As this will be the first time I have done a kickstarter pledge I am a bit unsure. If I want the Fugitive pledge plus all the extra characters, do I pledge the two amounts added together or just the fugitive $150 amount and add to it later, how exactly does this work? Thanks in advance for the help.

Find the pledge amount you want select it. Next, add any shipping (assuming there is any). Next work out what add-ons you want. Total that and put that as your pledge.

You can edit it up or down at any stage before the end of the kickstarter.

and will possibly be able to add to it through the pledge manager after the end of the KS too!

Edit:

And H.B.M.C. , you ought to be slapped for the name in your Sig. Tech-adept R2-D2 indeed!

No 'maybe' about it!

Everyone knew they would do it but it's been officially confirmed

Hey everyone! Most of our people are out at conventions (GAMA and PAX East) until next week, but I wanted to pop in and confirm for everyone that we are going to use our pledge manager (CKPM) for this project. That means you'll be able to make changes to your order and add items after the project has closed here on Kickstarter. The CKPM is also what you'll use to tell us exactly which extra items you want to buy!

And almost at "Gary" - $1,327,337 out of $1,330,000. I suspect "Gary" Zombivor as next stretch goal, but would love some extra companion dogs and new Zombie dogz sculpts. Jack russell variants, anyone?

Let's go for Wishbone & Levar Burton survivor and companion.

If they do Levar Burton, he needs some sort of visor sunglasses

Here we go then

Clarice Starling - $10









Hannibal Lecter

That would have been great!

I really doubt the game can go much farther, and I have been disappointed in the last few survivors. People have been asking for snake and I am legend guys surivors which would have fit much better then the last few.

Due to them wanting to get the game and extras out in only one shipment they have already been working on the sculpts for the promos ahead of the Kickstarter so they have had to stick to what they had planned or waste a sculpt they are working on and possibly miss the deadline. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Snake and the other demanded characters next time around.

Given that the prison outbreak is a focus of the expansion I can see the not-Hannibal tie in, but he's not a mini I get particuarly excited about. If it's going to be tough guys behind bars I'd rather see the cast of OZ or even Sons of Anarchy.

Personally I much prefer the action hereo references. Any versions of Kurt Russel, Sly, or Arnold would be totally awesome. Vin Desiel or the Rock would also be pretty sweet if you can smell what I'm cookin'.

I wonder if we'll get a Nicholas Cage, CON AIR, inspired inmate.

I'm not a big Hannibal Lector fan, but I actually liked that he's basically a villain.

Maybe Plisken will make an appearance by the end. He's stared in 2 prison break movies after all.

Crap this is going to get expensive!

Wadda ya mean, "Going"? My pledge started at $150 for the Fugitive level plus $35 for 'international' shipping. with the latest update, I'm up to $315 and debating adding $15 for the extra mall tiles. If I'm in for that, I wonder if it's worth getting the extra S1 tiles and the extra PO tiles?

LOL, I am right there with you Conrad. Its my problem that I have to have all the extras! I have several friends than run game shops, so I can wait and get the box games at cost. But I won't get the Extras! I intended to do the last KS for this and totally screwed up in doing it in time. So I am throwing my hat in on this one and not missing out on these goodies.

Personally I feel the exact opposite way. My favourite characters so far have been the ones like Sheldon, and Wanda the waitress, Aunt rose etc... Basically ordinary peaceful people in an extraordinary situation. The idea of Jessica Fletcher lighting people up with a flame thrower fills my heart with glee because it's the last thing I can ever imagine her doing. The same goes for the waitress with a chainsaw. Seeing these people driven to such extremes of badassery, is kind of refreshing and funny.

On the flip side action heroes are kicking ass all the time. Zombie apocalypse is just another day at work for Snake, or Chuck Norris. We already know they are badasses, so I feel it makes them a bit boring. Having one or two as special characters is okay, but I think there is already more than enough. I'd much rather see someone normal like Mr Rodgers. Or at least someone funny like Mr T.

Went I got the E-mail, and I saw Helen's portrait my first thought was 'Sweet! Scully.. then we should get Mulder too!'

Then I realized it was 'Silence of the Lambs' and was disappointed. :/

That's what I thought at first as well.

I was confident that this'd break 2mil when it started, but it seems that CMON are asleep at the wheel. Granted they've been at PAX this past weekend (no doubt trying to drum up support for the KS), but it's a long time between stretches, and they're not revealing new ones until all the current ones are done.

They really need another PA endorsement. Rank Slick Tycho w/Occult Shotgun Ultra Red item. C'mon CMON, you can do it!!!

Yeah some of the new extra characters are leaving me a bit cold too, possibly because they are not from my favourite films.

I'm also a little disappointed by allot of the latest stretches being $10 extra characters and the fact that a further stretch goal will then inevitably be the Zombivivor version which meets face it is required in the expansion and beyond.

Minor grumble I grant you, perhaps the original Zombicide KS has lead me to expect too much!

Really though, there's already more freebies in this one than in the original if I'm not mistaken. It's just that they seem to have shot through most of their powder rather much too quickly. Doesn't mean there's less value here, though

Are the Extra tiles going to be available in a retail shop or are the exclusive to the kick starter? Not sure I am going to be able to get all of this at one go but would like to know what I have to get vs what I can pick up later.

At the very least you'll be able to add them in the pledge manager, something which won't close until a few paychecks from now.

I kind of want some (more) zombie related celebrity survivors, like a Not Frank West. Sigh

Walk of the Dead cards are in



Helen Zombivor on deck

You'd think the prison outbreak would have "prison-y" themed characters, characters from The Rock, Clint Eastwood and friends from Escape from Alcatraz, Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence from life, maybe Dr. Evil and Mini-Me from the prison music video sequence, The characters from Con Air, Lady Gaga in the prison outfit, etc...

A wasted effort.

YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID

How are the expansion survivors/ zombies going for the first one?

This is looking like your standard issue CMON hyper reach, yet again. With as much running, you'd think they are already finished the other ones.

Well this came out of now where - full update here http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coolminiornot/zombicide-season-2/posts/438190 (I didn't post all of it there's a lot in it)

Guillotine Games has teamed up with some great comic book artist and game illustrators to bring you Survivors designed by the artists themselves!

Each box comes with 2 Survivors, and their Zombivor counterparts, and will ship Q1 2014. These aren't limited, and the MSRP is $20 (available on Kickstarter for $15).







If you want any of these Guest Artist Boxes: - just add the appropriate amount to your pledge by clicking the Manage Pledge button from the Zombicide: Season 2 Kickstarter page (blue button on the right).

EDIT full artwork - spoiler tag to save space

Quite good aren't they?
