Getting everything printed

by **Lovfinion** » 06.01.2014, 14:19

Greetings,

First things, this expansion looks absolutely awesome and adds loads of fun to the game, my big problem is I would like to get it printed to as high a standard as possible - has anyone for instance had a professional outfit such as Artscow do the job and if so what kind of price can i expect to have everything printed except the manual?

Again thank you so very much for creating an expansion that blows away the base game and makes it exceedingly fun

Warm regards

Kevin

Hello Kevin!

Thx for your kind words! Glad you have fun with it.

I recommend a "Copy Shop" or "Print Shop" near your location. Copy the files on a USB Flash Drive and take it to a printing company. They can handle the files and you can decide, what paper to use. Thick paper will be the best. Also you can print the Map Tiles to pasteboards. There are many paper types, just ask the guys in the company. They will give you advise.

Printing all the cards in a copy shop near my location took me about $ 20,00! So it's not that much.

Sorry, I am living in Austria, so I can't tell you a company like Artscow to print it online. Maybe someone in the forums knows a good company.

Regards
Nikolai

Hi !
I printed it in a printcenter (copy shop) nearby. But it was more expensive than Nikolai for me (around 50$), and I have to cut the cards myself...
I didnt search much to find another cheaper, as the other ones were much further. I live in France by the way.
Where do you live ?

I only printed the cards, thats the reason!

A friend of mine (he works at a printing company) printed the map tiles on a special type of plates. very professional.

Me and my wife, downloaded and watched three seasons of The Walking Dead. We absolutly love it. Then today we vissited a bookshop and discovered the board game. I realy thought the guys who designed the game did a very good job. And thought to myself that there wont be much replay abillity. While browsing boardgame geek I came across the unofficial patch And did this get me excited. Now I can play my favorate characters aswell. The main reason I registered on this site was so that I can thank all the people who were involved with this, and that you were so kind as to share it with the rest of the fans. I haven't even opened the box.......and I have already downloaded the patch.
One question though? How does the origanal board fit in with the expansion?

ps. Thanx.. this is great love the attention to detail. cant wait to play this with my friends....

pss.. I am from South Africa

Hello Merlin! Thank you very much for your kind words. You should try to play with 6 players, a lot of action and fun!

You need the original content from the box as well, except the original board. The Board will be replaced with the street squares (map tiles). You have to combine the encouter cards from the original game with the downloaded printed ones. For the Walker players you need the walker cards from the original game and of course, all scrounge cards, pawns, tokens...

Long story short: Print out all cards and comine them with the original ones from your bought game. I recommend to print the cards in a copy shop or printing company near you to have the perfect match.

If you have questions, post them here. I will try to help you as good as I can.

Have Fun, keep playing!
