Adventures in the East Mark (Basic Retro Clone) Kickstarter

[Agamon]

I haven't gotten mine yet, or read the pdf closely enough, but apparently there's some translation anomalies in the rules. But hey, I have enough OSR clones, this one will stick out as the "interesting read".

Also, I was bit confused by the box size...until I looked at my board game shelf.

I can keep all my Euro games together!

Anyone know what happened with the license on this for the U.S.? Will they/have they made a conversion of the green box and blue box for this?

Supposedly Stephen Wieck and his Nocturnal Media picked up the license but that was 2 years ago and nothing, so I'm guessing it's dead.

Thanks! I will ask them for a status update

Apparently there are (or were) two different Wiecks and the one heading Nocturnal was Stewart, who apparently passed away last summer, and his widow now owns the company and Stephan is now acting as publisher.

So I guess that explains a lot.

Stewart had plans to pick up the next boxes in the series, but I've not heard any further updates since then: they're still in the process of fulfilling the other KSers that were pending, I think, for a little while.
