HeroScape Shelved by Avalon Hill in Official Statement - HasLab Crowdfunding Campaign Fails to Fund
Always Board Never Boring takes a moment to cover the failed HeroScape HasLab crowdfunding campaign from Avalon Hill and Hasbro. In this video, he briefly covers how the campaign ended, talks about some of the common complaints about the product Avalon Hill were offering, ponders prepainted miniatures, and finally covers the official statement from Avalon Hill regarding the future of the game.
ABNB spends some time in this video sharing his thoughts on various aspects of the campaign, covering a lot of complaints and issues that have probably been discussed exhaustively at this point, so if you want to skip through the video here are some time stamps:
