Has there been any word if Poots will put up the total raised after all the paypal increases from the pledge manager?

I added $85 my self to my total bringing it to $570 and from reading the messages from the KS page many people are adding quite a bit of money to their orders.

Doubtful. I don't know of any other KS projects that have done this.

Yeah I doubt he'd reveal that the whole pledge manager thing is a bit of a grey area anyway and I'm surprised kickstarter hasn't tried to stop it as they are losing their cut of the funds if they are added to a pledge manager later. I wonder if Adam announced that he'd made $100,000 extra through the pledge manager would kick starter have any claim to additional fees? The additional funds were raised as a direct result of the KS after all. Best not to reveal anything that way there is nothing to challenge.

So, is the pledge manager email supposed to be going out all week? I haven't received it yet and my brother just got his today.

I think it is still in the 'testing' phase - but I also think it must be close because it worked well for me, and didn't seem to need much else, if anything.

I think they've fixed most of the bugs. I wouldn't be surprised if they're simply trickling it out slowly so they can handle all of the requests and questions in an efficient manner.

I still haven't finalized yet. Because I'm lame. I'm waiting for the resins I ordered from the actual KD shop to come to decide how much I like the girls in resin...

Poots is using BackerKit right?

I did some testing for On the Lamb's Endless Kickstarter... just as a heads up, if you add things to your order, they don't take the money out for a few weeks (when they close the window to the pledge manager). Granted when I did it, it was only 10 dollars, but it was still a bit of a surprise.

I honestly don't know. I know the GUI is really slick and quite easy to use. I'll screen shot it for you and then you can tell me

The GUI is slick and matches the KD site itself, but it's very slow to load and process. Not a big deal though, you're only going to use it once; it's nice.

Sure

Just got done with the pledge manager. Was a quick, 5 minute process.

KD:M did not use backerkit, ignore my posts

Will do!

*shrugs* don't know, didn't back this KS remember

Though I'm only slightly kicking myself for it... but I'd like to play the game before I really wind up and kick myself...

Okay, so I've got
Survivor (+ gifts + herald of death)
flower knight, beetle knight
dragon king
sunstalker
lantern festival
spidicules

holiday white speaker
kara black
twilight knight*
messenger of courage*
beyond the wall

...which leaves $45

I'm willing to add a touch to that number, but not much. Thoughts on what I should get? (I'm considering getting a second flower knight to paint, and because it's the best discount, but not sure. Also, considering the thin man or lion king)

Also, the two marked with asterisks above I thought were promos, but the manager doesn't label them as such?

If you decide you want in, I'll hold my pledge, since we're both in OH and it should be cheap to ship it up to you. Lemme know.

What about Slenderman? He looks like he's going to be a really fun model to paint.

*regretting not throwing more at this* I hate internal conflict.

Yeah, that's what I'm leaning towards. Right now, though, that leaves me $5 under (or likely $10 over, after getting something else)

Base game is 115 isn't it? :-\

Yup.

I will have to give serious thought to it, it's cash I don't have in the account right now.

Just lemme know. I don't think they've given us a date when we have to submit.

I had to have all the survivor, all the gameplay stuff & Promo/LE and a few pinups

(but it all had to be plastic Edit: so I could pretend my spending was under control)

You're about where I am Orlando. I'm having an existential crisis regarding the pinups. Haha.

I ended up adding another $195 to my pledge - 1 of every expansion, exclusive and Pin Up - all in plastic nice and all as the resins are I couldn't justify the additional cost of resin. I dropped all the pin ups from my pledge during the KS figured I'd pick them up later but now I've had 2 months and have funds put aside I added them back in as I figure they might be hard to get later and even if I get stung for Customs and VAT they would still be cheaper through the KS. I'm looking at a VAT bill of €147 if it gets stopped! but when I worked out the KS cost versus the MSRP I saved something like $350 which is about €275 so I still come out ahead and I may or may not have to pay the VAT.

Hell Dorado is doing a Twilight Knight promo figure in collaberation with KD, Art assisted by Lockman Lam and sculpted by Thomas David

Twilight Knight Cometh to Hell

We are very excited to partner with Kingdom Death to bring our two brutal worlds together with the Pinup Twilight Knight's descent into Hell.



This amazing Special Edition figure re-imagines the Pinup Twilight Knight as she would manifest in the realms of Hell Dorado.




The concept art was illustrated by legendary artist Betrand Benoit (Rackham & Helldorado) with some key art direction provided by Lokman Lam (the artist behind the Pinup Twilight Knight). Sculpting this beautiful figure will be the famous Thomas David.

Kingdom Death is a nightmare horror game with an exquisite line of 35mm miniatures sculpted by many of the industry greats. If you haven't seen it, check out their Monster board game which gained massive support right here on Kickstarter.

The Twilight Knight Special Edition will be a $15 Add On.

Now that's a clever tie-in/cross promotion!

For those that just want the Twilight Knight it's $23 US or $28 RoW - pledge level Lemure - the miniature will be made from pewter

From the Hell Dorado FAQ:

What Levels Can I use Add Ons?

You can Add On at any level. However, if you are an international customer please add $5 shipping and handling at the Lemure Pledge Level.

I managed to escape with only an extra $55 added to my pledge. Tried to be as disciplined as possible - I didn't even get every promo and skipped the Lion King and Tree expansions. I did get doubles of the Flower Knight and Dung Beetle Knight because those two looked like the most fun to paint.
