Okay, the bad news is that the printer has had a supply problem, delaying the printing of Alexander vs Persia, Wuxing, and Hill 218/Sector 219 until the end of December. Chad is of course upset about this, but there's not much that can be done at this point.
To make it up to all the Kickstarter supporters, he's going to include a bonus Mercenary hoplite unit to all supporters. This will be one of the units from the proposed Greek City-States faction. That unit will still be in the Greek City-States if/when it gets published, but one unit would be produced early. This will be a Mercenary unit, usable by any faction.
