Plus it was Bowie's birthday a couple of days ago (Jan 8) and today is the anniversary of his death (Jan 10, 2016), so for Bowie's sake let's be Heroes.
The Hero's Journey 2e

The Hero's Journey 1st edition was a delightful game. It was the perfect antidote for grim-dark murder hobo games that seem to be so popular. A nice cup of tea vs whatever they sell in the local run-down dive where characters are supposed to meet.
This new 2nd edition gets further away from it's S&W roots and that might be a good thing.
James Spahn has delivered when it comes to games, so I have expectations for this one.
What I loved about THJ1 was that the characters were the heroes, people doing good in the world. I think we need more of that.
Really looking forward to this one and I hope to see it in my local game store sometime.
Full-Color Custom Miniatures with Hero Forge 2.0

This one does not go live till next week, but you can bet it is going to break all sorts of records.
I was a proud backer of Hero Forge and I have enjoyed watching it grow over the years to be the standard by which I judge 3D printed minis. If they can do the color they are displaying above then this is the reason why Kickstarter exists.
I can't wait to see this. Will the minis be costly? Maybe, but I have been pleased with the prices on Hero Forge so far so I am expecting this will be similar.
If the timing is right I'll come back with a follow-up to this post with a color 3D Hero Forge mini of my Hero's Journey character!
