Re: Kickstarter: What game(s) are you currently Kickstarting

Yes, they clearly took advantage of some lessons learned from the first one. This looks like an interesting gaming system with lots of room for growth, and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for it.

Well, as of now, I've upgraded my Arena pledge to Full (+$7 for Harun). Still considering upping my Godtear pledge when the manager opens up. Zombicide is still on the table, too, largely because it would nearly pay for itself if I could sell all/most of the KS exclusive survivors...

The New Zombicide looks great. Do I need hundreds more of little plastic toys to paint and store and play with every once in a while......No, but I want to say yes.

This looks pretty good too. Too bad I'm so out of room for everything all ready.

Yeah, I'm passing on it as well. But...I did post it on one of my gaming group's FB pages, and one of my buddies said he's for sure getting it, and I can guess that another friend might as well. This way, I may end up getting to play it sometime after all

Pledged to Legends of Signum. Sounds like a good mash-up of elements from mini war games and MtG. And the minis look great.

Interesting. It's something that should appeal to me, and I should want it. But careless editing on the KickStarter page (for instance: "Every turn the player receives points of prosperity, for which he builds Buildings in his City." Both of my children write better than that, and they're still in high school.) raises red flags about possible carelessness elsewhere in the project.

I wouldn't be backing anyway, because I only rarely back anything, but this is one I'd otherwise have on my wish list.

I browsed the page and read some of what they have written, and I would have guessed that whoever wrote it up is not a native speaker of English but rather wrote it up in their own language and then used a translator app to post it in English. But then I clicked on the video and it seems as though I would have been wrong. So I'm not sure what happened here but yeah, the writing is pretty awful in several areas which does make you wonder what the rule book will look like.

Re: Kickstarter: What game(s) are you currently Kickstarting

I read though most of the rule book and the English is a lot better (guessing they outsourced the translation). I've seen interviews with the people running the company and they're based in Ukraine, so English is definitely not their first language. The campaign updates/comments and their facebook page all have those those ESL quirks but nothing that makes me worried about the final product.

Re: Kickstarter: What game(s) are you currently Kickstarting

Ok, good. I didn't think to look at the rulebook itself. Obviously that's more important than their KS page.

Re: Kickstarter: What game(s) are you currently Kickstarting

Currently on my Kickstarter queue are the following:

Cerebria: The Inside WorldTrickerion: Legends of Illusion is my #2 game of all time, and I backed this gorgeous looking game mostly off of faith in MindClash Games. As it happens, I just acquired Anachrony at PAX East and am loving it so far, so I have no doubt Cerebria will be a hit for me.

Tiny Epic ZombiesTiny Epic Western was the first game I ever Kickstarted, and I've been enjoying the games since. Western, Quest, and Galaxies are all enjoyable games for me, so backing Zombies at a mere $30 was a no brainer.

Batman: Gotham City Chronicles – This is the big one. I had been waiting for this for multiple months prior to the campaign, and I was assuredly not disappointed. All French rulebook translation errors aside, Conan is a huge hit with me and multiple game groups I am in. Throwing Batman on top of that with even higher quality miniatures, tons more scenarios, and updated rules gives me high hopes for this game.

Like Superheroes and Comics?

Playtesting is the most helpful thing!
