Let's unveil the First Week Winner and SSG still on going!!!
almost 5 years ago – Wed, May 29, 2019 at 01:39:49 AM

The moment has come: the first Winner!

Hey there!

First we want to emphasize that many of you have been proving their commitment and enthusiasm ever since Icaion campaign started and we would like to thank each and everyone of you for this!! 

We are literally blown away by the comment section! Tons of interesting speculations, useful feedbacks and ideas from our great backers! Once again, even if we have not replied to every single comment, we surely have read them all! 

Nonetheless, unfortunately we can choose only one winner per week. We are just relieved that we can rely on an algorithm based on comments and other factors to see who the most active backer is, though. It would have been too hard for us to pick only one person among all our active supporters!

Without further ado, let's get right in there, shall we?

Our most active backer in the first week is:

CONGRATS!
CONGRATS!

Congratulations, Kyle, you sure deserve this!!! 👏 

Now you will be depicted by our talented leading artist Travis Anderson with a pet or a weapon, and we will include this artwork in the Event Board!

We will be sharing with you the work in progress of the artwork as soon as we receive the photo from Kyle and forward it to Travis so he can work on it!

For all the others: don't give up guys! You still have 2 other weeks to show your enthusiasm to Icaion and the campaign ;)

Social Stretch Goal to unlock: Don't forget to share!

Remember that you have the power to unlock a pretty cool Social Stretch Goal: when we reach 500 Shares of the Facebook post below, we will add the alternative bust of the Criminal miniature to every box, for free!

If you missed it, we spoke about it detail in our last update, you can go check it here!

We unlocked the Dark Bell!

Thanks to your marvelous support this Stretch Goal was unlocked: now the Dark Bell has finally rung in Icaion!! :) Now we have 3 Wonder miniatures and cards, how cool is that??

You did it!
You did it!

Next, we have 4 more Curio cards, come on fellas!!

A new incredible Social Stretch Goal to Unlock!
almost 5 years ago – Tue, May 28, 2019 at 12:35:59 AM

New SSG: We need your help to make it happen!

Good afternoon, folks!

The Criminal is the only Seeker that has two different character designs in the artwork, she can be either with her armor or not. This has inspired many of our backers about this character and now we are ready to unveil a great surprise!

A modular miniature

We have decided to gift you an amazing new miniature: an alternative bust for the Criminal Miniature!
That's right, you will be able to switch the criminal miniature in two different poses: with or without armor. Yet that's not all, it will not be just a cosmetic alternative, as it will also bring awesome rules into the game.

The goal to reach to unlock this free mini!

Instead of making this new mini a normal Stretch Goal, we decided to make it a Social one. This means that if THIS POST reaches 500 Shares, we will add the alternative bust to every box, for free!

With 500 shares the miniature will be yours!
With 500 shares the miniature will be yours!

Great new rules with the new mini!

In Icaion, the armor is a valuable technological asset for the Criminal. Investigating the Colossus and interacting with the Apparatus is going to be a breeze inside that suit. Just... try not to get hit or you will lose the armor. To put it back you need to waste precious time and... well... all Seekers know that time is a precious resource in the harsh regions.

In Mysthea: The Fall, the armor is useful again to protect the Seeker from Enemy attacks, while removing it will provide an agility bonus to the Criminal. What will you choose between Dexterity and Toughness?

You can do it, share this post and get the miniature!
You can do it, share this post and get the miniature!

Oh and be ready, tomorrow we have a big day ahead of us: we will announce the first weekly reward, and the poll's winner and speaking of which, have you had the chance to take it? If you haven't you still can vote the look of the game board here!

Stay tuned!

Surprises for our backers and details about the two versions of Mysthea!
almost 5 years ago – Sat, May 25, 2019 at 01:24:11 AM

The Monsters Bundle Add-on is really happening!

Howdie, you all!

We have some surprises we hope everyone will enjoy! 

With all the requests we received for the 3 Monsters add-on we did some research and had a long chat with our factory and distributors. We asked them whether it was feasible or not to create this add-on. In brief, their answer was YES!

The 3 Monsters miniature and relating cards will be available in the pledge manager after the end of the campaign! You will be receiving them with their own little box, specific tray and rulesheet and their price should be €15. The shipping costs will be displayed in the pledge manager directly.

The 3 Miniature add-on is here!
The 3 Miniature add-on is here!

So, for those who got the Mysthea: Essential Edition, we got you covered! With these 3 miniatures and relating cards you will have the same amazing game experience! And speaking of which, we think it might be interesting for you to compare feature by feature the two different editions of Mysthea. It is our intention to better explain in detail that the playability won't be affected in any way. 

Click here to visit our website and read an in depth breakdown of all the differences between the two editions.


Game Board print: your opinion counts!

After feeling all your excitement in the comment section about the back of the game board print, we have decided that you deserve to have a say on this matter!
 

For this reason we have come up with a poll: we will be giving different options and you will have the chance to tell us what you think by choosing your favorite option.
 

Most of them popped up in the comment section and we thought about the others. We always give our best to listen to our backers, and we hope this unexpected treat will make you happy! Here's the survey, now let the vote begin


We cannot wait for the future Stretch Goals to unlock! In the meantime, let us know what you think in the comments!

More Curio cards and a new Seeker!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, May 24, 2019 at 01:04:43 AM

3 new Curio Cards!

Hi, there!

Yesterday 3 more Curio Cards were added to your decks: now they are 6 new special Curio unlocked from stretch goals, making the gameplay more varied!

The curio represent the items and ancient artifacts that the Seekers find and employ during their expedition. Relics from ancient times before the cataclysm!

Precious Curio cards!

New Seeker!

Now another amazing Stretch Goal, a new Seeker miniature and related card among us! Below a little in depth analysis of her interesting background!  We are still finalizing the design, but here she is!

Do you like this new miniature?
Do you like this new miniature?

She’s a convicted criminal that escaped from the city years ago, having a hefty bounty on her head she would be arrested on the spot if she ever set foot in the City again. To survive the wilderness and harshness of the outside regions, she built a set of armor with thermal capabilities, to keep her warm and protected. Being unrecognizable in the armor, she was able to join a Seeker’s convoy and managed to enter the Organization undercover. She did not reveal her identity until she proved her value to the Organization leaders, who then decided to protect her due to her incredible survival and adaptation abilities on the outside. She now lives in Organization Headquarters outside the walls and outside the City jurisdiction.

Next stretch goal is the print of the Icaion logo (or maybe you guys can come up with some other interesting ideas?) in the back of the Game board, leet's gooo, guys!!

The painted Creature!

Lastly, not sure everyone saw them, but we have some photos of the miniatures painted by Gabriele, our marketing manager here at Tabula! Below one example of our highly detailed miniature: The Creature

Do you feel her power?

Don't you think too that our female Seekers are badasses? ;)
