Either that or $2,049,722 maybe?

What about $3,429,235

Speaking of an extra pack of zombies, I do get the feeling they might put up a set/sets of zombies as add ons similar to their season 1 zombie pack. They can release at least 3 of them here

I still see KD as the 'real' boardgame champ, as awesome as Reaper's KS was...

I think Dave's got it right though - the number to beat might be the old Zombicide total for the hinted at 'cool thing'.

If it is $781,598 I wonder if they'll go straight from $740k to $781,598 if it's really that good there probably won't be to many complaints about a $41,598 stretch goal - they might even throw out some paid options to get there quicker.

It's probably a bit early to be hinting at a $1m or $2,049,722 goal.

Yes and no - look at the pace this thing is on!

But realistically, I can't see this one getting too much past a million (!) as there's only so much that can be added on, especially if you factor in the CMON Formula that they tend to follow rather closely.

I expect it to go about twice the original, maybe 1.6 to 2 million. The average pledge level is higher and there should be more people as well. If they announce a $781,598 goal soon I'd expect it to pass that today, otherwise tomorrow.

It helps that The Walking Dead is back on TV currently, I think. :p

I think it'll be cheaper to those of us in my part of the world, as the shipping charges on the KS are next to nothing compared to 'real world' shipping costs.

$93 for the Original Zombicide plus $10 postage isn't too bad.

Id guess at something around 1mil

I like how the metal dudes own arm is in the background of his avatar pic

Guillotine Games announced on Facebook that they'll reveal the surprise once it hits $730k

I am all over this kickstarter like a fat kid on cake, but I still can't work out who thalissia is supposed to be? I've had loads of answers but nothing I can see seems to work. Loving Shaun but we need Ed, and a bar tile.

And here's the surprise



Get 6 companion dogs free! 3 great sculpts of man's best friend (you'll get 2 each), who'll do all kinds of stuff for your beleaguered Survivors. One of the most requested items from our first Kickstarter... we've kept these canine cuddlies under wraps until now!

That is truly awesome!

Campanion Dogs will be available as purchasable extra soon.

Yes they'll be available as options, suggested MSRP $15. We'll give it some time to settle in before we update the front page with them.

EDIT I missed the rules page here we go:

They look super cool! Very fun.

She's supposed to be Bridget Fonda's character from Point of No Return / the Assassin

So are the dogs a freebie, or an add-on only? (I know they'll also be an add-on even if a freebie.)

Freebie & Addon-on Extra

Free and an optional add-on.

How will the KS commenters complain about this one, ey?

Not enough Corgis!

Yup. No husky? No corgi? Not even a single schnauzer! This is ridiculous. Pledge pulled! /s

Making them free and an optional extra makes me much more likely to spring for another set for some reason. Probably the increased goodwill.

Also, no Rotweilers!

Actually, in all seriousness, I do find that a bit odd since they have zombie rottweilers. Would have made sense

The Rottweiler breed was more susceptible to the zombie condition than other breeds

The dog companions seem like they will be a great addition, something to help the survivors with all those toxic and berserker zombies coming....

What next, dog companionivors?

And on the topic of guessing I'm going to tip my hat to circa $1.4M. They will pulling extra backers based on the previous KS, loose a few originals but most will be back @ +50% for the "full" package.

Thanks for that. Loving the new dogs goal, wonder what's next?

Maybe a stretch goal to change it from 2x3 dogs to 1x6 dogs, so 1 of each type. Add in a Huskie (call him Wolfy or Snowy), a Pit Bull (call him... Miami ) and a King Charles Spaniel ('cause they're so cute!!!).

That would be a nice plan, perhaps also variants of zombie dog to match? I would also like to see a general increase in all amounts of zombies because I really don't want to run out of them anymore, running out of runners sucks. :p
