Weekend Play Session - Recorded!

This weekend, my gamenight friends and I recorded a Play Session of Draconis Invasion, with some Wrath Cards and some Glory cards. We wanted to show you the feel of the Wrath and Glory game, plus we playthough some newer powers like the Champions and Invocation. 

You can watch our video here:

(pls forgive the shakey leg!)

Newly Unlocked Stretch Rewards 

1. UNLOCKED REWARD at $120,000

Now the Champion cards for the Glory pack will be upgraded to tiles. This feature will add to the quality and durability, but also make them stand out on the table from the other cards.

2. UNLOCKED REWARD at 1250 Backers

Another Bonus card is now included in the Glory pack. This adds a new end-game goal for points. This card will be illustrated by artist Jack Kaiser. 

3. UNLOCKED REWARD at 150 Facebook Image Likes

We created a game soundtrack, compiling epic battle music, to add to the game atmosphere. Try it out! I used this on the weekend and it definitely enhanced the fun and gameplay experience of Draconis Invasion.

Glory Expansion Features

Here is a short video explaining the Glory Expansion and the new features. Learn how this mini-expansion greatly enhances the game of Draconis Invasion with new strategic shifts and depth.

Next Stretch Goal To Unlock

We hope to bring on Guest Artist Mitch Mueller for another Champion card. What will the new Champion be? You can vote!

As we arrive to the final stage and the final boss level, we wanna extend our big thanks to all the backers. We literally couldn't do any of this without you.

Final Week - We want your feedback!
over 3 years ago – Fri, Aug 19, 2022 at 11:15:53 AM

The LAST DAYS are upon us! The final stretch and the final Stretch Rewards await! We are happy to have you all among our ranks as we charge toward the prize!

One of the great benefits of the Kickstarter community is that backers get to influence the creation of a product. We value the voices of our backers and today we want you to weigh in.

We have learned that we can increase the token sizes without a great increase on the production cost. So we are asking YOU what size you would like to see for the Metallic Power Tokens. If you have experience with similar minis and tokens, we want your ideas for good sizes for games.

Also, the main requests for color for the Metallic Power Tokens was Brass and Gunmetal. We want your feedback! Vote for TOKEN size and color.

Brass or Gunmetal?

We have another artist aboard with incredible skills. Our new Stretch Goal is new art for a Champion card by Mitch Mueller

Art samples by Mitch Mueller
New $130K Stretch Reward

The artist and our design team have narrowed it down to these classics: Paladin, Rogue, or Druid. Help us choose the CHAMPION character!

VOTE at the Boardgamegeek links here:

As we draw to the final days, here are some of the LOCKED goals that remain. Hoping more rewards will come!

We are very close to upgrading components tiles!
Almost there!

Over $100K and so many new cards!
over 3 years ago – Mon, Aug 08, 2022 at 04:36:10 PM

Greetings Brave Warriors!

Together, we have reached the midway point of this campaign. We are overjoyed to see this project at over $100,000 (Canadian) and so many Stretch Goals unlocked! Here is a summary of what is now included for all backers!

ALL these are unlocked for you!

We also unlocked the goal below, but we would love for you to click this link to BOOST our ranking on Kicktraq again. This helps the project get seen, thus helping you unlock new Stretch Goals.

With all this unlocked, the Glory Expansion now includes 6 Invocations, 13 Champions, 10 Bonus cards.

Updated card counts

1. For awhile we tested and considered having the Champion cards as chipboard tiles, as to help them stand out from the other cards. Now that we might reach $120K, it seems reasonable to make these unique playing pieces that way. Hopefully we reach that next goal! 

2. And if we hit 1250 Backers, we will unlock another Bonus card!

3. Help us spread the news by LIKING this Facebook post. As a reward we will make a fun fantasy battle soundtrack to enhance the gameplay atmosphere!

We still want your feedback on the color of the Tokens. Click here to choose between Gold, Brass, Silver, Copper, and Gunmetal. Right now it is a tight race between Brass and Gunmetal! Vote and be heard.

Choose a metallic color...

Also, if you haven't seen it yet, here is a factory sample of the Power Tokens (without metallic paint). I am impressed with how detailed the models turned out.

The First Update: The Battle Begins!!!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Jul 28, 2022 at 01:39:09 AM

Hello everyone! I am wowed by the response for this project! It has been a great 18 hours since launch. I went to bed (Indochine Timezone) and woke up amazed by the backers and comments. Thank you for joining us on this journey for Draconis Invasion. We are still at the start of the adventure. We hope to unlock and update more project rewards! 

Some people started off confused about the Earlybird. Basically, all pledges timestamped in the first 48 hours will receive the Dragon Tokens in their pledge. That means if you only get the Glory pack or you get the Collected Edition, you will receive these Tokens. So do not choose "GLORY Expansion w/ Dragon Tokens" for the first 48 hours. You can downgrade your pledge if you did this.

Help us spread the news of Wrath and Glory by LIKING this Facebook post. As a fun reward we will make a fantasy battle soundtrack to enhance your gameplay!

My friends and I love playing Draconis Invasion with a battle soundtrack. We wanna share this with you too!

Already you have unlocked all these rewards! And you are very close to the 1000 backer reward and $60K reward (Canadian currency).

Spot UV box design upgrade!
Unlocked Champion!
Another Unlocked Champion!
Yet Another Unlocked Champion!

We are super grateful and we hope for a fun ride together.  28 days to go!

For Glory!!!
