So remember a while back I said I was half ass making a board game that centered around orcs?

Well we got a lot of the mechanics worked out enough to make a first run half ass print of the cover art and the player board mat.

Remember that these are kids drawing practically because it doesnt make sense to put a lot of effort into something we are going to have to remake who knows how many times but since I am not able to make this stuff and my friend is this is what he came up with.




Its impossible for me to explain that I want uo orcs as the guys really not warhammer types and especially on first runs I would imagine its easy to figure out but being as I can do it I figured I would post here and see if anyone wanted to take a stab at a bit of cover art for one of my prints I make.

The games gonna cost me $50 just to make for myself as a first copy and I would personally love to have something more along that lines of what I like about uo and the future since BC and UO helped inspire this beginning creation. But either way no biggie, just remember not to judge me because of the gayness how this looks right now, I know its gay. Its not suppose to look cool, real art comes so much farther down the road than were I am at right now with this but I know we have some talented photo shop peeps here who could make this look not as gay and if anyone wants to have something to toy with have at it!

I know an art student that may like to take a stab at it. Ill run it by him.

Also..Just got through a few java classes, and have been looking for inspiration as to some simple (Code-wise) game to give a stab at slapping together.
If you think a JAVA version of this would be neat, lets chat. Cant promise a pro-production or anything, but I think a game of this type would be fun, and good practice.

we have been working on this again and its actually turned into a pretty fun game. we are still tweaking a lot of it but its a "screw your neighbor" type of game which i find immensely fun. best way to get ahold of me is via facebook btw.

yeah we actually know those guys! we get all the first and several later runs from game crafters, they recently changed their boxes and lay out and they look great! not just a white cardboard box when you get it all shipped to you.

On a side note, Dragon valley is a huge success and getting a ton of publicity and feedback. CW my friend and publisher of the game actually set up in their booth at gen con last year heres an interview some random guy posted. http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.thegamecrafter.com%2Fpos t%2F8477678486%2Fcw-karstens-is-exhibiting-at-our-booth-at-gen-con&h=pAQGKZUJ0AQFwVTnmf-rGTCWfqR9np23WYWNiDPBrRk28ew

Another great website if you like board games is board game geek. heres the link http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/87200/dragon-valley and DV is ranked #3 in new hotness. One of the clans is named Kelvey O'Keeffe in honor of yours truely and another friend of ours Scott Kelvey.

PS Orc raiders is really comming along very well, I have just been so busy working I have not been able to post much on it and my friend CW has been doing a lot of the work
