This boardgame was a miniature based game, with a full range of minis; minis that looked better than mine. And do you know how much money they got from the kickstarter? 1.5 million!!! And here's the real kicker (no pun), they aren't a new business. They're a long time, vetted company with hit board and computer games going back decades. Civilization, Arkham Horror, Quake, Age of Empires, the list goes on and on. Hell the guy is so well known that his name is included in the games title. And they have the balls to say on their page that they are a just three guys working out of a garage. Must be one hell of a garage considering THEY ARE ****ING MILLIONAIRES!!! They've got a PR department promoting their product on every geeky website on the web, they've got concept artists and booths at conventions. They can offer published books of concept art as incentive while all I can do is offer novelty minis wearing top hats. Basically these guys have got it made! So why the hell are they on kickstarter? Surely the site is for people such as myself who need, well... a kickstart. And now here I am, trying to pick up the leavings of the fat cats, but not really standing much chance of any real success because these greedy assholes need to take a bite of every pie.
