3x what Zapocolypse raised.  WOW!

For a boardgame, that is indeed impressive. It really helped that almost every backer chose the $100 pledge for all the goodies

And there WERE a lot of good goodies!

I'm not clear, are we able to add to our initial pledge for optional items?  I signed on in the long-ago days of 160k, but they added a lot of new kit since.  I plopped down 120, but I'd like to add another 40 to get the other minis and the extra boards.

Anyone have an idea here?

On a similar question- I pledged $75, to get the game, thinking it would prompt me for the postage $25 (as I am in the UK) later on in the prosess, but it never did- was I suposed to pledge $100, and if so what do I do about it?

[Cherno]

Yes, you were supposed to pledge the level plus $25 (or was it $20?) for international shipping. I'm pretty sure this is covered in the FAQ or similar on teh kickstarter page

I'm also pretty sure that changing the pledged amount is not possible any more through kickstarter, now that the fundraising has closed. I guess you could always try to ask them if you could send them the rest via PayPal.

My thoughts exactly.
Try contacting the people at coolminiornot, that way you'll know for sure.

[Rob_bresnen]

I contacted them and they are not worried. They said they will send out an email when the product is ready to shift (in september) to see what I want and to sort out any additional payments. I would guess from this that I can also buy more stuff, in addition to what I pledged for, but I guess we will just have to wait and see.

[Too Bo Coo]

Did anyone get their survey yet?  It seemed from KS that is was sent already, but I'm not too clear...

[Rob_bresnen]

I thought we would get it when they were ready to ship- ie September

[Dewbakuk]

There is supposed to be one heading out in the next day or two.

Anyone had an email from Amazon to say they've been charged? I've not but there were comments that they've been recieved on the Zombicide thread.

I just caught wind of this game due to a friend - but to me it looks very similar to Last night on Earth - a game that is very good. The only difference seem to be the shift from trying to survive the zombie apocalypse like in LNoE to hacking away at the hordes of undead in Zombiecide?

Don't mean to be negative but what exactly is the difference between this and LNoE, it just seems like a copycat (with a bit cooler looking zombies) 

I do like this whole "Kickstarter" trend though, lots of interesting projects of all kinds get funded by fans this way.

[Cherno]

I don't think it looks too similar to LNoE. LNoE is a survivors vs. zombie master game with playable event cards, whereas Zombicide looks more like a board game version of All Things Zombie, with cooperative gameplay and zombies spawning based on noise from weapon fire etc.

[Anatoli]

OK thanks for the brief explanation Cherno.
Based on the pictures alone I just thought it looked very similar in style and execution.
