I watched the full video through once to make certain I understood it all and then played it through to guide me step by step through the first build. Your explanation made this all work smoothly! Thank you for the time and care that you put into this video. Setting a high bar for the industry with your campaign, production quality, and support!
So glad to hear that, Zach! Just trying to follow through on the promise of serving players a little differently. I very much appreciate your support.
I just assembled my game based on your video. You did an incredible job outlining and showing the steps involved. I can't express how incredible the game components are!
Thank you so much! It's really just what backers deserve to be able to have a positive experience with this game. Hope your assembly went well and you enjoy playing.
Good lord Chris! I have just finished unboxing and assembling everything. The amount of care and detail that went into everything shows a lot! It's simply such a treat to see everything come together. The production on the game is beyond anything I've backed before, considering how much this was, I'm surprised you are breaking even!
Can't wait to play this game with my partner! Kudos for the amazing campaign, I'm super impressed
Thank you so much, David! I really wanted to make this a special game for backers. I hope you enjoy playing with your partner. ☺
Bro - I've played over 1,000 games - this game is a joy to mess around with - such great thought into the magnetic features and my words in the box too... let's make sure we work together on the next one - I need this company in my life!
I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying it!
Thank you for taking the time to make a really well put together how to assemble video. I was way overwhelmed when the box first got here, but this made out everything together fun.
I'm glad to hear that this video helped and you had fun with the process!
Just finished putting together - any seasoned IKEA builder could do with ease! What amazing design work! I’m an instant fan of your company. When is your next project hitting kickstarter? Automatic buy!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the assembly process. Our next project will be an expansion to An Age Contrived, scheduled for Kickstarter around September 2024.
Just put mine together and packed it all up.
No issues at all.
This video was *incredibly* helpful and very well done (as are the components).
Excellent work!
Thank you so much! It's great to hear that it all went well. Hope you enjoy the game.
Amazing engineering and a wonderful video explaining the assembly. Thank you! My copy just arrived and I'm very excited to dig in and play.
Thank you!
Just assembled everything. Amazing what you achieved! I crowdfund a zillion games and this is by far the most impressive kickstarter. Very high expectations are fulfilled, as promised. Congratulations! Please teach other crowdfunding companies how to do this 😉
Thank you so much! I'm really glad that we ultimately met your expectations, especially since this project was quite ambitious.
It will be hard to teach other companies, given that we are busy working on more projects of our own. 😊
I am so hyped for this!! I have never seen mechanical metal parts taken to this level of design in board gaming (Apart from Return to the dark tower... that's another beast entirely).. I am loving this dedication to the tutorial! I am receiving VFI shipping updates, and should arrive today in Hong Kong !! Scheduled to table this on Sat already!
That's fantastic to hear! You will be one of the first people in the world to receive a final copy, and maybe _the first_ to play it. Wishing you an enjoyable session assembling your player boards and then an even better time playing with them.
😂
Hab heute auch mein Exemplar bekommen und zusammengebaut. Respekt an den Konstrukteur des Ganzen. Top Qualität der Komponenten und des Inlays
Vielen Dank! Gruß aus Kanada.
Man! This is pure gold!
Thank you, Flavio!
Thank you for the detailed and easy to follow instructions for how to assemble the metal trays! After building the first one, the other 4 were super simple to put together. I appreciate how well organized and simple the instructional video was!
Glad to hear it! Hope you enjoy playing with them.
Amazing production and wonderful video. Could listen to that voice for days. It made the setup so crystal clear. Well done
Thank you so much! Glad to hear that this video helped. I hope you enjoy the game. 😊
Awesome video, awesome components and awesome quality. Can't wait for my first game at the weekend!
Thank you! Hope your first play goes well.
Yassssss!! So excited to get this on my table!!
Thanks David!
This video was a HUGE help thanks for making it! Also little warning, if you are like me and like punching stuff out and getting started, you might want to watch this video all the way through first 😂.
I just wish all my extra cardboard and expansion had a home that wasnt a baggie. But overall everything fit including the expansion. Well done!
I'm glad to hear that this was useful to you! Hope you enjoy the game.
Thx you so much for this game.
the material is beautiful, the quality is perfect and the turnaround time was incredible. It's really great work, the only thing I haven't checked yet is the translation, but it looks very clean so far. and finally, this video is essential for properly assembling and storing. THANKS
I'm so glad to hear you've had a good experience with this game and project. Thank _you_ for choosing to support it!
Very good video. Many Thanks!
Our pleasure!
Just got my copy here in the Netherlands, took some time to assemble but it was fun and it was very easy after watching the video. Great dummy proof video, now I am looking forward to playing the game hopefully it is as awesome as the components! (IKEA should hire you to make some dummy prove assembly videos ;) )
Glad to hear that it all went smoothly! Hope you enjoy the game.
Man he hyped me more than i was. Excellent video. Btw Hello from Lebanon :)
Thank you! Hello back from Canada. ☺
What are the extended tabs on the left for? Looks like something connects to it.
They hold your two inactive Transmuter Tiles during play.
Well, the stickering part is already giving me heavy anxiety and it's still a month or so before my copy arrives
It's not too bad, and the sticker is the piece that matters the least in this whole assembly, since it's mostly covered during gameplay by your row of Transmuter Tiles. That said, each character does come with two stickers in the box, in case you are _really_ unhappy with the placement of one.
Use tweezers on either side to hold them while you align the sticker. I'm going to use the "columns" for alignment initially vs measuring 1mm from either side. lol
@@BellowsIntent Arrived this morning and managed to get that first one done with very little stress, excellent guide thank you. Look forward to getting it to the table!
Are you guys planning to release a how to play video with the up to date rules soon?
Yes, we hope that it will be online in the next few weeks. That said, the video from February 2023 is still 95% accurate.
Just got my copy. As I have not unboxed it yet, I have a question. Does the game come with complete cardboard components that I can play a game without assembling the metal parts?
If you have the Founder's Edition, then yes. If you have the Collector's Edition, then no.
Is there a guide on how to fit the regular version in the box?
There is not. We'll see about creating one and posting it on BGG.
so while not its intention....will the stronger springs allow me to....entertain myself at my opponents expense without risk of harm to the opponent or mechanical board? yes, im that guy lol.
also thanks Chris, been fun talking you in the comments and these look amazing
Mike, you can certainly use the stronger springs if you prefer them, and that will not risk damage to the player board. However, we cannot endorse firing energy tokens at your opponents.
Thank _you_ for your support on this project. We're excited to be getting your copy into your hands in a few short weeks.
thanks Chris! i appreciate the response as always. @@BellowsIntent
Will these player boards be available at some point in the future as an upgrade for the core set?
We evaluated that early on and decided not to offer the mechanical player boards as an upgrade to the Core Edition of An Age Contrived, at least not for the first printing. The main reasons are that (a) it would be an expensive upgrade to manufacture and sell and (b) the mechanical player boards will not fit in the box of the Core Edition, so would need their own storage solution.
It’s possible that will change if there is strong interest in such an upgrade after the game is released, in which case we would probably offer it as part of a new crowdfunding campaign.
This game will launch to the moon once more people see and hear about it - congrats dude!
how much does it weight with all the stuff ?
It is around 8 KG.
It would have been much better to have a slight recess and thin inlays, rather than stickers, as any gunpla builder could tell you, but this doesn't seem too bad.
You're right about that. We tried to use an inlay instead, but the requirements of the sliders made that impractical. The logic why will probably be apparent when examining these player boards in the flesh.
It was really difficult to get the sliders to slot into the top tray and then fold them together. Also, why does this video have so many ads?
That is indeed the most difficult part.
Unfortunately, we don't have any control over ads on CZcams, otherwise we would remove them from this video.
@@BellowsIntent You can turn off monetization [ads] for any videos you've already uploaded.
Go to CZcams Studio.
In the left menu, select Content.
Next to the relevant video, click Monetization .
Click Off in the monetization drop-down menu.
Click Save.
@@BellowsIntentJust as a thought if you break some of CZcams’s guidelines and get it demonetized it could work.
Hab jetzt die Anleitung mehrmals durchgelesen und muss sagen dass die für mich leider nicht gut geschrieben ist.
Abgesehen von ein paar Schreibfehlern ist nicht alles eindeutig. Schade
Mal demnächst schauen wie das Spiel selbst ist. Am besten erst im Solomodus.
