Re: HeroScape is coming back!

I'm looking at the information my friend receives for his store from his distributor (not sure if I can give out that specific information), for RETAILERS.

From that distributor right now,...

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Interesting side note on retailer orders. Right now, only the unpainted versions are available for pre-order (at least in the distributor that my friend uses).

They do have a huge "launch...

Nonsense. We've already seen that. Oberon became Irene. :p

That was excellent work, GaryLASQ. So much better than a blurry shelf photo... :)

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

So what I hear you all saying is... Taelord needs to cost less?

Re: HeroScape is coming back!

Well.

Well, well, well.

Coming out of retirement yet again to post: cautiously optimistic.

As a GI Joe fan, I've loved some of what Renegade has done with that IP (the card game) and...

Re: AoA:Vanguard Campaign Postmortem

I backed it and encouraged others to do the same. I would do so again.

I still love Heroscape. Always will.

I'm happy for the gang that enjoys C3V and so on, but it's not for me. No offense at...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

People griping that Hasbro is this giant mega-billion corporation and doing a bad job of marketing need to remember: this is not Hasbro as a whole. This is Avalon Hill, a (very) small division of...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Here's the thing, though... I AM familiar with Haslab. I followed the GI Joe campaigns very closely.

Hasbro did this with those campaigns: Released a ton of relevant information and some stretch...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Yep. Same experience I had on a prominent FB board game group. It got nasty enough that the admin had to step in and tell people to back off.

I just don't understand the mindset of angrily...

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

It's the absolute FIRST and most repeated response I've seen in other places (even more than "Unpainted? Forget this!").

I did the comparison multiple times on FB and BGG. Here's the way I wrote...

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

Interesting. It seems to me that we are steadily moving towards funding within the first few weeks.[/QUOTE]

You are far more optimistic than I!

I'm just going by what I've observed on other...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Sadly, they have stated flat-out that this will not happen.

If the campaign fails, everything is shut down. No Heroscape for the foreseeable future.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

No, you're not. At this point, it's highly unlikely to get funded, barring some major changes in either interest or the campaign itself (and I don't think I've ever seen Hasbro change a campaign in...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

Neither. It's just too much.

Oh wait. One person compared it to Marvel Zombies.... ignoring the terrain, of course.

Also "the art is horrid" and Hasbro is stupid for not putting it on...

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion

I posted a plea on one of the biggest Facebook board game groups... and it's getting savaged by response after response of "they're not painted!" and "it costs too much!"

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

Just FYI - Regardless of when you pledge, you won't be charged until November 15. (And if it doesn't reach the goal, you won't be charged at all.)

No. I don't have any kind of membership. I got free shipping.

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

SPARKLY water, at that!

Skyknight raised another good point about the free shipping! You can't find a Kickstarter game with free shipping. That's just not done.

When you break down the $250 and...

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

I did some comparison shopping recently. I decided not to back the "reload" of Rivet Wars, another miniature game of which I have the original. The core pledge on the Kickstarter was $130. With that,...

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

I hear ya. It's not exactly burning up the charts here.

The GI Joe one a couple months ago shot past the funding goal in less than a day. This one is barely moving. :(

Re: Heroscape 2nd Edition is here!

I backed ASAP. Everything looks awesome. Everyone in my house is excited. (Well, except my wife, I suppose. Something about money...)
