So let's talk about this Kickstarter then.
September 2 - about a month away. I was probably more nervous heading into the Kickstarter for Forge War, but the difference is pretty minimal. And it's almost like I'm nervous in a different way. I mean, look - Forge War is my baby. I will always love it and care for it, and I am happy that it has gone out and found its
place in the world.
Gloomhaven is my new baby, though. It has required far more nurturing and investment - not just monetary investment but also emotional investment. It's like, I'm happy for Forge War's success, but I
want Gloomhaven to grow up and be PRESIDENT, you know? That's the potential I see in this new baby.
I don't know if that makes any sense...
Speaking of Forge War, though, a second printing is currently in the works. As we speak, more little overseer meeples are being produced and put into shiny boxes. The plan is to finish production in time to ship a couple pallets over to Europe for Essen. We didn't have a whole lot of post-Kickstarter distribution of Forge
War in the EU, so I'm hoping to get more copies of the game into people's hands over there.
Yes, I am definitely going to Essen. Are you going to Essen? We should hang out.
All right, I think that's about all the news there is. If you've missed it, I've been posting lots of cool artwork for Gloomhaven over the last couple months on the BGG page, and now I'm doing weekly "lessons" leading up to the Kickstarter launch to help people get a better handle of the game, so you should check those out too.
Next time you hear from me will be when the Kickstarter goes live! Are you nervous? I'm nervous.
