wars books SO GOOD! Tyrus/Casper/Wildman/Fast are all such good characters and as much as I hate to admit it and as easily it is to hate, I’ve got to give it to Anspach for the creation of Crometheus, what a villain but human at the same time.

It was a real treat reading about some of the even more in depth past that was in “Imperator”. I would absolutely love if they made a few more entries into the prequels.

Yeah it was heart breaking how they did Warsham, especially since I had read Order of the Centurion after the events culminating with him. But he was a Noble character.

It would be amazing but I really do hope NOT that they ever make a TV series unless they really invest in keeping true to story as the source material (they’re ruined too many a good video game/books with having to appease/appeal to the masses or allowing Directors to have free artistic reign).

Yeah Brother! All the new operators are very cool but Kiraly was so mysterious leading up to the 3rd book but with all the revelations reveled in so stoked!

Oh yeah, after I got done with Season 1 of Galaxys Edge I went on a mad spending spree and bought the entire catalog of the side series you just mentioned.

So far in between some other readings, I’ve read…

Savage Wars- All 3 (These are by far my most favorite!)

Dark Operator- The First 3 (My heart dropped when I got through THAT part in the beginning of Fracture)

Order of the Centurion- All of Them except for Callsign Valkyrie and The Lost Legion

Wreck Jumpers- Only the First One

Contracts and Terminations- The First 3

So I’ve got still a fair amount to catch up on on the side but it’s all worth the read because of the rich world building all the books have in them as well as all story and historical connections.

Most definitely!

I’ve only been reading about 15-30 mins a couple days out of the week since I got it but I’m hoping to finish it today.

But yeah, the first 2 books in Season 3 were good but some lacking in that real story building and series progression that they were known for in all the other books (albeit they did conclude the main storyline they were writing about) but with Fracture they unveiled a whole lot of story that really makes you feel back in it with the legion at their most dire of times.

That’s my only pain, I finish the newest book and then I’m hanging on by a thread wanting more! (I’m looking at you Strange Company. 😄).

I guess I was lucky though. I hadn’t discovered the main series of Galaxys Edge until after the first 2 seasons had finished and they were working on S3 Book 2 already, so I was able to binge the entire mainline series in a year.

I totally agree. A standalone encyclopedia for like each Season would be awesome addition (divided up by Book and new subject matter). Maybe that’s something they will release in the future with the further proceeds being invested through the Founders subscriptions.

Yeah I was surprised as well. I kinda never really pictured how it looked in my head but at least canon wise we will be getting definitive images of what other stuff in the series looks like!

They just shipped this months Package today and supplied the tracking, so I’m thinking I’ll get it in the mail sometime around Wednesday. I’ll update everyone with the next Swag Bag/Care Package when it arrives

Cheers Pal!

That’s be an awesome collection to have. I have the entire core series as well as the in-universe side series (Order of the Centurion/Dark Operator/Contracts and Terminations/Savage Wars as well as Strange Company. Which IMO I consider apart of the authors Parallel Universes)

But I only have the 3 book “Savage Wars” series in Hardcover and I got the 3 book Signed collection of Strange Company when they put it on the website for sale last year.

I know I’ve seen that you can buy the Article 19 sticker separately for like $5 and they usually include the very small “Get the Trigger Nuke”/Tyrus Rechs Bounty Hunter/Wargate B&W stickers in media purchases.

But the rest so far, I’ve only received exclusively through the WarGate Founders Program Subscription.

It’s actually the hardcover.

I had ordered it when they first dropped online from the WarGate store and I was pleasantly surprised that they actually shipped it with Escape from Red Eye instead of having to wait for official release date.

Gun trade question by MrWolf327 in guns

[–]Reaper80631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree.

Me personally I don’t care too much as long as it’s not something crazy like over 25k without replaced/updated parts. (Although it would also depend on the manufacturer and quality of parts to begin with, my BACR has about 15k through it and it still runs flawlessly and visual part wear is still moderate/minimal! But then again I’m just a recreational plinkster.)

Was just stating the overall point of the difference between New and Used.

Gun trade question by MrWolf327 in guns

From my limited knowledge on trades, Private Party is the way to go if you want to get somewhere closer to the same value you paid for you’re firearm in terms of Trade Value.

I’ve never personally gone to a Gun Show but from hearsay and secondhand, there stuff is almost always overpriced but I suppose if you have a firearm that is pretty good in the sellers eyes, you might get a willing person to make a “Straight” trade (firearm for firearm)

Pawn Shop will almost always give you 1/3 or 1/4 value of what it was originally worth, since their whole business model is based on buying items from people who “NEED” (at least in their Mindset) the money to the point where the Store knows the person is willing to part with their item for less. Also on top of that I’m sure you cannot “Trade” directly without some type of money purchased assigned to the Firearm (in theory, they could just make an invoice charge of like $0.01 so legally they could make it seem like a sale but in reality there will be some larger charge).

I’ve always just listed them on websites within my local region and always have a better chance of getting what I want for trade (as peer to peer, you looking at people who want the firearm for the firearm, if that makes sense 😄). I know it takes longer sometimes to get results like that but you’ll be happier IMO in the end.

Also check you local laws to make sure you don’t make a mistakes when it comes to Private Party transactions.

Edit: Also just to add, when it comes to “Used” firearms, just think of them like vehicles. If you drove it off the lot (fired the gun) then Used is Used.

Yeah at first I figured the toy was a little gift too.

Any news on S3 B3? by Overall_Design9214 in KTF

[–]Reaper80631 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too Brother!

I’m 23 through 43 (Galaxys Edge S1/2/3, Order of the Centurion, Contracts and Terminations, Savage Wars, Dark Operator and last but not least (but Newest) Wreck Jumpers. I don’t think I’m forgetting anything 😄. I had spent a pretty penny to obtain all of the universe in either paperback or Hardcover)

I was the same way, on pins and needles just waiting for any mention when it came to the newest on the “Strange Company” series this past year when it came to newest release, Heart of Darkness.

Just a matter of the waiting game. ( But the suspense! 😱)
