What KICKSTARTER(S) are you BACKING and WHY?

Wow thanks for the heads-up, I may have missed this.

I just received The Battle of Petersburg a book by Sean Chick. Sean one of my favorite war game reviewer and the designer of Hold the Line: Frederick's War.

I just backed Blue Rose The AGE Roleplaying Game of Romantic Fantasy. I'm buying this for my daughter who's into RPG.

This year is the 50th anniversary of Nuclear War. I played the hell out of this in college and as a in-between rpg sessions in the late 90's early 2000's. It still hits the table 2-3 times a year. I don't think I need to re-buy it, but I did back it for the new color card Population deck.

Thanks for the heads-up! We used to play Nuclear War all the time in high school and college. I'll probably throw them a few bucks just for nostalgia's sake.

Backed my 2nd kickstarter yesterday. Bought 3 core copies of EPIC CARD GAME by Robert Dougherty.

Decided to get it since each copy is enough for 4 people to draft. With 3 copies, you can make a Cube to draft. I got 3 buddies who I draft Magic with every 3 months or so and one of them flagged this for us. So I jumped in and US$70 split four ways isn't much at all.

Looking forward to it.

High Frontier 3rd Edition is live. Looks like it includes the basic (ha ha) game, Colonization, and Interstellar when it gets to that stretch goal. What has me interested is some of the updated artwork and supposedly simplified rules.

Same here, cause I am a sucker for High Frontier in any form!

Man, it makes me bummed that I already own it.

In spite of saying I wouldn't pledge for another game until the 3 I have pledged on arrive I have backed Monstrous:
www.kickstarter.com/projects/1960349413/...ame-of-mythic-mayhem

This is because:
1) Good theme
2) Surprised I haven't seen card throwing as a mechanic before
3) Looks like it will fill that same King of Tokyo niche that I ccan't get enough of
4) I mostly trust the company behind it as they have been good to the Australian Gaming community
5) It is very cheap ($29).

*Ahem* Card throwing has been used before.
