I'm just pledging a dollar and buying what I want in the pledge manager 4 to 6 months from now, but that is a very tempting expansion.

Haven't they had a policy for quite some time that you must buy the core game to get any add ons?

Yep! On BGG : https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2604218/character-homage

Yep. FAQ: "No, you will need to have a base pledge ($100 or $140) in order to be able to add any Optional Buys to it."

Those Minotaurs. Tempting. But I haven't even played through all of Black Plague, let alone gotten ZCide 2.0. I even skipped the awesome looking Egypt game (Ankh?) because moar plastic pile and shipping, can't justify this. But...Minotaurs. The BP one is the best Abomination by far and those would be a great addition.


The BP one is bigger than those, though, or is that new survivor much bigger than the older one they used for comparisons?

The latest Kickstarter update for the chibi style Marvel United game teased an X-Men version of that as the next project.

The All-In Gameplay Pledge is up for $240 now. A lot of people were dreaming very high on what that last add-on would be, but of course CMON did their typical "lol wtf am i doing" move and put out a weak, themeless abomination box, so there's a lot of negative Nellies in the comments.

The theme is Godzilla vs King Kong to tie into the new movie. Doesn’t really fit with the Wild West theme but that’s not uncommon for CMON Kickstarter’s.

The only Zombicide I missed out on was the fantasy version (oddly enough). Getting this one so the figures can do double duty in Deadlands .

That’s why I asked how long?
They seem to be negotiating a number of popular IP’s. So I wouldn’t at all be surprised if it comes to be.

> How long before we see a Marvel: Zombicide based on the Marvel Zombies storyline?

Sounds good. CMON, of course, has been working with Marvel, and it depends on the boardgame IP. I've noticed that more hobby games are simultaneously using very similar IP, especially popular ones like DC.

Personally, I'd like a Piratecide. The Z standalone could even be a Rum and Bones crossover, expansion, or standalone (mercenaries or human crew vs. undead crew) or vice-versa.

Some backer requests weren't fulfilled in the Undead KS, and the funding looks good, so mebbe a S2 in a few years.

Marvel United is often on sale under $25. Just missed the coupon on Amazon that reduced it to $16.

CMON spoiled some of the updated tactics cards coming down the pipe for the Lannisters today.

They look flat out scary and very thematic.
https://cmon.com/news/visions-in-the-flames-lannisters-in-2021



I'm excited to see the Lannisters get some of the spotlight as they have suffered a bit under the last edition.

If you are unfamiliar with the game, you might not be able to tell it, but this army plays very thematically with lots of counterplay, and frustrating your opponents plans.

Tywin is an absolute beast on the tactics board as he should be.

Holy moly some of those prices are outrageous. Glad I got the blood rage stuff in the Time Machine.

$130 for 5th player extras, $90 for Hili and $80 for Fenrir.

I don't have Hili but I'm not enough of a completionist to care at that price.

I'm almost certain MM just checked current ebay prices and set them a few dollars less figuring that those 3 items would just be scalped for a higher price so why shouldn't they make the money then? The 5th player extra set use to sell for around $300 before a bunch more came out during time machine. Not excusing it at all but I'm sure that's the rational.

Though it's odd that Fenrir is so expensive when they have over 20 of it all the others are less then 10.

Yeah, but what did you expect ? With CMON's artificial "limited/exclusive" releases, it's only the natural consequence.

This is their model now. And it works, people blindly throw their money at their face in fear of missing the last KS "exclusive deal". It has no end on purpose.

Yep. As a KS addict if I really want a CMON game, I'll back it. Otherwise, I'll wait for a sale (an actual sale, not what MM is doing) and get a base game at 1/2 the price of the pledge plus shipping.

I won't get everything I want, but I won't be paying for it, either.

This is really only applicable to the US.
If I were to order it from MM instead, I’m paying more due to the shipping and exchange rate.
And I’m not guaranteed to get everything I want. Only what’s ‘left’ is available and usually at a much higher price.
For those in the US it makes perfect sense to wait for retail or MM to grab the leftovers.
But for those of us outside the US where shipping gets really expensive, it doesn’t.
I still back the projects I like and want through KS because it’s less of a headache and expense to track it all down later.
If that costs me a few bucks more in the long run it’s worth the extra cost to not have to hunt down product.

Very rarely do many of the Canadian shops get the full run of product from the KS, and it’s always more expensive.
I’ll continue to back what I like and what I want for convenience sake.
