CIG Invites Longtime Backers to First Squadron 42 Hands-On — Manchester, October 9–11, 2026

Invitation emails from CIG began reaching selected longtime backers in July 2026, inviting "those who Held the Line" to an exclusive three-day event at the Manchester studio on October 9–11, 2026 — including the first hands-on experience with Squadron 42, a studio tour, and time with the development team. Travel and accommodation are at attendees' own expense. CIG has not published a public comm-link about the event; the details come from the invitation emails recipients have shared, and our playtest-event page tracks everything known so far.
