>What is this?
/TG/ DEVELOPED A GAME
IT IS PLAYABLE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
EXPEDITION is a ~1880s era, Jules Verne-inspired retro-futurist, underground blood soaked adventurescape.
It is a Skirmish wargame. Two players with their own expeditions, on a hexgrid map, explore & fight each other for victory and profit.

3 versions of the rules exist, 2 of which have been playtested. The main one is 2e, to be found :
>https://www.mediafire.com/folder/us7vnek39dc6k/AgarthaRules
as with maps, tokens and lore resources.

Every Son has access to different powers, minions, gifts, etc. Entropy Heralds, for example, are likely either very rare, or unique to the player - since True Resurrection is very rare and valuable throughout the multiverse, a Son that can summon millions (or more) of minions that can use True Resurrection is unlikely.

In addition, Gifts are not only unique for the Son, but most Sons have far fewer options and total number of gifts, so they are more inclined to pick generalists. If you only had 1 GP, you'd probably pick a Falista or Alta-like gift over a Nida.

Phylacteries are a decent parallel - almost every Son has access to them in some way, Liches can make them and they're relatively common in the multiverse, and they're preventative instead of a 'fix'. As a result, they're less valuable than True Resurrection, even though superficially they do the same thing (keep someone from being dead).

They already summarized all of the changes and they're a lot less than what's been changed between Compendium and now. They didn't remove an entire phase of the game, for one.

Oh no, at 10,000 you would never be able to bring more than a Star. A Kit Fox with a green pilot (3/4) is something in the range of 1500. Five Kit Foxes will of course effortlessly crush a Freebirth assault lance, but this is to my point: Not a whole lot of miniatures. Elementals, maybe, you could round it out with Elementals.

>>97817200
They demonstrably aren't technogically stagnant and that's evident in how their model kits have changed over time. Also "technology" isn't a magic incantation that can be invoked to resolve problems arbitrarily, their issues are that their existing infrastructure was scaled for a much smaller market, but the market massively expanded in the last 10 years, the fix for that is not mystical "technology" its scaling up production to meet demand, that means buying more or renting more warehouse space, buying more injection molding machines and building new factories, which they have been doing.

A subset of their supply issues that actually dies relate to technology are metal and resin models. When Horus Heresy second edition came out various resin units were out of stock for 6+ months because resin casting is extremely time and labor intensive, similarly about 2 months after TOW came out GW put up a shitload of job postings for metal and resin casters, the increase in demand for resin and metal models that had previously been mostly the purview of games like necromunda and MESBG caused those games to have half their resin/metal ranges become unavailable. What are they doing to resolve this problem? Remaking models from those ranges as plastic kits, because its cheaper and faster. Why did they not do that sooner? Previously the sales of the kits in those materials wouldn't have justified the cost of making them in plastic. The whole issue is just that they need capacity

Also we know what it would look like if bandai made warhammer because they made warhammer.

That makes SO much fucking sense. Their severe "old bad new good" skew with everything from sculpts to balance changes / wanting even faster rules update churn than the absurd speed we currently have speaks to a MTG mindset of "fix the current fucked meta with the new set!" of every CCG out there.

They regularly sell Tolkien books at my workplace next to bibles and reprinted classics and copies of the constitution or art of war. Not just Tolkien, but Middle-Earth encyclopedias.

25* years for Fellowship. The movie trilogy is legitimately so good and in the sweet spot of coming out before Cinematic Universe slop, but after the booming rise of CGI getting good. It remains epic, influential, with legendary behind the scenes moments, and a common entry point for getting into movies, fantasy, storytelling, reading, or games in this case.
It also doesn't hurt that Tolkien is almost more influential to modern books than Shakespeare.

The actual game is okay. I think there is enough of a collector/player base that just buys a couple of minis every once in a while to keep things going, and the upkeeping the contract with a release like 1-4 times a year is lucrative in comparison to letting the contrast expire.

I like the idea of presealed packs being on the line when you play against someone. That is kinda like competitive PVE, which is an itch that isn't being scratched in the current favored co-op card game design.

>>97817809
Sealed is fucked because of coalition, probably makes cube a requirement to enjoy balanced limited. If you're buying a box to flesh out your collection then it all works out in the end, but the randomization is faction stacked so you get entire packs of "play this faction."

There's collectivist angle allowing "all people" to pursue their dreams, which is pretty Lawful.
But also dependence on slave labor (drugged out of their mind to stay content and compliant), which seems pretty Evil.
Or is ensuring the working class doesn't suffer kind enough to shift towards Neutral?
Assuming high fantasy, not mudcore where the peasants make over 90% of the population.
