I think it’s probably ok if folks vent a little bit and get it out of their system before putting the kibosh on things.

This isn’t Facebook. I’m not telling folks not to post things. I just think the thread title should be updated.

Re: Heroscape: Age of Annihilation is here! Back it on Hasla

I got it out of my system a while ago when I saw how it was being mismanaged and likely wasn’t going to fund.

Not sure what folks were expecting to hear today. Surprise we already made it and it’ll be on your local Dollar General shelves on December 1?

No offense to anyone who’s upset, completely reasonable response, but expecting them to not do what they said they would do is not reasonable.

Yeah, they've been really clear with us. They didn't dangle hope out and then slap us today - they were clear and we've had a month of being able to prepare ourselves emotionally for this as it's become clear it wouldn't fund. The reaction today in some corners is fairly immature

I appreciated the bluntness of the "nothing" comment they made and hope that folks take them seriously and allow themselves to move on.

The designs for this new edition were incredible, and I am so thankful for all the effort you put into bringing HeroScape back. We are so appreciative for all the long hours and extra hours after full work days at your other jobs you all put in. Hoping something comes of the re-launch after all, but regardless I wanted to express my deepest gratitude to all of you
Like a few other people, I wanted to echo this sentiment. Whatever complaints can be lodged against the campaign (and I've expressed my share of them here and on Discord), the actual unit mechanics and designs were excellent - the Nemesis War Brood and Frostclaw Paladins looked especially fun to pilot, as did Xenithrax - and I am grateful there was ever even a chance (albeit ultimately, and sadly, a fleeting one) of Heroscape getting new official content.

Speaking personally, the Age of Annihilation announcement caused me to get back into the game. The minute I heard about it, I took out much of my old Heroscape stuff and started playing around with it; merely putting a map together again reminded me very quickly as to why I fell in love with this game to begin with. Shortly afterwards, I started purchasing 3D prints of the various Wave 9 figures (none of which I was able to purchase at the time) from Trexy3D and painting them, initially as practice for the Age of Annihilation figures, but later to just fill out the remainder of my classic Heroscape collection; from there, I started looking into C3V material. Despite the failure of the AoA campaign, I think it's apparent its very announcement brought a lot of people who drifted away from the game, for one reason or another, back into the fold, and that's something I'm quite glad about. Even if we never get new official content, I fully believe Heroscape's fanbase will keep the game alive for a long time to come.

Heaven help the admins over there. I don't blame them for doing the best they can.

Me too. And I don't think they would have taken that tone without input from the higher ups. Though that's just a guess. As always, I have no inside knowledge.

The designs of the Age of Annihilation, and their ACES compatibility with VC

Re: Heroscape: Age of Annihilation is here! Back it on Hasla

Can we get a new thread??? I really think we should have a new thread for aftermath.

until then...

I'm 100% sure Craig stuck his neck out.
Craig = 5 stars
War Council = 5 stars
Avalon Hill = 5 stars for effort damn they did some awesomeness
(doesn't matter) planning = 2 stars
(doesn't matter) presentation = 3 stars
(doesn't matter) marketing = 2 star
Hasbro = 1 star

Bottom line. License it to someone else. A different company would succeed.
