So the first pics from Gencon are in.

It has a board that looks the same but folds down smaller, and has more creases.

5 new minis: the four basic heroes and a dragon with a double space base. The art on the hero cards is unchanged, there is a new monster card for the dragon with stats.

2D full color monsters and doors with little stands to hold them up. Most of the furniture is flat tiles.

A new questbook, no details yet. New Zargon screen and rulebook.

Dice, Character sheets, spell cards, etc. all look the same. The box art is different from what was shown earlier.

Its $50.

Disappointed. Real game goes on sale at Amazon for $66 frequently. No way I pay $50 for this, unless something hasn't been revealed yet.

Pics of the dragon posted on Reddit

Edit: Does it say can cast ball of flame at will?

Stronger than the lame dragon from COPD but still quite weak (less BP than the barbarian...). I suposse is still a young dragon. Not sure if I like the miniature, seems like the gargoyle but "dragonized".
50 bucks is not worth for veterans, I really like the new sculpts and the dragon is ok but... 50 bucks... meh.

A dragon miniature is really easy to get from a lot of sites and companies. I dont think I´ll get it.

ABNB posted some news as well. Looks like the monsters aren't just square tiles but cutouts. Looks good!

Not a fan of the dragon. Don't like the pose or the general design, it just looks weird like an 80s cartoon dragon.

People on the Facebook group are reporting that the new board is double sided. Not sure how true this is
