Transparency Statement - This channel is sponsored by Stonemaier Games. This isn’t a review channel though. Jamey has made it VERY clear that Stonemaier Games doesn't pay for reviews. I am not a reviewer. I am passionate about Stonemaier Games though, and they sponsor me so that this fan-focused channel can exist. I create this content on my own, and while Jamey may occasionally watch these videos, he doesn’t review any content in advance. There is also no guidance in terms of what games or topics I should cover. I want to be as fully transparent as I can, so if you have any further questions, please feel free to post them in the comments.

I have been a casual fan of a wide variety of Stonemaier games for a while now, but it was Expeditions, and how it was promoted and presented to the world, that motivated me to join the Stonemaier Champions program and preorder Expeditions. I absolutely cannot wait for this game!

[@TheMillShow]

Welcome to the club, Jon. I hope you enjoy Expeditions and what is most likely to be "Codename Hive" near the end of the year.

So looking forward to seeing you at Geekway, Dusty! (And Carol and Molly of course!) Geekway is just tables and tables and tables. It's amazing.

[@TheMillShow]

I am really looking forward to a convention where I'm not working most of the day. I've not often got much played at GenCon so I'm excited (and nervous) about Geekway. Looking forward to seeing you and other friendly faces, Susannah!

Its a bummer that I can t be there to meet you all and play some games together! Would have loved to purchase TheMill T shirt. Have fun y’all, have a great one!❤

[@TheMillShow]

No shirts yet, but perhaps someday. :) It would be good to see you too, Gheorghe.

I noticed the first printing of the deluxe “Ironclad” version of Expeditions already sold out, so I suspect that pre-order demand is pretty good!

[@TheMillShow]

Yeah, I think there were some people who maybe missed the news and then it being present at GAMA probably drew some attention. Can you imagine how out of stock they would have been if they just picked a number and decided to print something not too large and trying to go not too small. I love the way they launched this game. It's a good game too. I'm hoping to come home with a copy from Geekway. We'll see.
