Hi MR,
I'd like to start off by saying that Mark has thrown a tremendous amount of value into the game right off the start, a player will have lots to play with.
And the extra map, counters and scenarios were added to the base game, not as priced add-ons.
Selling so well can lead to the problem of promising the moon and not being able to deliver, or spending longer in development and ticking everyone off
Maybe the stretches should have set loftier goals, but at least this way they were reached and they'll be on your table.

Still discussing other things though.
Besides, a man with your avatar should be happy with the Stalingrad map ;)

From the images at the kickstarter page it looks like a Finland map could be one of the stretch goals yet to be named. The other, Kursk?

Only to boast...a couple of Early-Bird KS slots opened up for some reason and I was able to ninja one.

Looking forward, but MR's questions re: the KS campaign strike me as good ones...

New stretch goal, $44K, is 8 more counters, heavy tanks for both sides, and some new scenarios to use them in.  Everyone gets this not just KS.
Presently at $32.8K.
8 days left.

I've never backed anything on KS before, but this sorely tempts me  :-\

It's probably because some folks cancelled their pledges. One of those $85 w/(accidentally) Free Shipping slots opened up as well so I grabbed it! Not as good as $55 but still...

Maybe a dumb question, but here I go....

The more you pledge, the more you get. I understand that, but won't some people have a more complete game?
Meaning: Stretch goals  like

Nine additional Luck Cards
Additional Scenarios and counters
Unit data cards for the 8 new counters

After all is said and done, will people willing to purchase the game get the basic game or deluxe game in the future?

PS: Does look like a SUPER game!!! Well done to all involved!!!  ;D

The $85 dollar level will get you 9 extra Luck cards, custom dice and a strategy guide. These are KS exclusive and Mark says not available ever again.

Stretch goal stuff in stretch #1 and #3 will be included in every game. Even after the KS is complete.
Stretch #2 in KS exclusive.... I think....
