Drakespirit Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 So I saw that the swine-cursed have still not hit (after being pushed back a couple months). Do we know whats going on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codingCaptor Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have not found any official word on this. I've heard tale of a couple distributors saying it was pushed back a month, but nothing official since it was said they would be coming out at the end of February. I asked around the Wyrd staff at Adepticon, but all they knew is that the Swinecursed hadn't been released yet, not why. I continue to wait patiently.

the tick Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 The Wyrd staff didn't know why they've been delayed? That sounds really peculiar. I asked the same question on here at the end of February and the word then was that they were pushed back to release in March......which has obviously come and gone. It'd be real nice to here something. Models didn't pass quality control? Change to which of the original three would make it into the box of two? Last minute changes to the cards after some play testing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Yeah, it's kind of boooo situation. I placed the order for few things and the shop is holding up with the whole shipping as they can't get Swine Cursed anywhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the tick Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 They're now under the upcoming releases for May! ....?...! So I suppose I'll stop holding my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakespirit Posted April 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Well, we have an answer. Maybe Wyrd will let us know what changed and what the heck was going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question was most likely asked of the Design Team staff, who have very little to do with the production schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 I strongly believe that there should be a progressive metal band Drakespirit with an album called Swine-cursed in Limbo. That is my contribution. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eorek Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Have you guys seen that some box art contain a third swine cursed havr been popping up? Maybe box is delayed due to them adding another model to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right. A lot of online stores seem to be using the original box art. Maybe Wyrd had to have the boxes reprinted? They seem to have had some real bad luck sourcing card and deck printing lately. Maybe the Swinecursed box got dorked up too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 It's just a realy shame that they took out the best-looking one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilbleachman Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 My guess would be something along quality testing of sprues or miniatures. It's been a hassle with some kits in the past. I recall the giant viks and female TtB kit back in the day. We will just have to be patient and see how things go. Just regard it this way: they are saving one of the best models for last (same goes for banjonistas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folomo Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Why are Swine-cursed specially good with Wong? Is there some good synergy between glowy and them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wong's Glowy ability gives the magical condition to a unit, and his Ooooh Glowy upgrade gives buffs to models that have the Magical Condition. Before Swinecursed, this just meant that you picked one unit to be good, and if you brought the upgrade that unit got to be really good. Since wong was the only source of Magical. Now, however, Swine-cursed have Magical built in. So they're always decently good, but when Wong is the leader with the Oooh Glowy upgrade, they get a buff, in addition to the other unit that wong makes magical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
