Shrapnel Games Unveils Its Newly Upgraded e-Store!

For Immediate Release

Hampstead, NC, 13 December 2005

With only twelve shopping days left until Christmas (thirteen, if you're the cheapskate that shops for presents at the corner gas station on the way to visit the family) Shrapnel Games is pleased to announce that your shopping worries are over! Simply stop by the newly retooled Gamers Front, the official Shrapnel Games' e-Store and your one-stop virtual shop to strategy gaming nirvana!

So what's new with the Gamers Front you might ask? Well, if you drop in by visiting it at www.GamersFront.com, the first thing you may notice is the newly redesigned look. Sleek, easy to navigate, with all the information you'll want to know at your fingertips. More details on the games you know and love, with screenshots and demos a click away. If the interface was a texture it would be rich velvet, and believe us, if society would allow it you'd want to drape yourself in it. But the new Gamers Front, while good looking, has much more to offer beneath the hood than graceful lines and tight handling.

New membership options allow you to earn credit towards future purchases when you shop through Reward and Bonus Points programs. Reward Points are awarded based on each full dollar you spend on the store, with each dollar spent equaling one Reward Point, and for every 75 points earned you receive one dollar in discounts. The more you end up spending, the more you can save!

Bonus Points work a little different though the net result, saving you money, is the same. Bonus Points have a higher ratio of earning, with ten Bonus Points equaling one dollar in discounts. Bonus Points must be converted to a gift certificate to be used, but the gift certificate can be to yourself. Bonus Points are also awarded in various fashions, such as purchasing a particular game for that month. They can also be awarded in a variety of other ways. Currently, anyone who signs up for the Premium Membership (it should be noted that your old Gamers Front account will not carry over, so old members will need to re-sign up) earns Bonus Points totaling to a five dollar gift certificate, which again, can be used by yourself or given to someone else. Hurry though, as this offer only lasts through December!

Other new features of the new Gamers Front include the ability to purchase gift certificates in whole dollar amounts, which can then either be sent via email or good ol' fashioned snail mail. Easier payments through Paypal, and of course the Gamers Front still features the ability to pay with a wide variety of credit cards, including Discover and American Express.

Another truly cool feature of the new store is an integrated customer support base. Previously to access the customer support features you had to create a separate login from your store account. Obviously this was somewhat awkward. Now your one registered account takes care of both ordering new games and any customer support that you may need!

We're excited with the upgrade, and we think you will be too, so please stop by the new Gamers Front today! Remember, if you register in December you'll receive Bonus Points that will get you a $5.00 gift certificate, applicable immediately. Apply it towards one of our hot new releases, like Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space, Land of Legends, or Prussia's Glory. You can even earn more Bonus Points this month by purchasing Coliseum, The War Engine, or the Charles S. Roberts award-winning Horse and Musket: Great Battles of the Eighteenth Century.
