the crowd goes wild
I cannot tell you all enough just how excited I am about this.
If I actually had money to spend a bagillion dollars on this to get what I wanted, I would so pledge the five hundred for Character Elaboration and choose the Hippo Man from Haka’s Savage Mana card… Hopefully someone else will get around to it.
Edit: Fingers crossed for stretch rewards return with the New Baron Blade
What are the chances of us getting a peek at the artwork for the HP and damage modifier counter tokens? 
I’m in. I see there’s no new alt hero card this time, which is a shame (I love stuff like that), but I’m pledged for a new copy of the core game and the new expansion. It will be a long summer while I wait for it to be delivered. 
The Hippo Man is absolutely my favorite small-time villain.
I say we should start a Hippo Man fan club and demand a Hippo Man card. With your connections you could surely push them into it.
Haha, we could make a sub Kickstarter. All the reward levels will be “If this gets funded, we ask >G to make a Hippo Man card”.
Also, I am incredibly excited for the theme of this expansion. Those tentacles behind the pyramid! That tree person! I think mah heart’s a-splodin’!
It’s genius! I’m sure we’re not only two who desire Hippo Man to be there. I’d be happy if he was just be a stand alone promo villian card that can be used awkwardly with all villian decks.
I wasn’t too excited when I heard it was a arcane expansion, but after seeing the cover it got my blood pumping. Both heroes just look amazing, especially the female one. Not too mention the villians and it is only half the those. So glad I will be a playtester, going crazy just waiting until next month let alone in August.
There will be alt heroes.
That’s all I’m saying on this right now.
If there will be alt heroes but no alt heroes are part of the Kickstarter, then does that mean that to get said alt heroes, you need to physically go to a convention and be handed one? I’m hoping not.
Stretch goals?
You will have no trouble getting the promo cards…
Come on, guys! I’m trying not to spill the beans too much here!
You will have no trouble getting the promo cards…
I am satisfied now. 
Very awesome! My girlfriend and I have been playing the game a lot since PAX East, and I am excited about backing additional expansions, and love that the second printing of the main game is going to be so improved.
Don’t scare me like that! Seriously, I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the news! But now I’m just really excited again!
I will need more details on the Enhanced Second Edition before deciding.
- Will the card back of all the decks be updated?
- Will any existing art be updated?
- Will the new box hold just the base game plus 2 expansions? Will there be space for a third or fourth expansion?
- Will the storage solution be sleeve friendly?
- Will Young Legacy be re-released with thicker card stock? This is just for OCD me.
- What will the HP counters look like?
- Will there be damage count modifier counters? Damage type modifier counters?
- Will the pdf for existing first edition owners include the remastered environment decks with new art?
Thanks!
I’m just really glad that they added a new level of support because I wanted the 2nd Printing of Core, Relics, and the Promo cards, and they introduced a new support level! I was so happy about it since I was pondering which level to get in the first place since I wanted all 3.
I literally said the exact same thing to my roommate earlier. I say we should round up a group and have everyone chip in to get Hippo Man more “screen time”!
And I’m trusting you with the fate of the promo cards, Chris. I’ve already done my pledge, so if we’ll have “no trouble”, I’m assuming anyone who at least did the $30 will get them. I hope. Because I want every single card. Ever.
But if it’s like last time and getting the promo card is an extra $10-$15, no hassle. I can handle that.
I completely agree with you, if only we know someone who is actually trust worthy enough to have them put the pledge in for that. I sure know I don’t want the responsibilty for it.
I think the thirty dollars was the lowest amount you had to pledge to get all the Rook City bonuses so you should hopefully be good in that aspect. I also want to have all the cards it’ll be pretty sweet.
If they ever offer that reward again, I honestly say we start a group and somehow pool our donations to get Hippo Man his time in the spotlight. Either him, or the orangutan with the lazer gun on Tachyon’s Lightning Reflexes.
