Lamont Brothers Announce Dragonscroll for Spiel 2014

Lamont Brothers Announce Dragonscroll for Spiel 2014
Board Game Publisher: Fragor Games
As is their custom, brothers Fraser and Gordon Lamont — who release games under the label Fragor Games — have announced the barest of details about their upcoming design for the Spiel game convention in Essen, Germany in October 2014. The title of this release is Dragonscroll, and here's the basics announced so far:

Quote:
"You are a dragonling. It is time to feel the wind beneath your wings and the scorch of flame in your snout. It is time for elves, knights, and dwarves to tremble; a time for orcs to have unhygienic habits; a time for arrogant wizards to be put in their place; a time to write your epic tale. Do well and minstrels will sing about your deeds for generations. Do badly, and you will not even have your name scrawled on the privy wall. It is time for your mighty deeds to be chronicled on your Dragonscroll."

Dragonscroll includes four dragon models and five buildings as the trademark large-scale Fragor components, in addition to wooden fireballs, wizard meeples, goat meeples, 64 large terrain tiles, 60 cards, and "a fireball flaming tower of death", dubbed the "Ball-ROG" by co-designer Gordon Lamont.
"The game is designed to be played by gamers with a sense of fun and wonder. The game is eye-catching and will appeal to both gamers and non-gamers alike," write the Lamonts in a press release announcing the title. "We put an enormous amount of work into our one release each year. We try to give the gaming community something different, something a bit quirky. It is a roller coaster ride to each Essen but one which we love. A big thank you to the gaming community for the continued support."

Dragonscroll will retail for €65 at Spiel 2014 and can be preordered for €55 through the Fragor Games website with a €10 downpayment being required. Copies can also be delivered to the U.S., Europe, Canada and Australia. The Lamonts note that one thousand copies are available for preorder, with any overage on the game production — a maximum of 250 copies — being available for purchase during Spiel 2014.

Let the flaming begin!
