[PG] The Queen's New Capital

[Nsan]

Ca me parait honnête. Faudra quand même payer un supplément pour envoyer les manuels aux hubs parisiens, mais moi ça me va.

Faut voter quoi (marre si plein le fion des votes en ce moment )

Etes vous pour une impression groupée du manuel des règles en VF pour environ 3.50€ par personne ?

• Oui
• Non

Hello,

Voici les dernières actus du projet :

Actu #19 - Production update!

Hello everyone, I am terribly sorry for the lack of updates in the last month. I wanted to be sure that all the problems we have faced already had a solution before I came here to talk about them. And here we are, with almost everything sorted out.

Let me break down everything into topics so that we can follow up easily:

PRODUCTION

1. The first batch of plastic inserts that were made did not survive the stress test. We had to upgrade the plastic material to a more sturdy one. We also added a thumb space near the card compartment, since it became quite difficult to remove the cards after they were all sleeved.
2. We were using a matte texture in the box, but after moving the games around, we started noticing strong scratch marks on it. We asked the factory if there was something we could do, and they recommended the use of an anti-scratch lamination. We approved it and upgraded the box as well.
3. This was the first time I worked with metal, for our metallic die stretch goal. And it did not go well. Since the revision time for this was quite long and I was not having good results with the supplier we found, we decided to move back to our comfort zone and make it plastic. However, to make sure it is a pretty cool die, we are making it with a deboss effect on a black surface, with a strong gold layering. It does look metallic. Sorry to disappoint you on this aspect, but we did not want to delay production for such a minor component in the gameplay.

We have been told by the factory that in a week or two all games will be ready. We will receive another copy soon and we will make sure to film this one and share it with you, to show exactly what you will be getting.

TRANSLATION

We have finished both Japanese and German translations for both the manual and player aids. We have added everything here for your appreciation (minor corrections might still happen)! The French version is taking a little bit longer, but we already have started moving forward with a new supplier. It will be ready before the game gets to you!

SHIPPING

As some of you might know, the global trade network is going through a hard time due to conflicts happening in key regions. We have already sorted out all documentation for the 4 hubs we are working with US, EU/UK, ASIA, and JAPAN (so much work!). We have also submitted the booking request to the freighter agent and we are now only waiting for the final confirmation of their earliest availability.

I want to say that everything looks like it is moving forward smoothly and you will get your games in August, but I do not want to call victory before we have everything on the water. Will share more information as soon as we have the games moving.

VIDEO PRODUCTION

We will record an updated how-to-play video in the following weeks. It will be divided into two parts, one for the basic game experience, and one for the expansions. We are now in a bigger space, so hopefully these will look great!

Our new playtest and video production Studio in Tokyo.

OUR NEW GAME

While the production and logistics of TQNC were underway, we have also been working on the development of JISOGI, the game we mentioned in our last update. We have new guest artists working with us, we have a team of experienced developers going through the game to balance it, and we have almost 75% of the art done.

Some of the Staff characters you will be able to hire for your Anime production team. I am already in love <3

Give the preview website a check, and, if you like the concept, follow the Kickstarter pre-launch campaign or our Instagram/ Twitter accounts for more updates!

Thank you as always for your support!

Actu #20 - Unboxing + Shipping Estimates

Hello! Great news. All games were manufactured and picked from the factory today by the forwarder. However, we were not able to secure dates as fast as we wanted for the ships to take them to all hubs.

What this means is: we will be able to fulfill the August delivery for some countries in Asia (Japan included), but our backers in Europe and the Americas will only receive their games mid-September. We do not have the specific dates yet, but as soon as we are sure of these we will share them with you.

If any of you need to change your address, the final chance for it is arriving soon. Make sure to reach out via the contact form on our Hive page: Hive - The Queen

In the meantime, I wanted to share an unboxing video, where I show all the components of the game you will be receiving at home and share some thoughts on my learnings. Hope this excites you for the imminent arrival.

As always, thank you very much.

Livraison prévue à partir de mi-septembre pour l’Europe!

Le matos a l’air sympa. Moins fan du dé par contre. J’attends de voir en vrai ce que ça donne, mais ça me parait taki tout de même.
