For some reason this grabs me a little more than the D & D games, but I haven't looked at them much to be honest.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-91369921049998857052014-08-08T03:36:09.532+01:002014-08-08T03:36:09.532+01:00Not really much value there currently. Mini count...Not really much value there currently. Mini count is really low for 100 dollars. The D&D Coop games all have more and MSRP for like 65 dollars meaning they can be had for like 50. Those minis are not wargame quality but it is hard to comment on how these will be as they are also single piece and they are labeling them as colored plastic compared to premium plastic for many of the Kings of War pieces available as add ons.<br /><br />The D&D games also have solid quality cardstock components, not quite the embossed components from the Space Hulk game a few years ago but well aligned and thick and heavy. I have not heard great things about mantic's previous cardstock including stuff from the more recent deadzone<br /><br />The board tiles also do not appear to be interlocking and some are small which means that it is pretty easy to mess up the board accidently.<br /><br />While in 25 more days maybe they can add enough stuff to make it seem on par with other boardgames at this price point it seems pretty weak right now. They have totally listed stuff that would be in the game anyway as stretch goals like the 275K Paladin Hero who is on the cover art for the game.eriochromehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377904099582258296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-23041837068656896782014-08-07T23:26:20.041+01:002014-08-07T23:26:20.041+01:00I have it on 48h warning, looks tempting, but I do...I have it on 48h warning, looks tempting, but I don't really need it.
