This week we spent many hours working on our foreign conventions schelude. In February we go to Nurmberg Toy Fair and in March we go to Modena Game Show. We will be presenting there our prototypes, we will meet our foregin partners and decide about our future releases. During Nurmberg we will have many buisness meetings, during Modena we concentrate on playing our prototypes with Italian gamers…

This week we’ve finished testing Steel Police. We and our testers played great number of games and our new army seems to be well balanced. It was damn hard and damn great experience. I will write a feuilleton about this and publish on my blog soon. Anyway, Steel Police is ready to go to production process (artwork, DTP, printing).

We also started negotiation with one of NS HEX fan possibility of publishing his army as a second Army Pack. As soon as we finish negotiations, we will announce details.

And, in term of fans – Oliver Graf – published unofficial but great FAQ for The New Era. You can find it here!

In terms of our new games – this week The New Era went up finishes on 979 place in BGG ranking and Pret-a-Porter on 842. If you like our games – rate them. It will help us.

Many things has happend this week in Portal. First of all – Gryphon sent New Era and Pret-a-Porter copies to reviewers in US. In a few weeks you’ll read new reviews of our games on BGG or other sites. Secondly, we are very close to finish balancing Steel Police. We have played more than 100 games of Neuroshima HEX in past couple of weeks and SteelPolice3 seems to be well balanced…

This week we were also negotiating French edition of Steel Police and we are happy to announce that IELLO will do this army pack with us. French players – in March you will play Steel Police! We hope you like it.

No decision about Steel Police from our other partners – you need to wait for good (or bad) news for a couple of days!

This week The New Era finishes on 1023 place in BGG ranking (so close to be one of 1000 best games!) and Pret-a-Porter on 883. If you like our games – rate them. It will help us.

2012 is Neuroshima HEX’s year

trzewik — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 11:27:10 +0000

In 2007 in Essen Neuroshima HEX began a gigantic international career. There was French edition and US edition of the game, and later we introduced local editons in Germany, Spain, Italy and Netherlands. We published two expansions: Babel13 and Duel and what’s more, we introduced Neuroshima HEX for IDevices – you can play it on Ipad, Ipod and Iphones. This year we want to celebrate the great time we had with Neuroshima HEX.

We declare 2012 Neuroshima HEX’s year in Portal! Prepare for many great news. First of all, in March we will publish the first of Army Pack’s for Neuroshima HEX! It will be a new army designed by Michał Oracz, called Steel Police. Few other Army Pack’s are also coming your way, we will introduce Neuroshima HEX for Android and we have one more great surprise-gift from Michał Oracz planned for Autumn. So please, stay tuned. We will have plenty of great news for you this year!
