Decided to pledge, seeing as Victoria Lamb has a hand in this one, one way or the other. Interesting to see that this is limited to 4500 pledgers though.

Also, both goals have been smashed.

**lord_blackfang**

Well, here we go.

Are ROW subsidizing US shipping again?

**NTRabbit**

When I finished the pledge sequence there were 34 backers, but it's still not registered as backed, just processing. Gonna be annoyed if I miss wave 1 because of it.

Core set plus lizardmen and insect bonus figures:

Spoiler:

**BrookM**

And gak, my pledge is still being processed, not looking good.

Shipping to the Netherlands is $41.79 for a $100 pledge right now.

Sort of - We pay "actual shipping costs" and they pay nowt. You would think it would be "actual shipping costs less the cost of US postage"?

**NTRabbit**

Easily within the first 50, but ended up #1173 and nearly missed wave 1 because of whatever bs was going on

**LavuranGuard**

In the same boat - been processing for ages.

They will add more limited pledge levels when they need to, they seperate people into batches/waves for shipping.

I think I'm gak out of luck with wave one, I think I got in, but it is still processing!

**LavuranGuard**

Same here still... :(

**lord_blackfang**

I'm #155, tho I might make someone really happy and drop out on the last day, like I did with Bones 2.

Looks like we'll hit 1000% funding before the first stretch goal is even updated.

**Nostromodamus**

Love how people are demanding SG reveals and more updates when Reaper already put out an update explaining what their plan is during the initial rush.

Remember; reading is your friend...

**NTRabbit**

Kickstarter broke, there are currently 2066/2000 wave 1 backers, and the number is still going up

**Mathieu Raymond**

I'm not on their newsletter, would you mind sharing? Just out of sheer curiosity.

Reaper haven't actually done what they said, though.

Maybe the same problem as with Zombicide? KS server ran out of steam...

**LavuranGuard**

stuck in some kind of limbo - says I'm a backer, but I can't post messages.

KS has indeed been broken

**Tannhauser42**

Kickstarter is definitely having problems. Took three minutes to process my pledge, another five to receive the email confirming the pledge, and I still haven't received the email for the first update. If Reaper actually manages to successfully make any changes to the page within this first hour, it will be a minor technological miracle.

**highlord tamburlaine**

Mine went through easy peasy, but now I have nothing to do but stare at what we know we're already getting.

Guess I'll go paint stuff til we see some updates.

**Nostromodamus**

I wonder if the funding total is also throttled like it was at the start of Black Plague.

That started to jump by the tens of thousands when KS finally caught up.

**Ian Sturrock**

Meh. In for "Remind Me" and giving the final deals a good dose of looking at.

I really liked all the stuff I got in Bones II, but the failure to sort out an EU shipping deal, when that has, since then, become standard, is putting me right off.

**BrookM**

Wow, almost an hour later and I'm still stuck on processing.

**SilverMK2**

Waiting to see if this one has anything I really want. Loved bones 1, bones 2 was ok... may just be boned out

**adamsouza**

Saw it live, pledged $100 without even looking at what was being offered.
Looked at the figures and the 1st $60,000 stretch goal.
Looked at total $313,154

They need to add more stretch goals

**Sinful Hero**

Pledged for wave 3. Was just in and out at around a minute. Used the iPhone app though, if that makes a difference.

They will, as soon as KS lets them.

Right now it's the same situation as Zombicide had, with KS Servers trying to catch up.

**LavuranGuard**

Any idea how they'll sort out those of use who pledged for wave one, but have been stuck in processing for over an hour. Do we just get bumped to wave 2 which is filling up on it's own, or booted out and have to repledge at whatever wave is then open?

**adamsouza**

If it's any consolation Wave 2 ships in the same month as Wave 1
