I bought Forbidden Alchemy, but never opened it or played it because i heard the components were botched. I never got a replacement. Will this work with the new stuff, or will I first need my components fixed?

Shouldn't be an issue, only the models and room tiles are used. You might still get free fixed components anyway if you ask FFG.

what components were botched please??

How quickly was the issue resolved in reprints?

Would be useful to know as a person who is looking to buy it second hand.

Thanks

EDIT: Ah for info I found this:

In one of the scenarios you needed both sides on one tile at once. The re-printed these tiles. I don´t know if this is an issue, but if it can be a problem I belive it will be a very rare problem.

The link I posted above seemed to suggest a chunkload of cards needed reprinting too

Cards from 1E are not used, only tiles, investigators, and monsters.

Were any tiles changed in 2E?

Cards from 1E are not used, only tiles, investigators, and monsters.

I know thanks, but I would rather buy a first edition and have the option of 1vs-many than just have the components fr 2nd-ed so also need to know about the state of reprint cards.

Thanks though.
