Resin Watcher ($35)

Total: $336

I'm feeling pretty good, sitting at 86 minis for $3.90 a piece.

Dropping that Resin Watcher to just have expansions would put you at $301 . It's a nice round number, just $1 over Herald of Death. Just saying

You guys are sure in heavy on this game! I'm going to watch that second gameplay video now and see what it looks like.

Looks like beetle armour on the left and flower knight outfit on the right.

Edit: in the second video when talking about terrain does poots says corpses or copses can be scavenged? Sounds like corpses but the context seems to suggest the latter.

Especially as if I read the goal stuff correctly he's already getting 2 plastic Watchers?

Second gameplay video makes me happy, I'm even thinking that I might be able to get family members to play it now (they play "traditional" stuff like Cluedo, Monopoly, Risk etc, but generally not the "deeper" games like FFG, Settlers etc) due to the co-operative gameplay and the video makes me think it's the sort they could get into.

Holy gak, the one on the right does look like a Flower Knight! I had guessed the Beetle on the left, but now you made me even more excited for this. Also, did this thing really shoot up another 100,000 since I fell asleep? Holy crap!

And I think I need to get the Messenger of Courage. Love the Twilight Knight and the Pinup. so Twilight Knight Pinup that looks kind of like Link? Yeah, I think that needs to happen. I'd also be very pleased if the Beetle gets tossed on as another Herald reward, as the model is lovely but I'm not sure I can fit it in the budget, already spending a lot of cash on this! But even if the new reward is just these armor sets like we think it is, that would be very awesome as well.

Edit: Totally irrelevant, but amidst all this excitement for KD, I totally missed (and just now discovered) that one of my favorite bands released a new song. When Monster makes it to my front door, I shall officially have a marathon of four Bring Me the Horizon albums while building and painting KD!

So the Green Knight Armour kit is a bit of all 3 knights combined very clever it may boost sales of the Dung Beetle Knight and Flower Knight expansions

"The Green Knight Armor is a very special and very difficult armor to create. It requires a number of forgotten molds to be collected, reconstructed AND several rare resources from the Dung Beetle Knight, Flower Knight AND the Lion Knight! ( you'll also need some trace amounts of gormite, for the under armor lining! ) The armor is masterpiece and it cannot be combined with other armors in the game. Because of this, the miniatures are mono sculpts and only their hands are compatible with the other miniature armor kits."

If for some reason you need extra sets ( pledging for multiple people at once ) The Green Knight Armor is available for +$25, it comes with a single male and female survivor fully suited in the legendary Green Knight Armor and the rules / cards required to add them to your campaign.

That Green Knight armor will be hard to craft - I hope it is 'worth it' in game!

$1.3M goal looks interesting too!

Whoa, yeah it will be! You need 4 expansions, including the Gorm . Pretty cool, though.

I guess the days of +4 figures for Survivor were just week 1 . He got everybody hook, line, and sinker with the Survivor bonuses at the start, followed by Herald of Death only bonuses later.

I do like the look of them

and I'm interested Adam decided to go the mono-pose route with them

(wonder if it's to help speed up casting as he said the production pipeline was looking a bit overstuffed)

now do I settle for just the free set or gamble I can cut the heads free well enough to mix into the armour kit minis..... decisions. decisions (I suspect there will be enough extra I can't afford it)

Far be it from me do deter you from upping your pledge.... , but after carefully reading the text and the footnote, it sounds like you can't either make or equip just one part of the armor. IE: I made the Green Armor boots and want to equip them with other armor parts. Just can't be done. I might be reading too much into this, but why would they be a mono cast? On the other hand if you want them for a kit-bash more power to you.

Looks like the green knight legs are from the dragon king, and with the silk skirt i wonder if this was intially supposed to require even more to craft.

Oh, I know. And I'm already getting 2 plastic Watchers, as well, but I like the idea of getting one of the nice, clean, resin pieces with the CoA and the art card. This will be the second KD resin I've bought, so I figured it would be really cool to get one of the 2 collector's pieces available during the campaign!

I would be vary conservative in what can reasonably be converted: it looks like these are going to be very intricate models, with a lot of organic curves and blades. The great curse of the most sculptural miniatures... they lose their interchangeability.

Well, with the KS exclusive Messanger of Courage and the new Green Knight Armor that requries the Dung Beetle Knight, I'm dropping Spidicules in favor of those two. Bye bye, Spidey! I kinda liked you, but I'll live

Not to distract from the main topic of discussion too much, but I have a question for people with more veteran knowledge on Kickstarter as a whole.

Amazon Payments keeps a log of the payments made. I have $86 allocated to this Kickstarter project, and it shows on Amazon Payments that the money is allocated but not yet withdrawn.
However, recently, I upped my pledge from $86 to $201 (due to extras), but I was not required to sign into Amazon Payments this time. Additionally, Amazon Payments is still sitting on the original $86 I pledged.

How do I up my Amazon Payments allocation? Must I do this manually? Will I have a chance to do this when the kickstarter is over? Can I use Paypal for anything?

Thanks Dakkanauts!

@Absolutinis: That's wierd. I've always had to logon to Amazon each time I increased my pledge (not when decreasing, though).

Absolutionis did you pledge more than $201 on KD:M at any point and then come back down to $86 if you had a pledge higher than $201 Amazon payments stores the highest amount you authorised and you can change freely under that maximum value without further updating your payment authorisation you only need to reauthorise if you exceed your previous maximum. Also it will only charge the final pledge total you enter regardless of how high you authorised.

Hmm, the only time I don't have to authorize a pledge increase is if I had previously authorized that number or higher. Basically, it reserves the highest authorization you've given them for the duration of the campaign, so if you lower it, you can go back up without having to give your permission again.

EDIT: Ninja'd by DaveC!

I'm sitting on $201 Kickstarter and $86 Amazon payments. I guess this is an anomaly and should be fixed.

Oddly enough, trying to raise to 202 temporarily requires a login. I'll get this fixed...

Thanks all for the help.

Can't find the text right now, but wasn't there mention of a Paypal option as well?

I can't add to what DaveC and Recruittons said

But to be safe just re-do your pledge (t's probably a glitch after all)

I'll also add that my current pledge of $336 is still "in progress" even though I changed it and then tried to set it twice more after that, I'm a little worried that I will be stuck with only $301 instead of the full pledge I want now...
