Buckle up, we’re about to embark on an exciting adventure! We’ll unravel our company’s mission, uncover my dreams for you, and find out how you can turbocharge our growth! Ready to leap in?

Hello everyone!

Here is the very first newsletter from Greymarsh Games! I am very grateful that you want to follow my epic journey toward hopefully crowdfunding my first board game in 2025!

We need to start somewhere. And what better place to start than by giving you insight into the mission statement for this entire project?

The mission of Greymarsh Games is to carve out a place in a pretty crowded ocean of board game publishers. To do this, we need a niche.

There are so many good games being made, and the market is flooded with games in almost every genre.

Personally, my absolute favorite games are all in the 4X genre. We want a deep experience of exploration, exploitation, expansion, and extermination! I believe there is a big crowd for 4X board games, but not many games are being made in this genre. The focus of many other board game companies is on heavy euros, campaign games, dungeon crawlers, TCGs and legacy games.

I think 4X is best when it’s medium to high complexity. Even though it has a certain complexity, a game should still be intuitive—easy to learn, hard to master! Additionally, it should offer a fresh approach to the otherwise known mechanisms of the genre.

The mission is therefore:

To spread the thrill of 4X board games to passionate gamers worldwide, beginning with the epic adventure of Sky Empire!

Hopefully, you find yourself in a category that fits the mission statement.

A person who loves 4X board games of epic dimensions! If you are, then it is my job to bring you a product, Sky Empire, which will meet and exceed your expectations for a board game in this genre.

I want to give you a game with fantastic artwork, cool miniatures, and great gameplay! An experience for all the senses, touching on all the 4X aspects I can.

Additionally, as a recipient of this newsletter, I offer you involvement, influence, the opportunity to provide feedback during the game’s development, exclusive insights and items for the game, a community built around Greymarsh Games, help in learning to play the game, tangible discounts, and rewards based on your dedication to the game and the company!

In short, I want to give you everything I can upfront for as long as I can, as long as it doesn’t hinder the mission from being accomplished!

If you’re reading this without being subscribed to the newsletter, you can help me by subscribing! Hurry over to greymarshgames.com and do this right away!

Additionally, you can join our Discord and help with playtesting.

On BoardGameGeek, if you haven’t already, you can help expose the game by marking it as a fan, subscribing, or adding the game to your wishlist! You can also like and comment on pictures to help generate traffic for the game’s marketing.

To crowdfund, we need a crowd, and it’s best to have one from the start!

And perhaps most importantly:Tell your board game friends about the game! Bring them into the community through the above suggestions!

Together, as a crowd, we will realize the mission!
