Our Western Front campaign has been gaining extensive coverage from around the map. Here is one of the articles that explain in detail everything you need to know about the project and the game itself:

Over the past 25 days, we’ve raised $25,019 in order to bring this game to life all over the world. During the last minutes, the third stretch goal was reached.

Tank Chess is gaining on popularity and it is being played all around the globe. The fans of the game are very resourceful in making their own copy which only proves that for a great game like this the material of which it’s made plays a secondary role.

Central Square is an expansion for Tank Chess that was offered in two sizes just before the end of the campaign on Kickstarter, but it gained great popularity due to the attractiveness of the 3D board. The serial production has been completed and what follows is speedy delivery.

The campaign started this afternoon and it will last until February 7th. Our initial goal was reached in ten minutes, while after three hours $10000 were raised.

A new version of the Tank Chess – a Rollup game was released and made available on our site. The boards are made of canvas, and the packaging is in the shape of a tube. The size and shape of all other elements are identical to those of the TC Main game.

Not long after the completion of the tank molding tool for the Fun Set expansion, we started the serial production and deliveries.

The game that was created back in 2006 will soon have its campaign on Kickstarter!

After a few tweaks, the tool for molding the Fun Set expansion pieces is complete.

After the Kickstarter campaign, our priorities were to prepare for the production in large series and to deliver all the rewards to the Tank Chess Kickstarter backers. After many challenges we've been handling on the run, we've finally, by request from many gamers around the world, started to sell some versions of Tank Chess and some complementary add-ons through our website.

Tank Chess is a game which full qualities can be grasped only after playing a dozen games. It's even more pronounced if the players are equally experienced, since the games between the players who are approximately at the same level are the most interesting ones. We, as authors, are still often amazed by the depth you can encounter in some situations, even with the standard obstacle setup, not to mention when we test new setups and schemes.

The game Mortar Hunt we announced in August has been produced in two versions: in a hard box (16x24x4 cm) and as a Light edition.

The game Water Polo has received a makeover in form of a Light edition, while Mini Golf has two new editions: Light and Pocket. The prices of these versions are lower than the one in the standard box (24x24x4 cm).

The retailers who ordered their copies of Tank Chess during the Kickstarter campaign and proceded with the full order were sent their packages. All the boxes have the printed logo of their company on them.

Before the start of the Tank Chess Kickstarter campaign, we decided to offer as well an expansion that contains 14 new types of pieces and 4 new types of obstacles/mines. The Fun Set proved to be a hit because the vast majority of the backers (and all the retailers) ordered it along with the Main game, and, in addition, all the distributors we are currently negotiating with are interested in this expansion.

Our game Tank Chess is slowly gaining popularity. Take a look at the following links:

Our family company works in several separate spaces. Our design studio and 3D printing workshop are located within our house (see news April-May 2018). In addition, we rent two more workshops. One is the main workshop that has a loft that we use as an office. Another one serves mostly as a warehouse, but there were also a punching machine and a packing machine. However, there wasn’t enough room for work, so we also rented a third workshop that is bigger than the first two. We moved the two machines to this new space so now the conditions for work are much better. This workshop also has an attic, which so far hasn’t been arranged but in the near future, we will probably move there our 3D printers.

The game Tank Chess was offered in three basic versions during the Kickstarter campaign (plus the expansions and some special variants):

It could be stated that this game is just one special scenario for playing Tank Chess. Although the rules of movement and shooting are almost identical, it is still a separate game because it requires each player to have their own board (12x9 squares). The boards are separated by an obstacle, so the players cannot see the opponent’s pieces and their formation.

During the Tank Chess Kickstarter campaign, we offered as an add-on a set of 38 realistic tank pieces in two sizes: standard and enlarged. The backers’ interest was exceptional so around 6000 pieces will be produced. The molding tool for the high-end production of such pieces would cost tens of thousands of dollars, with an uncertain end date and with, probably, not quite perfect castings. Therefore, we planned to produce these pieces on our 3D printers. Although we believe the backers would be satisfied with the pieces, we tried to find an even better solution for really top quality pieces. Voxellab company from Belgrade has much more advanced 3D printing technology than us – SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), so we formed a long-term cooperation agreement with them, on mutual satisfaction.
