GTM HeroScape AoA Previews!

[chas]

Toa Matoro,

I'll be in a quandary about whether to buy the Master Set or wait for Faction Boxes, if they don't tell us their future plans for figure production! But who wants to wait another year?


cmgames,

Ha Ha! What's that from?

I'm reminded of the Smallville production mantra:

"No flights; no tights!"

[IAmBatman]

It's from The Incredibles. Great movie.

[ThrasherDarkrai]

The Incredibles is arguably the best superhero movie ever made. If you somehow haven't watched it yet, definitely rectify that.

[Killometer]

Late to the party, but I am so hyped to see Evil Raelin on the front of the MS box! Of all the AoA units she was the one I was most excited for.

I've seen it; its just been a while.

Would your concern be that faction boxes would repeat master set content? That seems like it would be an odd release strategy. While I obviously speak with 0 knowledge of the future, I would wonder if faction boxes would just be a set of figures pertaining to a single faction (I could see the 6-figure ironclad collective being a set for instance, as well as perhaps 6 random yet-unreleased clockwork combine figures as well)

Certainly understand the trepidation though. Hopefully some light will be shed on that today

Aside from that, are you sure they said nothing until next summer? I could have sworn quarter 4 of this year was mentioned for a second wave... now I need to see if I can track down that info

You're right, they did say Quarter 4. But since they also said they'd have a big presence at GenCon, I just assumed that would be their issue date, since it would make sense. The sooner the better, of course.

Chances are I'll get one of everything as it all comes out, especially since I host all of our monthly games. Although I may skip the Terrain Pack if its only foliage (which I suspect will work just like the old Palm Trees and Bushes).

For some more last minute purchasing thoughts and discussion before we see the Renegade show later today, see here in our old AOA section; on which more later after the reveals:

The current Renegade Con placeholder on youtube, which has the photos of both new game boxes, says its will be live at 5:00 PM, rather than 2:00 PM. Did they move the time?

[Dartheyegouger]

It's 5pm Eastern, 2pm Pacific.

[chas]

Dang; thanks!

[Toa Matoro]

I made the same, disappointing mistake in my rendering of the time

East Coast bias rears its ugly head.
