Je me permets de relayer un mot de l’équipe de Mindclash Games sur BGG concernant les changements à venir très bientôt dans la gamme Anachrony :
From Fall 2019, we will be introducing a new retail product structure for Anachrony. In this post I would like to share some official information regarding the differences between the current and the new structure.
Currently, there are two Anachrony products available in retail:
The Base Box includes the 2-4 player base game, the Chronobot solo mode and the Doomsday module.
The Exosuit Commander Pack includes the Pioneers of New Earth module, the Guardians of the Council module, and 30 Exosuits (6 of which are part of the Guardians module).
Once the print run currently on the market is sold out, these two products will be discontinued.
The new structure will introduce three products:
The Anachrony Essential Edition will only include the 2-4 player base game, at a lower price than the current Base Box.
The Exosuit Miniature Set will include the 24 Exosuits for the base game, 6 for each of the 4 Paths, at a lower price than the current Exosuit Commander Pack.
The Classic Expansion will include the Doomsday, the Pioneers of New Earth and the Guardians of the Council modules, along with the 6 Guardian Exosuit miniatures.
Please note that this product structure doesn’t introduce any new content compared to the current one - it merely breaks down the current content a bit more so that it can be mixed and matched better.
It also doesn’t include or affect the new expansion, Fractures of Time, which will only be released into retail after its Kickstarter fulfillment has been fully completed. The new and improved solo mode (Chronossus) which is compatible with all expansions and modules will be included in the Fractures of Time expansion going forward, while the original Chronobot (which only supports the base game) will be available as a free download from our new website (launching soon), and BGG.
En bref, 1 boite de base pour 2 à 4 joueurs, 1 boite pour les extensions de la boite de base, 1 boite pour les exosuits, et 1 boite pour Fractures of time + mode solo amélioré. Le tout sera très certainement localisé en VF comme la gamme actuelle.
Vu que j’accorde peu d’importance aux minis, cette offre est clairement pour moi : Anachrony Essential Edition + Fractures of Time (pour avoir le mode solo) + éventuellement le « classic expansion », le tout en VF, et la facture devrait être bien moins élevée que l’actuel KS VO + frais de port !
Il suffira juste d’être patient… plus facile à dire qu’à faire
