So...yeah.
Any chance we can learn about the fate of what is arguably the best game CMON ever made? :)
Please?

Agreed!
They also let another one of their really good games - Wrath of Kings - die of neglect too.
Two games, lots of fun to play, both with fantastic looking miniatures...both all gone, like...
Just like the Corporations abandoned planet A23-Q4B to start off the Dark Age on what is now known as Samaria...
...CMON has abandoned us all, and the game of Dark Age as well.
We are now...
I don't think that statement above is true.
I'm fairly certain we'd know if someone bought the Dark Age IP.
Asmodee took on distribution of CMON's games in North America, as seen here:
...
I'd also like this too - hopefully someone can help us out...
Thank you for keeping the fire burning!
CMON may no longer care about the best game they were ever involved with, but I'm certainly glad other people still do! :)
Basically done?
Er...not really!
I know I really wanted the new BROOD book and all of what were sure to be some fantastic new BROOD models.
Then there's the EARTH CASTE for DRAGYRI...
Yes, I saw that.
I was hoping for something more "Official" and "Concrete" vs. the bog-standard "Soon™" that could mean anytime between now and the heat death of the universe...
Hello!
Can we please get an 'official' answer as to what exactly is going on with Dark Age.
No new releases for almost 1/2 a year.
The Brood Book and resculpts pushed back from Gencon...
I hope this is really happening, and that this means CMON hasn't abandoned Dark Age.
Thank you for the reply - much appreciated!
Love the game - wish CMON did too... :(
How did this tournament go?
Any results?
Pics and lists of the winning armies?
80% off what stock they do have feels like a bad sign too...
I hope I’m wrong, of course, because Dark Age is, hands down, the best skirmish game I’ve ever played, with some of the best looking...
No one knows.
Most likely almost no one at CMON knows.
But what CMON is - or isn't - doing with Dark Age feels rather ominous.
Many are in the same boat as you!
And it looks like CMON might be killing off Dark Age too, sadly!
At 55 seconds in, that's all the new Brood stuff - I don't think much of it has been released yet though!
There was an annual report...a year or two ago?...where CMON's income from miniature wargames was revealed - and it was SHOCKINGLY low.
Now, given how CMON supports (or doesn't) and distributes...
I keep seeing people online posting that WoK is, essentially, 'dead' - that beyond the Book 2 stuff, nothing else is coming.
But then, I occasionally hear the opposite.
Do we know what's going...
At this point, you'll be slightly better off at:
http://dark-age.com/forum/forum.php
or one of the larger independent forums like Dakka Dakka.
Or, possibly, on Facebook, on the Dark Age...
Apparently they'll be available "this weekend" - so...soon! :)
I did see this Facebook post:
but was just wondering if we knew roughly when this week they'd be available?
I'm traveling for work (maybe!) and it would be easy for me to miss out if it...
Ha!
Yes, well said!
With any Kickstarter, everything is OK and on time, until it isn't! :)
I miss Confrontation...
...and, I'm in! :)
I think we already knew some would be changed?
For example, some of the "Goritsi" themed ones were going to have gravestones and such moved around/changed/eliminated so models could actually bit...
I'm pretty sure this isn't a "One And Done" game - at least, I certainly hope not! :)
So about that Kickstarter Update yesterday...?!? :)
Ha - good one! :)
So...
...more info on the Goritsi and Teknes models, please? :)
Huh!
OK, I'll play along! :)
1) Why can't you tell us?
2) When can you tell us?
Also - played a demo game (or two!) at Adepticon, and I had a blast!
Played Teknes, and I really enjoyed...
Good question - I'd love to get an update on this as soon as possible!
The Dancing Master does look nice, but I don't think that's a 'production' quality miniature coming from this KS?
Any kind of 'official' update on this would certainly be appreciated...
Same here - any idea on what's what?
I went 'all in' on Teknes and Goritsi, and hopefully no one is going to be suffering from Droopy Weapon Syndrome! :)
Wouldn't we have heard something about it by now though, if Gencon 2014 was a target for anything?
I am still really looking forward to this, but I can't help but feel that Wrath of Kings has...
Agreed!
Also, are the rules and cards now considered to be in their 'final' state, or is playtesting and changes (potential) still ongoing?
That sounds good - I think?
If I understand it all correctly, and it is right, of course! ;)
Well if nothing else, it looks like the rules haven't been finalized - there's hope yet! :)
Thanks Curtis - that does help a bit! :)
Is there a 'drop dead' date when the rules will have to be considered set in stone so they're ready for the printers?
Yeah, same here.
THIS is the faction that got my into Wrath of Kings. I love the look of a lot of their models, and I'm going to be sticking with them but... I'd be OK if they were more than...
Agreed!
Though I wouldn't mind hearing a few more Teknes Playtest veterans chiming in here and possibly confirming all this or offering differing views/opinions too! :)
Well, hopefully the rules aren't set in stone yet, and there's still time to listen to feedback/playtesters/etc.
Very helpful - thanks!
Yikes!
I guess it is a good thing I like the looks of the models for this faction.
I'm hoping that it isn't as bad as all this though too, of course! :)
No sign at GEN CON is...not a good sign! :(
So... just how did the demo day go?
How did the game play go?
Is this a great game (I HOPE!)?
As an old fan of Confrontation (you know, the REAL version), I'd love for an update of some sort on this thing...
Anything at all, really!
Please? :)
Sorry for coming late to this party, but...
Can anyone help me get one of the Limited Edition Celia sculpts?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
