hm...

Dahark:
Das wäre sehr bedauerlich. Die Spiele von Nexus haben mir zumeist ganz gut gefallen.  :(

Es gab zwar auch verhältnismäßig viele \"Gurken\" aber ich habe die Jungs trotzdem immer als einen gesunden italienischen FFG/Heidelberger Ableger angesehen.

Ah, gerade noch folgendes Zitat entdeckt:


--- Zitat ---Roberto Di Meglio

I won\'t comment about the financial status of NG International.

However, I can confirm that I have now left the company - last week, to be exact, after resigning on june 28th with a 30-days notice, the same day that the last two employees of the company were fired.

I just want to say that the problems were not related to the results of our latest US releases without a partner - Whitechapel was great, selling out in 2 months, and while neither Magestorm or Dakota were huge successes, they did fine from a financial point of view.

As it happens, games are tougher than companies, so I am sure that any good game which was in Nexus\' catalog will show up again somewhere else, sooner or later!

Thanks to everybody who had nice words for us.

Irgendwie hats da auch mit der Vermarktung gehapert - ständig war das Zeug ausverkauft und nicht mehr zu bekommen. Wings of War ist eine wahrhaftige Geheimwaffe zum Anfixen von bisher tabletopfremden Leuten.  :)

AndréM:
Ich denke WoW und HdR wird sich schon eine andere Firma krallen, dafür sind es einfach zu gute etablierte Systeme, als dass man sie verfallen lassen kann.

Ares Games is a new Italian publisher that will debut in 2011 with a second edition of War of the Ring, the highly acclaimed board game from designers Roberto Di Meglio, Francesco Nepitello and Marco Maggi.

In a press release announcing the acquisition of rights from Sophisticated Games to publish the title, Christoph Cianci, CEO of Ares Games, said, \"We are proud to be able to bring back to the international gaming market a prestigious game like War of the Ring. The game has been out of the market for a long time and there is a big anticipation for this second edition, which we forecast to release within the end of this year.\" The second edition of War of the Ring will appear in English in Q4 2011, with editions in other languages planned for release in Q2 2012.

This edition of War of the Ring will use the original illustrations from John Howe, but in a new graphic design with larger tarot-sized cards and a revised rulebook \"with changes to some key game elements to make it even more balanced and engaging,\" according to the press release.
