Damn.
I never saw so much hate & s....ts comments about copyright crap or bad communication and blah blah blah here and everywhere on US boards.
For one time in their lives, american people seems to discover there is a hole full of water between Europe & the USA and that it costs a lot to send more than 4 kgs by mail.
Why the price is in canadian dollars ?Because when you open a kickstarter project you can't launch it from everywhere.
Just check the official page and see it yourself.
Since Gamezone has a company in Canada, they have found out more simple to launch it from there.
What's the price for an european ?110€ for the last pledge to get all bonus.
Add 30€ to euro countries for postage & package.
Total : 140€.
Spanish people will pay less. That's normal after all.
The average price of Fantasy Flight boardgames : 80 to 100€ the box (descent etc).
+ Postage & package & Bonus : zero
Another example : 65€ + 12 of postage & package here in France for D&D WOTC boardgames ... not traduced.
Translations ? Right now they required help from fans to make a quick update of the pages but they are going to hire professional people.
GameZone Miniatures exists for more than 20 years but it's a small company running with a tiny team and I can tell you they are doing their best.
So yes they don't communicate so much. They are too busy on this KS trying to finish the videos which are coming, waiting for the latest minis to put the photos online etc.
A thing to remember :Nothing is defintively terminated. You can send your feedback about the board and send suggestions to them.
They're not ignoring fans. They warn me about the late on friday at 18h06.
I could tell it to french fans who were waiting. They sent me an email at 22h13 to let me know I could spread the world the KS started. Yes they were working late on the evening trying to respect the release date. Yep this is not their fault if KS didn't launch heroquest on last friday and didn't assume the responsability of their customer planings.
They are dealing with Hasbro to get it produced & distributed later in 2015.
They also plan expansions.
Some people are also suggesting to buy old boxes. Most of the time it are overpriced on eBay. The choice is faslty taken when you have a new box full of things and one used with broken things Inside or missing pièces. YES it's a rebirth of HeroQuest and there are things which are going to change. It has been the case with Space Hulk V3 & V1, with many games in fact.
I don't see the rules, more things etcThen wait a little bit plz. I just watched ALIENS VS PREDATORS kickstarter : I only see some minis, ugly tiles, a short explanation of the rules and predator character sheets that's all.
Nothing about aliens marines etc. Do you think they are not Professional too ? ... if KS start to open door only to "Professional people" with money then let's give it up because only big companies will purpose something that suit your desires to see everything at the very first begining of the kickstarter.
I remember was talking to one of the 3 french creators of Zomibicide and his first video was rmm was what it was
Wasn't convinced about the game at his debut but people don't like to remember this kind of stuff when they are talking about HeroQuest kickstarter.
This is a project at 80% right now.
They offer stretch goals for free which is not the case with other KS which are asking you more & more money.
So I won't tell you more about it. You'll see it by yourself.
