The Kickstarter is close to ending. All the stretch goals have been revealed. So out of everything that comes with it, what are you most excited for?
im really excited for the 11 new heroes. I love new heroes and figuring out how its deck works. I'm also excited for the big box so I won't have three-four separate boxes.
I'm most excited for Benchmark. Since obviously after Guise he will be will what all other heroes are measured against.
I'm most excited about the mission decks and seeing how they take the game to another epic level of play!
I most excited for the new playstyle - specifically figuring out (after everything comes out) how existing villains fit into that structure or how the mission deck can be adapted/modded to other gameplay
I'm excited to see all the new art. Can't wait to see all the cool pictures of every hero coming together in different combinations, the end to storylines, new flavor text, etc.
Big box. Comic! La Comodora.
1)Definitely the 11 heroes, particularly Lifeline, Benchmark, Idealist and Writhe
2)The mission deck, especially the new allies and upgrades you can get
the heroes! La Comodora, Benchmark, and [SUPER SENTAI] Idealist especially!
EVERYTHING
EVERYTHINGER!!!
Akash'Thriya.
Comic and environments as well as all foil heroes with new art!
The 11 new heroes and getting all the variants.
Trying out new heroes is always my favorite part of an expansion (except Villains of the Multiverse, for obvious reasons). There's no particular hero I'm looking forward to the most, but with 11 new ones coming to us and a bunch of extra promos, I think it's safe to say that Oblivaeon will make me very happy in the end.
If I had to pick just one hero deck I'm most excited to play with, I think it'd be Luminary- mad scientists are always fun, and it's why Tachyon is one of my favorite heroes. Yes, I consider her a mad scientist, no, mad does not necessarily mean evil- my favorite example of any mad scientist is actually not a villain at all, but rather Doc Brown from Back to the Future.
Parse promo. Also Skyscraper promo. Everything else is great, but not necessary :-)
I'm right up there with everyone else about being excited for everything. I'm also going to get the large villain cards, guise, choke point, wager master, and celestial tribunal maybe miss information too, which I was holding back on getting because I was runnin out of room in just two boxes. The big box takes that excuse away. Lol.
OblivAeon itself, and how he can be fought.
Playing Luminary and knocking out Legacy just before finishing the villain off.... then EVIL LAUGH!
Edit: Sorry but before Sentinels my favorite game was Diplomacy (a good change, I've lost much fewer friends to Sentinels).... but sometime a good backstab is just too much fun!
Super excited for the Harpy and the Void Guard (esp Writhe.)
A little excited for all the story in the OblivAeon game, but I already know that we won't play that as often as we play the regular villains. Still...with 11 new heroes, two environments, and all the promos, this campaign would be worth it for me if we weren't getting any new villains to face!
I can't narrow it down to a specific thing, because there is so much to look forward to.
I'm also in the everything camp.
If, however, you forced me to choose at bazooka-point, I would say the Ra Promo.
Oh, man where to begin?
Harpy and a "full" 5 man Nightwatch team. This just screams fun.
The Mission deck and what we hope it contains. The Gate heroes, Ennead members, nifty new gear?!?! Who knows what fun it holds!!!
11 new heroes. For me heroes are the meat and potatoes to any Sentinels product, this is where the fun is had. There will be so much to do with them even outside "Oblivaeon mode." Versus evil self grudge matches, new team themes, Void Guard teamed with the Southwest Sentinels. This is just going to be so much fun! Add the promos with this point. New Omnitron X and Skyscraper. New Visionary and Ra. New Prime Wardens and Freedom Five. So much nifty.
Oddly I'm also excited that this is the end. It's bittersweet, but it also opens up new avenues. Greater Than Games can dedicate more energy to it's next big project and it's other Sentinels stuff. Fan made stuff will be able to be talked about somewhere (maybe even here.) Massive speculation and hopefully official answers to our outstanding questions.
The comic. <3 I mean, everything really, but the comic most of all! I love the F4 Annual, so it'll be wonderful to have something of decent length again.
I am excited for the promos. I can't wait to see all the interactions and new ways to play. Believe it or not Legacy is very high on my list of promos I am excited about.
I'm most excited about finally getting a physical copy of the game. :B
I mean, the thing I'm MOST excited for is the RPG, but since that's not a part of this Kickstarter...
I'll have to go with the new game mode. Seeing all of these familiar components interlock in new and exciting ways is always cool. Of the new heroes, it'd be Akash'Thriya.
Word.
And the new Cap’n Cosmic and La Commodora.
All of the new art.
Seriously, my favorite thing in every expansion has been opening the new decks and seeing the art of new encounters, new characters, all of it.
I'll be real I pretty much exlusively play as female heroes so Lumary variant, Idealist, La Comorda, the Harpy, and Akash are all pretty exciting for me to give a go and see if I can find a new staple.
La Comadora and Luminary as heroes go, Omnitron-U and the new Captain Cosmic promo (those are two of my favourte heroes), and the comic.
The new heroes, especially Writhe, Akash’thriya and Benchmark. Also all the promo’s. I never played a variant hero and am curious how much it changes the gameplay.
it varies from hero to hero. some heroes wouldn't normally use their innate power a ton, so a variant might not have a big impact – vanilla Ra and current variant Ra games don't feel very different for me. other heroes use their innate almost every turn and any pertubation has enormous effect – Dad-Legacy and Kid- or PopPop-Legacy or the Scholars come to mind. the best variants really do almost feel like a completely new hero.
Here's a pretty solid write-up of the promos and how they change gameplay:
