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 Mantic news. Let us look at what
the Dungeon Master level looked like at the end of last week’s post: the
Dungeon Saga game (I am not relisting original contain but new will be listed
below); extra set of all the monster scalps; the Adventurer’s Companion which
now includes rules for the Undead and the Orc and Goblin ranges from Kings of
War; an exclusive signed art print; Kickstarter Exclusive Dungeon Journal;
resin KickStarter Exclusive hero Keldan Aury’mtor; two Armoured Zombies; two
Dwarf Revenants; the villain character Grund Hammerhand the Undead Dwarf King
with an extra scenario and a Bonus Tile; two Ghosts; Three Zombie Trolls; the
villain character Hoggar the Undead Zombie Troll Shaman with an extra scenario
and a Bonus Tile; four new plastic heroes called Ally McSween the Female
Halfling Thief, Ibrahim the Male Human Paladin, Kapoka the Dryad Druid
Shapeshifter and Venetia Beriassor the Female Human Cleric; three exclusive
plastic heroes called Logan “The Lofty” Mialsson the Halfling Fighter, “Hordin
Goldstone and Gnasher” and Tyrant King Blaine; rules and cards for Solo (Heroes
or Necromancer) and fully Co-Op play; the Ebil Dead booster pack; a Goblin
Archer and two Goblin Warriors; an Orc Morax; an Orcling Swarm; and a Mawbeast.
The Stretch Goals that they managed to unlock since
the last post was: A set of 3D Dungeon Furniture in plastic was added to the
Dungeon Master Pledge level and as an add-on; two Orc Greatax and two Orc
Skulks added to The Warlord of Galahir expansion pack; an Orc Greatax, an Orc
Skulks and an extra The Warlord of Galahir scenario added to the Dungeon Master
Pledge level; the Dwarf King’s Hold Dead Rising booster pack as an add-on and
rules for them added to the Adventurer’s Companion; Dwarf King’s Hold Green
Menace booster pack as an add-on and rules for them added to the Adventurer’s
Companion; Dwarf King’s Hold Ancient Grudge booster pack as an add-on and rules
for them added to the Adventurer’s Companion; Dungeon bases as add-ons; Green
Rage resin set that contains one of each monster (not including the villain) as
an add-on; a resin version of Tyrant King Blaine as an add-on; the villain
Thrundak “Skull-splitter” Orc Barbarian added to The Warlord of Galahir
expansion pack; and the hero Hratth Flamespitter Salamander Fighter has be
added to the Dungeon Master pledge level.
Stretch Goal that was still going when I posted this
post were: The hero Arianya the Naiad Daemonhunter will be added to the Dungeon
Master pledge level at $475k; and the six Dwarf King’s Hold Ancient Grudge
scenario will be update and added to the Kickstarter Exclusive Dungeon Journal
at 3,500 backers. Also it looks like there might be a new expansion pack (maybe
at $500k) that will be daemon/chaos/abyss based.
They will be adding two new pledge levels tomorrow,
both will include everything in the Dungeon Master level. There is “Create your
own character” and “Painted Dungeon Master”.
With personal Mantic news I have received my
Deadzone stuff. I am guessing I have about a month until the Mar Attack stuff
now. However I just double checked the digital cards Mantic sent to backers and
found that none of the new stuff that were added to the second survey (like the
Rebs Swordspawn) have rules yet. So they are useless at this current point of
time.
Next is the Privateer Press news. Next Wednesday
will see the release of the Mercenary Cephalyx Warcaster Exulon Thexus, the
Mercenary Cephalyx Heavy Monstrosity set (can be built into ever Subduer,
Warden or Wrecker version, the Mercenary Unit Cephalyx Mind Bender with Drudges
and the Legion Light Warbeast Nephilim Bloodseer.
Now for the Stonehaven Miniatures. They will be
starting another KickStarter next week. They are going back to their miniatures
and will be doing Half-Orc Adventures sets. In the past they have done Dwarfs,
Gnomes and Elves.
Next is the Ninja Division news. Eric the Battletech
Engineer on YouTube has manage to get his hands on the starter set for Robotech
RPG Tactic. There has been by the look of thinks a couple of changes to the
set. First as a bonus you will be getting a sixth Battloid due to spue layout.
Sweet. However, they never applied paint to the counters or the blast template
like they promised. The cards and are too fine and weak. It was recommended to
self-laminate them to extend their life. I
am hoping that these are just prototypes Eric received and the cards and blast
template in retail/backers copies will be a ton better.
Also at Gen Con they were showing off a bunch of
prototypes of the wave two stuff like the MKII Monster.
Now for the Battle System news. Their Sci-Fi terrain
set has all shipped to backers now and later today their Fantasy Dungeon range
will hit KickStarter later today. 8PM GMT.
Lastly there is the Mekton news. Due to the over size format
of the digital copy of the rule. The whole thing needs to be redone in a smaller
size formate that can be turned into a PDF and painted into a a physical book.
This may mean that the rules book might be delayed, but they are hoping that
they can redesign things in time.
