    Now that the things up
    1. The "main" elf is female, but still a sword + magic character. Also, all the characters have opposite gender figures
    2. Right on the money. Art style is at about the halfway point between HeroQuest Classic and Diablo
    2b. The cover art is a homage to the original art
    3. There are 2 dwarves
    4. ???. Games not out. The art style definitely feels more High Fantasy
    4b. Dread Warriors and Abominations replace Chaos Warriors and Fimirs.
    5. The preview cards didn't have names, but who knows about the rulebook. The only named character was named in OG heroquest, Sir Ragnar.

      I found the new art style to be a significant departure from the classic. Its much more like Warcraft. The dwarf for instance is nothing like the classic.

      Must play female elf & buy her the crossbow so she can be an archer to make Bardic happy.
      Now that the peasentry is out of the way, real masters of the game who want something new to play will choose the female dwarf.
      The female elf was technically available in the US back in the day with the elf quest pack & isn't really that new to the game. Although it was planned, they never got around to releasing a dwarf quest pack & thus we never had an official female dwarf before this edition. Playing the new female dwarf means having "more dwarfs" available & that is what would truly make Bardic happy. XD

      I really want them to print classic Hero Quest for the same reasons I enjoy them reprinting copy's of other games (like Monopoly, Super Mario, ECT.)
      There's now whole generations who haven't experienced the quest to save Sir. Ragner or fight Ulag simply because they no longer reproduce the game. If they don't reprint it, I still plan to help my nephew's & niece enjoy classic Hero Quest with my personal board (I'll likely be playing the evil wizard Morcer/Zorgon) but I'd rather it not have to remain a dated experience only brought to new generation by the few of us older people that still have the classic game. This game needs better preservation & I'm hoping whatever we get now will be a key stepping stone to making that happen.

    SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK!!!
    Although a Cracking Unboxing would be great, all the news on this re-release says they've kept it close to the original. Since most of the changes they've announced involve flash (figure quality and orientation) and a few steps toward IP security, I wouldn't see a NEED to change the basic game mechanics. I feel like it would be more of a Cracking Un-Re-Unboxing. But no one has the chops to do a comparison between the original and this corp-crowd-funded version than The Bard, and OH LOOK! There's a male AND female Dwarf available - there may be hope for your dream yet! Maybe if you pulled out some of that vintage HQ furniture... set up the privacy - I mean "Information" screen... give them a little time and, I don't know, maybe a lava lamp...
