for anyone who cant be bothered to trawl through the bbg forum heres a few choice quotes from poots:
"The game features what I like to call "organic design", things are necessarily better just because they were crafted from a higher level settlement location or from better materials. You might for example have a mask fashioned from the skull of a phoenix. While wearing it, if your insanity is high enough the survivor might begin to believe he is the reincarnation of the monster and get a slew of survival points for departing on a hunt with only bone weapons!"
"There are ways to influence the innovation deck, drawing multiple cards gaining only one, or simply taking a specific innovation and putting it into play. Maybe you'll have a culture that sacrifices a healthy survivor to harvest their body and use it as means to try and innovate… ah now i am walking a fine line of too many spoilers!"
"The game is mature, and intended for an adult audience. If you are in particular very sensative please take that into consideration. As your pledge will be supporting artistic endeavours you may not feel comfortable with.
Think of it like... nightmare animal planet. "
Re expansions modifying campaing length "they can lengthen the game and in the case of the Dragon King, he comes with rules wherein you can begin your settlement under "rule" of him. This would change your starting settlement and offer a varient campaign course."
"It's also entirely possible to "game over" in the introduction fight and never even build your first settlement."
"I will be releasing more heads in the future, I just couldn't squeeze them into this campaign! We were working on an emo set and a mongrel set! But like most good pieces of artwork, they are a challenge to get right."

A very interesting piece.... and given the detail, I can see why it is so expensive. Hmmm... that said, it's certainly going to be available later, so I'm just not sure it beats out other things in today's allocations...
Wow.....any indications on how big the tree is? If it can be made to fit on a 50mm base, I am so grabbing this to use as an alternate Wurmwood, Tree of Judgement for my Hordes army.
"The 75mm gun is firing. The 37mm gun is firing, but is traversed round the wrong way. The Browning is jammed. I am saying "Driver, advance." and the driver, who can't hear me, is reversing. And as I look over the top of the turret and see twelve enemy tanks fifty yards away, someone hands me a cheese sandwich."

There goes that plan....but still, it's gorgeous. Probably just as well, I keep having to remind myself I'm kickstartered out for some time to come and no my pledge can't go to the "everything" level. But it's so hard....

My first thought was, CD what did CD stand for again? Help me Dakka mouse-over abbreviation explanations! Wait, CD, as in Compact Disk CD, That's huge!
I fear I too may be going insane.
