Title: TEC seems to be a success!

These sold out faster than we anticipated. More are in production and should be here mid October.

While obviously Rob did not do print runs the size of past sets (which was the whole point of this new way of printing), it's very encouraging to see the new set has exceeded sales expectations.  :)

I agree, and actually the fact that the set was released in printings, and the 1st printing had so many errors in it, I think really was a great thing because it added a much-needed dimension of rarity, and therefore interest, to those 1st printing cards (especially the ones whose special abilities were changed).

This is just on top of the TEC cards already being really good! The clay brigade seems to be a creative and solid new brigade that should be competitive right away, and many support cards for other brigades/themes are very helpful, too. (ex: Abandonment, and the fruit of the Spirit cards)

In the future, as people have said in the past, I think that intentionally having rarity as a big factor in packs adds to the overall excitement of a set, and just trickles down from increased sales to increased trading, more fun deck building, and more interest in playing.

The note I posted has been removed from the Cactus website, I wonder if Rob received a shipment earlier than expected???
