The Great War 1914-1918: Clash of Empires

[Typhrus]

I must have this game! How are we looking IL?

[Imperious Leader]

This year late. Not sure the date exactly.

@TheVenocWarlord:

Also, who are the grognads?

It’s a typo.  The correct word is grognard, a reference to the elite members of Napoleon’s Imperial Guard.

[Imperious Leader]

Typo, but the reference is for hardcore wargamers

Looks better with every update IL. Loving it can’t wait to buy.

[Imperious Leader]

OK thank you.

[Flashman]

What consistency of plastic is being used?  I’m a little worried about the German infantryman’s schwanzstucker breaking off in the heat of battle.

The entrenched German looks more like an Australian.

Is the fact that the French infantryman is firing his rifle copied from the A&A version or is this just an amazing coincidence?

[Imperious Leader]

You will not have issues in that regard. I hate crappy Xeno type cheap plastic like the next guy

[KjBush]

Any new news, dates, pics…?  Still very excited

I don’t want to sound like a broken record, I asked this same question a while back. :D

[Typhrus]

Me too, I am ready to pre-order as soon as I can IL.

[Imperious Leader]

Sorry no new news. I will call the producer and report.

[GoSanchez6]

Been a few weeks IL any news? I got 2 buddies I think who might want this one as well. Fall is right around the corner I know you said that wasn’t a for sure but heres to hoping.

[Imperious Leader]

This is looking as a 2014 release after phone conference with all involved.

That is what i wanted anyway…August 1 2014 release…100th Anniversary of Great War.

The sculpts are mostly done with exception to how the fortified infantry will look and one other sculpt.

Map tweeks are coming. We just take out time to make it perfect. No pressure.

[GoSanchez6]

Thanks for the info. I don’t want to have to wait but if we do and its done right. I can wait. Keep the info coming IL. I love seeing the pieces and map looks really cool.

[Tall Paul]

IL,

––That sounds good and I’ll keep this EXCELENT game on my radar.

Hey IL, is there any way you could possibly do a monthly update on this game? I know that I personally am always checking this thread to look for new information. I would guess that I am not the only individual doing this. :D I think that a monthly update would be awesome even if there is nothing new to say….just to keep us informed.

[Imperious Leader]

Ok the game will have at least 700 sculpts, and probably 750 'ish

It will most likely be ready in Spring.

The producer is going to China to finalize everything as all the sculpts are done and map is being reworked yet again. We are perfectionists and never satisfied.

Producer says pieces in at least 12 colors will be available BEFORE the game comes out. Personally, i want the game to sell first and pieces sold latter, but that’s what he wants, so it is.

The game has 9 colors of sculpts including neutrals.

That’s all i got now.

[KjBush]

Wait, so the pieces are being sold and the board will be sold after, is that what i’m getting? and thanks for the update :D

[KjBush]

It’s been a little over 2 months since anything has been posted on here. Anything new? and again, I hate to be the guy asking for info but this game has an extremely large amount of potential. I’m just really interested in where its going. :D

[Imperious Leader]

Release is most likely August 1st 2014. When i have info i will post.

I don’t fake fluff my threads to draw interest. The thing will sell itself.

The pieces will be ready to sell apparently the same time as the game comes out.
