funded Reaper Bones 5: Enthusiasm and Commentary thread

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

Ok, its close enough to the end that I feel comfortable going in.  Wave 15 should be pretty close to the last wave shipped.  Not to budget for Middle Daughter college visits next week and see how much more I can pledge.

Lucky!   Up here in in central Maryland it's low 40s!  Freeze warning for tomorrow.

Meanwhile, I moved to central Texas from Maryland partly for the usual heat and it's currently 29.

Looks like a strong finish.  I see the dragon getting unlocked then we will see.

But you are much closer to Denton than I am. No way I can even consider the wrap party tomorrow.

There been any recent mention of Chronoscope anywhere?  Between the stress of moving and the lack of interest in the current expansions, I've had trouble keeping up on things.

There's an expansion and an encounter.. we just haven't gotten to them yet..

Be about the same as me making a trip to Miami. 3.5 hour drive, roughly. Would probably drive up in the evening, overnight in a motel, enjoy the party,  overnight again, drive back Sunday morning.

 

Basically what I did for Shark Con in Aug

I'm not pledging my cash limit for the KS,

instead, I am maximizing my fun, by pledging an amount that covers all my Must-Have add-ons and the doubles I want from the core. 

that way I get to decide hour by hour if I really need each new unlock. 

ill delay the core set purchase for another month- I had a spreadsheet that was calculating how much the coreset was worth to me - it now just says YES instead of numbers. 

My starting budget was 200.  so far I'm still on target.

 

I have regretted buying expansions in the past, so I will punt on that decision but if I don't get dark depths than the Goroloth and a dragon turtle from KS4 become must haves.

That mousling looks like he could kill Sir Forscale by sitting on him.  I really hope they make them smaller.

Too big! Too big! Do not want!!

Hopefully we get to them, and they are interesting at least.  Otherwise I guess I'm getting 2 ships......
I'll try to keep an eye on the KS as it counts down but tomorrow is a pack all the everythings that have avoiding being packed until now day....

Yep! I headed up to Denton for ReaperCon this year but probably will have to skip the wrap party for personal reasons.

 

That rose gold, though...

[turbocooler]

Quick question if anyone knows. Is ReaperCon always in the Aug/Sept timeframe?  My company has offices in Austin.  My plan would be to take a trip to Austin then drive up to Denton for the Con and go home via Dallas Airport.  It is probably the only way I would ever get to go.  I am in Austin a few times a year anyway but for 2020 I can change my schedule so the two happen at the same time.
