Conan [Monolith Boardgame] - KS over and funded

[Duncan McDane]

Sick. In a very good way  .
Also suitable for use as the thing in the lake / watcher in the water in Lord of the Rings.

I think it's a very skillful style of painting - perhaps not to everyone's taste because it's got such a distinct 'flavour' to it - but superbly executed.

Highlight to white is also good for display in photos and on monitors, which have a more limited contrast ratio than the human eye.

I don't know: this actually worked out well for me as I couldn't afford all the add-ons I wanted during the kick starter and now I can

I don't have a problem with it. What actually sucks is it will probably be two years before we actually see anything in the mail or get to play...

So the reward for us backers that have handed over their cash at the earliest possible moment is ..... that we started waiting earlier? We could simply have paid next weekend?

Hmmm. Am I being negative? Or is it just the heat...?

Pledge Manager delayed to august the 20th :

Quote from Monolith :

There is no easy way to put this, but we are going to have to push back the Pledge manager until next month, the 20th to be precise. I know a lot of you were looking forward to locking in your orders, however we have, once again, been forced to compromise.
Why?

In order to ensure the best shipping deal for everyone, wherever they are in the world, we have been working out partnerships with different shipping and handling services. We have had an issue with those meant to handle Australia and Asia.

What does it mean?

It means we now have to find another partner and work out an agreement. We then have to take the prices given to us and program them into the pledge manager which then needs to be tested in order to ensure there are no errors. This is, sadly, a time consuming process. However, in the interest of fairness, we will not let our Asian and Australian backers down when it comes to ensuring the best prices for them.

I know I’m sounding like a broken record by now, but I can only apologize on behalf of Monolith and thank you again for your patience. As always, we will keep you informed of any further developments.

However…

All is not doom and gloom. The counterpart to this announcement is that this delay should not affect the final shipping dates. Despite the fact that the pledge manager is pushed back again, work continues behind the scenes with pre-production. The factory in China has already cast the master pieces for the moulds and we hope to have photos of these for you in the near future.

This is only a minor setback, albeit a frustrating one, for all parties concerned.

Once again, thank you for your understanding.

So far it's going as I expected  Keeping fingers crossed....

Pledge Manager delayed to august the 20th :

Quote from Monolith :

And so my wallet relaxeth and breatheth unto calmnessneth. Now I have money to waste...I mean spend on Zombicide Black Plague and cheap Dust product being dumped by US online stores, and maybe Reaper Bones 3. And getting a first edition of Descent from Noble Knight's vintage games section. Or I could get Imperial Assault expansions. And maybe a copy of last year's Space Hulk or the new Assasinorum Execution Force or Age of Sigmar maybe? Or I might get those The Adventurers board games from FFG(Pyramid of Horus or Temple of Chac). Or the Temple of Elemental Evil adventure board game form WoTC. Or a copy of Level 7 Omega Protocol?

DIE WALLET! DIE DIE DIE!

[Lawful Evil]

I regret cancelling my kickstarter backing for this project, especially now that the pledge manager has been moved so far back.

[Sterling Moose]

I'm glad that the intention is that the Pledge Manager will stay open for a month.  I've totally forgotten which figures I wanted against the amount I pledged...............the whole thing seems so long ago.
