I think they inadvertently timed this poorly. I probably would have been in on this but am backing battletech instead, also CMON have released another zombicide so miniature gamers are really needing to make a choice there if they are into kivkstarters. Different genre with battletech and different game style with zombicide.

Mantic's also making a mistake competing against... Mantic. :D

fyi, Mantic has its spring sale, including the RPG and terrain Crazy Boxes. SF and Fantasy sold out.

EDIT: Beasts of War thread on the Crazy Boxes. Based on the Hellboy plastic I received, I'm definitely passing on DS.

This appears to really be to KS a new set of rules.  Most of those models don't seem to be new - the terrain is almost all available now, the goblins don't look much different than the recent set I purchased.  Other than the PCs, I don't see new models really.

That was more or less how they launched the last one as well - random heroes and characters...and then a ton of KS "filler" which was existing models/products.

Keeping production costs as low as they can I guess.

The miniatures are all new figures - new sculpts and poses (apart from the Goblin Banggit - which is currently only available in a multi-piece resin miniature).
The miniatures are in a similar style, but are different.
The terrain pieces are existing product, but not packaged in the same way, and the Legendary Pledge level is fine for those people who already have the terrain.

Just over a day left now, and has had a load of unlocks, including  translations of the game and expansions into French, German and Italian (though not yet Spanish).

I'm keeping my pledge and looking forwards to this game! In the end I decided to skip Maladum, I know I will hardly play it although it will be a great game. It's just not really what I want in a dungeon crawler. Dungeon Saga comes closer to what I seek and I love the miniatures. With the way they cast Hellboy and Walking Dead I'm sure these will be great for painting.
