Over the years I have learned that the blame game sux. Learn from past mistakes and move on. I think Ernie ed. al. Worked their tails off, only to end up tailless failures, albeit not in legacy. St. Louis is a great town. When I was there they had a vigorous game community and the annual arch-con. I wait with great anticipation the ability to buy more Tripods.

I have very exciting news to share with everyone. Yesterday we received confirmation that the sale of all Robot Peanut inventory and IP's (which includes All Quiet on the Martian Front) has become offical.

I'm curious what other IP's were also picked up and what may become of them?
Fanticide? That was a fun game.
American Uncivil War? I just picked that up when it looked like AD's doors were closing. I still haven't played it yet, but I'm looking forward to giving it a go.
Anything else?

We picked up all of the IP's and all molds (of all kinds) associated with them. Right now we are solely focused on All Quiet. Better to do one thing correctly than five things poorly. That is my motto ....

I definitely agree.
I was just curious if there is interest in bringing back the other games in the future and what all of the purchased IP's were exactly.

I think it would be foolish of me to say they are never coming back but right now that is not in the short term plans.

Can you say what the other IP's are?
I was never sure which IP's were AD's and which were just games that they were selling for others.
I'm pretty sure that AQotMF, Fanticide, and American Uncivil War was AD's...but the also sold SAGA and some others that I was never sure exactly who owned. Again, this is just my curiosity talking...

Just saving the game and ip at this time is splendid news.... Many times in the past, games have died without the chance of rebirth. I am happy that the game was saved with the models themselves. It is hard to get someone interested in the game to tell them "well, yes it's fun but you can't get the models anymore" I wish both of you a smooth and profitable transition! Respectfully, Gunny

Agreed. I have so many "dead games" on my shelves the I love, but hard to bring new players in when they can't get toys of their own and have to just play with mine.
