You're playing with the wrong people.  I've been there.  Some groups 'get' boardgames and can tackle very difficult or deeply strategically nuanced play and just eat it up.  Other people want something quick and really light.  This second group absolutely cannot play something more complicated or nuanced than Settlers or Survive, and trying to force it will leave everyone unhappy.  However, people from the first group can play and enjoy some of the light games and still have a blast!  Pick up something like Entdecker, Mission Red Planet, or my very favorite Survive.  It is impossible not to have a bucket of fun playing survive, even to people who hate board games as a religion.  Citadels is another great choice and THAT's a game that's great for introducing more nuanced mechanics to a lighter gaming crowd. Plus its only $20 and fits in a jacket pocket.

Holy shit models so cheap and they raised so much JUST TAKE MY MONEY NOW

Yay!  A new convert.  Now go forth and evangelize.  Spread the Gospel.  The Gospel of Reaper.

(Seriously post this on any forum that doesn't have a thread going and don't be spammy!  All our deals get better and more people learn about the incredible deal)

Coming up on 2,000,000! Some cool storm giants are the next goal. I also found this if you want some better pics of the minis. And also apparently the Vampire bundle is worth $1046 at this point or something? Pretty cool.

Anyone think there's any chance of them throwing a bigger creature into the vampire set at some point? The rate it's been gaining today it could easily make 2,500,000. Would be nice to get a bigger beastie without having to go the option route.

[Gnoll Fortress]

I can hardly beleive the success of this campaign we have reached storm giants just then.
I also can't beleive I nearly missed it!

[thepodger]

Yes, there are now giants and griffins and holy shit its full of rainbows for $100.

We're going to hit four million at this rate.
There's no reason not to do this.  Even if you despise miniatures, you could get the vamp level and easily quadruple your money parting it out.

Actual content:
We're up to 221 figures for $100.

[thepodger]

Sorry to bump my self again but we've got FOUR HOURS LEFT!!!
Miniature count is over 240!
$100 for 240 miniatures!

[lemon10]

Shit. I am not really into miniatures. And have no clue what I would do with all 220 in the vampire set.
But I can't resist it. I don't really have $100 to spare, but I really want to get them for some reason even if I know that I might not ever really paint or use them. *Sigh*. Just bought the vampire set.

e: grammar

[thepodger]

You can easily make that $100 back if you part out the sets you don't want!

Looks like this new undead dragon will be the last stretch goal we hit. It kinda seems like they either overestimated how long the pledges would continue to grow, or underestimated how many stretch goals they'd hit over the course of the campaign.

That .PDF of RPG game rules was an obvious addition and adding it as a bonus to another goal was great, but the .PDF of some novel (not even in ebook format?!) was terribly lame.

Now I have 2 hours to decide which options I want to trade out my Sophie for. Clockwork dragon and something else. Maybe some giants.

[hemmingjay]

When does the Reaper Pledge manager go live so we can swap out rewards?

[fenrif]

I imagine within a day? I don't think they've said specifically beyond "after the kickstarter finishes."

[lemon10]

I don't really do tabletop gaming (although I do do lots of gaming, just not rpg's and such), and as such don't know how I would go about selling them.
Any advice on how exactly to go about it? (Although to be honest I would probably end up keeping them all because having so many is awesome).

[hemmingjay]

ebay, miniature forums, craigslist, or even our own forum in a month or two possibly. Semantics now anyway since the KS is over.

[fenrif]

So now that it's finished what options is everyone else getting? I think I'm going for clockwork dragon, kaladrax and the pathfinder red dragon.

Also we should do some sort of painting thread for them when they come out, post progress, get ideas that sort of thing.
