Monolith Talk Batman - Learn About Gameplay & More

58 Comments

We got to sit down with Monolith and discuss the new Batman Board Game which is coming to Kickstarter next year.

The game not only features some great looking models but also an upgrade on the systems you'll be familiar with from Conan.

We're excited to see how the new Overlord Vs Overlord (or Overvillain?) stuff comes together in the new game.

Yep as I suspect it’ll explode and cost a pretty penny.
It’ll be a boutique game so to speak. But probably well worth it if you’re a Batman fan! 🙂

Totally agreed – this will be popular no matter the cost

I believe it’s advertising the upcoming Buffy: Legendary from Upper Deck.

I’ll keep an eye on Kickstarter. Does is carry DC’s blessing?

They’ll have had to approve everything so almost certainly.

Interesting. I wasn’t aware that it would be so similar to Conan. I am now more inclined to check out the KS next year!

I think I might house rule that recovery variation into Conan…

Thank you for interview. Was looking forward to this and the Joan of Arc one which I hope also will be shown. Very happy for this!

Hybrid plastic miniatures, puzzles, skirmish + adventure mode and overlord board — yes!

Also, I assume you had the Mythic Battles Box in the background just to drive me crazy! LOL! I cannot wait for the release.

Also, February 2018 — My wallet says thank you!

Really interesting! I didn’t know the Conan that much but I can say that the system looks great, just need to see a gameplay of it to be 100% sold =P And the miniatures look so good =)

Looks great. Monolith was great with Conan. I always felt in the know about the schedule. Looking forward to seeing this next kickstarter come up.
