Plastic Dashboard

Whatever points that pic get for "Artistic Effort" it loses double due to not being particularly useful!

It tells us a few things..
The layout isn't the same as Z:BP IIRC.
It doesn't look like the backpack slot idea carried over.
They have a nice camera

All I know is that we're running out of runway for May.

Yeah, I would say 31st of May is the only date that it may launch on but is likely to slip back to June.

I think they already waffled on a launch date with a 'May/June' announcement, didn't they?

Wouldn't be surprised at all by a first or second week of June launch.

Really thoughtfully of that dashboard to get a boudoir shoot done for its 15th wedding anniversary.

Or later.

I'm not gonna lie - that made me LOL!

Well, there we have it ladies and gentlemen!

And I'm OK with this!

More time to save up, and hopefully this will mean more monsters, heroes and stretch goals too...which means I'll have to save up even more!

I'm up for some Darkness but I don't think I'm in the mood for Massive amounts of it. Maybe there will be Medium Darkness for more casual fans.

It seems interesting but waiting for it to launch for a long period kind of kills the buzz for me.

Does this qualify as Medium?

Really? I'm OK with the buildup/hype/whatever - no big whoop either way, as they say in France.

And as for your Medium Darkness request - just get the 'core box pledge' - I'm sure that should suffice.

Go on...

Exactly. That's my intent for now. If it looks like I should add more, I'll do so. It's not like Rue Morgue or the other core boxes lacked adequate content.

I don't either but that doesn't mean that I love checking the thread to see if the KS live. I'm not sure I can handle the anticipation.

No that is still far to much Darkness.

Too much Darkness, not enough Cold Bloodedness.

Is that what the core pledge is going to consist of? A fair amount. I like the big spider.

Love that teaser pic, cincy!

I have a draft email to get back to you, btw. It's coming. Been busy as gak.

oooooh, that spider in the back looks awesome!

No worries, I can relate (and might target a later timeline, anyway). Thanks for making time to get the pics here

I have SOOO many dungeon exploring miniature board games. I feel like we've had at least 5 new and sequels to others pop up in the last year.

As long as the minis are good, I'm all for it, I just wish I had the time to play more of them.

I'm definitely interested in this one, nice figures, Cool mini does a good job on their figures and games. No zombies, yet anyway. To be fair, as long as they aren't the central focus of something I'm fine with them. I'm zombie'd out.

Has anyone asked cincydooley if there's a miniatures only pledge level yet?

From my experience, I wouldn't count on it. I can't recall one in the time I've been following CMoN Kickstarters, which would be Zombicide season 3 and on. Feel free to correct me if there are any that I've missed.

I can, however, say in full confidence that none of the projects that I've personally backed had a miniatures only pledge.

True, but it's always fun to ask.

Presumably they'll just add a few cards or whatever to support the ZBP zombies (and wolves).

That would be smart/make sense/synergy!

There will be no miniatures only pledge. You can, however, make a full pledge and donate all the awful cardboard to your local game store to use for organized play, If you were so inclined. ;-)

You should see an announcement about the launch date on Friday, I believe. Not quite the wait I anticipated. ;-)

IIRC, CMON will have an add-on to crossover Z:BP to MD. I'm gonna guess that the add-on will have stats for heroes as well as zombies?

CMON have now mentioned on Facebook to keep an eye out tomorrow for a release date announcement so looks like the announcement may have moved up a day (or the person posting as CMON has wires crossed).

From CMON and Guillotine Games comes Massive Darkness! Launching June 7th, 3:00PM EST on Kickstarter. Pick your Heroes, choose a Class, and fight hordes of monsters as your group delves deeper into the dark dungeons of this new cooperative board game! Please help us spread the word and share with your friends.
