Don't want to scare you! I just wished I knew that going in to temper my expectations. Just be aware that White Wizard Games has a tendency to miss their Kickstarter deadlines, and don't expect "exciting updates" (if you look at Sorcerer and Star Realms Frontiers, they don't tend to offer many card previews or developer diaries). Star Realms Frontiers was my first kickstarter, and I only had a vague idea of what to expect. My only regret is that because of how long Star Realms Frontiers took to ship, I had already found other games to play, and have barely gotten any use of the Hero Realms Promos. Also, because Hero Realms gets more "campaign" type expansions, the new additions to the market is more limited compared to the Star Realms type expansions, where almost every product adds significantly to the available card pool. Granted, 8 of the promos are tokens, which devalue it a bit, so basically, you're looking at an extra $5-8 dollars on top of a normal asking price. Roughly speaking, their expansion boosters are usually 12 cards for $5. Personally, I bought it during the Star Realms Frontiers KS because I wanted everything. Compared to Star Realms, Star Realms had their promo pack 1 released to stores within about a year, while Hero Realms never got that promo pack released, and instead, has been combined with the stretchgoals as a pack offered during kickstarters). That said, there's no guarantee, and with hero realms specifically, they never released "promo pack 1" to stores (the original kickstarter had a 12 card promo pack, and then there were around 23 cards unlocked by stretchgoals. So there is definitely precedence for them coming to retailers cheaper than $20. Also, some Star Realms Promos from the first kickstarter have made it to retailers (Mercenary Cruiser if memory serves was added to the first Gambit pack). So, on the one had, Unifiedshoe is correct: for example, some of the KS promo cards from EPIC have made it to retailers. r/tabletopgamedesign - Designer's subreddit.r/boardgameexchange - selling/buying/trading games.Game of the Week Calendar Related Sites & Subreddits The simplest use is to bold game names in your comment and add " /u/r2d8 getinfo" at the end of the post, but this post/sub has other features identified.
