… Play Heavenly Games
I think this is the first video playthrough of the Print N Play plus he does a fine job explaining the game as he goes! Thank you Out of the Box!
This video also demonstrates the vast amount of extra work that Emil did to put together a Print N Play system that actually has it’s own book, enemy system, and adjusted rules! Wow! And the game looks great even from a Print N Play! Good Video! Good job creating the Print N Play Emil!

This will not affect anyone who has already pledged using the Stretch Pay system.
Currently, Stretch Pay is configured to split the payment into six payments of €19.50. On February 15, 2025, this will change to split the payment into four payments of €29.25.
These are the notes that accompanied this change:
Notice that there are less than 300 copies of the game left in the manufacturing order that Emil has set up, so if you have been waiting to pledge (ie, order) your copy of Rogue Angels, better do it soon! :)
Update Aug 9 2026 for final card
Rogue Angels is such an interesting game from so many different aspects. One of those aspects is the interesting variety of unique action cards for the heroes, and Gia has a few of those VERY interesting cards, including Blade Flurry:
Gia will deal one damage to an adjacent enemy and then move one square to begin the action for this card. Then she can continue to move forward (or even back and forth) while repeating the damage / move process for each +1 and +2 rolled on the three dice. PLUS if you had used the red boost (+1 damage) she will deal 2 damage each time instead of 1. And note that rolling a foot (move) icon on the die also allows her a move that can be before after or during the card action (of damage then move 1 square).
Note: if you roll a +1/move the +1 can be used to repeat the action on the card (damage then move) which is a bit better than just 1 move via the foot (move) icon on the die.
Remember: If your dice roll is “bad”, you can always chose one (or more) of the dice to reroll one at a time spending 1 yellow focus each time (do this one at a time to see how your rerolls go). And it is worth noting that Gia has the highest reroll capacity of all the heroes as you can see from her character sheet (the yellow circle icons are to track rerolls):
And once in a while (well, actually quite often) you can maneuver Gia to be in a perfect position to damage (or even take out) two enemies in one action of Blade Flurry! This happened in the mission I just successfully completed (C3).
An integral part of Rogue Angels is hacking a terminal or interacting with locked doors to break into the room. This is done using interact tokens in a draw bag. Often you will encounter a protected computer terminal or locked door. You need to interact with them (ie, “hack” them) by randomly drawing an interact token from a draw bag. You need three of the same color to complete your “hack”. There are three colors (purple, blue and red) plus white (which is wild). The final game will have these custom tokens to shake in the bag:
Unfortunately my prototype copy did not have these cool interact tokens. So I got some thick acrylic padlock tokens from The Game Crafter and they have been totally enjoyable:
They make a nice clanking sound when I shake them in the draw bag!
Available for about 18 cents each from The Game Crafter (you need 8 blue, 8 purple, 8 red and 4 white):

Highlights:
[It was sad to hear that Emil and his family were sick for the first three weeks of January]
All maps, cards and dossiers are ready for manufacturing. Estimated delivery date is May 2025.
Przemek Kozlowski has finished the last maps for Rogue Angels. While I am very happy about that and excited to move forward, it also made me a bit sad that our four years of cooperation has come to an end.
Emil has been quite busy! He gave me a peak at the final (almost?) action cards and I am comparing them, one by one, to see which ones he tweaked (to balance the game even more). I won’t mention the special “locked” cards that each hero has, so this should not be spoilers for you unless you don’t want to know about the cards until you get the game.
Actually, if you haven’t played the game yet, you can ignore this article :) HOWEVER … if you have a prototype, PDFs of the changed cards are at the end of this article.

I can’t take credit for the idea (I remember reading about it somewhere a few months ago) but I am trying it out now!
I bought a bag of 100 thin red Lego®* Plates and will be placing them on top of the “walls” on the maps. This will add a bit of realism to the maps where the walls actually come up off the map (via the Lego® plates). Here is what the first mission’s first map looks like as I set it up:
This makes the walls OBVIOUS plus more realistic since they are actually raised up off the printed page! You may already have bags of Lego® pieces that you can use for this (they do not have to be red you know). However, if you need to purchase them, this is the source that I used:
=> The Lego Ladies (100 red plates)
They also have them available in packs of 100 white or 100 black.
Note from the Lego website: If the LEGO trademark is used at all, it should always be used as an adjective, not as a noun. For example, say “MODELS BUILT OF LEGO BRICKS”. Never say “MODELS BUILT OF LEGOs” [and]… the LEGO trademark should always appear with a ® symbol each time it is used.

Highlights:
Here are the top 25 (there are more that I played only 3 times or less not shown, plus a couple other slight adjustments):
Nice to see Rogue Angels up in the top three games of the year for me!
Note: RUMIS is the game played 8 times that is hard to tell what it is. The game is quite fun as each player tries to add their cubes or other 3D shapes onto the board, but only building to a certain level / height.
Yesterday Emil commented in a forum that there were only 300+ copies of the game left and that he expected them to sell out over the holidays.
So……… if you are interested in this game, you should go pledge for it now before they are sold out.

Update December 31, 2024: About 270 copies are available before it is sold out.
