Oi, are you just like me running out of miniatures to paint? Or do you have a shortage of plastic miniatures in your collection?  lol

I honestly can say my backlog on plastic models isn't that big...  lol
( and no, Conan, Blood Rage, Dungeon Sage and Myth do not count, yet, I hope, do they?  :-X )

Liking the wizard and fighter sculpts, not so much the nun. Those character cards look interesting, is that one card with all those stepped +1 bonuses, or several placed on each other? I am assuming one... have never played Zombicide.

We just started Descent a couple weeks ago, so this miniature board game thingy is fairly new to me. We used to play Advanced Heroquest back in the day, of course.

How different will this be from Zombicide? Everything I see is more the same, but with a different design. And although I like Zombicide I think it's a shame if they're basically rehashing the formula into a Fantasy setting. So I really hope they will add rules to make it stand out from Zombicide.
And I assume they will make a hero and zombie for Ash, Evil Ash, Henry the Red and Arthur...? Only seems fitting ;)

A little less interested now.  I'm sure it'll be a fun game (can probably talk one of my friends into it).  I'm not seeing any minis which really blow my skirt up as of yet.

We'll I have to decide between this and bones 3 I think. I reckon bones 3 will win out (or my bank account will lose)

I'm a Zombicide completionist... :'(
I'm on the fence however. This looks really cool but I still don't have my S3 stuff nor shipping email. I know the West Coast Longshoreman Strike really slowed S3's delivery down but it seems odd to release another KS when the shipping for previous one isn't completed.
But knowing me, I'll fold and back it.
The plastic dashboards look really cool.

Kickstarter went live today, over 600% funded already, with a werewolf expansion funded.
I'l be honest, i'm tempted just because the hero miniatures are pretty as flip.

One interesting thing is that the wolf expansion has new tiles/mechanics for shooting from elevated position , meaning you can shoot over buildings and kill zombies that will take an extra turn to get to you. I think you could add these mechanics in and really start to play zombiecide as a proper skirmish game.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.
