I’m really hoping this doesn’t disappoint. If it’s even close to a full remake with the only changes being not using GW proprietary property then it will be an immediate purchase. Fingers crossed.

If this was a an actual release and not a mobile game, wouldn't pre-orders be already a go?

Apparently it’s been confirmed via Twitter that it will be an actual board game. Still some confusion over whether it will be crowdfunded, or more or less ready to go.
I guess we’ll find out more on Tuesday :bites-lip:

Cool. Well, I guess I timed my HQ dice perfectly, they should be here by Friday of next week. I don't know about the rest of you guys & gals, but I'm going to pick up like 3 or 4 copies of this game if its really a boardgame.

Okay, more like 8 copies.

I’m completely on the fence. Very intrigued, but equally cautious. If it’s true to the original, I’ll buy in, but won’t be impressed if it just bears the name and little else.
Including the Witch Lord is a good sign I suppose. I’ve never taken part in a Kickstarter, but would get involved for this if it’s done right.

Hopefully with Hasbro involved it will be just like the original because none of their other boardgames has changed at all over the past 50 years other than art updates.

I would very much like it to be a physical board game but I live in Brazil and it would end up costing 2.5x the dollar amount after taxes and / or import tax. So I would be a little happier with an online version.

But ... who am I kidding... I want a physical game!

Yeah but if they can keep the miniature scale the same as the originals, it would be worth picking up a copy to integrate new mini's in your collection.
