Lupin the Third: The Expansion #1 I was fortunate enough that when I started delving into anime more deeply that Lupin III featured prominently (thanks Yumiko!). A board game that captures the feel and style of Lupin III? Oh yes, this would please me greatly. The rewards for this project …
Game Master’s Campaign – The Fantasy Art Kit I’ve backed art projects before. This one contains some lovely resources for top-down tokens and map elements, much better than average. I’d really like to get my hands on all of the art here, and there are some excellent pieces. If I …
The Reliquary I always like magic items, especially when they’re interesting. Swords with enhancement bonuses bore me. It appears I’m not the only one who feels this way. RKDN Studios is working on a magic items supplement, The Reliquary, for 13th Age, Pathfinder, and Savage Worlds that aims to do better …
Game Grids This looks like a great idea for managing the table for certain games (Carassonne being the key one, obviously). Having had the table disturbed during a game can be immensely frustrating for tile-based games like this, and these grids are designed to prevent exactly that. Unlike another solution …

PURGE: Sins of Science – The 1st Real Time Strategy Card Game I like strategic games and have been thinking about how it might be possible to implement such a thing as a card game. It looks like someone else has the same goal, so I plan to see how …
When I wrote Kickass Kickstarter Projects, Introduction the other day, I was thinking that I would have enough content for a series of articles. After outlining the material I realized that unless this one gets big enough to warrant splitting up, it could be entirely handled with a single post. Let’s see …
Since November 2011, it has become apparent to me that I really like Kickstarter. My wallet doesn’t, but spreads for Kickstarter anyway. My wallet can be that way. Some projects have been really well handled, some stand room for improvement. I’ll be posting a few articles over the weekend that …
I was really excited by the Reaper Miniatures Kickstarter. To be honest, I still am excited by it. I backed it for a while. Then I added up just how much I’ve backed and found I had over $500 backing for projects closing in the next month. I dropped it …
Oh god, Reaper Miniatures and Kickstarter, why do you do this to me? Look what $100 gets you now! … if the image is missing, it’s because Reaper added more and changed the image, and the old one died. Go to the Kickstarter project to see the current set and I’ll update …
