Anyone have any idea what will be in the core game yet?

Due to how CMoN loves fake SGs to pad their campaigns, we probably won't know for several days, maybe a week, depending on how fast things unlock.

That definitely used to be true but CMoN did not add a single item to either the core set or expansion during the Black Plague campaign and hopefully that's the direction they will be taking in the future.

And haven't for some time.

Don't let a good sound byte get in the way of facts. ;-)

Content of Core Game confirmed as

7 Heroes - 8 Miniatures
5 Hell Club Miniatures
1 Avatar of Pride
1 Pride Controller
6 Pride Abominations
1 Avatar of Sloth
1 Sloth Controller
6 Sloth Abomintions
18 Acolytes
10 City Tiles
6 Sin player dashboards
7 Hero Dashboards
70 Cards
over 70 card board tokens
27 plastic tokens - 20 health, 7 Corruption
7 Story boards
14 Custom dice

I was almost right just wasn't sure on the Abominations

Looks like a cool start.

Hopefully they swell the numbers of Abominations and Acolytes with the initial SGs.

The Hell Club minis look... interesting...

Moar like The Others: UP to 7 Sins, amIrite?

I think I guessed 4 Sins in the starter earlier in the thread. I'm NOT going to buy 5 add-on packs, especially not big 40+ dollars ones. Sucks that the Avatar of Sloth is my least favourite one. Lets see what is given in SGs and what not, but blergh. I don't need all 7. I want Gluttony and Wrath. I bet they'll be paid add-ons then

Ah, well, rip me off, if you must, it's my last KS, anyway. More money here might mean I'm not buying Black Plague in the PM (though I want that Abominorat).

I would guess that there will be an expansion box in the higher pledge level which would have the third sin. I suspect we will get 2 of the remaining 4 free as stretch goals with the final 2 being addons.

Yep, but a more accurate name for the base game at this point in time should surely be The Others; Two Sins?

The Hell Cenobite Club figures are excellent, I'm hoping that the stretch goals will provide some more variations.

Or possibly "The Others: Are Not Included"

We have a winner!

Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Pure Win !

7 Heroes
5 Hellclub
18 Acolytes
2 Sin sets (Pride & Sloth w/ 1 Avatar, 6 Aboms, 1 Controller ea)
= 46 minis in the box

5 Sin sets TBD
= 40 minis in the wings

For a $75-90 + S&H CMoN game pledge, the KS package must include ALL 5 Sins.

Wouldn't 5 sins = 45 miniatures?

Either way....that's a lot of miniatures!

We'll see soon enough - like in an hour and a half!

(Well, we'll see some of it in an hour and a half!)

I counted each Sin like this:
1 Avatar
6 Abominations
1 Controller
= 8 models per Sin.

x5 Sins
= 40 models.

I think we'll need to wait to the end to see whether the base pledge will include all Sins, or if they're breaking them off in an expansion of some sort.

I know this is nitpicky, but personally I wouldn't have called it "7 sins" aren't 7 in the box. They should have just called it "Deadly Sins"

Shouldn't it have started by now, or have I got the starting time wrong?

Another 40 mins to go.

If we end up with all 7 sins in the box, what would be left for add ons? More heroes?

Eh, I'm sure a sin or two end up as add ons.

More heroes would be the obvious add, but the game itself is designed around a maximum "pool" of 7 heroes. I guess you could have a different group of heroes in the active pool, but oddly, even the pool is tightly-constructed around 1 Leader 2 shooters, 2 fighters & 2 tanks. And we got a 2nd Leader to swap.

The 7 Sins motif and design around 7s carries into the Acolytes being of 7 factions/flavors. While this kind of limitation is fine for a board game, it limits future expansion to some extent. With 3 flavors of Acolytes in the box (6 models each), that leaves 4 more flavors of Acolytes to release.

Also, it is completely baffling why the Sins total 8 models, while the Acolytes are 6 per faction - the way the game is, it should have been 7 total models per faction...

I grabbed a $90 EB, and will let this ride to see whether it will be worth $110 after S&H is added.

Right now, the game looks like this:

8/7 Heroes

5/5 Hell Club members
2/7 Sins (8 models each)
3/7 Acolytes (6 models each)

There are at least the 5 Sins and 4 Acolytes to unlock, plus whatever Hell Club and Heroes are waiting in the wings.

It's live and the page is Zombicide levels of lag my EB went through though

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coolminiornot/the-others-7-sins/description

Mine too.

My Early Bird pledge is still being processed, hopefully it will go through.

Edit: Yay, it worked!

And it is already funded - to the surprise of...no one!

if you didn't get an EB pledge might as well hold back before they scale up the stretch goals after they see how much they made the first few hours...

Indeed.

Funny how they never have the SG list up at the start.

And the first goal is... a dice bag :/

CMoN tend to stick to $25k stretch goals up to $300k then $30k thereafter until closer to $800k or so they don't bump up the stretch goals based on initial funding.

Da da da da dahhh - a $25K dice bag! Well, they have become standard in Guillotine Games KSes, but not exactly leading with their strongest foot.

Correct, first SG is a dice bag after $25k.

Which is now in the bag...

Oh, boy, we're getting a dice bag! <.<
