Shame there is nothing more to it.
Still, I'll keep my 70+30$ pledge and enjoy a quite massive Viking army with loads of awesome monsters, characters

It's still running, for another couple of hours. I was in the middle of trying to snag a free EB when kickstarter went boom.

Finished at $905,682 I'd say that's considerably more than they expected 2 weeks ago.

I wonder if it will encourage CMON to keep things simpler/cheaper in the future,
as I suspect part of the reason this did so well was that competeists only had to find $100 or so for everything (excluding the art book), rather than $300 in the campaigns that had lots of add ons

No mention of this?
There's a link there on the update page- seems like a tower defense/ castle panic type game. With miniatures naturally. Lots of underground lava monster thingees.
I'm a real sucker for CMON boardgames it seems. Hope that one will be as simple and smooth!

Probably no mention of it on this thread because this is a Blood Rage thread, and that game is a different product.

True.
CMON know how to feed into our KS addictions, especially when there are piles of miniatures at stake.

CMoN has been simplifying projects and pledges considerably. This is generally good for everyone, having fewer things that can go wrong.
$75 base game & SGs
$30 expansion
=$105 for all playables
+$25 art book
= $130 to be compete

B-seiged looks like a terrible game. The minis are OK, but they don't do anything for me. Also, it's not Tower Defense, as you're not placing defensive towers. The game has more in common with Space Invaders.
I'm saving my pennies for the Others : 7 Sins, as the monsters are far better.

I'm still waiting to see how Fenrir turns out! Hopefully we'll see him soon.
The Others will most certainly be a big draw for CMON. At least that one my brother might pledge for rather than make me eat those costs as usual.
And B-Sieged reminds me of Castle Panic, except with minis. Which isn't a bad thing. Which totally is a Tower Defense game too. But we'll save that conversation for the end of April.

I thought B-sieged was interesting and fun when I demoed it at gencon. Like Highlord, it reminded me of a more advanced version of Castle Panic, with better components.
I hate the name.

How many figures in total? It didn't seem to be anywhere near "massive", and far less than is (had been?) usual for CMoN campaigns..

With the shamans and the extra clan, isn't the count around 50 humans, plus all the monsters and gods? That's not a bad haul for 70~75 dollars.

By my count, Blood Rage has the following scale miniatures:
. 4 +3 "big" monsters
. 2 +4 man-sized monsters
. 36 +9 Vikings
. +6 Gods
. +12 Viking Shamans
= 76 scale miniatures
In addition, Blood Rage has several physical tokens:
. 4 +1 ships
. 4 +1 Clan buttons
. +3 game tokens
. +20 Clan statuettes
= 33 non-scale tokens
= 109 total physical objects
CMoN met their "100 minis for $100" providing 76 minis for $75, plus another 33 tokens and a board game of sorts for the other $10.

Has the 100 minis for 100 dollars become anything of an official motto yet for CMON?
Because it sure seems like most of their campaigns end up that way.
I know Wrath of Kings was 200 figures for 200 dollars. Did they have similar slogans in earlier campaigns, and I just forgot?

CMoN did 100+ minis for $100-ish for Zombicide 1, then Sedition Wars, then Zombicide 2, then Zombicide 3, now Blood Rage.
"100 minis for $100" is a fair characterization of what they do.
I really hope the Others : 7 Sins goes this route.

And you actually get 4 of each of the clan buttons so add another 15 non scale tokens to your total

You sure? I think it's just the one Clan button racing around the track (which should have been upgraded to a Clan statuette).

I think your mixing up clan tokens of which each clan gets 4 and the glory marker which is the button each clan gets 1 plastic glory marker
Glory markers 1 per clan
Clan token 4 of each

Yup. I ID'd the "Glory markers" as "buttons" (because that's what they look like, being flat and round), and the "Clan tokens" as "statuettes" (because that's what they look like, being tiny little statues).
