Hey folks. As per the title, I designed a couple of 3D printable parts to help keep the plastic building bases/toppers contained. Here are their Thingiverse pages:

Enjoy!

...and I couldn't disagree more! I had an absolutel blast today! Only thing that put even the remotest damper on the proceedings was the fact that the ding and dent that Amazon Warehouse sent me came with a 5 inch gash in the side of the box. I think I can do a little bit to fix it and otherwise the game is pristine, but I suppose this is the price I must pay for saving $30 and bringing the game within striking distance for me price-wise.

I feel like this game is perfectly streamlined in terms of combat; and it strikes just the right balance between controlling territory with the tagging and outright mech on mech warfare.

It's just so lean and the art really pops. And of course those beautiful minis! What an absolute joy to play!

I'm gonna get to play it with four people on Friday so I'm sure it's going to open up considerably and the fun is only going to be compounded exponentially but the fact that I can play this with my brother any day of the week and have a really great time has me excited for the prospect of waking up tomorrow!

Extra components are pink/purple turrets, cards for the turrets, cards for Lil Buddy (iIrc) and a rules insert.

The Kickstarter is getting close to wrapping up and I think it's safe to say it was very successful. However, if you haven't already pledged, this is your last chance!

In case you weren't aware of what a core box pledge (100 USD) gets you, here's an image of all the stretch goals that will be included along with the main game:

Stretch Goals

And here's the link to the Kickstarter:

There's some more stretch goals available but it seems unlikely at this point they'll be reached. Anyway, that's all, enjoy!

I dont really like board games, but I like models, is there gonna be any releases of parts to just kitbash or do I have to scratchbuild

I'm probably going to need at least 300, perhaps a bit more, right?

I'm honestly looking for the cheapest option that will fit and protect the cards. Normally I don't mind my board games getting a little beat up but this is the first time I've really splurged on something that's a truly boutique production and would like to keep it in nice shape.

Thanks for any help!

Adding scales to my Diamondback Industries Heavy Hitter, because you know snakes. What do people think? Too many scales? Not enough? https://i.imgur.com/4txHBfn.jpg https://i.imgur.com/hJHxH6d.jpg

Does anyone have some good suggestions for storage and transportation of the GKR game? I've used Feldherr before but wondered if anyone found better solutions. Not sure what size bag would be necessary to carry the entire game including the stretch goal add ons such as mercs and plastic buildings.

The rule book says little about how to deploy mercs other than "you will need some sponsorship help" yet they came with no corresponding sponsor cards? Do you just get to deploy these as any other during the deploy phase and that was just for flavor test or am I missing something here?
