Twelve Elements Of War Heading Back To Kickstarter!
May 1, 2014 by brennon
Twelve Elements Of War from Sword & Board Games is heading back to Kickstarter on June 1st 2014! The campaign ran out of a little bit of steam last time around but they are back stronger than ever this year.
The countdown is on and just before the Kickstarter launches they are going to have the rulebook available for digital download on their webstore so you can see what you think of the rules before you pledge.
As you might remember they had bunches of great looking miniatures lined up but it just didn't have the power to surge forward for the remaining weeks and it was competing with a whole bunch of other Kickstarters at the time. I know I want to see the Mining Guild make it to the tabletop if nothing else!
Did you pledge last time?

Look forward to it, where in there last time around … so they might see me again
Going to to back this again, looking forward to it.
That ogre fellow is outstanding! I’d support the cause just for him.
I backed this last time around and I might be back. It will ultimately depend on the rules, which thankfully will be available before or around the KS. It was the one aspect that really made me hesitant especially after backing Warzone. (I do not like the final rules for that game at all.)
I think the rules have to be bought to be able to download them.
Nope I’m wrong just thought I saw that in there news letter but I’m wrong
No I was right the first time and wrong the second time lol.
this is off there website
“Secondly, a lot of you have said you would like the option of a digital version of the Twelve Elements of War core rules. So, after much discussion and thought we will be making a digital version of the rules for peoples to purchase from our website store. We estimate this will be available before the Kickstarter campaign. This is a good option for those overseas who want to avoid postal costs.”
So you do have to buy there book to see the rules….
If it is digital it probably won’t be very expensive. True it doesn’t fully take the sting out of having to fork over some money but it may be a small price to pay (no pun intended) to make sure you want to throw a barrel full of cash at a KS.
Ideally it would be nice if they have free quick-start rules available so that you can get a feeling of the core mechanics first. It was the quickstart rules for WWX that helped tip my decision to start giving the game a try.
Oh and that is a mining guild male troll not an ogre just so you know..
Don’t care. He’s fabulous. He will be what I make him in my own game systems. Depends on how tall he is.
I like the overall idea that all the games races are active in each faction just for different reasons.
I have no problem with buying the rules, as they put work in it and shouldn’t give that work away for free.
I am glad that I have an option to buy on PDF and can avoid postage from Australia to europe.
