Kickstarter Roundup: Week of 23 Sep 2013

Thinking about doing a semi-regular series, since I poke my head in once in a while. Usually in the Games/ Tabletop section, but I get around. Generally I look for things that are interesting to me, so the following is really just my opinions.

So this week..

I like the concept, but it’s a little too close to MaK for comfort. The number of minis per box seems good, but it’s a small company, might have issues. I’d watch it, but.. after nearly 20 years in the hobby, I don’t really need more stuff.

Dice. Dice never changes.

Always did have a fascination with metal dice. Maybe I’ll go into this. If nothing else, I’d have ammo to toss at my opponent…

Also:

This came up some time back, and to be honest, interesting; but also, creepy. I’m not sure whether having a whole army of Space Marines that look like you is a good idea… Well at least won’t be hard to prove ownership if your army gets stolen.

Then there is this:

It’s an interesting idea and I’m still mulling over whether to pitch in. Ultimately I don’t really use stencilling that much, so.. iffy.

Huh. Was hoping to cover 5 KS, but guess this week is a bit thin.. ah well. 🙂
