In the latest BattleLore Designer Update over on Fantasy Flight’s website, FFG’s Jason Steinhurst had this to say:
Yes, the Heroes expansion does exist, and at the present time, it is right in the midst of the development process. That means it’s currently in the middle of being cooked; we are seasoning it to taste and trying to get the recipe just right. I know you’ve been waiting for this expansion for quite a while now, but believe me when I say it will be worth it. Spring 2009 will be a great time to be a BattleLore fan.
Steinhurst also made mention of other “already started, but as of yet incomplete, projects” for BattleLore that FFG gained in its acquisition of the product line from Days of Wonder. Perhaps other nifty expansions will be along next year as well.
I, for one, am starting to save my spare change now. Lets just hope that FFG can make their scheduled date… (I know… I know… one can hope can’t they?)
