philippe asked 8 years ago

will you sell the stretch goals ? I can print the Hero’s power (i prefer to buy it) but i can’t print the unbound buff… I’m french, live in France.
Thank you

In the box there is the Unbound buff card but not the 3-D figure, i found the 3 Ruins gards card too but the figure wasn’t unlocked… So i think all the cards have been printed for all the boxes, even for exclusive stretch goals, even for unlocked figures…
I think it’s a mistake to not include the heroe’s sheet, because the game need it, really, without ? Heroes… Not really interesting, with the Heroes’ powers the game change and the strategy change… Why don’t you put it in the box, for me it’s a part of the game not an add-on, without it your game is less interesting… (sorry for my english… I’m french), i hope i will can buy all this stuff, backers keep a really good price as reward..

Hello Philippe,
thanks for your question and no problem about your English, I have too often similar problems (I’m Bulgarian 🙂 …
About the cards – you are right – the cards are included as nice artwork touch to the game for everybody and they are getting really useful, when you have the miniatures. Due to automatic production reasons we cannot separate the cards from the foiled decks, so they are available for everybody, but I strongly doubt that somebody could be against this solution….

Now to your next issue – if you were backer on the campaign, you would have all the additional stuff, but I guess you acquired the game later through the retail – right? May I ask you from where – it is interesting for me just to follow how our first retail channels are developing.
According to our promise to the backers – this version of the Hero Sheets is KS EXCLUSIVE material, so we could sell the rest of the print run only in our own shop in Sofia or on events and conventions, but not through regular retail. We cannot break this promise, no matter what you think about the game without the hero powers. I played the game for more than 3 years without them and i insist on my opinion that the game has so much to offer even without them. So it’s a very nice product even without the KS extras. We have included already so many KS non-exclusive bonuses in the box, but we cannot do that with all of them.
We plan to release a separate version of the hero sheets in a later expansion, which will be different, but also very interesting. But this will take time.
The miniature of Unbound Buff was only KS Promo, it means non-exclusive, so we can sell it, but for now we do not have organised distribution for the complementary materials and I cannot offer you a solution in France. For now… but I’m working on it!
To buy it from us directly is also still impossible, since we do not deliver abroad for now. This should change during this year (at least for EU countries), but we are checking now some logistic partners and payment methods, since the delivery costs are too high for the moment from our point of view.
Sorry that the news I brought to you are not very helpful for your direct request, but though our willingness to help everybody, our possibilities have their limitations too…

Hi again Philippe,
I thought about your case and can tell you one possible solution – you will be able to pledge/ “buy” for the Hero Sheets and the Unbound miniature on the next KS campaign about the first big expansion. They will be available as add-on on the complementary campaign, probably in May….
….not anymore for free like on the basic campaign, but still an option – this is just fair, because they were SGs…

Hi Alexandar It is very good idea, really 🙂 I’m counting on you and this idea. I know that this is figure only, but “knight with hammer on armadillo” is irreplaceable 🙂 Anyway, even then when you can play w/w figure I think that Hero sheets should be able to buy then or they should be included in expansion. Why ? Because there will be next 2 fractions and if you/backers decide to get next 2 sheets, there can be some misunderstanding for some players, like “those 2 sheets are great, why I can’t buy rest of 4 for my core game” Thanks

Thank you for your answer. For me Heros’ power are really important, i played other games with this kind of option and it’s really better, reveal the game. Without powers a Hero is just a picture on board… Male ? Female ? Doesn’t matter… OK we have to play advance game so Hero and factions become more important but Male ? Female ? And more than that i can be from one faction or another, it’s the same, it’s sad.
With Heros’ power, factions matters, there are not the same ! the core of your game matter !  My Hero can do lot of good stuff on the board, i need my male AND female on board ! Figures become very important like it has to be in your game ! i can think about strategy with my Heros’ power in mind… Great ! Why KS Exclusive ??? I don’t understand really, it’s a part of your game, the core maybe ? Because your game is about Heroes and Faction and without the power… When we play… faction and Heroes are less important… and not a few… It’s the way i see that. Your game is still great but with Heroes power you can feel the heart beat of Battalia (Factions and Heroes), without not really.
I print my version of your sheets, but your print should be better 😉
I would like to play with the figure for the unbound buff, i bought the game to Philibert, if they can have the figure i will be pleased and not the only one 😉 I see this good KS Promo, see the card and… can’t use it… I like playing with all the options, it always make the games better.
 
Thank you for your idea, how can i know when you start KS ? This time i want to be a backer 😉
 
And thanks again for your answer
