My lord - every time I think about creating a formal statement about the tariffs and what they mean for Phase Shift, everything changes a moment later!! The reality is, no one can currently truly plan in this volatile environment - we need to let the dust settle in Washington and see where the cards really fall. 

Ultimately, we benefit from the fact that we haven't really started production yet. Those who have boats on the water are the ones who are in real trouble at the moment, and I feel for them immensely. Suffice to say, when the time comes we'll have a much better idea what's going on and what it will mean for us all. We have some strong options here at Phase Shift, because we are also fully established in the UK and Germany...  we don't NEED to import everything into the US, other than for retail distribution. We COULD ship backer packages from China or Germany - would be slightly more, but at the rate the tariffs are going right now it might not actually be more than the import fees would be to the US.

Bottom line is this is all way to early to know for certain right now. We will monitor closely and make the best and fairest decisions we can as the weeks and months roll on. Because WW is such a small game, the impact would be minimal no matter what. Those who have large box games have much more to worry about at the moment.

Will keep you all posted!
