Arcadia Quest Inferno:- Snaek Peaks

As we head towards the end of the month, we also edge closer to the kickstarter launch of the new Arcadia Quest:Inferno game. In anticipation of this Cool Mini or Not have been showing a few of the characters on their Facebook page. Here's what we have so far:-

















I'm looking forward to this, I just hope the pledge levels are more straightforward than the current Super Dungeon Explore Kickstarter which is a bit too complicated and expensive.

Super dungeon explore: Legends launched on Kickstarter

So here we have what will probably be another money magnet on Kickstarter: Super Dungeon Explore Legends by Soda Pop Miniatures. By the way if you want to get the stretch goals it is an expensive one, $150 to be exact. To be honest the whole kicktarter is a little confusing in terms of what you are actually backing as there is SDE 2nd edition, SDE legends (where you create your own adventures), an expansion and a couple of warbands. For $60 you can pledge for the core game alone but you wont get any stretch goals at this level. Several stretch goals have been unlocked already and we are only a day into the campaign.

Beyond the Gates of Antares-The Ghar

Warlord games are soon to release 'Beyond the Gates of Antares'. A science fiction tabletop game created by Rick Priestley (formerly of Games Workshop fame). As a special reward to customers who pre-order you can get, along with the base game, the box cover signed by Rick Priestley, free PDF army lists and an exclusive miniature. This LINK is a guide to one of the factions in the base game, The Ghar.

Dreadball Xtreme- 50% off

Mantic games are currently offering Dreadball xtreme at 50% off in the run up to the rugby world cup final. For us Brits that's a very attractive price of £24.99. Apparently Xtreme is a more brutal version of Dreadball played between teams of convicts and rogue aliens. Also you don't need a copy of Dreadball to play this as it is a standalone game. Follow this link for more info.

Games Workshop new releases:TAU

Games Workshop has recently released some new Tau box sets. The Fire Warriors Strike Team as shown top is priced at £30 and comprises of a whopping 230 components, gotta love those customization options. From the same kit you can also make the Breacher Team bottom.
There was also a special set with exclusive Ethereal which is now sold out unfortunately.
The Games Workshop webshop can be visited here.

Blood Rage on Watch it Played

CMoN's Blood Rage is now up on Watch it Played here. At the minute all I can do is watch it being played. I have received my Kickstarter pledge, but I don't officially get it until the end of November for my birthday. Oh the joy of living life on a tight budget!

Arcadia Quest: Inferno

Coming in early November, Cool Mini or Not's latest kickstarter project will be Arcadia Quest:Inferno. Set to be standalone or compatible with the original Arcadia Quest game, I'm sure this will be another big money project. The original raised over $700'000 in February of 2014 and I feel the whole kickstarter idea has continued to pick up pace since then, especially in terms of CMoN's kickstarter projects. As their last project, The Others raised going up for $1.5 million, I expect this with its already existing fanbase to reach at least $2million.
Hopefully I will have enough money to back this one as I missed out on the original game but have already backed 3 big money CMoN projects this year. Fingers crossed that my family loves me and showers me with lots of money for my birthday at the end of the month. If not I might be backing this project for next years Christmas present.

The 7th continent kickstarter

The 7th continent is a game currently up on kickstarter. It's apparently a card game version of the Fighting Fantasy books that were big in the 80s. A 'choose your path' adventure where the purpose of the game is to somehow lift the curse that ails you since your previous visit to the 7th continent.
At the time of writing there are still 2 weeks of funding to go and the project has already blasted through several stretch goals that add things like more playable characters and extra map tiles to give the game even more length and replay value.
Here is a LINK to the projects kickstarter page for all the info.

The Others- Late pledges

The Others-7 sins is the latest game by Coolminiornot. It features game design by Eric Lang, artwork by Adrian Smith and miniatures by the studio McVey team. It is essentially the same group who produced Blood Rage which I personally own and can vouch that if the miniatures for The Others is of the same quality as Blood Rage then we are in for a treat.
The Others recently completed a very successful Kickstarter campaign and if you missed it fear not as late pledges are still currently open.
For $100 dollars you can get yourself the game along with many unlocked stretch goals mainly featuring more gorgeous minis.



Unfortunately I have been unable to pledge on this one as I have already spent up on kickstarters for one year. If you would like to late pledge then follow this link. It seems well worth it for the money!
