(Commercial) Crooked Dice 7TV second edition pre-order
« on: October 19, 2015, 11:12:41 AM »
7TV 2nd edition Dicestarter launches!

If you can't beat them, at least lower them into your huge magma pool…



Today from our hidden volcano lair we launch our Dicestarter pre-order campaign for our brand new 7TV 2nd edition rules. For 6 weeks you will be able to order the boxed game at a special discount and/or all the individual components if you don't want the shiny box. Unlike normal crowd funding, this doesn't rely on pledges – it's all going to get made regardless (despite you meddling kids).

http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/wp/product-category/7tv2-ds/

The core release is the boxed game. This contains all the rules and cards you need to play 7TV:



The rules are the same as the free beta version, but now come in two full colour rulebooks packed with background and photographs from the world of 7TV.

Pre-order miniature starter casts!
To get your 7TV games off to a flying start, we are offering six exclusive miniature bundles. Each cast contains eight miniatures enough to play a 30 ratings cast at a reduced price of £15. Each starter cast is themed and each contains at least one new sculpt – sometimes more!

YOU CAN BUY STARTER CASTS WITHOUT BUYING THE BOXED GAME – BUT these deals will only be available during the pre-order campaign. The new sculpts will be available at full price later in 2016, mixed in with our usual monthly release deals.













It’s NOT really a crowdfunding thing
You’ll definitely be getting your new toys. It’s not dependant on us reaching any funding goal! The campaign is simply a pre-order system that will get you: the 7TV boxed game at a cheaper price; access to mini deals not available at any other time; and bag you some lovely new sculpts in advance of 2016 releases! So tell your friends and wax lyrical about the game and miniatures at your club nights – world domination isn’t easy and we want everyone to play 7TV!

Pre-order dates
The pre-orders for all our 2nd edition products will run from Monday 19th October to Sunday 29th November. During this time you will be able to order the 7TV 2nd edition boxed game, any or all of the individual components and the starter casts to take advantage of the special offers.

Placing your order
Simply order as you normally would. If you want to add to an existing pre-order then leave us a note about your new purchases at checkout – quoting your original order number. If you want to cancel or amend an order, email us and we will refund you any excess shipping paid.

Delivery
Any product which states it is a 2nd edition pre-order in the description will only ship once we have the product. You can add ANY already available items to your pre-order, but note that the whole order will be held until we take delivery of the 2nd edition stock.

We will keep you updated on the expected arrival date of the 2nd edition stock. We currently expect this to be somewhere between the first week in December to the first week in January. After we receive it, our glamorous shipping assistants will start to get the orders out, more or less in the order we received them in the first place.

Do I need all the cards and counters, or can I get away with just the rule books?

Entirely up to you :) There are over 200 cards. You can print them from the website (update coming in the next couple of weeks) and stick them together. You could use anything for plot points. Status tokens are handy, but again you can print and make your own.

Thanks all!

Here are some new photos of the Evil Mastermind and Flamboyant Agent sculpts (both by the irrepressible Ernst Veingart) available in some of the starter cast sets. And also the lovely pewter Maguffin token that comes (unpainted) with the boxed game set - sculpted by the very talented Andrew Maclachlan (aka Andym).

Same - but now in two colour books all swanky and that. And with photography by Mr Kevin Dallimore.

These print version have some tweaks compiling all the playtesting comments - most notably to the vehicle rules.

We'll post up a new print ready, b&w, no pics PDF version of this and all the cards in the next couple of weeks.

Never fear! The new sculpts in the pre-order will be available in 2016 as part of our usual release schedule. They'll most likely be split amongst different packs (but with other new figures) - that you can purchase in the usual deal or individually. For example the Flamboyant Agent and Evil Mastermind will likely be £4 each when sold individually.

The benefit of the pre-order starter casts is that they are priced at (approximately) 50 per cent off - although I appreciate you may have other figures there that you already own for that price.
