Hi all,
Modiphius is in the process of delivering the Discworld RPG Kickstarter to backers, and the retail version (which is different) is also now available at your local game shop.
They've just (today) put up preorders for the two upcoming board games via their store:
Readers Digested:
https://modiphius.net/pages/discworld-adventures#readersdigested
This is a retheme of Reiner Knizia's Blue Moon City - so with that pedigree, you know it's got good mechanisms behind it. Not sure how well it will translate to the Discworld theme, but we'll see. There's a standard and deluxe edition, with the deluxe edition coming bundled with a few expansions and some component upgrades. (The standard version still looks to have good components though)
Kill Sam Vimes:
https://modiphius.net/pages/discworld-adventures#killsamvimes
Brand new card game designed by Dom Westerland. (No you can not actually kill Vimes, you will always fail).
Sounds like it could be fun, and I just adore the artwork.
Yes, the games are not cheap. Yes, shipping to Australia is super expensive. But I am hoping these are going to be good, because I love board games and we've not had a Discworld game since Clacks over ten years ago.
