Paranoia |
Welcome to “Gaming News from Neoscream”. This is my
weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs, some card games and computer
games.
“Gaming News”
First off is the new version Paranoia news. The
KickStarter has now finished and they have made £217,517 with 2,747 backers.
Over the last couple of days they managed to unlock: Yellow Clearance Black Box
Blues; and a third adventure was added to Ultraviolet. There were no Stretch
Goals left.
Now for the Wireless Power Board Game Terrain and
Miniature Lighting KickStarter. Sadly they could not get it funded.
Next is the
Mantic news. The KickStarter has now
finished and they have made $366,547 with 4,380 backers. Over the
last couple of days they managed to unlock: An Orc War Drum team was added to the
Orc Mega-Starter Army; three Ogre Berserker Braves was added to the Ogre
Mega-Starter Army; three Abyssal Molochs were added to the Forces of the Abyss;
two Goblin Warmachines were added to the Goblin Mega-Starter Army; a double
sided pad for creating textured bases from Basius as an adding; twenty Salamanders,
three Forest Shamblers, twenty Naiads; one Druid and one Greater Earth
Elemental as part of a new Forces of Nature Starter set; forty Salamanders, six
Forest Shamblers, forty Naiads, two Druids and two Greater Earth Elemental as
part of a new Forces of Nature Mega-Starter set; one Greater Obsidian Golem was
added to the Abyssal Dwarf Mega-Starter Army; set of four wound markers was
added to “Living Legend” pledge level; Ronaldo the Bard was added to was added
to “Living Legend” pledge level; Abyssal Fiend as an add-on.
Sadly there
was a goal at $370k that was never made. It was a Centaur Hero that would have
been added to the Forces of Nature Mega-Starter set. However knowing Mantic it
will be unlocked during the Pledge Manager.
On other
Mantic News, wave one of DreadBall Xtreme has started shipping. However it will
JUST be the box game (maybe extra based on the box game content). Wave two will
hopefully ship in January with a new Season 4 line-up and some of the
third-party add-ons. Yes that is right, they relieved via Beasts of War
Weekenders and NOT KickStarter that they have revised what team are in what
season. Season four will be Brokkrs, Rebs, Sphyr and Hobgoblins. All but
Hobgoblins were meant to be Season Five and the Hobgoblins were meant to be
Season Six. Will this affect the teams that backer were thinking they are
getting? I do not know and hope not. ALSO this means that there will now be a
THRID wave.
Now for the Stonehaven Miniatures news. Shipment of
the Coloured Pop-Up Miniature Terrain Kits has been delayed due to weather.
Next is the Ninja Division news. With Robotech RPG
Tactics, containers 6 to 7 have arrived and the have be busy shipping. USA and
Canada have all been shipped and European should be shipping by the end of this
week to their European centre. It will take at least three to five weeks to
ship and at least one week to ship from the centre to the backers.
Now for the
Kingdom Death news. For an update on the state of the web store, they just now
have People of the Sun, Pinups of Death - Hard Plastic Collection and Pinup
White Speaker in stock after the Black Friday sells.
Next is the Dust: Operation Babylon news. The Pledge Manager
will end this weekend, however they have started shipping to everywhere apart
from US, Austria and New Zeeland.
Now for the Crooked Dice Games news. Five Chronal
Commandoes from the Ministry of Time were just released this month.
Lastly is the Cool Mini or Not news. With Arcadia Quest
I have missed an update last week say that the EU stuff should start December
the 2nd, however there is no news that it has started. Also the AU
stuff should start shipping next week.
