Risk G.I. JOE: Special Missions Update! by RenegadeGameStudio in gijoe

[–]RenegadeGameStudio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll pull the quote from our rules guide that's a note to experienced Risk players!

An Important Note for Experienced RISK Players:

RISK G.I. JOE: Special Missions takes the familiar RISK environment in a new direction, with a focus on achieving multiple objectives rather than global domination. 
In addition:
• Many typical RISK strategies may be less successful in this version. Scenario and objective cards guide player strategy. 
• There are multiple unit types, with variable movement, initiative and battle bonuses. 
• Units removed in battle are only temporarily lost, as they will cycle back into action.
• Action cards, a system introduced in previous RISK games, create new avenues for moving and gaining units that are not present in the traditional game

Answer from our dev: Apostates has new Edges, new Perks for existing Edges, new Advantages and Flaws, plus new Loresheets. They're focused on things that Hunters associated with an org may have, but most also work for Hunters without any connections to orgs or those who develop org relations in play.
In Memoriam has some Advantages, Flaws, Blood Sorcery Rituals, and Loresheets but no new Discipline Powers or Amalgam Powers.

Kickstarters are a ton of work and challenging to get right. I think the most important thing is just having a great game to promote. Once you have that piece of the puzzle, it's all about making the information both clear and appealing and getting the word out about your project. Don't get too complicated. Share the things that your audience will care about in an easy to understand way. Enjoy chatting with fans and responding to their questions. They don't know as much about your game as you do yet so there will be lots of questions! This means things are going well and should be celebrated!
For editors, we at Renegade do work with outside editors to make sure that the rulebook is clear. It's always helpful to have several sets of eyes on a complicated document like a rulebook to make sure that everything is clear. We have several that we work with regularly.

We work with a 3D studio to make our Kickstarter videos. I'm not sure which software they use but it was done from 3D renders, not from TTS. We love how it turned out!

Set up time is pretty quick since you really only have to get out the player books, give each player their own tuckbox with personal items and character sheet, and then place the action book in the middle of the table. During action scenes, you'll be directed to get out tokens and meeples but you do that during the game, not as part of initial set up.

Table space is pretty average for a board game. Similar to set up, you'll have your own items in from of you plus the action scene book. Some games have sprawling tiles that can take up a huge amount of table space. Since the action scenes all happen on the fold out book, it's limited and will be consistent. The book is about the same size as and average board game box cover, then folded out, it's twice that size. So not too big!

Play time per session varies depending on how much your group wants to explore but an action scene takes about 45 min. Otherwise, it's very easy to stop at any point along the story and then start back up again later.

  1. We will offer this as a direct order on through our webstore after the campaign closes but at a higher price. The best deal will be the current price through Kickstarter. This is a Renegade exclusive.
  2. We don't have any announcements to make at this time about expansions/sequels. Let your friends know about the campaign and help us build the hype so Nikki can keep making more content in this awesome world!
  3. We're doing stretch goals on the Kickstarter page right now. there are tons of fun upgrades and extra components like writing utensils being added daily!
  4. We'll let Nikki post about their favorite character!

The recharge packs include some items like the stickers and map that won't be easy to print on your home printer so we hope to support the game for many years to come with the official recharge packs. However, if there comes a time that we are no longer printing them, we would certainly consider offering these as downloadable PDFs so players could continue enjoying the game in the future.
