Still, though, Im in for a Silver. Lets see how far the rabbit hole goes.


Man... a 2020 date... hahaha Thats just crazy to think about

Yeah I grabbed a Silver Lantern pledge.

I was looking at potentially upping it to the Black Friday Lantern since it was only a difference of $15, when I noticed that didn't have any of the new stuff listed with it, and wasn't sure what was included in the pledges.

Generally the Black Friday variants are just a little price cut from the normal pledges.

Poots was a little too vague with the first day stuff, i feel... Im sure you arent the only one feeling a bit of confusion

Note the Wave shipping costs. Frex, if you're buying the Silver Lantern, you'd be paying shipping costs for the Update Pack for Wave 1 *AND* the Gambler's Box for Wave 2. Not clear which wave the SG's will be shipped in?

So, as a n00b here (: do the Armor Kits each create their own figures, or do they only add parts to modify the 4x Starting Survivors? TIA!

Armor kits make complete figures. And they can of course be kitbashed. looootsa options





So we're up to beyond a mil now... damn guys...

None of the expansions available at the US warehouse. Oh well, still waiting on that tree I guess. I'm too cheap to pay for shipping on two minis, even if they're on sale.

In for a silver lantern. I tried to tell myself to just go for the update package, but I'm sure the gambler box is going to be pretty crazy by the end of this one.

Poor timing for me. Unable to really go in on this until after the holidays so I'll probably have to forgo both the Black Friday sale and the kickstarter.

First time I'm unable to drop money on KD.

Also, am I reading it right where it would cost $60 (base pledge) plus $15 plus $2 just for access to buy add on expansions? What is he planning to offer backers who are good without buying a/another base game but who want to buy expansions or armor kit add ons?

Shipping is looking to be really expensive on this one.

For just the base pledge, it's $50/$60 + $10 for that shipping, and at least $15+$2 per additional add-on, so a minimum of $77/$87 if you are just updraging and want some other add-ons.

Almost? Dec. 2020 isn't an almost. That's a huge hedge.

OTOH, it is consistent with the delivery timeframe of the first KS...

Vigorously pressing F5 so I can see the stretch goals as they "unlock".

Still liked as OOS for me? Maybe it's going in and out as people shop.

I initially went for the Black Friday Silver Lantern but I've upped to Black Friday Gambler's lantern - the all in upgrade pledge as there is no non Black Friday version of this pledge. $777 is a lot but I spent way more on the first KS and if this really fills out it could be a great price - the gamble is only $10 as I can drop back down to regular Silver Lantern if the value isn't there at the end.

Shipping cost just killed my interest in the Black Friday Ninja $22 on a $25 mini :(

I just did the same... Really for the same reasoning!

Heres to the best of luck for both of us, eh?

I was tempted to grab the Gambler, because I know I'll probably spend more down the line on the things I want as they appear in the PM. But that much money isn't in the realm of possibility for me right now.

In for $777. I spent twice that picking up everything from the first KS as I missed the first one so will be worth it.

I want models that match all those first hero illustrations.

The bottom right guy is the model they show, but I really like the top two as well, and they better have that smarmy- looking Slaaneshi pretty boy in there as well.

I put in for the $185 BF Silver Lantern. We'll see how it goes...

I'm internally debating whether I should get the few expansions I didn't get the first time around on the store. 50% off is pretty good to fill the gaps.

Thanks for the heads up. I managed to get it into my cart by removing everything else, but it won't checkout. So I guess if there's something you want you need to just grab and checkout (and risk multiple brutal shipping charges) rather than trying to get more stuff. I'll check back in a while and see if the store has fixed itself.

Well, went in for the silver b/c I know I'll want the campaign variants. Not feeling so confident in my continued enthusiasm that I expect I want the super $800 pack.

Find it a bit weird that there's basically no info on what the update will actually consist of...

I'm sure we'll find out more in the next 40 days.

Aha! For anyone as dumb as I apparently am the HQ Warehouse (USA) and the USA Warehouse aren't the same, so you can't get expansions and figures in the cart at the same time. Still no luck on getting the Lonely Tree, but I regained some sanity points.

I really, really hope one of the stretch goals is the Shipping Charges Survivor kit.


I'd buy one.

In case anyone's interested in upgrading, they added more of the Black Friday Gold Lantern pledge level.

More BF slots added. Guess that's what Poots has been doing instead of updates...!

That's some jump in the Gambler's lantern price for the 2nd lot up to $927 glad I locked in at $777

EDIT ah it has the core game as well

Gambler's lantern: Update Pack
2nd Face: Kingdom Death: Monster Core Game 1.5

That extra 200 in the 927 is the core game instead of the upgrade for existing game owners.

And it's almost at 2mil already!

This will hit the first KS's total in under 2 hours of the start.

Is this serious?? delivery date of Dec 2020, just for the upgrade pack??? Am I missing something that says that will be delivered sooner?

Even I don't know for 100% what may happen during this campaign.

Scroll down for the breakdown on what will be delivered in which wave. Core Box will be in Wave 1, to be delivered Summer 2017.

Of course, given Poots, yeah, stuff could be delayed until 2020...

This thing is blowing up, so Adam needs to show where the money will be going.

I'm not expecting $400 MSRP for $100, but I would like more content information so that these pledges are justified.
