What changes are there from Conan?
A seventh characteristic appears: intelligence, which will represent the ability to solve problems, hack computer equipment ...
Heroes' can now choose a Defense and Recovery action.
When "The Villain" (the Overlord in Conan) activates a unit, there is no restriction on movement being the first action.
Overlord units now have additional features like Manipulation or Intelligence.
Two new dice have evolved with a specific breakdown of successes to better represent certain actions.
And many other evolution!
Will there be any crossovers?
Other superheroes will not be in this game, due to the fact that "they" are SUPERHEROS. Superheros have super powers that would out balance the system of the game. Batman is a highly trained...man. Like his colleagues and some of his adversaries. So there will be no Justice League, sorry to say.
Conan, even with the same system, will not be tied into Batman. Even if Conan has crossed a lot of people in his career, it would be too far removed from the two universes. But nothing stops you from creating your own scenarios, if you own both games. It will, just not me one of the things that Monolith will attempt at this time. The Batman Universe is already a big one.
So, what will be in the box?
Like Conan, there will be 2 double sided boards with 4 different environments, 8 scenarios and more than 100 figures. This is the base box, with no KS exclusives or add-ons.
Will it be available in stores after the Kickstarter has finished?
A big no...Monolith have learnt from their Conan experience with distribution at reasonable prices, is not viable. But that is not stopping local stores from backing multiple copies of the game, and then selling them on.
And finally, the big questions.
When will the Kickstarter be coming?
As soon as Mythic Battles starts shipping, expect the KS to go live. This will give the team time to get a, "near to complete" version of the game, before it starts.
