=> Official Update (Kickstarter #32 and Gamefound #11)

Highlights:

1. 
   Przemek Kozlowski finished more maps!
   
   New maps include a Reaver transport ship, a world with rivers of tar, a civilized area of Changeling space, container deployments on a moon somewhere, a dark moon of another world, a huge storage facility, a scrapyard ship and a facility with a long conveyor belt.Rogue Angels is not an exploration game, so to speak. But you will explore a lot of the galaxy when travelling to different points of conflict, collecting intel, stealing technology, and saving people from evil :)Angelita Ramos added more new faces for the story that includes about 100 faces for various encounters and quests. It will require several playthroughs to see them all and experience their stories! [see images at the top of this summary]
2. 
   The story is coming along nicely, but can’t share much of the planned consequences, dilemmas and special moments in order to keep it spoiler-free. But at the moment, the main campaign now consists of 975 pages. The PDF was created from over 48 THOUSAND cells of data! The story DOES depend upon your choices and mission outcomes. For example, the last mission in Chapter 5 has 16 different middle sections plus several different endings that set up for the final battle between good and evil in Chapter 6. It will be mathematically very unlikely that you will experience the same game twice, even if you try to :) Each player is one of SIXTEEN different heroes plus there are so many layers of choices both IN the missions and BETWEEN the missions that you (and your friends) will probably get very different experiences!

For the curious … I am in a Board Game Tournament here in Madison, WI this summer. I have to play 8 different games (on Tuesday evenings) and see how I do playing each game twice. There are about a dozen people in the tournament. The first Tuesday of June was Catan … I took 2nd and 4th :) This coming Tuesday is Machi Koro (and you can see that I played it over a dozen times trying to figure out a strategy:) Here are the games that I played last month:

In under two hours you can get a taste of 120 (or more by the time you might be reading this) short video clips! I created a one minute (often less) clip from the videos that were in the English language (because I lack the ability to learn other languages).

I provided a clickable list of all 120 of these video clips in reverse chronological order (the most recent at the top of the list).

Try watching a clip or two (or ten) and if that clip seems interesting to you, then I also provide a link to the full video right there in the list!

=> Official Update #29 (Kickstarter)
=> Official Update #8 (Gamefound)

Highlights:

1. It was a very productive month on all fronts! However, the delivery date may go from November to December due to the epic story scope!
2. 
   Przemek Kozlowski has provided new maps for the players to search, infiltrate, attack and/or perhaps destroy?

   

   Linggar Bramanty keeps up his great work as well, with some of the very last enemies [also see two at the top of this summary]:

   

   

   [Len’s Note: I noticed new “icons” on the standees – and Emil provided a nice brief explanation of them:]
   The X [damage dealt] is determined by the mission segment.
   Move (3) means it moves unhindered on the map. 
   Shield (2) means that it cannot be negated by abilities or attacks that usually penetrate shields. 
   A die means that you roll for the damage dealt in the attack (potential results 0/+1/+2 damage), in this case two dice.
   Laslo Hohenwald has completed two more figures, leaving us with only two to finish before they are all done:

Here is what the symbols mean on the Enemy Standees:

• Range 6 – Range is for attacks and also must be within Line of Sight from the dot in the center of the units location to the dot in the center of the target square
• Movement 5 – how many squares the unit can move – note that they stop moving once they are within attack range
• Damage 1 – how much damage (hits) the enemy deals on their attack
• Die Roll damage – roll one die and add the amount of damage rolled (+1 or +2)
• Squares Moved is the damage – the number of squares the unit moved prior to attacking is the number of damage dealt [ref: Mission C23 update 1]
• Damage Attack Twice – this enemy will attack twice (the & 1) for each attack on it’s turn [ref: Mission C22 update 2]
• Unblockable damage – damage dealt by this enemy cannot be blocked (deflected) by shields but immediately requires drawing damage cards
• Shields 1 – when attacked by a hero (or otherwise receiving damage) how much of the damage  (hits) is deflected (reduce the damage inflicted by the amount of shields). Note that shields will not block a hero attack that is Unblockable and all the hero attack gets through as hits
• Die Roll as Shield – roll one die to determine if a shield was operating (if the die rolled is a shield, then no damage is sustained) [ref: Mission C20A I update 2]
• Hit Points (Health) 4 – how much damage this enemy must take in order to be destroyed
