Spinespur Kickstarter

[The Breaker]

Hey Chaps,

Comfy Chair Games are relaunching their horror survival skirmish game by way of kickstarter.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/97182592/spinespur-the-survival-horror-miniatures-game

It's a cool blend of Gothic Horror / Slasherflick with a great set of rules. It's heaps of fun to play. Give it a look.

 I was just about to post this but was unsure wheich section it should go into.

 Got most of the miniatures from when it first came out.Great to see this kickstarter to get the rest of the miniatures made and new one's too.

 Will be going for the 65$ one to get all the new pieces.Some great free miniatures too if the stretch goals are met.

Spinespur's minis are pretty good. If I was richer, that's another KS I'll follow. Yet I ain't, and as with some other KS I will pretend it doesn't exist :/

Same here, although I might put a bit more on (as much as the missus lets me that is  ).

Hey Guys,

I was just making my way here to let you guys know about the Kickstarter. I have a lot of free (and very cool) swag when we hit those stretch goals! Best of all, when we get funded, I'm sending out FREE copies of the rulebook in PDF! This way everyone who participates will get the rules to browse and maybe choose to play! At our first goal were giving away a free mini AND the beta rules for Street Chum (The Spinespur experience building game that will re-breathe life back into your Thugs!) I'm rellay excited to for this because #1. It gives a fun new game (compatible with Spinespur) that can give you new uses for models you may not have played with for a little. #2. I get to hear feedback about the rules so we can make them as good as we possibly can!

I really appreciate you guys who are supporting us and we strive to do right by you!

Well this is certainly a Kisckstarter I will be supporting.  (as soon as I have the cash that is.)

I still enjoy playing Spinespur with my friends.

Not knowing much about Spinespur, is it easy to use non-official minis for the game?

Yep, from what I remember of the rules (I sold mine off a few years back) you can use proxy minis fairly easily.

I enjoyed the minis and the rules, but had to downsize at the time.  I'll have to check this kickstarter out!!

There is some characters, which will be hard to replace, but for thugs, torn (zombies) and such I think it will be easy to use lot of proxies.

The rules are really good and the setting is also great.

The only downside so far has been the lack of models released for the first book, which is being done now with the Kickstarter, and also there has been a great need for a set of cards for characters and weapons, which is also being done now.

So hopefully this will be funded and the game will be more widely played!

 Now fully funded and on to the stretch goals next .Will be great to be-able to complete my collection and add new pieces too.

They have added an"extras" list to the page allowing pledgers to buy models from the existing range at a discount.

This may well be the first Kickstarter that I back.

edit:  make that the first Kickstarter that I am backing.

Great game and excellent minis. I threw money at it. Comfy makes it a point to have nicely sculpted minis even for the grunts. This is one of the little companies that is well worth you support and attention. It's lots of fun and low model count! Ya, it's easy to proxie but why? The minis are so damn nice. Who else makes a half naked clown with a ball bat and a bottle of jack or a three headed werewolf?
In the immortal words from Yo Gabba Gabba "Try it, you might like"
( that will give you nightmares!)

More extras have been added, you can now pledge for the new minis individually.

Currently less than $500 to go for the free pdf of the street gangs rules expansion and first free figure (big thug with chainsaw?)

I've looked at it and think it looks great, but sadly my wallet hasn't got the power to help out. The sad fact is that I have too many games that are already in a similar vein and it's hard to get people to play those without adding another. I hope you can have good success though, it looks great!

Similar? Really? Such As?
