CMON's SDCC Exclusives: A Betrayal to Loyal Fans and Backers?

Image
In recent years, CMON has built a reputation for creating some of the most beloved board games in the industry. Titles like Zombicide , Dune , Cyberpunk 2077 , Cthulhu: Death May Die , Arcadia Quest and Marvel United have garnered a dedicated fanbase, many of whom have supported these games through Kickstarter campaigns and retail purchases. However, CMON's recent decision to make exclusive content for these games available only at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) has sparked significant outrage among its loyal supporters. The Exclusivity Issue At the heart of the controversy are the exclusive expansions and content for Zombicide: White Death, Cthulhu: Death May Die, and Marvel United. These exclusives include: Zombicide: White Death TMNT Expansion: Featuring comics and Rocksteady and Bebop miniatures for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles expansion. This expansion is only available at SDCC, but was highly requested by backers during the entire campaign. Godzilla Expansion for Cthulhu: D

Maul Peak Kickstarter Preview Gameplay & First Impressions


Live 2-player playthrough and preview of the player vs player game Maul Peak by Pencil First Games currently on Kickstarter.

About

BILLOWING SMOKE FROM THE NORTH - As battles wage through Skulk Hollow, a thick, dark, haze appears around Maul Peak. The smell of war wafts down through the valley as clouds of wrath engulf towns and villages. As fate spreads the smoke far and wide, destruction follows. A Foxen scout, their fastest, is hastily dispatched to learn more...

Maul Peak is a two-player, asymmetric, tactical combat game in which players take the roles of either a tribe of bears known as the Grizzard or a towering behemoth of a Guardian.

Maul Peak is a stand-alone sequel to the original Skulk Hollow, however all Guardians / Heroes can be pitted against each other. All new guardians work with the original Foxen Heroes & Map, Grizzar vs old Guardians, Grizzar vs new Guardians - you name it!

Combining the two games also allows up to 4 players to pit 2 guardians vs both Grizzar and Foxen heroes for Epic Battles.

  • One vs Many Asymmetric Combat creates a fresh, fun, 2-player experience.
  • Action takes place on the Board AND the Guardian. Not only does the battle occur on the Kingdom board, but the bear must traverse full size, Guardian gameboards. Each guardian has unique routes and abilities to stop the bears.
  • Dual Purpose Cards give players a wide range of movement and ability powers while keeping them quick to pick and easy to play.
  • Unique Grizzar heroes and Guardians creates a range of tactics and dynamics, adding depth and strategy that makes each game a new challenge.
