None of the stuff you got before is obsolete. In the worst case you have extra dice and board.
Now we've got Sentinels of the Multiverse "Enhanced Edition"

Which is a bonus since it allows 4-player action, which was part of the game plan to begin with, let alone all of the old stuff fitting perfectly in the new box.
"summoner wars is the only game where the expansions came out before the actual game did."
Funny you should say that. Egg Shen and I were just commenting to one another (apparently) that Dungeon Twister: Prison is a reboot, and it had expansions come out before the reboot did.
I sure wish that those plonkers at Stronghold will get Merchant of Venus done...I will NOT buy an FFG reprint. I've grown to have a lot of disrespect for CP based on his lack of public etiquette, let alone that they seem to want to "fix" games that aren't broken when they reprint them. Can't wait to see how badly they've violated Fortress America.

It's simply a new jumping on point. But then everything released prior to the starter set was a possible jumping on point anyway.

Reboot /= Reprint, I guess is what I was saying.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the starter sets are getting reprinted. The box size has changed, and the rulebooks have a couple of kinks ironed out from the original release. Otherwise the same.
Summoner Wars also didn't bring forward all these rule changes to make the game more balanced or whatever. That probably speaks to the great job Colby did up front. My problems with the Thunderstone and Puzzle Strike reboots is that I didn't really think the games needed them in the first place. Usually a game will sit around for a few years before it gets revamped, but both of those were done in just a couple of years, and after widespread acceptance in their current form.
In the case of Thunderstone, I'm not sure why precipitated the change after the original was such a big hit. The interface definitely needed to be cleaned up, but that was about it.

It's not because it's a bad design, quite the opposite. I just truly, honestly SUCK at the game. My kid beats the shit out of me on the regular, and Mr. Moto wanted it, so I gave all my shit to him. I regret it since my kid really loved the game, but our record was like 50:3 as far as a win-loss ratio, and both my wife and I were sick of getting our asses handed to us by our eldest. Smug little shit, too.
Colby and I have an inside joke...we were talking about a convention and I offered up my kid as a demo girl since she knows every card inside and out..he said something to the tune of "yeah, see, nobody will buy a game at a convention when they get beat by a 8 year old at the demo."
I still giggle a little thinking about overgrown crybabies getting shitty with my kid at a demo table as she cockpunches them with the Kingdom or the Dwarves.
