Here is a recap of what has been translated by fellow spaniards in the comments. Edit : reorganized!
Regarding the game;
- New HQ will be compatible with the old one and 28-30 mm fantasy miniatures. Probably there will not be any re-edition of the old adventures (as you can get it anywhere...yeoldein)
- Morkar and Zargon will have miniatures! They are agents of a superior entity.
- The core box will include expansions, and a hole campaign
- New Heroquest is Fully compatible with the old One, you can play the old manual campaigns using the new board and miniatures
- Dionisio says the basic price is quite tight, it is even too low for commercial purpose
- The size of each cell: a little bit bigger than in the old one, so that you can move better the miniatures
- The bases are transparent, and you will be able to glue the miniatures as you want
- There will be characters in the Hero Expansion with their own spells
- About the sarcophagus insert and the spirit steel; "You will get wonderful surprises, I am a fan!" "we will not send anything that you cannot use, we know how to make games"
- They are working in a experience/leveling up system which don't need pencil and paper
- They are accepting personal mods for HQ, they will study them and get an agreement to use it.
- All templates, all rooms, and all the maps are double-sided (they are printed on both sides)
- They are trying to transform the heroes card into a card where you can write and clean.
- There are some alpha rules but we will not publish them until people from around the world check them (they name quite a few countries) to make beta rules to be tested by the community.
- There are going to be different editions: Foundation edition, numbered and with backers names on it, with the foundation logo. In XMas 2014, there will be the 25th Anniversary boxes. Once they are finished, they are gone.
- No walls. But they are going to try something good intermediate between walls and a flat board
- They are probably going to include female enemies. Maybe the boss of Morcar and Zargon is a female being...
- There are going to sell metal coins, but they are not going to be add-ons. Gamezone are metal and resin producers.
- They want to try up to 6 players for Beta version
- The core box is going to bring dividers or small coffers, so that everything is well kept. They are passionate about keeping things properly, and with cool things!
Regarding the campaign and stretch goals;
- The rolling stone: is almost twice the size of the barbarian, We'll include one smashed corpse or any helmet there. It is part of a giant rock trap.
- It will be "revealed" that Zargon and Morcar are only agents of a higher and darkest being...
- We only saw the 10% of the SG
- They told that the SG's are going to be an exclusive expansion
- There are more than 50 SG prepared and you can guess the next SG in the secrets image
- They can change mind on not showing the SG if it is very impopular
- The original idea for the SG wasn't using images, but as a story unveiled more and more with each goal achieved.
- As the kickstarter progress, the goals will be at lower amounts (less than 33k CAD) which is unusual... But they want to do it so you keep getting things even if the kickstarter slows down.
- There will be add ons with extra monsters
- SG are meant to add flavour and to use them in future expansion, but you do not really need them to enjoy the core game
- The 50 quest are in basic. all SG are part of Book Quest 2.
- Pledge will be changed and included news perks.
- There's a SG that reveals the old boardgame.
- During the morning, they are working in the creative part of the project, because there is work to do in the creative part. But in the evening and the night, they work for the KS.
- Question: Painted miniatures as addon? Response: probably not, but in their website they will link pages with tutorials or people who want to hire their services.
Regarding the copyrights;
- They can't put the boxes in the shops of foreign countries, but they can sell it worldwide and send it legally.
- Hasbro is probably waiting for the success of the campaign to be interested in" (They keep saying they are in contact with Hasbro).
Regarding shipping costs;
- Shipping costs: "We have to reduce them".
- they just don't want to make profit nor loose money from shipping, the calculator will take the weight and calculate it (no fixed cost for each box, but for each pound). The cost are from spanish postal service, they are trying to reduce them
- If they improve the shipping costs and you've already paid the shipping costs they will reimburse you the difference as a voucher in their shop.
- They have their webmaster working at full throttle to improve/redesing the shipping calculator.
Regarding the future of the game;
- There will be a big surprise by next christmas related with modular boards.
- Big monster for exterior Maps, we must fit a dragon.
- Exterior ruins will lead to dungeons.
- App for smartphones, tablets.
- If the game is successful, they would like to make modular furniture in the future.
- Solo-play would be possible via expansion.
- There are going to be future expansions, and maybe one of them will transform HQ into a more complicated game.
And afterwards, the game is going to be called "Heroquest Classic".
Last message form Dionisio: "Keep calm and Heroquest".
