@Alpharius, I believe you can based on the info given in the $1 pledge. It's says it is an invitation to the pledge manager and you can Chang your pledge anytime.

Thanks Ernster - of course it is all right there, if I'd just looked a little closer!

Well a new Add On for the campaign (While folks have been joking about a unicorn all campaign and DGG has said they would see what they could do like maybe a vampire riding a unicorn; I have to say that this is the strangest unicorn that I have ever seen )

Really enjoy John Carpenter's Vampires so I'm finding this hard to resist. (Especially since the last stretch goal)

Ash (Jack Crow) unlocked:



New optional game play mechanic to add a traitor mechanic to the game unlocked:



Also a new add on (reminds me of the vampires from The Strain even though these are based on Romanian folklore):



A little extra bling unlocked as well:

The new vampire miniatures look great except their tongues. They look more like they are based on a Dyson or Bissel vacuum cleaner than Romanian.

I think the intent on the tongues is to look like this:

Spoiler:


Sadly it is probably a little delicate for 28mm so they have grossly exaggerated the look to get the feel across without making the models uncastable.

Glory is fleeting. Obscurity is forever.

A GW Broodlord tongue would fit better.

Those long tongues are going to cause at least the male versions to tip very easily.

There's more though!

This new elder-


More minions for slayer pledges-



New combined vampire attack cards for turned hunters to use-


...and Kurivan.



Sucker (pun intended) better live up to how big his render seems to be...


Saddest thing is there was no whip slinging Belmont or D inspired hunters. Alas.

Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!

So guess that big sucker is going to be the ultimate last SG?
Why would they otherwise hide his funding amount?

That'd be a bit lame, though ...
I'd rather they just tell us 'no more, we're done'.

'Big Sucker' seems to be at $500k

Only a few hours to go and I'm stuck at Hunter EB. Would like to upgrade to Slayer, but hoping someone drops out of the Slayer EB and not sure if I would make the jump to normal Slayer pledge...

You can add the $45 to make your total $125, keep the pledge as the EB Hunter and in the pledge manager indicate you want EB Slayer instead. They mentioned you could do this in one of the updates.

Total number of EB slots remains the same, but Hunter can be Slayer by adding the funds.

I did this myself.

Received my Slayer pledge last week. Miniatures are okay-ish, some bend and broken parts, quite a bite of flash. Detail is sometimes good, sometimes not so good.
Some minis turned out really good.
Game tiles look nice enough.
Player tiles are 170g paper?? Day/night cycle tracker too. Don't understand this decision not to print them on carboard.
Haven't had a look at the rules.

Thanks for the update. Any chance we could see some comparison photos of both the good detail and bad detail miniatures along with something for scale? I'm hoping some of the creatures make their way to eBay.

This is one I wanted to back but couldn't at the time.

Figures don't look too bad.

Nothing a little paint won't help at least.

We'll be using them to finally get around to playing Ganesha's Fear & Faith with these!

*Some* of them don't look 'too bad' - but that one certainly does!

What percentage would you say fall into that mushy/washed out category?

The one I posted is the worst, with another female face mush close behind.

Most of the others are okay-ish, but with some parts that weren't properly adjusted for PVC. Dark Gate talked about re-adjusting the models for PVC in an update, but I guess they just ran out of time or simply missed to adjust everything, like hair blending seamlessly into the coat, collars that will vanish if primed, etc.

I am very disappointed that these are not on the same level of detail as Zombicide Green Horde or Rising Sun. I was expecting that level. There are more negative comments in the KS page than positive!
