Invaders from Afar?

Post by Direw0lf2 »

I apologize for being that guy, but I was curious if IfA was in progress. I love this game and the BGA implementation is awesome. I just miss the other factions/mats and would love to try a 7p game

Just voicing my two cents that I'd be excited if IFA were added. Its probably the most essential expansion of any game. I mean, the factions are right there on the board!

I haven't seen any response from the community. Maybe we need to give them more time.

This question has been asked before. At this time Stonemeir have not agreed to licence AFA to BGA as they don’t think doing so would help their sales.

I suspect the base game was added to generate sales for Expeditions sequel 😊

As answered somewhere else, the base game is not even released yet and is probably not close to do so (some things are still WIP).

It's all up to bga developers, i've asked Jamey Stegmaier on the Scythe official page (right now it's the 9th answer if you scroll down).

Not yet. It will surely come at some points but usually it's used to regain some audience so dont expect it in the next couple of months i would say. Maybe at the end of the year for christmas, that could be a nice christmas present :)

Maybe you could implement a two-step solution. First introducing the other 2 player mats to add variety to the game (which is very low right now, taking into account the two banned combinations); this would be easy from a tecnical point of view (no new mech/faction abilities to implement). Second adding the full invaders from afar package.
