Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

The time has come to announce a bunch of good news!<\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, we received the last miniatures HD samples<\/strong> and we approved everything. The molds production (about 50 days), then the plastic drafts production of the whole game can start. That means we\u2019re entering the home straight: the manufacturing of the game.<\/p>\n

Second, for an optimal understanding of the rules, we rewrote the full rule-book<\/strong>, campaign book and SG rules. The French draft is almost done and we\u2019ll send it for translation this month. Learning from our previous campaigns, we hired a professional literary American translator to grant you a nice translation (we didn\u2019t have this quality on Outlive). We\u2019ll post the final draft as soon as we\u2019ll get it, and wait for your possible feedback before sending it to the printer.<\/p>\n

Third, we\u2019re hopeful we\u2019ll have every file ready for production around mid-May<\/strong>. We\u2019re on schedule for a delivery between September and October<\/strong>. That\u2019s still a 2 to 3 months delay compared to our initial planning. We\u2019re very sorry for that, it\u2019s always hard to precisely anticipate every bump on the road on such a big project with so many subcontractors.<\/p>\n

Last, every game will be produced on a bilingual basis (French \/ English)<\/strong>. We opted for this solution to get a smoother production and for the retail market. You will have every booklet in double, one for each language. The only thing we had to remove from the cards was the weapons names so as to get a text less version fitting the two languages.<\/p>\n

The LBDJ Ambassadors program<\/h2>\n

I know you are all waiting for your game and so are we! But let me briefly talk about our next project: Neta-Tanka<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That\u2019s a worker-placement game from Herv\u00e9 Rigal (Shakespeare) that will be on Kickstarter once the production of Clash of Rage will have started (May-June). That will be our fourth Kickstarter campaign and we planned many surprises for you \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

But I\u2019m not here to plug this project; I just want to inform you that, from now on, we\u2019ll set an ambassador program up<\/strong>. Other publishers already did this and instead of telling you \u201cour games are good\u201d (even if we now they are ^^), we want to let the players and backers decide for themselves. We\u2019ll manufacture tens of prototypes and send them to some volunteers that want to give their feedback on the game.<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/h3>\n

The deal is simple :<\/p>\n
