GMT Games Plains Indian Wars SEALED
Item Description DESCRIPTION The Great Plains in the latter half of the 19th century was a cultural battleground. The Native way of life was under siege by an avalanche of invaders seeking land and progress. Plains Indian Wars reduces this monumental and catastrophic series of conflicts to its basic elements: A settler surge via long snaking wagon trains, the building of the Transcontinental Railroad, east and west, and the cavalry sent to protect them all. At the same time, Plains Indian Wars seeks to offer the Native-American player the opportunity to unite earlier, hold their own and perhaps even prevent European-American success. Plains Indian Wars can be played by 1-4 players, but is best played as a two-player game. Game play averages 60-90 minutes. The Plains Indian Wars Map board centers on the Great American Plains between the Mississippi River in the east and the Rockies in the west, the Canadian border in the north and Mexican border in the south. The Northern and Southern Enemies are each defending 5 purple regions, The NPT and SPT are defending 12 regions each. Separating the NPT and SPT is the planned route for the Transcontinental Railroad. US Completion (linking the two lines) ends the game and earns the US player a bonus. The Indian player earns a bonus if this is prevented. North and south of the rail line are historic wagon train routes. The US player earns points for each wagon cube that completes its journey. The Indian player earns points for preventing this. All factions may retreat into or enter from Mexico, Canada, the Rockies or the Mississippi, although those cubes retreating into the Rockies go directly to Sacramento and must exit from there and those retreating into the Mississippi go directly to St. Louis and must also exit from there. Also, US movement west out of the Rockies is dependent on successfully building a rail line through the Rockies – not a simple task! On opposite sides of the Map board are found: faction deck boxes, faction cube reserve boxes, a casualty box, a victory point schedule and a victory point track. Both sides earn VPs during the game. The US player earns them for getting Wagon cubes into the Rockies. The Indian player earns them for capturing Wagon cubes. Most VPs are earned at the end of the game: One point per side for each region controlled and a bonus for either completing or preventing the completion of the railroad. Faction turn order is random. Faction discs are drawn, one at a time from the draw bag and placed on the map in the order they are drawn. This is key, as players never know when workers will be completing a section of track or when wagon will escape (or enter into) a trap, but they will know what factions they no longer have to worry about that turn. Each major faction holds a hand of three cards. The 60 cards included represent a selection of leaders and events connected with the Plains Wars. There are two types of cards: War Party/Engagement/Migration cards tell players how many cubes may be drawn from the reserve box and placed in respective home areas and how far the cubes may move.  Text cards allow for special circumstances and may act as reaction or endurance cards. There is only one play immediately card reflecting George Armstrong Custer’s hubris - its play could be positive for the Cavalry player but more often than not ends in disaster. Combat? Combat is harsh and frequent. When opposing factions occupy the same region, players start rolling their faction’s personalized dice. Each weapon symbol rolled is a hit which removes a cube. Each blank result is a miss which allows a cube of that faction   the opportunity to retreat from battle. Settlers have little firepower but a near endless number of cubes. The NPT and SPT enjoy better firepower increased further when they join forces. Cavalry enjoys the best firepower but has the fewest cubes in the game. When both sides roll a treaty symbol, the stronger force relocates the weaker force. If both sides have an equal force, the battle continues. I have had a deep and abiding interest in Native American culture ever since reading Dee Brown’s Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee in high school. During the Plains Wars, massacres and cruelty occurred on both sides, The Sand Creek Massacre and Custer’s Last Stand are well-known examples. Unfortunately, the journalistic adage, “If it bleeds, it leads,” is true of our American history. Sensational Conflict, victory and progress are what kids grow up learning, but there is always so much more behind and leading up to the infamous incidents we emphasize. The Plains Warriors showed immense courage and tenacity defending their homes and their land. The settlers, the soldiers and the rail workers who sought to wrest it from them were no less courageous.  Make no doubt! Plains Indian Wars is fun. It is fast and it is exciting. As a teacher though, I make no bones about wanting this game to open doors to further learning.  So when you open the box I hope it opens your mind and whoever you play … may the dice be with you!

About Us
PBM Express USA has been in the business of putting smiles on people's faces for many years now. We specialize in statues and figurines based on popular videogames like Zelda, SuperMario, Sonic, Dark Souls and many others. We also have a large range of figures and toys based on the popular Manga series from the 70s  Grendizer (Goldorak) and MazingerZ. And finally we carry a large selection of popular and hard-to-find boardgames.
We guarantee 100% satisfaction, If you are not happy with your purchase we offer free returns. All our products are 100% genuine, licensed and purchased from the manufacturer directly. No fakes. Certificates of authenticity are always included if they are part of the statue. Please also read the thousands of positive feedbacks and reviews left by our customers, many of which are repeat customers.
We ship 99% of the time within 24 hours. In many cases we allow free local pickups. However, other than a boardgaming store, we do not have physical stores, but rather work with 3rd party fulfillment centers, that do allow pickups for statues. If you are in the Central Florida region we can arrange for you to pick up boardgames locally.
Payment
When you buy an item from us, payment is due immediately. Ebay does not allow for 'payment plans' or 'split payments' (yet)
That said, we can wait a few days if that helps, but more than 3-4 days is not possible.
If you are looking for credit the only option right now that I am aware of is a payment plan offered by Paypal (depending on your credit also) or your credit card itself.
Shipping
We pride ourselves on our fast shipping times, usually 24 hours (1 working day) after you place your order. Tracking is updated in your Pricetronic purchase order automatically, so you can follow your item on its journey to you. If you do not see movement of your item within 2 days please let us know right away and we'll investigate.
Domestically we use USPS, UPS or Fedex at our discretion. USPS is a Priority Service and Fedex and UPS are normally Ground services, although you can opt to upgrade those to Priority or Express services. To see the shipping cost to your location click on 'see details' in the listing.
If you have a PO Box, you can only use USPS. UPS and Fedex do not deliver to PO Boxes. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPMENTS ONLY: I HAVE DECIDED TO SHIP EXCLUSIVELY WITH THE GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAM (GSP) FROM NOW ON. THIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL PREPAY ANY AND ALL DUTIES UPON CHECKOUT WHEN YOU BUY THE ITEM AND THERE WILL BE NO MORE SURPRISES. As an alternative to this what seems to work for a lot of international buyers is the use of a freight forwarder, such as Planet Express, Parcel Monkey, Aramex or MyUS. There are many such companies in the USA. We would ship to the local drop point (domestic) of your freight forwarder and they would handle the international part of it. Depending on the item  you can choose a drop point close to our warehouse in Wisconsin (zip 53177), Long Beach, CA (zip 90810) or Clermont, FL (zip 34711). In those cases the domestic cost of the shipment would be very low. Also you can clear the item through custom's yourself. If you are interested in this please contact the freight forwarder of your choice and open an account with them. They will provide you with a US shipping address for all your purchases as well as shipping rates. Please send us an email if you need to know the weight and dimensions of an item Useful links: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/5-reliable-parcel-forward_b_7134628 https://www.viabox.com/
https://www.shipito.com/en/ What is the status of my shipment? You can track each individual item on Pricetronic.com. Go to 'My Pricetronic' and then click on 'Purchase History' and each item will list a tracking number which if you click it will show the latest known status. Can I change my address after I placed the order? Because of Pricetronic regulalations I can only ship it to the address you used during check out. If that is not a good address I will have to cancel the transaction and refund the money and you will have to repurchase the item again and use the correct address this time. I am not home when Fedex/UPS normally delivers the items. Can you change the address or redirect it to a Fedex store? The Fedex/UPS account I use belongs to Ebay so I cannot change anything relating to the shipments. After 3 failed delivery attempts Fedex/UPS will hold the item in its local hub for up to 10 days before returning it. You can call the local hub and make arrangements to pick up the item during that period. Do you offer combined shipping on multiple items? Yes we do combine shipping. Just add all items to your cart and click 'Request Total from Seller' and "Comnmit to Buy". This does not always work on the Pricetronic mobile app. In case it does not work there, please try it on a pc. After I receive the request I will send an invoice with the total combined shipping charges. Then you can pay. If you do not like the deal I will cancel it without a problem. This is the most efficient way to do it. As for statues due to their size I cannot combine those in 1 package. The box would also be too big and heavy and it would actually increase the risk of damage as these large boxes are difficult to handle. Thanks for your understanding. My item is lost in transit, can you help? Rarely items get lost, but if it takes too long shoot us a message. Also check with your neighbors or front office to see if the item was accidentally delivered there. We can put in an inquiry with the shipper to see if they can locate the item. All items are covered 100% against loss and damage in transit. I would like to pick up my item, what do I do?
Other than the gaming store in Clermont, we do not have physical stores. We work with 3rd party warehouses in Long Beach, CA and Sturtevant, WI and they do allow pickups. Depending on the item I can arrage for pickups there. And all boardgames (only!) can be picked up in Clermont, FL. If you are interested in a Local Pickup and the item does not have this option available in the shipping section of the listing, let me know and I will fix it.
After the purchase you will be directed to the warehouse where you will have to identify yourself with your driver license and you will be handed the statue. You CANNOT inspect it. These are a 3rd party independent warehouses so all they do is they store my inventory and ship it out. They are not part of my company. If there are any issues you will have to communicate with me.
After the purchase please provide the 6-digit code Pricetronic provides you and I will give you instructions on how to collect the item from the warehouse.
General FAQ What is the edition number of the statue?
The statues are stored in a 3rd party warehouse in Long Beach, CA or Sturtevant, WI. I am located in Florida. So unfortunately I cannot give you the edition # until after the statue ships. Are the statues genuine?
We are an official dealer of First4Figures and all other companies we deal with. You can check their website. All our statues come directly from F4F by seacontainer. They are factory sealed and have the Certificate of Authenticity. So no worries the statues are genuine. Please also read my feedback. Can I have a picture of the actual statue or the shipping box?
The statues are stored in a 3rd party warehouse in Long Beach, CA or Sturtevant, WI. I am located in Florida. So unfortunately I cannot make pictures of it. Also 99% of the statues I sell are factory sealed straight from F4F China and I would not open the box to take pictures. I can provide the edition number after it ships. Please check our feedback also if you are on the fence. We have a lot of happy customers. Can you inspect the statue?
No the statues are factory sealed and we do not open the box to inspect them or take pictures. Is your item new?
Yes unless clearly stated otherwise, all items are brand new and in factory sealed packaging.
Returns
