Supremacy


Cool! But is there any info on what actual rule and map changes they've made (other than KS pictures)? I'm wary; I want reviews or details or something.

I haven't investigated it yet. I would like to see the mechanics of what they changed as well.

Seems sketchy. They are already going on about how they own all the copyrights, trademarks, etc., because "no one can find" the original game's creators.

Also, their main page is sloppy and full of amateur-hour mistakes. There's no spaces between sentences, for one thing. The whole impression they are making is one of laziness and sloppiness — these are not people I want holding my money while they make a game.

Too many red flags. Pass.

I am intrigued by Galaxy Defenders. Probably because I love tactical co-op miniature games.

I'm really considering backing Myth ( www.kickstarter.com/projects/1700755582/myth-0 ), does anyone have any thoughts on this game? the videos are pretty bad, like shot from a phone or something, but the art direction is great and there's a ton of minis.

I wish I'd backed one of those dedicated bitcoin mining pcs. The $1500 units are selling for $45,000 on Ebay. /offtopic

I've seen this guy posting pics of his Necromunda style terrain on some forums, and now he's got it up as a Kickstarter. Looks pretty cool, albeit bulky.

That looks almost awesome enough to get me into minis gaming!

Yeah, it's pricey though. But I'm sure it's durable. You've got to assemble it all, but once you do those magnets make it a snap to rearrange the board. I wish he would have skipped on all the railings though, I think that could get costs down.

Micro Art Studios makes really nice HDF laser cut stuff as well as hardfoam. I ordered a barracks not too long ago.

Oh, back to the topic. Against my better judgement I chose Dwarven Forge's KS over Itar's Workshop, although the Itar stuff is clearly a better deal.

175 (3 sets)
95 (Painted Dungeon Dressing+Painted Chamber of Sorrows...the paint job on that one sucks IMO, but I'm scalping that shit)
70 (unpainted floor pack, unpainted Chamber of Sorrows)

Fuck am I stupid.

Oh no, my heart goes out to Steve Jackson Games. It's so hard when people give you a million dollars.

I'm sorry. If you're stupid enough to LOSE money when people front you a million dollars, that is on you. I simply do not want to hear a sob story about how each unit should now supposedly cost "400" dollars to break even. Or how it ruined your production schedule. Fuck you.

Yeah seriously. They (SJG) have an amazing ability to bitch and moan and make excuses, and it all sounds like it's on autopilot or something, so I never believe it. Douchebaggery is their message and they're sticking to it. Barf.
