Good stuff! Thanks for the share!!

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

Thanks for watching.

I am very excited to see more of the Christmas Moonstone stuff. I love christmassy minis. I just made a big order from Reaper, got all their seasonal freebies. Excited to paint up my "Hot Rod Santa".

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

I do love stuff with a fun Christmas theme.

[@amagrude]

Oh. Fireteam Zero. Awesome.

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

Nice to see it's coming back. Sounds like they might change quite a lot about it though.

[@tiredguy2753]

Very excited for evershade as I am looking at it as an answer to solo dnd/pf (not a fan of using oracles for solo ttrpgs).

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

It looks beautiful. I still have an untouched copy of Tainted Grail on my shelf that I am hoping to play over the Christmas holidays.

Now this is some news I can get behind! Yay Gaming News! On a more disturbing note, have you heard stories of Kickstarter sending out "Surveys" after the TMNT Unmatched project. Not strange except they seem to be threatening that if backers do not complete the survey they "will not recieve their TMNT Unmatched"?

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

Is it not just the pledge manager to lock in your choices and confirm your shipping address to calculate the postage fees? They normally add the warning that if you don't finalise your pledge you won't receive your rewards (or they will be delayed).

[@HivisoftheScale]

@@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring hmm, the one I received (multiple times I might add) phrased it as a "Survey" and added "this is your last chance to modify your pledge" which I have no intention of doing.

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

That does sound normal to me. You normally have the chance to modify your pledge - adding more extras and the like - up until a certain point where you have to lock it in, confirm your postal address and pay any extra shipping. I just looked at the latest campaign update and it says "Reminder that the pledge manager is closing on December 10th, and surveys will be locked. We still have 1,000 or so backers that haven't completed their survey, which is a higher number than we usually see. That can end up causing us some issues on the back end as folks reach out to us after the fact. If you want to make sure you get your game, you need to complete your survey. Make sure you have completed the entire process, ending by clicking the "Place Order" button. If you have any trouble in BackerKit, please refer to this update, which has detailed instructions. To increase visiblity for stragglers, we are sending out a quick and simple Kickstarter survey. Please take a few seconds to complete that as well. If you already completed your order in BackerKit, don't fret -- the fact that you are receiving the survey does not mean there is an issue with your BackerKit order." That's standard. You need to finalise your pledge if you haven't already done so.

[@HivisoftheScale]

@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring oh good! I was worried for a minute there! 😅 I am really looking forward to this one! 😊

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

Well if you have finalised your pledge, I would say it's all good. I see the Witcher sets are landing now as well. Those could be fun too.

[@HarleyFirestorm]

I'd love to back enormity, but I am still waiting for me ATO stuff, I am also backing SOH and KF with ITU and am not spending another penny until I start getting my ATO stuff.

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

@@HarleyFirestorm That sounds like a perfectly reasonable stance to me. I would wait for completion of earlier campaigns too.

[@tigerpawdesigns]

Hi Kev, There is no link to Enormity in your description. I can watch it anyway, but thought I should let you know.

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

You are too quick for me! I was editing them in. They are there now. Thanks.

[@EriktheRed2023]

I hope very much you've not bitten off more than you can chew! Although, if you're not stressed out at Christmas, is it really Christmas? 😄

[@AlwaysBoardNeverBoring]

I've already eaten too much. That's almost the same.
