Wow there's more inside the crypt? If the pattern hold up that will be at 430k! Hope we make it that far.

[ObsidianCrane]

I hope there is not too much repetition of existing Bones packs. Currently we have Zombies, Skeletons, Rats, and Kobolds in the KS.

 

I'm now tempted to can my next Reaper order until the KS is done, because yes I want monsters in multiples but I don't want to buy duplicate quantities. (eg buy 2 Kobold Blisters then get 2 Kobold blisters in the KS... actually this has happened but I really don't want to do it to much)

*most* of the future goals will include new figures, after all, this is about us making new molds. This goal was in there early to help us generate enthusiasm, and like the Dungeon Attack pack, has received great response - which helps us get the momentum we need to get inside that crypt!

I will point out that only the spear carrying skeletons, and one pose of the zombies are currently available in Bones. I an personally VERY stoked about the extra versions. The more hordes of monsters the better! This is so awesome. It's a a great mix of heroes, unique monsters, and bands of enemies. I love it.

[ObsidianCrane]

I realise that sounds pretty negative but its more about the timing. I have an order sitting there with the Ghost, Werewolf, Bugbear, and Minotaur from Bones and I have limited funds to spread between the KS and buying from the store. For example Undead Horde means I will pass on the Zombie pack (I already have enough Zombies from other sources)

 

I'd happily lay out the cash on the KS to pick up 2 more copies of the Giants and another copy of the Undead Horde to help get the momentum to get inside that crypt. It isn't like I will not buy the giants later anyway...

The timing on something like this can never be perfect for everyone. We're glad you're supporting us!

I've mentioned this elsewhere, but his does look like one of the best planned kickstarters I've taken part of. A bit of expectation, a bit of the unknown, some surprises and a whole lot of rewards...

 

Definately an E ticket ride! :)

Thanks! For the record, we're having a lot of fun, too! I'm not sure how much fun we'll be having when it's time to ship what we hope is several thousand boxes of (more than ) 71 minis all at once... but that's a happy problem - to be successful!

[DixonGrfx]

I totally get you on the timing. This is so exciting and it couldn't have come at a worse time for me. I just had to replace the roof on my house and the deductible was $1,800. Then my kid needs braces and that's $4K. Then My fence blows over in the storm last week and that repair was $450. And two weeks ago my garage door opener craps out on me. So that's a $250 expense that's currently on the back burner and ranked above the kickstarter (unless I can talk my wife into thinking minis are cooler than parking in the garage).

[ObsidianCrane]

Aren't you a door opener?

 

There $250 saved :)

 

I just want to put more into the Kickstarter truth be told... In the end I might just pledge enough to get 2x Vampire we'll see.

[DixonGrfx]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Yes. I am a door opener. But my wife is not. And she gets to park in the empty half....

Been there. A string of house issues like that is why I wasn't able to attend ReaperCon last spring. I feel for you.

[Wren]

I've been there, too. :-< I'm unpleasantly reminded of the year of all the appliances crapping out one after another! Hope you pull through okay!

[Metalchaos]

OK - We met initial funding in 30 hours. We made our 50K stretch goal in EXACTLY 24 hours (and 15 minutes!).

 

Any bets on the next goal?

 

After checking, there's a few places where that's not quite accurate. I can tell you we have planned that for the entire first map, we will show 2 goals at once, and one is always free and one is Optional. Every other one.

 

I *think* we keep the same pattern once inside the crypt, but It is late and, while I'm pumped and excited right now, I'm not 100% sure.

 

Not sure if you want to open the speculation but I have some ideas on the upcoming unveilings.

I just don’t know if I should express my thoughts as it could ruin the surprise. May I try to guess?

[odinsgrandson]

So, I'm guessing that there will be an enormous bin of miniatures that I have by the end of this.

 

I'm expecting that every time I start a new RPG campaign, we'll be pulling it out and telling each player to pick one to get painted up.

 

Also, we'll likely never want for antagonists again.

[Voladilk]

That's what I am hoping for at least!

[TaleSpinner]

I don't know, but I've got a sneaking feeling that the Mausoleum coorelates to bringing the Bones inside, i.e. to Denton. It would seem apropo.
