Thoughts on The Witcher Adventure Game

[NRVNQSR86]

For those who don't know - CD Projekt Red is working together with CanExplode and Fantasy Flight Games on an board game (both digital as well as physical) based on the universe of The Witcher. The digital version is in an semi-closed béta stage (you can gain access for it by preordering The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt) and still being updated every odd week or so.

Personally, I find the game pretty solid so far although some features need to be added and the issues that pop up when you go head to head online are quite problematic at times still (connectivity, interactivity, etc).
What worries me though is that the physical release is slated for this year.
Thoughts/ideas?

I absolute love TW2 and thoughTW1 was OK, so I'll give it a gander. Have to say that a board game sounds a bit bizare, but I can see their logic behind it - take a game which was born out of table-top RPG's and turn it into one. A mate of mine is into all the Games Workshop stuff so he'll probably love it.

Thanks for the heads up on it.

I found what I think was a bug in it -- for whatever reason, I couldn't use signs/potions in combats triggered by investigation cards. Was playing as Geralt, obviously since I had signs/potions.

The last round I played I decided to show off on my final turn and popped an elixir and all 4 relevant signs, had something like 6 attack and defense symbols.
