It will definitely end at or near Zombicide's finish!

At the moment it seems that CMON is actually not that interested in going much further. They don't seem be putting any extra optional items or anything really amazing to push the interest even further. As it is it seems to be stable on doing ~$55,000 per day. So it should get finish around the $750,000

....?

At or near, yes?

No worries either way as this one is an unqualified success!

I'm sure they're reacting to people wanting to see more in-universe stuff rather than all the homage characters, but these last stretch goals do seem a bit underwhelming for final pushes. Ashoka was okay, but not something I'd think would bring home the bacon. The new Morgan concept seems decidedly more bland.

Should have done a not-femshep, or a couple of the Normandy crew.

Not sure. Though if some good ideas come up I may pick up a Rev. Shephard and Haylee, Ship's Mechanic figure from Hasslefree to go with them..

Just looked at Haylee and there is definitely something very wrong with her face...

Whadya mean?



She looks pretty good.... for someone who looks like the ran into a wall at full speed.

I'm getting her, and the Rev. Need a Doc, Wash, Zoe, and a good sidekick robot. ( hopefully good looking with a big gun.)

She has a date with a dremmel tool, and one of those reaper heads is going in the hole.

A close second for a recommend would be Rosie, from the chronoscope line.

She is a butterface, but dremmels do wonders for looks like that.

We have reached 666k

What is the next mark of the beast?

Just had a thought, will there be more shipping charges for the March goodies?

Then people will have something new to complain about.

Nope, all included within the one-time payment.

Man, I feel sorry for those who are just getting the $80 pledge. So much more stuff!

For those who want Jada Lily's head to go in a THI carapace, make sure you buy the suit:

While the IndieGoGo system SUCKS BALLS compared to kickstarter, I'm going to direct all of you gorgeous miniature lovers this way:

http://www.indiegogo.com/infamy-watson?a=648263

I know, I know. "I don't need any more miniatures," you say. But look at these. They're just great looking!

Anyways. Really looking forward to this.

cincydooley wrote:So...who else is looking forward to CMoN next kickstarter

Please god, not any time soon. I think I need to put a block on Kickstarter on our firewall for a while :/

Argh, the horrible situation where I have to choose between certain miniatures rather than having them all!!!

I basically have given myself a concrete budget, as the wedding is little more than 30 hours away now! So I am under the rule that I have $150 to spend, with the intention to both play this as the base game and a minis skirmish game I will set in the same universe, with the goal of about 15-20 max minis on a side.

I'm consoling myself with the fact that we already get 5 heros for the Vanguard in the base game, so there is no burning need for extra characters(however cool Ridley and the Calamity crew are!).

So I think my goal might be to get the Opticamo set because:

1. Would make great wargear for a skirmish.
2. Hard to replicate without special paintjobs, which for things like the heros, is especially limiting because 1 hero can be 2 forms (Opticamo and normal). Other ways like disks under the base to represent a normal trooper having opticamo are cheap, but not as cool.

I think 1-2 THI suits would be cool, as they will make great support units alongside the tanks. Although now that we get two tanks, Vanguard have plenty of available support, so maybe just 1 suit for the stat card (that I can copy if I want more metal ones, but at the least would have 1 plastic that has the customizable weapons+ having it for Jada Lily to wear)

So basically I'm stuck with the choice of:

-Opticamo and 2 suits
-2 Suits and 2 characters (or Calamity Crew)
-Opticamo, 1 suit, 1 character(probably Ridley because both her versions look to be the most useful to each side in a skirmish setting)

Any of you guys have opinions?

I vote suits and Calamity Crew. Mostly because I think the Calamity Crew is one of the cooles things (outside the game as a whole) to come out of this Kickstarter.

Okay I pledged well over the Biohazard amount... but could someone tell me why Sedition Wars needs fifty GRAND just to get a small plastic character in a static pose!? I have commissioned custom 28mm's for less than 200 w/shipping... what I am saying is the stretch goal is more money than the entire funding goal of 20,000 for the game itself.

I think they're just getting plain ole greedy with there target goals. With all this extra money they are getting I hope we see an expansion that blows us away. (don't forget Kickstarter gets 5% or more of the profits when the project is funded!)

TLDR: 50k is far too much for a simple one miniature goal.

Greedy? For a free Biohazard level mini? I mean yea sure if a 50k away goal was another $10 character then that would be a bit of a stretch, but we're talking about more free stuff.

I think the problem is not the extra mini is the amount of minis they gave you on the start. For the amount of stuff you get in the box $100 is ridiculously low for the quality of the miniatures

"Greedy".....I'm sorry, I thought CMoN and Studio McVey were Companies and not charity organisations.

For Zombicide, did they let you add the extra characters and stuff to your pledges after the fact? I'd like to get some of the extras here, but $100 is my absolute max right now. But, in a month or so I can spend more on other goodies

...and would let CKPM let me add the EU shipping I might "forget" now, just after mantic's KS antics?
