Mutant Chronicles mutates

Fantasy Flight announced that all products in the Mutant Chronicles Collectible Miniatures Game will now be released in a non-random window box format. These products should be available in shops in the first week of August.

There goes the C in the CMG (Collectible miniatures game).

The initial set of the Mutant Chronicles CMG will turn into 14 different products, released over about 10-12
weeks, each containing between 3-4 figures with a price of $19.95.

I always found the collectible part of games a little like saying “Well, if you’ve got lots of cash you’ve got a better game”, it’s nice seeing companies trying to set a standard level of play for all players.

Also with collectible games there is a tendecy to have a lot of suboptimal product just to allow rares mega-rares and stuff, this way even the game designers can stop having to put out crap and concentrate on high level components.

This change makes me want to try Mutant chronicles to see what’s the deal :p

Another game I’m aching to try is War of the Ring I was even waiting for the Deluxe edition to get it, but turns out the Deluxe edition isn’t just a revising of the game but an ultra pimped up version that will go for big bucks so no Deluxe version for me :(
