Pathfinder Battles—Deadly Foes

Hoping this is going to come close to the last set. Very encouraged with direction of this mini line. I would love to see Geniekin (there just aren't minis for these), dungeon dressing and well...more harlots.

I hope we'll have more info about this set soon!..

Yes, Erik you have been skipping previes for 2 weeks.
Enough with the lazyness. ;-)

Marko, it's ERIK, not ERIC.

Oops, you're right. Thx, Gorbacz.

Sure no probs. Everybody is mispronouncing Erik Monna's name so often, it has become a running joke.

I hope and think we get a name for this on friday.

As with all updates, we will get one "soon."

How soon is now? ;-)

I think we passed it.

No sir? I didn't catch you playing with your minis [dolls] again.

We should know more in 13 hours...

GOOD!

*looks around warily*

I hope we will get a Woodlands theme one day. Plant and fey creatures. I suspect some occult minis will make an appearance.

I'd love this. Also my wife just yelled "YES. Make that!" from downstairs when I mentioned it. So that's 3 for, 0 against!

Make it so!

It would appear that Icv2.com had revealed the name and incentives, as well as the release date - October!?

Here's the ICv2 article for those who want spoilers.

Damn!
So i guess we are gonna get an article tomorrow?!

That sounds very good, but it should come out in july (latest august) not october.
It isn't called "Summer Relase" for nothing.
The case incentives (if true) are well chosen, even if not the ones that most people wanted but i imagine they will appeal to most buyers/collectors.

From the art i recognize:

A shame that another site has spoiled the surprize but that is what happens when there is no Pathfinder Battles preview for 4 weeks...

You should probably spoiler that. ^_^

This is a wizkids product (despite how closely they work with Erik). Personally, I don't think them making an upcoming product announcement is unreasonable.

I am more interested in the listed case incentive...

Tasty! I'll definitely be picking up a few of those :-)

I haven't yet decided how I feel about that...

That said, I'm excited for the idea itself, and I can't wait to see how it's used in future releases. ^_^

SWEET!!!!!

I'mma buy a case! I'mma buy a case!

Maybe. Gotta see what the whole set is.

** spoiler omitted **

It could be that, actually. Good call! ^_^

I think the blue and white guy is a

That's pretty nifty!

It definitely is - that's the art they've used for it both times. ^_^

I've been waiting for that one for a long time - I hope they can do it justice!

Definitely buying a case. What I could really use is

Heck, if we're shooting for that sort of thing:

Does that show up in a Pathfinder Module? :)

Not yet. But we can always hope...

:D

Does that show up in a Pathfinder Module? :)

At least three. ^_^

*checks PDF copies*

Bravo! I had forgotten about those! :D

I see Paizo removed the preorder option as well as the "expected july" text.

That means october is probably accurate.

So please remove the summer release and "coming soon" text too.

9 months between sets is just too long.

Even hardcore pathfinder battles addicts (like me) need to look to the D&D Monster Menagerie set in april to pass the time, which is a little sad.
And after i have a case of those, i still will have to wait 6 months?

I hope we get a boxed set or 2 in between...

I'm glad to have a bit of a delay. The schedule was draining my wallet dry.

I wouldn't mind a boxed set or two, though. ^_^

*GLEE*

Yeah, I need one of those, like right now.

Bricks containing 8 boosters (32 figures total)

Cases containing 3 bricks (128 figures total)

The math seems off here. Should it be 4 bricks to a case like the other sets, or 96 figures to a case for three 32-figure bricks? Or something else?

I believe that this was a typo and should really read "4 bricks" instead of "3 bricks". If you look at all other previous Battle Case releases, they are always 4 bricks to a case. Being the weekend, it will be more than likely somebody will correct this mistake early next week when they return to work.

I just want to see the hobgoblins and the monstrous Giants - please let it be an ash giant or eve enter a shadow giant! Oh and it's definitely a doppelgänger, matches some artwork perfectly. I'm extremely curious about what the dressing theme will be, I know there's been speculation about traps.

Traps seem very likely as they are part of the unpainted line in Quartal 4 of 2016.

The unpainted line seems to have some all new sculpts as well as some old ones.

So i guess we could get the 5 dressing pieces from Dungeons Deep, the 6 from The Rusty Dragon Inn, the 6 from Deadly Foes as well as some brand new ones!

And in orange-brown a lot of these work without needing to paint them further!

Is it Friday yet? (waiting for/hoping for another update)

New release date is november 2016.

Where is that stated? The case in my shopping cart still says October.

The latest minis-preview blog.

I just preordered my case. Oct/Nov, doesn't matter too much. Seeing how last one sold out so quickly I wanted to get order in early.

The Rusty Dragon Inn has been reprinted by Wizkids.
But i certainly agree with the decision, it is shaping up to be the greatest set yet in my opinion.
As soon as the Diamond Previews for november is out (august 31st i think), i will pre-order a case and two incentive sets (if i can get them).
Then, being in europe, i have to wait till december before i get it.

Never before has a set eliminated so many creatures from my most wanted list!

This should be in the new Diamond Previews from today. :-)

Release date seems to be wednesday, november 23rd in the USA & Canada.

10 weeks to go!
