Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
That and even in it's heyday, Scape seems to have always had someone in a position of authority with no idea how to market/distribute/advertise this game and ultimately helped contribute to it's 'official' demise.

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
They are pretty much still distributing most of their products the same way they did with HeroScape, its a wonder they make any money at all.

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
Couldn’t our community anoint a few Digital Sculptors/3D Modelers to create new 3D-printable sculpts for the community? They could work hand-in-hand with VC (sometimes sculpt could inspire design, sometimes other way around), be funded through Patreon or something similar, and it doesn’t seem to me like this would violate Hasbro copyrights for the game, right? Has there been any discussion of such a thing?

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
Here’s my next installment of “I can’t help it but have hope regardless of where all the signs point and I have to take any ‘news’ with a half of a third of a grain of salt.”
Latest episode from Board Game Insiders. They mentioned how the campaign failed and its back in the vault. Both Ignacy and Stephen are still surprised at this considering all the work put in and $$ spent. Stephen still seems to think that something will happen with HeroScape, though he made sure to say he has no inside info, but that he will shake the tree at Hasbro with the contacts he has and report back. Not that I expect anything to come of it. 1/2 of 1/3 of a grain of salt… but it’s still something. ![]() -insert signature here- |

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
Heirloom,
If you look on the thread that suggests usable minis in the new AOA thread in the Customs section, you'll see that a 3D sculptor is already doing just that; producing "knockoffs" which are not exactly the same for each of the AOA minis. They look pretty good too. |

If the reboot is dead, I wonder what is to stop them from just releasing the units as STL files - they have released the cards.... I guess this goes against the aim of making money and making their IP public but...... they shared the cards, I don't get it.... |

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
1. No "if." It's 1000% dead
2. Nothing's stopping them and nothing's making them. They have no motivation to. If they wanted to release the product just to release it, they wouldn't have set it up as a "prove it" crowdfunder where we had to foot the production costs for them in advance. They're not going to sink a penny into giving us free product at this point. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
Since I am very interested in the 20 scenarios in 2 campaigns they had announced, I mentioned to CVN on his thread that at the end of Scape they did release a number of then unpublished D&D scenarios to us. I thought, maybe just that much. But Craig hasn't posted since the debacle. Ah, well...

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
So the TimeStrike Kickstarter launched yesterday. Looking at the campaign page, available tiers, and funding goal, is this what you would wish the Haslab campaign had been?
Interestingly enough, the tier with the most backers is the one with uncoloured miniatures and more terrain (TimeStrike + SOURCE Deluxe). I imagine most backers see this tier as having the most value. |

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem
It's certainly miles better so far. I'm wait and see on some more interesting stretch goals, though.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.
