Nice idea, but no. Saw a Rick Wakeman and Brian May concert over the weekend and had a vision of a long haired, robed alchemist standing surrounded by a ring of instruments and benches.

Waiting in anticipation now.....having missed the pre-launch window I have no idea what to expect from pledges......just so long as there is a good pick n'mix stall I am happy.

if I recall correctly about $60ish USD will get you a fair amount but if you want to deck out a full on Heroquest set, be prepared to drop ~$120

EDIT: Many pieces were 3-6 gold. Gold clocks in at I think just over a buck per coin. This set is definitely not as affordable as I was hoping.

Did all the Facebook sharey-likey stuff. I also posted a link with your banner at The Fraternity of Shadows, a Ravenloft site. Glad to help out, glad to cash in. :mrgreen:

After checking the books prototype on the Facebook page, I was thinking a parchment with text and Morcar's "M" seal would be nice to place as a goal for a Quest. Find it, and the next parchment text is read to the Heroes. Possibly his monogram could also/instead be added to a large book to signify Loretome.

Has a dwarven forge been added to the wishlist by anybody yet? I imagine so, but I wanna cover all the bases (or more accurately, all the expansions.) A narrow bridge spanning a chasm would be fun. Also, a rotating room like in RotWL could make for a cool final stretch reward.

I'm hoping there is an eye towards an armoury type of thing.. which could include a forge.. but more importantly a weapon rack. It seems like it should be simple enough.

Aye, me too :P may be a good thing as during this delay, exactly 100 102 more people have subscribed to the newsletter to be informed about the release, soooo every cloud, has a silver lining :P

Yea if you want to swap out the doors, the three core pledges have massive customization now :D Its close to a bit HQ themed pick-n Mix ;)

Yea the classic dungeon dweller pledge, which will swap everything in a HQ box out for the resin scenery, will be in at $109, with all add - ons at 1- 3 gold each aside from the big stair cases and fountains.

If you already have some of the doors, best bet may be to grab a dungeon critter pledge for $56 which you can swap doors for more gold to bag all the furniture with.

Im sincere when i say that the prices are the lowest that are economically possible. For a comparison, consider the same $110 (..+$75 INT shipping) got people this handful of drybrushed Dwarven forge scenery and no free stretch goals! https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/001 ... 1395103898 :P

Yup yup, weapons rack is in the pipeline, attached WIP concept ;)

Thanks Daedalus :D You'ra saint sir!

A "M" or a "Z" perhaps :P Will be detailing those books with traditional putty sculpting, so can certainly add some bits like that.

Heh havent had that suggestion yet! But the other sculptor John did mention he wanted to make an anvil, so are on the right track :P

I got no use for the Dwarven Forge, baby, but I sure do got a use for you. I have a brilliant idea for new pieces for this--stretch goals--if you will. So, you know how the Elf Quest Pack comes with four little dropped bundles of equipment to indicate where it has been dropped post-lycanthropy? I also use those to indicate a dead Hero's dropped stuff for the benefit of the other players. I think a set of those four would be simply outstanding. Also, the magical mirror from that same set would be charming.

Thantos, I like the weapon rack! The pricing thing is what it is. If I were to price this stuff out from Thormarillion or wherever, it would be more.. you're right there. I imagine retail will be higher still, so yeah, I will be putting as much as I can into this. I was just saying that those specific dollars might not go as far as I had hoped. None of that changes the fact that I'm stoked about this though :D

I can't decide what I'm going to do...
The Dungeon Critter and 35 extra gold or just 70 gold... either way I'm more than likely in for $100+.
