hope you are doing well and safe. In the last newsletter, I introduced the Engineer character and published the story behind the game, so in case you missed it, check it here: previous newsletter
Today I came with the following topics:
Try the game on Tabletop Simulator / Tabletopia
Character introduction - Shadow
Current project status - next todos
Online play
Let’s start with the biggest milestone: I just finalized the Tabletop Simulator and Tabletopia versions. Check the beautiful images about it:
Currently, it’s not yet fully public (you need to be my Steam friend). I’m looking for some enthusiastic players who will try/test the game with my personal help before I would release it.
Please write me (reply to this email) if you are interested in that.
Character introduction - Mortred (Shadow)
In the previous newsletters, I showed you the Warrior, Mage and the Engineer characters, now it’s time for the last and most special one, the Shadow. ;)
Mortred - Leader of the Shadows
“When I rise, others fall."
Shadows have only one goal: destroy humans. They are here from ancient times when they were created for war purposes. They have brutal strength and speed. Nobody can defeat them in an open battle, and they have no mercy at all. They have just woken up, but as time goes by, they become even stronger… They start their attacks from the northeast death territory - no living beings can stay there…
Read more about Mortred's personal suffering and understand his motives in the Story book:
In the game Mortred has unique and very different abilities comparing to the Clan Heroes:
Metamorph skill: each day he copies a clan Hero, so he can buy that type of action cards, receives the copied Hero’s already developed skills and the battle card clan modifier.
Shadow power: it is increasing automatically day by day, but you can accelerate it with some actions. If it reaches 7 you can use a Darkness card which causes horrible things for the clan Heroes
Sources of Darkness: with items (relic/crystal) you can activate them causing permanent disadvantages to the clan Heroes
Character sheet in the clan mode:
Character sheet in the shadow mode:
Clan Heroes need to work together and make sacrifices to deactivate the Sources of Darknesses and decrease your power. If they don’t do it you can win the game easily. And it is also fine when they decrease your power or deactivate the Sources of Darkness because they spend their resources for these not for completing the Magical barriers. Never forget that your goal is to prevent anybody from reaching Dimara in time!
Current project status
Solo mode development is in progress in the background, hardcore geeks help me in that. Besides that, I started to work on the KS campaign page - it will look amazing. ;) I prepare the 3d files for the “mass” prototype production. And it’s time to ask for quotes from the potential manufacturers, so I can figure out the best pledge levels and stretch goals for you. :)
If you like the game please help me in turning it into reality by spreading the word. Also you can subscribe it on BGG:
Okay, this is for today. If you want more info about the game check the official webpage here: https://legacyofthracksboardgame.com/ or just write to me (reply to this letter).
