Heroquest remake by Hasbro - The BIG discussion thread

[Leathaface79]

Right you are...

Due to COVID related circumstances beyond our control, shipping may be delayed. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience!

Still, this doesn't stop them giving info on HeroQuest, even if it would imply that it's being delayed like everything else.

Correct, the E-mail was sent in September saying Late October they would "Start" shipping. Hasbro added the Banner sometime between Sept. 30th and Oct. 5th using the Wayback Machine. But if there was going to be a delay in "Starting" to ship the pledges, then they should have said something in a follow up e-mail or at PulseCon with the same statement on the Banner.

Dear HeroQuest Backer,

DUE TO COVID RELATED CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL, SHIPPING MAY BE DELAYED. WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE AND APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE!

Sincerely,

HeroQuest Team

New email:

Greetings HeroQuest Backers,

Thank you for your patience as we work to get you more definitive answers to your shipping questions. As many of you may already know, the shipping industry is dealing with unprecedented issues and concrete information is difficult to share as the situation can quickly change. We targeted this campaign to deliver in the Fall of 2021 and we have worked hard to meet that deadline.

Now for the good news!

For Mythic tier backers, the last of the shipments have arrived to our warehouse and we have begun printing shipping labels! That means you may be seeing a tracking number generated, but please don’t be alarmed if you don’t see movement right away. As soon as your incredible chest of quests officially ships, you will receive a shipping confirmation email from us.

We hope you are as excited as we are to get HeroQuest to the table soon, and we’d love to see that excitement. The team launched an Instagram page for @AvalonHillGames, so feel free to share your heroic adventures.

Game on!

Ya slid in before me by a couple seconds.

Hrm..I wonder if this means Mythic Tier backers will get theirs a little sooner than Heroic Tier.

But the important thing is: It's happening!

I'd wager that they probably have more mythic backers so they want to prioritize them. Hopfully it's not a long wait for our heroic friends.

My Pulse account order does say "In Progress" now.

If you look on twitter, the big boxes are clearly marked "HEROQUEST MYTHIC", so I think Mythic Tier backers will get theirs first. Unless there is another insanely large pile of boxes that say "HEROQUEST HEROIC" off camera.

Blayze beat me to it... that's good news at least.

Fulfillment Status Unfulfilled

(checked it just now on hasbropulse)

If you zoom in, can you see order #1061437 ? J/k... (maybe)

Can anyone with instagram capture some of those images and post them here? I see they are talking about pictures of "A selection of dangerous and deadly spells from the HeroQuest Game System:
Lightning Bolt
Firestorm
Cloud of Chaos "

[Leathaface79]

I don't have Instagram or I would.

If you zoom in on the boxes, they say Southwest Airlines from LAX to Boston (Avalon Hill HQ is in Rhode Island), so I'm sure they were delayed by the Cargo Ship queue in LA Harbor.

Here are all of the HeroQuest related images on the AvalonHillGames instagram. They are links, didn't want to embed them and run the risk of getting the Inn in trouble.
