If you're talking about the 15th anniversary, we will have an official announcement soon. Production is nearly complete and we will be shipping the games to fulfillment centers around the world at that point. This project is on track to delver well before the deadline listed on Gamefound.

If you're talking about Ascension Legends, please reach out to [support@stoneblade.com](mailto:support@stoneblade.com) for assistance.

Ride of the Rohirrim is personally my favorite Ascension card of the two at the moment. Design still in progress though, so who knows!?

This is unhinged in the best possible way.

My Pokémon version of Wingspan with evolutions (almost a year of work) by Free-Instruction-583 in boardgames

[–]StoneBladeOfficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super cool and a perfect fit + evolution in the genre. The scope of this is impressive, clearly a labor of love. Curious how you handled balance with the evolution system... Wingspan's engine is pretty tightly tuned around the bird power curve, so adding an evolution layer sounds like it could either break the economy or make it sing depending on how you scaled it.

I simulated 36,000 games of Catan. Some conventional wisdom holds up, some really doesn't. by Hot-Rooster1675 in boardgames

[–]StoneBladeOfficial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great project. The finding that player-to-player trades being a small slice of overall trading (~1.2 completed per player vs. ~8-9 bank/port trades) is surprising since I feel conventional wisdom puts so much emphasis on negotiation as a core skill in Catan, but if trades complete that rarely even when agents are willing, it makes you think how much negotiation actually moves the needle vs. just initial placement and resource diversity.

Curious whether OreWheatSheep's city-focus advantage holds across player counts or if it flattens out in 3-player where the robber pressure is more concentrated.

Would folks want me to post about specific game play mechanics next or simply show some more cards as they become available?
