Update and Triceratops
Permalink  

Greetings all,

First, let me apologize heartily for the ridiculous delays in getting Apocalype-D out the door. We here at the Goat are finding out the hard way how difficult it is to run a part time business when we all have jobs and families. Please know that we're working on it and ironing out some art details. With such a small operating budget things like art are VERY difficult to organize.

As promised, here's the stats for another dinosaur to keep you playing and expanding upon the demo rules (found in the GoatHerd Yahoo! group... for more info on this, check out our main website.

Triceratops

Size                              6

Move                           6

Close Combat              2D10+2

Target                          6+

Armor                          3+

Kill                               12+

Wounds                       4

 

 

Starting

Beast masters               6

 

TRAITS

        

Living

Instinct - Herd

Monstrous Beast

Trample

Untamable

 

Fierce Charge- Push back 4 after close combat resolved instead of 2.

 

Piercing/2- reduces armor save by 2. (Example- armor save 4+ becomes 6+).

 

Ceratopsian Shield- attacks originating from the front arc add +1 to target and kill.

 

The trike can be a devastating unit on the tabletop. He can add some hard charging punch to your line and can be fitted with a howda to carry his beastmasters.

 

Enjoy,

Jay

Just another quick update...

We've finished the layout on the first half of the book! The second half is in the works. After that it's editing and out the door.

My Son is now constantly asking me about this all the time. Any idea when it will ship?

Well, here's an much awaited update...

We recently had a manager meeting at Exploding Goat Games and we'vve made some fairly large decisions that have a big impact on some of our upcoming titles. DON'T WORRY. We're not killing anything in the pipleline, we're re-tasking our game systems. We've decided to move away from Battlefield Evolution as a core mechanic for any of our upcoming games and we're designing our own battle sized combat mechanic. This is an ambitious project, but we've got a whole bunch of very talented and experienced gamers and designers here that are going to task towards this goal.

Understanding that many of you have been eagerly awaiting Apocalypse-D as an Evo expansion, we certainly don't plan on leaving you high and dry. We're going to give everyone that wants it, everything we currently have for D, Evo-style... no charge. All you need to do is send an email to custserv@explodinggoatgames.com with "Dino Evo" in the title and we'll arrange getting you the digital files. This won't likely be something we can do in an email, since the files will likely be large and most email providers don't allow file attachments of that size. What we'll likely do is upload our files to our Goat MS Skydrive account and put requesting fans on the access list for that folder for a set period of time. This means you can download it at your leisure within that time frame (we'll send you an email regarding the specifics). 

For more specific details on the decision and this program, check out our main announcements thread on these forums.

Thanks guys,

Jay
