Welcome everybody to this week’s “Gaming News from Neoscream” post. This is my weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs and some card games, as well as my miniatures painting and upcoming local events.

Then will be a Sneak Peek event at Wargames Workshop MK this Sunday. Please check the "CFVanguard and WeißSchwarz M.K." Facebook group for more information and how to sign up for it.

Next is the Wyrd Games news. This Monday's preview was of the renders of the Fermenter River Monk minions for Ten Thunders.

Now for the Cool Mini or Not news. The Arcadia Quest Inferno KickStarter is still going externally well. In fact they have beaten what the first KickStarter did and now they are on uncharted teruatry . Since the last post they have managed to unlock: The KickStarter exclusive heroes of Master Pim and the good version of Vexia from Pets; the expansion Chaos Dragon with the KickStarter exclusive hero Nina as an add-on; the KickStarter exclusive pets Bones and Gadget; a second Pet Pack add-on that contains three new pets; the Whole Lotta Lava KickStarter exclusive expansion which includes rules, two Hellcat monsters, Ignos monster and the previously unlock Fallen Agel; the heroes Anvil and Valma as an add-on; the KickStarter exclusive Poison Dragon; the heroes Yona and Kuruk as an add-on; and a Plastic Token Pack with Exploration, Door, Portal and Spawn tokens.

The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: A Game Tile and tokens to go with the Poison Dragon at $1,075k; and cards and a box to finish off the KickStarter exclusive  Poison Dragon expansion at $870.
This Kickstarter will be ended Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Let us see which they can unlock between now and then.
On other Cool Mini or Not news, Zombicide Black Plague has started shipping to backers.

Next is the Hawk Wargame news. Their KickStarter for Dropfleet Commander has just finished making £629,222 with 3,918 backers. Since last week they have managed to unlock: UCMF Admiral, UCM Faction, Scourge Faction, PHR Faction, Shaltari Faction and a KickStarter exclusive DFC t-shirts as an add-ons; digital screensaver; Civilian Cruise Liner was added to the Captain level pledge and above; Eden Prime Map Pack as an add-on; Resin Deluxe Cluster pack as an add-on; Dropfleet Commander poster as an add-on; a free Frigate Sprue of each race was added to all level pledges at; a UCM Dog Tag will be added to all level pledges; Resin Scourge Scenery set as an add-on; a KickStarter exclusive 2-Up PHR Cruiser as an add-on; a Hawk pin was added to the Captain level pledge and above; and a set of Activation Card was added to the Captain level pledge and above.

Now for the KickStarter "Warbears and Stagriders, Fantasy Wargames Miniatures" news. The KickStarter has finished now and they have managed to make £7,015 with 209 backer. Sadly they did not unlocked the Sorceress on a tiger.

Next is the Demigods news. The resin figures for Evolution (their second KickStarter) and rules parts for the Demigods game are almost done, which means Demigods Evolution will ship soon. However the plastics for Rising (their first KickStarter) has been delayed and will most likely ship July 2016 or later now. This is due to a bunch (or a lot) of people who only backed Demigods Rising complaining about being treated as "Second class citizens" as they were not getting the new sculpts from Evolution. WTF! The Evolution backers paid at least twice the cost for a hell of a lot less figures so they could have the new sculpts and to get their figures in resin. Anyway they have decided to change the plastic to the new sculpts and sadly this has pushed should take them to July 2016 and now the Demigods Evolution backers will get their stuff before the Demigods Rising ones. This massive delay and the fact that Evolution will ship before Rising has really pissed me off. I am a backer of Rising and I never upgraded to Evolution. I hated that fact that it would cost me a ton more for less, but I had no problems with getting the old stuff. It was my decision not to upgrade. It is nice to get the new sculpts, but I would FAR prefer to get then before or at least when the Evolution stuff ships, not over half a year after the Evolution.

Now for the Mechabrick news. They have started their Upgrade crowd funding, however it is on Indiegogo instead of KickStarters. It contains upgraded kits and painted parts. This has unlocked so far: Funded; and two Printed Nanofigs added too all pledge levels.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: A Shield of Fire will be added to all XL pledge levels at $4k; a Golden Sword will be added to all XL pledge levels at $6k; a Neon Black Printed Shield will be added to all  pledge levels at an revealed amount; and a Neon Black Print Mech will be added to all  XL pledge levels at an revealed amount.

Next is the Ninja Division news. With their Ninja All-Starts KickStarter, all pledges are pack and are now being packed into containers to ship to fulfilment centres.

Now for the Modiphius news. The Pledge Manager for the Infinity RPG is basically ready and they are sending invites to backers. I have not checked my e-mail yet to see if I got it. 

Next is the Mantic news. Wave two of Kings of War is expected to ship on the 14th of December.

Now for the Vesper-On news. I received my box game this week. I brief look how ever it is being saved until Christmas However thee game and figures are much bigger than I expected. Also the gbox game has now hit stores.

Next is the Modiphius news. Sadly wave two of the Thunderbirds Co-Operative Board Game has been delayed by six weeks. However they have revealed that they have added a bonus item to the Hood expansion, Lady Penelope's home Creighton-Ward Manor.

Now for the Dragon Tide news. This KickStarter has started shipping to backers.

Next is the Guild Ball news. They have just released two more Season Two figures, the Brewer's Guild player Mash and the Mortician's Guild player Bonesaw.
Also for Black Friday they are selling a bunch of resins, most are the alternate Leaders from KickStarter.

Now for the Kingdom Death news. Three years ago today Kingdom Death Monster hit KickStarter which made over $2m. Now the game has been sent to backers and now they are just waiting for the expansions which they have no clue on when that will ship. So I dealt it will ship this year now.
They have finally added to the website the build instructions for the figures from Kingdom Death Monster and added a Resources section with FAQ and Beta rules for the Challenge Scenarios.
Oh and because its Black Friday the store was restocked with a ton of deals a a price change. So much it is hard to list them all individually. They have added all (or most) of the armour kits apart from Unarmoured. They are $50, however for today only they are $25. All the pin-ups and promos from the KickStarter, Dice Stone Face bases and a ton of plastic and resin figures related to Monster. Please check out their store for all the stuff in detail. Oh and the price change is that the RRP of Monster is now $400 instead of the $500 I thought it was.

Next is the Frostgrave news. Last week saw the release of the "Thaw of the Lich Lord" expansion and stuff for it.

Next here are other Black Friday sales happening in the gaming world that I know of. First Battle Foam are running sales till the 30th between 15% and 60% off a range of their products.

Hero Forge

Warlord Games are running several deals. Two major ones I like to point out are until 30th, buy any three vehicles from a selected list and get 20% off them. Also 50% of Plastic Sprues.
Battlefront are having a 33% off all of their Flames Of War range until December the 1st.
Hero Forge is doing a 20% off on their deal on their custom tabletop Miniatures if you enter the code "BLACKFRIDAY" in the checkout. I have been thing about testing this out for sometime now, especially since I started to look into Frostgrave. I have orders three figures today with this deal. Lets see how they come up look.

This last one might not be for the faint hearted. The one gaming company that no one expected to join the Black Friday deals has joined. Games Workshop. WTF. However it is only bundle deals ranging from £95 to £485 than reduced prices on individual items.
Also there was a bit of news from last week did not report about, however to my knowledge then it was just a rumour, but it was confirmed. Their Specialist Game section is returning with most if not all the old game. Necromunda and Blood Ball being two of the major games that will be returning. However they will be apart of Forge World instead of Games Workship. Please not this is still in the early planning so will take at least a year or two to see anything and we do not know how the old games will return (compete news, updated rules, reprint of the old rule, free PDFs, box game, hight cost hardback like 30k).

Welcome everybody to this week’s “Gaming News from Neoscream” post. This is my weekly gaming news post for miniature games, RPGs and some card games, as well as my miniatures painting and upcoming local events.

“Blog News”

After seeing another blogging last Saturday during her spare time I wanted to retry writing the blogs of Blogger than on Word processing software than copy and paste to Blogger. This added a crap ton of HTML code that made formatting the posts a nightmare. I did try doing it in Blogger back when I first got a HTC Flyer years ago, however there was a dating issue I did not like. The post would be dated the date I started to write it instead of the date I posted it. Luckily it looks like this error over time has been fix and I will be retrying again. However I will still need to do images on a computer than on my phone as the Blogger app still does not allow me to place them where I wait. Let's hope it will work this time.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the HeroClix news. We got previews of: Three different versions of Wonder Woman from DC Superman/Wonder Woman.

Now for the Bushiroad news. With the WeißSchwarz side, today sees the release of the Symphogear GX Booster Set in Japanese. Also next Friday will be the release of the KanColle 2nd Fleet Booster Set in English.
With the Cardfight Vanguard side, today sees the release of G Comic Booster 1: Vanguard and Deletor in English.

Aiomus, Lord of Time 

Next is the Ninja Division news. Ninja All-Stars is currently being packed up in China and should be on the water headed towards fulfilment centres soon.

Now for the Wyrd Games news. This week they revealed their Black Friday promotional figures. First the special edition models available during Black Friday sales are Nightmare Coryphee for $35, Kaeris's crew in translucent orange for $50, Jakob Lynch's crew in translucent purple for $45, Kaeris's crew in dayglow orange for $50 and Jakob Lynch's crew in dayglow purple for $45. If you buy $150 or more of stuff from their web store during Black Friday you will get an alternative version Firestarter and an alternative version Francisco. If you buy $300 or more of stuff from their web store during Black Friday you will also get an alternative version Barbaros and Dr. Dufresne who counts as McMourning. Next they have a ton of stuff on early release during the sale (sorry I am not listing them) which includes a 10th Anniversary of Maliflux, the twelve soul stone Outcast Mercenary called Aionus Lord of Time. Their Black Friday sales will last for one week.

All the original sculpts from the Inferno boxset

Next was the Cool Mini or Not news. The Arcadia Quest Inferno KickStarter started on Monday and it has been doing well. There is only one backer level which is called "Hell of a Pledge" and it comes with the new game, the KickStarter exclusive hero King David III and all on add-on stretch goals.

They have managed to unlock so far: The expansion was funded; a KickStarter exclusive Dice Bag; an extra sculpt for both the Harpy and Demoness minions; the KickStarter exclusive heroes Lucas, Annika, Lord Tyron, Tigris, Annabelle, Tao, Dris, Gabriel, Britney (a hero version of the Demoness), Thornwood, Johnny and Sarya; twenty sculpted wound tokens; twenty sculpted death tokens; twenty sculpted plastic coins tokens; four sculpted guild tokens for each of the four new guilds; one attack die four each of the new guilds; two defence dice; thirty sculpted damnation tokens; The Fall of Arcadia campaign download book using stuff from the original game and Inferno; the Frost Dragon box expansion with the KickStarter exclusive hero Hilda as a add-on; Hellfire Token pack; classic Arcadia Quest stuff as add-ons; metal coin add-ons; one attack die four each of the new guilds and two standard defence dice; and the Heroes Mamba and Rosh as an add-on.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: KickStarter exclusive hero and monster version of Kragor at $600k.

As I had backed the original KickStarter and have been playing game (and enjoying it), I have backed this one.

Now for the Hawk Wargame news. Their KickStarter for Dropfleet Commander still continuous and since last week they have managed to unlock: One free PHR Frigate Sprue that makes up four Frigates was added to the Captain level pledge and above and one free PHR Cruiser Sprue that makes up one cruiser was added to all level pledges.
Stretch Goals that still going as I post this were: An Activation Card Pack as an add-on at £370k; deluxe rulebook upgrade at $390k; UCMF Admiral t-shirt as an add-on at £400; digital screensaver at £415k; Civilian Cruise Liner will be added to the Captain level pledge and above at £425k; Eden Prime Map Pack as an add-on at £440k; Resin Deluxe Cluster pack as an add-on at £460k; Dropfleet Commander poster as an add-on at £475k; a free Frigate Sprue of each race will be added to all level pledges at £500k; and a UCM Dog Tag will be added to all level pledges at 3k backers.

Next is the Mantic news. They are close to finishing shipping Dungeon Saga. In fact I received the two figures I backed it for. Tyrant King Blaine and Venetia Beriassor the Human Cleric.

Also this week I backed the KickStarter "Warbear
s and Stagriders, Fantasy Wargames Miniatures". It is a small KickStarter for two mounted figures with several other figures as infant add-on. The figures are a Princess on a stag and a Roman like generic guy on an armoured bear. Since starting they have funded the two figures and a third figures. The third figure a female archer on a bear.

The next stretch goal is a Sorceress on a tiger at £7.5k.
I have backed it for the female archer on a bear as it reminds me of Laura Bailey's character from Critical Role, Vex'ahlia (Vex). Now that is an idea for a paint scheme for this figure.
