Duciris 1,033 Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2018/6/6/heroes-of-terrinoth/ The Warhammer Quest and Forbidden Stars games released shortly before the deal with GW dissolved. I always wanted to see where they were going to go with the games. I'm excited they are able to take a second crack at it (assuming I am correct in my guess work).

Shirys 114 Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) FFG answering my prayers!! I always wanted a coop adventure card game such as WHQ:TACG set in the world of Terrinoth. Insta-buy for me ? Edited June 11, 2018 by Shirys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DailyRich 3,346 Posted June 6, 2018 Awesome news. The Warhammer one was basically the LOTR LCG without having to buy boosters and build decks, which made it easy to get out and play. 5 twincast, broknsword, Soshi Tsai and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kanosthefallen 5 Posted June 6, 2018 This is actually really great. It gives them a chance to make adjustments to the system and re-release it. Not that there was anything wrong with it in the first place, but who knows, maybe the thought of some new things to add. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barbacuo 151 Posted June 6, 2018 This is probably the first time I'm interested in a Terrinoth themed game. Too bad they dropped the Warhammer IP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyberkeith 14 Posted June 6, 2018 yay, heard a lot of good things about the Warhammer Quest game. now I can try out the 2nd edition Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reaver027 231 Posted June 6, 2018 I was wondering how long it would them take to reimplement the game with their own IP. Might give this one a try after not picking up the Warhammer one after i learned of the split. 1 twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If only FFG hadn't wanted to chase those Rune Wars minis dreams... It's not all that bad in this instance, and I've posted elsewhere that I think the TI universe could be a neat reuse of the Conquest mechanics. I just want to see something original from FFG. 2 1 skotothalamos, DarthBoromir and twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, they had 2 character expansions for the first game, but it was a really limited print run because of the split. I'm hoping for something more substantive than that for expansions, but maybe I'll wait to see the game release before I get to far gone down the expansion pipe dream. 1 twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Solanthus 9 Posted June 6, 2018 This is great, I really liked Warhammer Quest and was bummed there were no expansion. Having this in Terrinoth will give lots of opportunity for new stuff. 2 sentinelx33 and twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AleksDj 89 Posted June 6, 2018 Was hopping for this or new SW LCG, but ACG will work as well :) Already preordered through my retailer! This could be even better with lets say 2-3 exp per year, instead of LCG where you are always behind with expansions xD 1 twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty sure those were the Star Wars Legion minis dreams that killed the GW license. That and the fact that X-Wing has outsold 40k since release.

MMOfan 34 Posted June 6, 2018 Warhammer Card Quest was a good game but the campaign was fairly impossible to win in solo mode with 2 heroes. Let’s hope they tune this aspect a bit better. 1 Budgernaut reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
windforce10 8 Posted June 6, 2018 Great news! Curious to see if this game mixes easily with my Warhammer Quest ACG. Thumbs up for Uthuq Y'llan Skaven! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're definitely going to try sleeving and mixing the cards (unless, of course, there are drastic rules differences.... which I doubt). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johanloef 1 Posted June 6, 2018 I am just super happy that WHACG is back... might be slightly more polished and in a universe they (FFG) "own", so it will not have to shut down due to some lame IP-conflict... I, for one, am really excited to see what this little box will bring to the table ? 1 twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could factor, but GW is really awful to work with. Their MSRP is a lot closer to the cost FLGS have to pay to carry it, and they strictly control who can sell their product online and for how much. They've loosened those rains in the last 2 years, but FFG had to pay GW for the game license (like they do with SW & LotR) and were pretty limited in what they could produce for them - no minis for example, which is why Relic (Talisman in space) had busts for character representation. The Warhammer Fantasy Role-Playing Game 3e was a really neat system. I'm glad they were able to use the general mechanics to create SW:EotE & and now Genesys. If only they'd release an Arkham setting in it already! 3 broknsword, twincast and Soshi Tsai reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Constantine 956 Posted June 6, 2018 I'm really glad Warhammer ACG is coming back. And considering they basically had a game ready for them, and how much time it took them to "re-skin" it, I expect hefty improvements. 2 TalisDiorn and twincast reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
