I'm about 90% sure I'll buy back in with a base pledge and the Black Plague cards when the Pledge Manager goes up. The stretch goals are really good.

Just this time of year tends to be a bit clogged with releases since everyone likes doing stuff around Gencon.

Same here. Just got some B-Day cash from my parents, it's been about 10 years since that has happened. I'm sure the game will be great, but finances have me at $1, but an awesome DD person said I could order the add ons through them, so I'm torn. The money I got could buy a ton of other things now.

I was on the fence about backing up until they released the black plague add on, just as my pledge was being delivered, well played CMON, well played.

On a related note, following backers' suggestions we have decided that the back of the Lava tiles will contain copies of the Crystal tiles, and the back of the Crystal tiles will contain copies of the Lava tiles. And to add even more layout possibilities, we will be mirroring the art on the back of these tiles, thus creating new corridor and room setups in most of the reverse sides!

Six double sided Lava/Crystal map tiles would give us enough of each to make entire maps of either. That would be great.
I would like to suggest that the art be mirrored, to create 6 different tiles. It wouldn't cost any more for additional origial art and would provide more diversity in the tiles.

Coincidence ?

I think not....

You're welcome people.

Your shoulder okay? I mean patting yourself on the back can really hurt .

But they were all great suggestions, just had to reality check you so your ego doesn't get too big.

That's what the smiley face was for. I figured I'd take credit for it before any else did.

Although, I scanned through the posts from the update and I didn't see anyone else mention it. There is no way I'm going to read through the general comments. That place makes a bad day here look like a walk in the park.

You want tiles, they got tiles



The Tiles Set Optional Buy contains all the Massive Darkness tiles, for you to create any dungeon layout you can dream of, with the possibility of some truly epic maps. This set contains 15 double-sided game tiles, including the same 9 tiles from the Massive Darkness core box, as well as the 3 new Crystal Tiles and 3 new Lava Tiles. It will also contain a copy of the 'Crystal and Lava' campaign booklet.





Sicarius is a very straightforward assassin. He studies his target, finding the best way to take it down, then executes an unbelievably precise attack that kills them before they can utter a sound. His melee attacks are completely lethal, automatically dealing an extra Wound and an extra Hit. His recommended Bloodmoon Assassin class may give those attacks an extra automatic Hit, adding up to +2 Hits and +1 Wound on every Melee attack!

$110K for that...

...OK!

And so begins the 'sprint' of the Final Four days!

At least the calf/ankle area on the actual model looks better than the picture.

But yea the last several SG's have been lackluster imo.

Hoping to see something else I like before it ends *shrug*

I'm sure that they've got something...


...(puts on sunglasses) massive planned for the last two days.

I'm afraid your humor is too dark for me.

I would of also bro +1 exalted

Interesting that there's basically no final bump so far. No closing buzz to make a big "U" shape like in other projects.

I wouldn't expect a final bump until the 48 hour warning messages go out in 14 hours time.

24 million initial estimate?

Sounds goofy now but one day a table top project will hit it.

It's not really an estimate, just a projection based on that day's numbers.

next Stretch Goal is tired of hiding under a bridge, and now wants to join the battle!





The Low Troll is a resilient brute. What it lacks in intelligence, it makes up for in strength and stamina. It wields its heavy hammer with little skill, but if it hits you, it's gonna hurt. The real trick, however, is putting the Low Troll down for good. Even when you think you've dealt it the killing blow, the Low Troll just seems to be too dumb to realize it, and keeps fighting anyway. Whenever it is supposed to be eliminated, you must roll three Yellow dice. If any Bams are rolled, the Low Troll remains in the game with 1 Health!



a nice looking troll

but I still want another Mob Box, paid or free

Exactly!

The 'U' shape comes from the first two days and the last two days, typically.

But that's also 'old KS' math - not sure what will happen now, especially with this campaign which, while quite good, feels....different vs. a 'typical' CMON KS.

Curses, I am liking approximately half the new stretch goals we see, which is keeping me almost precisely in the middle of this here fence.

In other news that troll is lovely!

It is kind of annoying - and funny - that CMON is trolling us with that latest stretch goal.

And not just because it is a $130K stretch goal amount, or because it is a troll!

Hail Lightbringers!

Oh, you thought this was an Optional Buy update? Sorry, we're still in Troll mode here, as we're working our way to unlock the Low Troll!

This was from an update sent about 2 hours after the Troll stretch was announced - those crazy kidders!

Here be Lizards - so last minute they aren't sculpted yet.

The Enemy Box: Reptisaurians contains:

1 Reptisaurian Warriors Boss figure
6 Reptisaurian Warriors Minion figures
1 Reptisaurian Blowgunners Boss figure
12 Reptisaurian Blowgunners Minion figures
1 Reptisaurian Agent figure
1 large Reptisaurus Rex figure
13 cards

Sorry Highlord; I couldn't ruin the surprise

Actually, in most cases, for a CMoN KS, the thing starts to climb 3 or 4 days before the end, although it's most visible in the final 48.

For this one to go so close to the wire is unusual.

Highlords will now Officially begin to Highlord it up in here!

Happy to see another Minion type - very happy!

I think this one needs another Minion freebie to really get people jumping on during the Final 48 though.

I'm assuming if this had zoomed up like BP, the Lizardmen or Ratlings would have been SG freebies.

Exactly how I feel. I also think they put the current SG's in the wrong order. The tile stuff should have been early on imo. Not near the end when it was already slowing down.

Anyway lizards seem cool enough. But like the rats Ill wait and grab them later maybe. Hopefully a bunch of other people buy them and drive us past some SG's though *poke*

I wanted more Mob and they delivered reptiloids, so I'm a happy backer

pledge raised!

I'll accept another set free if they really want to give one though!

Damn my hangover,migraine, and jet lag.

LIZARDS.

...except no lizard hero.

I will forgive them for now!

Back to recuperating!

YES! Lizardmen or draconian creatures are a must for a dungeon crawl. I too agree there should be a lizardmen or dragonborn hero. If they don't make one, I'll use the armored fella with twin axes in place of the knight with two swords from the core set.

Kudos cmon and gg... kudos. Now I need a second mortgage lol

This would be an incorrect assumption.
