So is this furniture meant to replace that in HeroQuest? I think you should have a pledge level set that replaces the furniture and doors in HQ, and have add-ons for the expansion sets. That way, boardgamers who don't own HQ can get a beat-up copy on eBay or the cards on Artscow, and use your terrain. The other miniatures can be proxied, but it's still hard to find dungeon terrain, particularly if you don't want to buy the pieces piecemeal. EDIT: Maybe the doors can be separate add-on for HQ owners who don't have much to pledge?

If anyone from Ye Olde Inn is working with you, you can also have terrain SG's that match fanmade scenarios, linked to during the campaign.

I'd also like to see 3D markers for the bone, fallen rock, pit, etc. tokens. The flat bone counters in Dungeon Saga were a smart idea, since they could double as bases.

EDIT: Descent 2nd edition is another popular dungeoncrawler. How about a dungeon terrain set for the base game and expansions?

So besides being a member of Ye Olde Inn, and liking and sharing and pledging 5L, what else do we need to do to get bennies? :orc:

Thanks!

In the definite "to-do" list there is an ice wall and fire wall. May add some more if there are requests :D

When you get closer to the KS make sure you get some pictures of the pieces alongside the HQ minis, and other fantasy figure ranges (Otherworld, Reaper, Mantic etc) as I think this KS will have an appeal very much wider than the HQ fraternity. Also against a section of HIrst Arts (being pretty much the universal standard) floor/wall pieces.

Yea hope to do that, just im lacking pieces from the other dungeon makers! I better put an order in or something. Good pick on the avatar ;)

Waiting this KS, even if my wallet is already crying.

Best wishes with the project.

Thanks Magokiron :D I hope the rest of the pieces in the next few weeks will also be something you like!

Thats a great idea to cater to the HQ fans. Will definitely have a level for the core HQ replacements.

If anyone from Ye Olde Inn is working with you, you can also have terrain SG's that match fanmade scenarios, linked to during the campaign.

Its a nice idea, and fine with doing stuff for the fanmade quests - but the scenery is meant to be more generic than just heroquest, for other dungeon games too. Will ponder that one, could be cool if it doesnt tie the KS too heavy with just HQ (as much as i do love it :P)

I'd also like to see 3D markers for the bone, fallen rock, pit, etc. tokens. The flat bone counters in Dungeon Saga were a smart idea, since they could double as bases.

We have a bones sprue at the moment. Pit is difficult, still thinking how to best make one that sits on a flat board. But yea, loot piles and clutter are on the to-make list :D Thanks.

Aside from that? :P Just need to raise the profile, get more backers aware of the KS and then should be able to unlock lots of different stretch goals :D
Thanks for the feedback and ideas Ced!

Has anybody an estimated idea of how much may this cost? It's really awesome how much immersion can give all these elements.

Hey Luis, welcome to the inn! Have an ale! |_P
We will be working out costs and pledge levels later on next week. Along with putting up the pre-launch KS page. Hope to keep costs down as much as possible for backers!
