Question, which retailer did you order yours from? I'm still waiting on my Gamestop order... ("in progress... awaiting product availability")

Thank you so much for the unboxing!

Now we finally know how the new cards deck is called: "Knight Skills"

Quite cool also the knights' introductory card, but again no detailed rules are described about how these new characters may be introduced in the game. I guess they can replace any other Hero but no official explanation is included anywhere, isn't it? Could those knights be added to the Heroes party without replacing another hero?

About the armour special ability of these knights, I think is a strong one in case they wear plate mail. Borin's Armour is now too less valued in my opinion.


Its less valued, but it's still good for the other heros. This just means platemail will be bought by someone without penalty.


As far as the players, I'm sure you could add a 5th. The app just has you choose between. I should check if mine came.

Well you are only going to ever likely have 1 Knight in play and the Barbarian with Talisman of the North and Borins Armor....dude is still king of the game
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

So the "gamestop exclusive" isn't shipped from gamestop for some random other placed has. Neat.

Might have better luck with a guy selling them out of the trunk of his car... j/k (maybe)

On reddit someone was claiming stores were only ordering 8 copies at a time, if that's true, no wonder they were so backed up and sold out.

I think I saw the same post; it wasn't that they were ordering eight at a time, it was that their supplier cut them down from 150 to eight.

Ah, that's still crappy... :(

I see the weapon/shield images have unique artwork... (same for male and female versions though), does it have the standard Equipment back on the other side?

That was Zatu in UK and was where mine evaporated too... Going to be very annoyed if this does turn out to be some kind of ultra exclusive nonsense now.
