Put a pledge in, but didn't go with survivor level, just the basic game and enough to choose the expansions I want and some extra minis.

Not keen on the new Gorm expansion though.

I got one of the Black Friday survivor level specials, but am strongly considering backing out.

I see original survivor heads, compatible with the armor packs, are being added as a new goal.

I really like this idea. It gives you the ability to start a character and continue using the face so as to be recognizable as the character gains new equipment. It seems to give the game more continuity (something that it struck me as lacking from the start) and I think they should think about adding more heads from the original survivor minis with the different armor headdress added. If your character progresses, shouldn't it be somewhat recognizable even with the new kit?

Up to 590 now! Some seriously good stuff being added lately, although I'm still not a fan of Gorm.

Meh, the figures are a bit too curvy for my tastes.  Plus the scale is odd and the game idea doesn't really draw me in.  Not to mention I already tapped out my funds on a few other KS projects.  It will be interesting to see how far it goes though.

Plus the scale is odd

Regardless of one's thoughts on the game or the minis, that's one decision by the designers that boggles me. Why cut yourself off from almost every other game like that? But then they also do those hyper-limited runs so odd non-confirmist decisions that hurt their business more than they help it (I suppose they do give it a bit of a "unique" aura) seem to be par for them.

Not that I can really take issue with their business decisions given the money they're already raising. But it could be more.

I was sold on the Dragon King expansion, ther other creatures are incredible (except the Gorn thing, not too keen on that lol)
I jumped in on the $400 savior x3 plus added a few of those pinup minis, granted not everyone likes them but I love to paint minis and I dont care what they are :D

I got in at a middling level. I haven't done any of the "add ons" yet but I am fairly certain they give you the opportunity to double or triple your pledge level pretty fast!  o_o ;D

 ;D ;D ;D I am now up to $500.00 (about £310.00) That is for the Survivor pledge and all the game content expansions. I have enough left over for the two remaining game expansions to be released, not inc these last two I am getting 89 miniatures some of them very large for just under £3.50 each and then cost is going to go down as other stuff is added. Plus I will be getting the game and components, sounds like a reasonable deal to me.......
Although this has eaten up about 4 months hobby budget, only three months left of reduced hobby budget.

If anyone's still interested, there's about an hour left to pledge, and they are about to break $2 million!  :o
