He sold the original for $300 a few times but it was usually $350. Not sure what the prices will be on the new version since it does have a few upgraded parts.

Hey folks - as someone who pledged $1 I have been sent a few reminders. One of these let's me add a KD 1.5 set as an 'add-on' - is this a legitimate way I can get hold of the game, admittedly at a higher price?

Alternatively, what are the chances of the core game ever hitting retail at any point?

Yours desparately,
Pacific


Yes, had you opened the Pledge Manager a few months ago, you would have been able to add a full Core 1.5 game. If you can still get in, then you should add one if you want one. Adam stlill needs to open the PM to collect shipping for Wave 1, so that might be your last chance to get a Core 1.5 at the KS price.

The point of 1.5 was to restock the store, so, if you define "retail" as the Kingdom Death store, then it is almost certain once Adam fulfills KS backers and late pledgers. It'll probably be $350 or even $400 instead of $300.

Good luck!

Many thanks for the comments guys.

I do still have access to the pledge manager (and it lets me add the core game as an extra), so perhaps my best bet is to try and add one, then hope there is some 'additional stock' that has been produced by this first run that I can get my hands on?

It's a bit of a gamble, but at worst you'd end up with a refund, so probably worth it.

You could email to ask first, but that whole ask for forgiveness later vs. permission up front thing might work in your favor here!

Well the pledge manager is closed, so unfortunately you can't buy anything at all at this point, except hope it opens again at some point in the future. But the core sets will be shipped in august and have already been produced, so you're out of luck for that one I'm afraid. Some people think they might open it before wave 4 (in 2019 I think?) to allow you to buy the new expansions, but that's no help to you. So in short, you'll have to wait for it to be restocked in the KD:M shop. It won't ever hit retail per Adam himself AFAIK.


Has Adam actually said that?

I mean, I don't think it will ever make it to 'retail' either, but it will probably be available on his site, and will probably be the subject of some good sales once or twice a year too...so there's always hope!


I just remember hearing it said, so I'm about as trustworthy a source as a White House spokesman! But yeah, it will certainly show up on the KDM store. Myself, Im just so happy I caved and went in on the KS with as much as I could spare (core game+gamblers+6 expansions). Getting more and more excited every day!

Same here - this KS killed my gaming budget for...quite some time, because I went in for a lot of expansions too.

Figured I'd want them eventually, and getting anything from the KD Store is...difficult and way too random.

I don't know what people are doing for storage options, but Battle Foam has an (expensive) answer for kingdom death.

Might be worth checking out if you have been struggling like me for good storage and transportation options.

That looks pretty awkward, I'd wait until you see the new box tray, since the current one is fine except strength already. And for models, a box for the big models and a foam tray for human-sized works fine. It's not like you're running around all the time with your 20 lbs of rules and a bunch of giant minis. It's easy to bring the specific models you want for a couple game sessions.

Surprise Update #56 is up!

Pathfinder crossover renders look great!

Gambler WiP is amazing, and I'm so glad I'm getting that set.

Dragon Goblin Armor looks to be a bonus add to Abyssal Woods, which I'm also getting.

All good!

Considering the Gambler's Chest is pretty much the centerpiece of the entire KD1.5 campaign, it'd be odd if this got cancelled.

It is. Looking at the size of that fig, it's going to be interesting to see it translated into plastic.

Heh.

I had imagined the Gambler would be holding the die like the artwork, sized on a 50mm base like the Flower Knight. I had no idea they would sculpt the Atlas pose holding the HUGE corpse ball, nor that the ball would be 100mm across. That's simply amazing. The Gambler's Chest is the sort of incredible value of the original KS'd game. I'm so geeked over this.

Given that Adam raised $12M during the KS and who knows how much afterward, and is charging shipping separately, I don't think anything is getting cancelled.

If anything, the addition of the Goblin Armor and reveal of the Gambler Atlas (vs. the smaller figure) show that Adam has the financial resources and freedom to make the expansions bigger and better than he had originally budgeted.

Also the wave 1 fulfilment has been delayed til end of September/mid October, so some of the stuff in the box can be shrink wrapped and a heavier duty box used with foam.
