You can read several complaints in the comments section of the Kickstarter project. The primer is too thick and steals details of the miniatures which is a shame. Everything was wrapped carefully in the package and the product itself (the game, the expansion and a little box with Kickstarter exclusive items) arrived unscathed! But yes, the miniatures aren’t as great as they could have been. But thankfully, both bookahnerk and I were just very happy with what we received. Of course I know that there is a huge risk backing some project and that you may not receive everything or anything at all as promised. I finally got an email from the partner mid-December that we will get our game some point soonish.Īt the beginning of January, it was finally here (Christmas and New Years had delayed the whole process)! And boy, was I nervous. It sounded as if the EU logistics partner had already sent out all game packages while lots of us hadn’t even received any email about the shipment. Also, there were some troubles with the logistics partners. When delivery started at the end of November / beginning of December 2018, I got a bit anxious as people said that the miniatures were really bad. Thankfully, the company that made the board game (Rule & Make) gave regular updates to inform us of the process. Estimated delivery date was November 2017 which was officially pushed back during the campaign already as they reached their stretch goals and knew that these would take more time to develop. Hand of Fate: Ordeals is the board game version of the Hand of Fate PC games. But let’s just say that it was a lot of money that I spent on Hand of Fate: Ordeals and I was nervous about the result. The fourth was AU$ 129 (roughly $ 92) plus taxes and delivery ($ 33). Three are in the price range of 5 to 25 € (give or take a bit as I’m too lazy to look up the conversion rates from $ etc.). Finally, Dave and Pawel had got together to play the extremely festive third edition of Arkham Horror.I have backed four projects on Kickstarter so far. Chris then goes back in time a little as he revisits a couple of old episodes (remember episode 17, when Pawel wasn't there to discourage Chris and Euan's behaviour? Or episode 72, when Chris wasn't there to discourage Dave's behaviour? Good times!), and talks about Century Spice Road, a lovely little cube trading and hand management game. In this first episode of 2019 the team are talking about their festive season tabletop gaming! Euan kicks off with Jurassic Park: Danger, a light attempt at replicating the original film, and also playing Munchkin with his family.

This week we have an episode rammed with board games, as Chris, Dave and Euan attended the ticket launch party for Tabletop Scotland 2019 and played a few little gems there! There's Klask, a dexterity game of magnets and scoring goals Evil Overlord, a short but utterly chaotic card game of set collection Skull, the simple but elegant bluffing game Rhino Hero: Super Battle, a dexterity game of building a cardboard tower and having your superhero ascend it and Walk the Plank, a short take-that card game with a programming twist! Finally, Chris and Dave talk about their recent experience at Red Dice Games, where they managed to get a play of New Frontiers, the latest in the Race for the Galaxy game family.
