I think I've foinally arrived: Wizard's Attic is actually carrying my game at
http://www.wizards-attic.com/SeraphimGuard.HTML
and tell me they've made some sales.
Now the question is -- will Alliance having picked up the book mean it will show up on game shelves all over the country? Or will the retailers balk?

RE: Finally getting into the retail chain
Hi Michael,
Congratulations on getting with Wizards Attic. Yup, your first orders from Alliance are probably (not guaranteed, but probably) a good indicator that you'll be on lots of shelves, everywhere, for a little while. Then after that, who knows? I suggest learning a bit more about which retailers carry your game, if possible, and to develop good relations with them. One good way to do that is to set up a retailer locator on your site, and have them contact you. It's free advertising for them, after all.
Best,
Ron
