For Kickstarter, this is correct.

I may have missed this one in an earlier post, but for $25 it seems like a good deal. Only 11 hours left.

Yes, that sucks. That comes from the fear of international shipping as well as the insanely high prices to send to certain places.

Is it possible to pay for a KS project before it finishes, assuming the goal has been reached? I ask because... well, I have the money now, but I may not have it in 30 days. And I don't want to miss out on a whole demon army. :(


Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.

The different levels are a bit confusing and the difference between the limited and unlimited are not very attractive to me.  Seems like you sacrifice the exlusive minitaure if you go with the limited but get additional metal and no shipping charge.

Of course some of the limited levels are almost sold out or sold out, so it probably won't matter soon, unless the limited level number available is bumped up.

No.  All pledges are processed together once the project ends.

I am wondering when someone will start developing Kickstarter - To Fund or Not to Fund as a board or card game.

That would be hilarious!

I thought this was supposed to be a female storm giant:

The painter managed to recover a bit of this model's dignity by giving her a sky-teddy to wear.

Nice....now all we need is Angela Imrie to do a resculpt on it and get rid of that cumbersome armor she is wearing.  :D

Storm giant or cloud giant doesn't matter to me either way, they are both giants rarely seen in adventures in my opinion.  Plus, they could be painted either way for whatever you want.   8)

That storm giant would work well for DCC #21, Assault on Stormbringer Castle.  Nasty, tough adventure :)

And now the deal is even more ridiculously good.  Right now, you can get 205 minis for $100.00 in the US and Canada.  And an important tidbit you can learn from the FAQ video is that you can drop the "Sophie" mini, which is of a hot girl riding a motorcycle (something you won't usually find in any of my fantasy games), and use that $25.00 money for one or some of the add on minis which are incredibly interesting, like the dragons, hydra, or demon minis.  Or, you could use the $25.00 to get the case.  Think about it, 204 minis, a case, and shipping for $100.00.  Ridiculous!  8O

Many of you may not be interested in minis due to space or money, but this Kickstarter vampire level deal will give you most of the minis you'd need for many of your games.  I find minis very useful for seeing where characters are standing and determining what they can or can't do.  And while some of you are skeptical that these minis are truly worthwhile because they are plastic, you should read some of the reviews by people who have bought them.  Even though my personal collection is metal, I can tell you that metal is heavy and does not handle dropping well at all.  And these minis don't even require priming, which is another plus if you decide to paint them.



The Pledge Manager for the Reaper KS is now live. Everyone should have received a personalized link.
I pledged Vampire, and just traded in the Sophie for the case (thanks for the recommendation, ben), added my shipping address and locked in my order. The Pledge Manager is a little clunky and counterintuitive but seems to work okay, and shows you your final order before you lock it in.

I did the same, traded in Sophie, added my shipping adress, locked the order... and I have add some extras (+ $30) to my Vampire pledge.
