Just making sure that anyone who wanted the base game or any of the expansions should get over to GMT's website before March 15th and pre-order a P500 copy of what you want. They have secured funding to be able to fill all orders, regardless of the final P500 number. Don't miss out or you could be paying significantly more at retail. From the GMT Updates:
Commands and Colors Reprints: We're closing in on the deadline for sending these to the printer on March 15, 2023, and we're going to print quantities based on the orders we have on that date. So, one last time, here are the details and pricing information for this one-time printing. If you want copies, please get your orders in before March 15! - Gene
We are committed to the long-term viability of the
Commands & Colors Napoleonics series, despite the massive rise we've seen of late in the cost of wooden blocks. To make the games more affordable, we will in the future consolidate the first five volumes into two volumes to cut duplication of blocks in the four army volumes, but also reduce the number of charts, counters, and terrain tiles needed. The same will be done with volumes 6 and 7 (
C&C Napoleonics Generals, Marshals & Tacticians and
C&C Napoleonics – The Epic Battles).Before we take this step, in fairness to those who have started to collect the first seven volumes, or who want to collect the first seven volumes, we have obtained limited outside financing in order to re-issue a limited run of these first seven volumes. Retail prices on all will be raised. P500 prices for the two expansions that were already on P500 will remain unchanged. The level of the orders received will determine how many copies of each volume are reprinted.

As of March 15th, 2023, all seven volumes will be sent to the printer, so time is of the essence.
Two other C&C games already on P500 will also be sent to the printer on March 15. The retail prices have been raised, but the P500 prices remain unchanged. The same conditions apply. The more P500 orders received, the greater the number reprinted. The two games are:
- C&C Samurai Battles P500 59 Retail 95
- C&C Medieval base game P500 55 Retail 90
