Pledge manager links being sent out

The deadline for submitting and paying for your pledge is October 23rd, 2016. Don’t be late! If you fail to finalize your pledge by the deadline, your order will be shipped later and from the USA hub, incurring higher shipping costs and possible customs fees for international backers.

and remember the main pledge includes some of the things also offered as add ons (eg the Troglodytes box) so look at the list at the top of the page to see what you're getting before adding duplicates you didn't intend to

I got the invite and I'm still torn on if I want this. I love the idea but then I think...will I ever play this?

Same boat. I'm in for $1 and I can't decide if I want to go for it. Part of me thinks of all the Zombicide: Black Plague stuff I have - this would be another way to use that massive pile of plastic.

On the other hand, I have yet to actually play Black Plague itself, so it's hardly a crushing need.

My hesitance to go in on the pledge manager is due to being a UK backer of The Others.

Black Plague is pretty awesome, Massive Darkness looks like it is better.

Played Black Plague recently and it is indeed loads of fun.

Only add-on I got for my Lightbringer pledge at this time is the cross-over set for Black Plague since that seems to be the only kickstarter exclusive item right now. That will be a ton of cross over possibilities between both games.
Will likely get the expension boxes at a later time.

At the time of the KS, I wasn't really feeling the game (neither the minis nor the gameplay); however, I still kept a buck in, just in case. Since that time, I still feel like it's overpriced at $120 + (expensive) S&H to CA.

And then, Kingdom Death said they would be doing a KS on Black Friday... Given the choice, I think I'm more excited over potentially more lovely Kingdom Death over not-quite-Zombicide.

Won't be going in on the PM after all. In fact I sold my entire Black Plague Knight pledge with lots of extras. Nice game which can be quite fun but not worth the massive investment for me since I won't be painting the minis nor use them elsewhere. My wallet just cried from joy

We played through the core set of Black Plague and had a lot of fun with it. Haven't gotten back to it since the rest of the KS landed (we basically played Zombicide every week for almost a year), but based on Zombicide and BP I've got no hesitation in going all in on Massive Darkness.

Same. Think this will be my last CMON backing as I had already paid for everything i wanted.

Sick of being used as a vehicle to get a product to market where non backers will have theirs weeks ahead of me.

In fairness, I think the Euro pledges are stuck on a Hanjin ship - which is out of CMON's control.

In fairness, if they hadn't used a 1 day bank holiday to delay shipping a month, this would not have happened.

Same here!

This one looks great, and will probably even see more play in my gaming group than Zombicide - especially if the campaign mode/persistent story mode is good!

No hesitation at all about going in for a sizeable (albeit not mental) pledge with this one.

Their excuses and communication are rubbish at best, look up Aetherworks' facebook to find out that CMON hadn't even told their AU distributors that they were shipping only about 1/3 of the AU pledges on the boat that they told us about, and that the rest would show up several weeks later. I doubt a 1-day holiday or long weekend in the US actually made any difference to when they shipped from China.

Hail Lightbringers!

As you're all filling out your Pledge Managers, many have been wondering whether or not to get the Enemy Box: Reptisaurians expansion, given that you haven't even seen these guys' sculpts yet.






















I love the reptiloids but i'm less convinced by the big bad (has a bit of a 'blown up with a bicycle pump' look), but all in all it looks a good box

Still in for the basic pledge but there are a couple things Ill be keeping an eye out for at retail.

Remember, I think today is the last day to lock in your pledge - at least without getting put at the back of the line/having to jump some hurdles!

(I locked mine in last night...)

Locked mine in as well. Managed to grab some funds to get the base and the Black Plague cards.

Shipping to St.Louis, MO was only $10.85, but were a hub for ups and fed ex, so I guess that's cheaper than hitting all the transfer points.

I was really tempted to add some more items, but I'm guessing the non-exclusives will be cheaper through online dealers once it all hits retail.

Jesus the $ to € sucks right now.

I couldn't say no because of some of the monsters, but that's it. No more KS until the Euro gets stronger. I'll import GW stuff at laugh-at-the-£ prices instead.

Man I hope the "persistent" mode ends up being satisfying. Locking down that $400 pledge was rough, and I couldn't tell if I had buyers remorse or not. :-p
