Should be a decent weapon against Q9 and Raelin types, since you can get around screens a bit more easily than melee attack 6 types. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion
Fully agree. My experience with the Master of the universe game (2 mill), recent monsterpocolopse (1.3) and street fighter game (2 mill) - all of which had an entry point and a much much higher all in, were also all non-stop hype and stretch release.
But look at those totals, all are recognizable IP and have dedicated fans. For a 250$ pledge you are getting a very nice set of terrain here, and I'd argue all day amazing figures. I suppose we have been spoiled by KS at this point. I really, really hope to see this funded, and I believe everyone is doing what they can within the business constraints provided. No one s sitting on their thumbs or giving up with a month to go. I believe this has been a crazy rollercoaster. Heroscape is cancelled, this is horrible - maybe. Heroscape is coming back - maybe. The minis are unpainted - maybe The minis are awesome - maybe I don't like that faction, where are the historical units - maybe Drake! Solen! Raelin! - maybe - they are doing a haslab instead of retail - maybe - it will get funded right away - maybe - it didn't get funded right away - maybe - it's steadily getting funded - maybe - the funding slowed - maybe My point is there is a lot happening and if you tie your emotions to a game you are at the mercy of the world. It the end it might not fund at that will seem horrible, but then they might tweak it to be better, or you could personally find that is for the best as you need the money more. |

If it funds, that’s awesome! More scape for years to come hopefully. If it doesn’t, that’s ok. The game still exists and I can keep playing with what I have for years to come. |

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion
Yeah its not like we are talking about government policy, religion or such weighty topics. I think the criticism falls into 2 camps
1. I have honest suggestions on what I've seen other companies do and I want to help make the game a reality. This amounts to baseball fans yelling at the players and coaches or making drafting recommendations to GMs. There's not much we can do, but we want to help. Of course most of our suggestions simply won't work since we don't have all the information, similar to why coaches don't pull a pitcher just because he gets boo,d. 2. You are not making the product I want (for the price I would pay). This is pointless and entitled. People might be masquerading under the statement that what they want or the price they want it at would sell better, but again we lack the facts to understand the decisions, or simply this is the product the IP owner wants/believes in. I have no problem with either group as long as they stay civil, since people can get frustrated and want to vent. Quite frankly the numbers worry me and I want to make them higher, but I recognize this is not my campaign so all I can do is watch, pledge what I can and maybe let a few people know about it who might be interested. |

Re: Age of Annihilation - Backer Trend and Discussion
I completely agree that their are upper level decisions being made based off spreadsheets and not consumer wishes. I was just offering up some ways that this could provide more options and additional funding at minimal extra production cost to the company. Shipping logistics wouldn’t be too difficult as warehouse personnel are awesome at their jobs and the variety may actually breakup the monotony of the same box in a box, over and over again.
Still wishfully thinking in hopes to help the campaign. |

At the end of the day it’s luxury purchase and something you won’t have in your hands for a year from now. It can be hard to sit on the sidelines and hope it works with only the hope of cheaper releases later. Maybe that’s a minority. Miniatures games in general demand a level of financial commitment, but that’s part of the accessibility that Heroscape always had that’s certainly lacking here. |

Group 1 is those who backed and are generally excited and supportive about the whole thing and talk about what they like about the offering. Group 2 are those who feel the need to frequently remind the community that this is "all or nothing" and "our only chance" and imply that everyone who reads it should feel some deep personal responsibility for bringing the game back. I think Group 2 of excited backers and Group 2 of critics tend to play off of each other in a cycle of toxicity. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

As Tom Vassel's crew mentions in passing in that review video, that type of thing definitely just pushes people away.
