And it's still 2weeks away.
I don't think I mentioned before in this thread but just to let people know I have sold some terrain pieces to zealot before which are in the shop (a long time ago) nothing of it appearing on the kickstarter (I think) but just getting that out there.

Looks like this is going live tomorrow. Should be interesting.

It's live, I've gone in with an Early Bird pledge (although it only means early shipping rather than discount in this case). Looks fantastic!

Looks good, but I have to say the KS design is pretty horrid.  The levels are a bit confusing, the "gold coin" system is rather silly.  This really should have been simplified.  I'll probably get in at the Classic crawl level later in the month.

Agreed. I'm still not sure if I've paid for a bunch of doors and furniture, or whether I also get 10 'gold coins' as well. Or if I have to swap something out to get the coins lol

Actually I think the gold coin aspect is really good. It allows people to build their own pledges around the pre-designed Heroquest based sets.

Where the swap is offered, you get the doors by default unless you opt to swap them out for gold instead. The £38 Dungeon Critter pledge gets the pieces shown (Portcullis/chests/traps/table/stairs/skulls/bones) plus all level 1 free stretch goals. You swap out all the doors for 18 gold to spend and it already has another 10 gold included so you get 28 gold in total to buy add-ons.

Looked up the KS yesterday and put off deciding what to pledge because I have no freaking clue what the heck is at what level.  What's up with the coins?  How many coins do what?

Maybe I was just tired from a very long day at work and when I'm fresher tomorrow I can figure things out.

This looks great!  Excited about this one, quality scenery is always a welcome addition.

I also like the Gold coins part of this, nice that I can swap out the doors which I have almost no use for and can then be sure to use them to grab any pieces that I like.

Postage to me in the US isn't too painful either.  Thumbs up from me.
When fighting the thousand, you must still defeat them one at a time.

I understand the concept but it's horribly laid out.  And they need to simply have two or three pledges, and some "all coin" options - none of the "swap your doors for..." stuff.  They're endlessly complicating the system when it comes time to pack and ship stuff.  That's a little silly.

I'm still going to pledge, no question, but some companies need to lose the desire to cater to every single possible whim/arrangement when selling products - particularly when seeking KS pledgers/buyers.  Just not a well laid-out design regarding the information.  :D
