Gaming News from Neoscream: 23rd April 2016

Welcome everyone to the “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.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Weiß Schwarz, this week sees the release of the "Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works volume 2" Booster Set and Meister Set in English and "Idolmaster Cinderella Girls 2nd Season" Booster set in Japanese. Also on Friday next week we will see the release of the Power Up set for Idol Master in Japanese.
With Cardfight Vanguard, this sees the release of the second G Start Deck "Knight of the Sun" in both English and Japanese.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: Leatherhead from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; "Sabertooth and Wild Child" and Proteus from Marvel The Uncanny X-Men; and Surfing Batman, Shark and Hawkman conversation exclusive figures.

Now for the Ninja Division news. Their KickStarter, "Rail Raiders Infinite, has ended. They managed to make $339,724 with 4,649 backers. Since the last post they managed to unlock: The "Old Tyme Religion" expansion as an add-on; a new pledge level called "Raiders" that includes everything from "Space Cowboy" plus both expansions; the raider Rhinestone was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; Rail Raiders Infinite card sleeves was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Canton Cobb was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; two Lawbot Preachers and three Lawbot Pallbearers was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Typhoon was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; a second sculpt for the Lawbot Pallbearers; ten more Poker Dice and rules for the spin-off game that uses the dice called "Huckleberry's Riverboat Roll" was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; the raider Chuy was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; a Collector's Dealer Chip will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above; and the Law Bot Lock Box was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level and above.
All of the stretch goals finished.

Next is the Privateer Press news. I have more information on the Battlegroups due to online preorders. First off I was wrong about a couple of things. The Warjacks are the same sculpts and are in their plastic resin but coloured in the faction's base colour. Also not all the warjacks are the same as the old Battlegroups. I made this mistake thinking the Firefly was a new Charger.
Also previews of several state cards have been revealed.

Now for the Cryptozoic news. The Ghostbusters The Board Game 2 KickStarter is still going on, however it is still going slow. Since the last post they managed to unlock: The ghost Bug Eye was added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: The Ghostbuster Kylie Griffin will be added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above at $600k.

Next is the Mantic news. Pre-orders for Deadzone second edition is now up. Sadly there is no word if it has officially started to ship to backers yet.

Now for the Odyssey: Argonauts news. The KickStarter has finished now and they have managed to make £6,039 with 88 backers. Since last time they have managed to unlock: A Wrist Mounted Weapons add-on set; a Head and Shoulder plate add-on set; a Head and Shoulder add-on set; a Wrist Blades and Shield add-on set; the Odyssey Scrap-Book(let) as an add-on; the "Argonauts Assemble" pledge level that comes with eight Argonauts, Jason and two of each add-on set; "The Last Stand" KickStarter and Show exclusive damaged Argonaut figure as an add-on; and the Odyssey Scrap-Book(let) was added to "We Three Kings" pledge level and above.
Sadly the stretch goals that they did not make were: The Final add-on set at £70k.

Next is the "Fragged Empire RPG: Protagonist Archive and Miniatures news. Since the last post they have managed to unlock: All the miniatures will now come with a hand signed premium quality art cards.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: Expanded art budget at $50k; expanded 'Prominent NPCs' section by fifteen pages at $55k; a Male Kaltoran miniature at $60k; GM Screens at $65k; and expanded Science, Technology, Psionics and Factions sections by ten pages at $70k. Please note that this is in Australian dollars, not USA dollars.

Now for a new KickStarter that has hit the internet like a storm, Dark Souls: The Board Game. It is a strategically challenging, deeply immersive combat exploration game for one to four players board game based on the computer game Dark Souls, which Kingdom Death Monster gets compared to all the time. It is being done by the British company Steamforged Games LTD, the people who made Guild Ball. There was a demo of the game at Salute which I missed out on, however a friend of mine did play it and it was quite interesting and really deadly like Kingdom Death Monster. It was funded in just three minutes, made $1m in just under twenty-four hours and 1m backers and £1m in two days. Sadly I have a strong feeling from past game that is the $1m and games based on other properties, this huge successes will be its undoing. There is really only one pledge level, Souls Pledge. This comes with the box game and all stretch goals unless noted otherwise. There is also a retail level too (I do not normally cover retail version).
Since starting they have managed to unlock: Funded; a Pyromancer Player Character; five Dancer Behaviour Cards; a Cleric Player Character; five Executioner Behaviour Cards; a Sorcerer Player Character; a Thief Player Character; five Legendary Weapon Treasure Cards; a Mercenary Player Character; five Lothric Encounter Cards; the Pursuer Boss Model; five Anor Londo Encounter Cards; a Deprived Player Character; ten Item Treasure Cards; three Firebomb Hollows figures; three Dancer Heat Up Cards; five Gravestone 3D terrain tokens; three Executioner Damaged Cards; three Silver Knight Lancers figures; the Sir Alonne Boss Model; four Barrel 3D terrain tokens; the Bonfire 3D terrain token; four Treasure Chest 3D terrain tokens; four Large Barrel 3D terrain tokens; Spin Dials for Core Game Mini Bosses; the Smelter Demon Boss Model; five Smelter Demon Behaviour Cards; three Alonne Sword Knight figures; give Legendary Weapon Treasure Cards; three Ironclad Soldiers figures; five Spell Equipment Cards; five Iron Keep Encounter Cards; three Alonne Katana Bow Knights figures; the Gaping Dragon expansion as an add-on; the Black Dragon Kalameet expansion as an add-on; the Guardian Dragon expansion as an add-on; five Invader AI Cards; three Smelter Demon Damaged Cards; Trap Cards; Spin Dials for the Pursuer, Sir Alonne and Smelter Demon; two Mimics figures; two Crystal Lizards; the Last Giant boss expansion for retailers; the Manus, Father of the Abyss boss expansion for retailers; the Four Kings boss expansion as an add-on; the Black Iron set player character; five The Pursuer Behaviour Cards; five Winged Knight Behaviour Cards; the Adventurer set player character; and five Gargoyle Behaviour Cards.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: Executioner's Chariot boss expansion for retailers 200 Retail Backers; and an un-revealed armour set player character at £1.2m.
I have only back this at £1 to get the updates. However if I have the money, room and time for another game, I would be backing this at "Souls Pledge".

Lastly there is the Stonehaven Miniatures news. All the sculpting for their Halfling Adventurers Miniatures KickStarter are now completed. Casting based on the past will take about a month and shipping should be starting mid to late May. Backers all receive a survey next week.

Gaming News from Neoscream: 15th April 2016

Welcome everyone to the “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.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Weiß Schwarz, next Friday will see the release of the "Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works volume 2" Booster Set and Meister Set in English and "Idolmaster Cinderella Girls 2nd Season" Booster set in Japanese.
With Cardfight Vanguard, next Friday will see the release of the second G Start Deck "Knight of the Sun" in both English and Japanese. To my knowledge this will be the first time something is released in both English and Japanese at the same time. I think the new starter sets are a English thing and as the game in Japanese, a Japanese version was rushed out (as a cheap Trial deck then a Starter deck). Shame they cannot to world wide releases for all the sets.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: All four Turtles from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles starter set; and Magneto from Marvel The Uncanny X-Men.

Now for the Ninja Division news. Their new KickStarter, Rail Raiders Infinite, is still going. Since the last post they managed to unlock: Double the number of Lawbots and the downloadable scenario "Shadows of the Star Express" was added to the Space Cowboy pledge; the raider El 'Cola was be added to the Space Cowboy pledge; a second sculpt for the Lawbot Cavalries; the raider Jr Dallas was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level; a set of plastic Double Dollar tokens were added to the Space Cowboy pledge level; the Old Tyme Religion expansion as an add-on; and two Lawbot Cavalry Captains and three Lawbot Cavalry Soldiers will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level.

As I post this the stretch goals that are still going are: The raider Rhinestone will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level at $165k; Rail Raiders Infinite card sleeves will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level at $180k; and the raider Canton Cobb will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge level at $200k.
It will be finishing on next Friday so let us see what they can unlock between now and then.
On other Ninja Division news, we got images of the SDF-1, Armored Valkyrie and YF-4 prototypes which they had at AdeptiCon for wave two of RoboTech RPG Tactics.

Next is the Privateer Press news. Their have revealed that they have been working on a third edition of both Warmachine and Hordes. The new edition of their games will be released at their event, "Lock and Loaded" that happens in June and also general release to retail stores late June early July. This will be a massive update to the games which will change a lot the mechanics. There will be used stat cards all the units and the way that Focus and Fury works is changing also the infants Tucson battlegroups is increasing as soon as I've always wanted to see large battlegroups. Units will be roughly doubling in points costs and the didcound Warlocks and Warlocks have to their battlegroup should be increasing from about six points to about twenty-one points. In theory this will basically cover all the Warjacks/Warbeasts in a Battlegroup box box set so that a battle group box will be zero points. The rules are meant to be easier for new players to get into. In the initial wave of releases we should be getting new rulebooks for both games, new Battlegroups for all or just the main factions and new card decks which will contain new unit cards that will replace the current cards like what they did when second edition was released.

Looking at an image of the new Cygnar Battlegroup box, the new Battlegroup box sets by the look of things will contain the same Warjacks/Warbeasts as the old ones but in new dynamic sculpts, an all new Warcaster/Warlock (confirmed for all Battlegroups), what looks like a cut down rulebook, what looks like a Faction Listing book, a paper play mate, dice, tokens, a ruler and terrain. Also by the look of things the figures will be in coloured hard plastic, that is coloured to the factions prime colour.

Now for the IDW games news. The pledge manager for their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles board game is now online.

Next is the Cryptozoic news. The Ghostbusters The Board Game 2 has hit KickStarter and it was funded in two hours. They are two main pledge levels. The first being "Ghostbuster" which comes with just the game. The Second was "Proton Slinger" which comes with the game in a deluxe box, the Tully expansions and Glow in the Dark Ecton dice.
Since it started they have managed to unlock: The game was funded; the Lady Liberty vehicle was added to the Ghostbuster pledge level and above; the ghosts Brain Matter, Soar Throat and X-Cop were added to the Ghostbuster pledge level and above; the ghost The Grindel was added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above; the Ghostbusters Garrett Miller and Roland Jackson was added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above; and the Roylance Guide box and five new equipment cards were added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: The ghost Bug Eye will be added to the Proton Slinger pledge level and above at $550k.
I have only backed this at $1 to receive the updates.

Now for the Cool Mini or Not news. The production of the second wave of Zombicide Black Plague is finished and now they are waiting to ship the containers to the warehouses.

Next is the Mantic news. Shipment of Deadzone Infestation should be starting in the middle of next week.

Lastly there is two KickStarters I have backed that I want to advertise here. First is "Odyssey: Argonauts". This is a KickStarter to add Argonaut figures to Odyssey's range of figures and to add opinions for them. Odyssey is a range of resin Greek mythology meets sci-fi figures. At least year's Salute I brought one of their old figures that was on clearance. The figure was Cirae and was a highlight in the goods I brought at Salute. Sadly I have not painted her up yet.
There are three main pledge levels. The first being "The Argonaut" which is just one Argonaut. The second is "We Three Kings" which is three Argonauts of your choice. And the third one is "Jason and the Argonauts" which comes with four Argonauts and their new Jason of Iolcos figure.

Since it started till now they have managed to unlock: Funded; three new alternative poses with new weapons/arms; a Shoulder Plate add-on set which one was also added to the "We Three Kings" pledge level and above; and a Head and Shield add-on set which was also added to the "Jason and the Argonauts" pledge level.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: A wrist mounted weapons add-on set at £4.3k; and a Head and Shoulder plate add-on set at £4.6k.
I have backed this KickStarter at "We Three Kings" level. It will be finishing on Thursday so let us see what they can unlock between now and then.

The other KickStarter was "Fragged Empire RPG: Protagonist Archive and Miniatures". This is a expansion to the Fragged Empire role-play game. I have only backed this for a couple of the figures and not the game. From my experience role-play games on KickStarter are a total nightmare (Mekton Zero and Paranoia).
Since starting they have managed to unlock: Funded; and Expanded 'Locations' section by fifteen pages.
The stretch goals that are still going as I post this are: All the miniatures will come with a hand signed, premium quality art-card at $47.5k; expanded 'Prominent NPCs' section by fifteen pages at $55k; a Male Kaltoran miniature at $62.5k; and expanded Science, Technology, Psionics and Factions sections by ten pages at $70k. Please note that this is in Australian dollars, not USA dollars.

Gaming News from Neoscream: 8th April 2016

The Dimensional Police G-Guardian. Her other ability is:
[AUTO]:When this unit is placed on (GC), if your 
opponent's attacking unit's [Power] is 20000 or greater, 
this unit gets [Shield]+5000 until end of that battle.

Welcome everyone to the “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.

Sorry for no post last week, there was not really enough news to report on sadly.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Weiß Schwarz, today sees the release of the Power Up set for CLANNAD and the Power Up set Log Horizon in Japanese.
With Cardfight Vanguard, they have revealed a new type of unit called a G-Guardian. These are grade four 15k guard based units that live in the G-Zone (Stride deck is what I have been calling it). They can only guard and you can only use them if both players are at least grade three and you discard a heal trigger from your hand. They will be debuting in Fighter's Collection 2016 were each clan apart from Touken Ranby will get one. With the introduction of G-Guardians, the G-Zone will be doubled in size to sixteen. This will course problems with with some of my decks as they are struggling to get to eight. Well hopefully the new Fighter's Collection will help fix this problem.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: Rat King, Renet Tilley and Krang from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; and Mystique and Omega Red from Marvel The Uncanny X-Men.

Now for the Modiphius news. I have received my Thunderbirds Co-operative Board Game wave two shipment. The three expansions fit perfectly in the original box game. In fact the RPG add-on could as well if I was not using deck boxes to hold the cards in.
With their Infinity KickStarter, their have put up a Character Creation App and they have updated it too since then.

Next is the Zero Agents news. They have revealed the state cards for the Agents, Minions and one the Elite Operatives.

Now for the Ninja Division news. Their new KickStarter, Rail Raiders Infinite, has finally started. It was meant to have started on the 4th, but due to some communications problems with Kickstarter it did not start until the 6th. The game is a chibi sci-fi western board game for two to four players. Raid the Interstellar Express space-rail to earn loot, infamy, and the ire of C.O.W. and the Galactic Central Bank. In order to loot the train you will need to first dispose of the meddlesome Tinstar Lawbots, who will do everything in their power to stop your hist. Team up with other Raiders, or do what bandits do best, double-crossing them when their chips are down. Anything goes when you’re out to make a big score!
There is currently only one real pledge level which is called Space Cowboy. It was  just the game and the raider Cowpuncher Candy.
Since it started they managed to unlock: The game was funded; "The Good, the Bad and the Bot" five player expansion as an add-on; the raider Kingsman was added to the Space Cowboy pledge level; a second sculpt for the Lawbot Deputies; the raider Whistlin' Pete was added to the Space Cowboy pledge; the raider Thorne was added to the Space Cowboy pledge; and ten more Poker dice was added to the Space Cowboy pledge.
As I post this the stretch goals that are still going are: Double the number of Lawbots and the downloadable scenario "Shadows of the Star Express" will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge at $100k; the raider El 'Cola will be added to the Space Cowboy pledge at $105k; a second sculpt for the Lawbot Cavalries at $110k.
I have only backed this at $1. This does look really good. However I do own a bunch of games and still waiting for several from KickStarter so I really do not have the room or time.

“KickStarter Dates”

• Wave four of Kingdom Death Monster (December 2013), wave two of “Journey Wrath of Daemons” (July 2014), “Mekton Zero” (digital December 2013, physical March 2014), “Paranoia” (June 2015), wave two of “Shadows of Brimstone” (August 2014), “Zero Agents” (December 2015) and wave two of “Robotech RPG Tactics” (December 2013) have all been delay due to problems and currently have no dates on when these will start shipping.
• “Dragon Tide” (September 2015), “Slaughterball” (June 2015), "Dwarven Forge's City Builder Terrain System”, wave 1.5 of “Shadows of Brimstone” (August 2014) and “Yashima: Legend of the Kami Master” (July 2015) are all currently shipping.

Gaming News from Neoscream: 18th March 2016

Welcome everyone to the “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.

“Gaming News”

First off we have the Bushiroad news. With Weiß Schwarz, today sees the release of "THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS" in the form of three Trial Decks, a Booster Set and a Meister Set all in English. Next Friday will see the release of Card game Shiyoko Ultimate Starter in Japanese.
Also with Cardfight Vanguard, today sees the release of the G Legend Deck 2: The Overlord blaze "Toshiki Kai" in Japanese. Next Friday will see the release of G Trial Deck 8 "Vampire Princess of the Nether Hour" and G Booster Set 6 "Transcension of Blade and Blossom" in English. This and G Booster Set 7 are the sets that I am currently looking forward to. Six has Nova Grapplers and Seven has Dimension Police. There is a Sneak Peek for G Booster Set 6 at Wargames Workshop MK. Sadly due to working I will not be able to go.

Next is the HeroClix news. This week we got previews of: Metalhead and Casey Jones from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Now for the Privateer Press news. Their Widower's Wood is still going on. As I post this they have managed to unlock since the lost post: A new reward level called Luxury which is basically Premium with a KickStarter exclusive table top dice tray; a Boss Swamp Gobber was added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one; a KickStarter exclusive Blackhide Wrastler was added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one; and four more Club Gatormen and a KickStarter exclusive mission was added to all pledge levels. 
As I post this the stretch goals that are still going were: A Boss Small Tatzylurm will be added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one at $287k; six Tomahawk Gatormen will be added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one at $300k; a Boss Gatorman Bokor will be added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one at $312k; two more Gatormen Bokor will be added to all pledge levels at $325k; three more KickStarter exclusive missions will be added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one at $337k; and a KickStarter exclusive Swamp Horror will be added to all pledge levels apart from the Core Game one at $350k.
The KickStarter will be ending on Sunday. Let us see what they can unlock between now and then.

Next is the Cryptozoic news. Next month they are returning to KickStarter to fund Ghostbusters The Board Game 2.

Now for the Kingdom Death news. For one week only, all the expansions for Kingdom Death Monster (apart from the Lantern Festival due to not being ready and the Spidicules most likely due to the problem with the legs) are all up on their web store for one week that ends on the 21st. I have managed to pick up all three Knights. I was planning on getting the Green Knight Armour set too however I learnt that you need to get two or three more of the other expansions to use it.
Afterwards the expansions will be release normally onto the store as a general release in a slow manner.

Lastly is the Modiphius news. With their Infinity RPG they are still working on the Wave one books, however from next week they will start shipping the miniatures if backers want to pay extra for the postage. On the belowKickStarter Dates" section I have pushed wave one to April, however I do doubt that it will ship by then.
