PC Game vs. Board game
While this is listed as a board game here at steam, is it really an RPG that is based on the board game or is the design based on the board game and will play more like a board game.

It shares the world and the lore with the board game, and expands/diverges from it in plenty of places, but plays and feels differently. Both modes - campaign and Conquest - are entirely different games than what you've seen in the board game version.

Out of curiosity, did your team make the board game as well? And where would I be able to get a copy of it?

We're working for the same company that made the board game and sometimes we're getting help from people who worked on the board game original but since it's, well, an entirely different thing (video games = different technological issues than board games) we're mostly a team of new people :)

I don't think it's currently possible to buy the board game - but check out its Kickstarter page for updates!

We certainly hope so! There are some proper names here and there but we do try to explain as much as possible (when it makes sense and fits the mood/tone) in the game :)

Sound really great! If your game is at least half as fun as the board games it should be a hit! The one question that remains: Are you also secretly working on a digital Etherfields game?

As a backer, I'd like to know if playing this game will spoil me from the board game version or if I can play this without being spoiled ?
Thanks !
