Current Heroes of North Africa Status?

[Cottonbaler]

David and Jeff,

Congratulations on moving out the most recent re-packagings/re-releases. I understand you are busy with this but am curious as to the status of HoNA now that we are coming to the end of the first month of 2016. Would you please update this project? When might we expect its release (ballpark: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Qtrs of 2016 or later -- realize a more definite time-frame is problematic)? Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

My best guess is by 2QT, not a promise but what we think at this time is possible. Some of the counter art work is being done. Here is some of the graphics from the game.

Ah an Italian Army Chaplin I don't recall seeing this counter before on any of the previews (but I could have missed it I'm getting older!). All armies had religious staff good to see this!

 

[Captain Darling]

Forgot to mention I'm really hanging out for this game...get a wriggle on!

Just wondering if there are any recent updates on Heroes of North Africa?

 

[David Heath]

Hello Captain Darling,

We are getting ready to start printing and we should have some pictures soon.

[Captain Darling]

[Cottonbaler]

Hello Captain Darling,

We are getting ready to start printing and we should have some pictures soon.

David

No,no,no....this just wont do. You're supposed to say "Hello Darling" with disdain and loathing in your best Blackadder accent .

Great news on the game though!

 

[Captain Darling]

I have a particularly dangerous assignment for you to carry out 'The Plodder', Lord Melchett wishes to run through the details of it with you...

 

[The Plodder]

Only as long as it's a pilot in Lord Flashheart's squadron:
"Treat your kite like a women, get into her twice a day and take her to heaven and back! Woof!"

 

[Captain Darling]

Ah the Twenty Minuters eh! Just remember don't get shot down behind the Hun's lines..

"the Teutonic reputation for brutality is well-founded: their operas last three or four days; and they have no word for `fluffy’."

This conversation can only spiral downwards hahahahahaha

So I see this was meant to start printing end of April, start of May.
Has it been printed and shipped, I have a pre order in but have had no email

 

[David Heath]

Mark,

It was delayed in getting printed and is so now. No orders for this game have been shipped yet.

[Captain Darling]

Hold on...did David just say...Heroes of North Africa is being printed as I type!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Friggen Hell that's big news were's the post dedicated to this saying 'Hi All Heroes of North Africa is being printed RIGHT NOW!' highlighted with bright lights...

"Arrrgh!"...that's the sound of me in my excitement attempting a cart wheel, failing miserably and injuring myself in the process.

WooHoo

 

[Ty Snouffer]

Will this version have a 3" box?

 

[David Heath]

Yes, the counters are at the printers for review, and it will have a 3" box.
