Re: Is DOD painted the same color as "Game Tiles Set"

Please note that at the last KS color has changed both within the set and compared to prior - my recommendation is to get stuff either unpainted or from the same set, if you 100% color match is important to you.

Re: What Can We Improve for KS6?

It is hard to reign in creativity and i know there are a LOT of good ideas in Valoria, but DF really needs to make an effort to limit scope. Most backers come with a budget. Most of us go over. But the fact is if you introduce 75 new sculpts and i drop $1,000 you will make more money than if you in...

Re: Improving on a near perfect KS

Well, sticking at DL1 for the reasons stated above: s.g. are really patchy until you reach DL5/DoD. Part of the reason for the big rush at the end of the KS is people coming in to checkout the s.g. - in this case if your budget is 500 or even 1000USD the change has been minimal between 1.5M$ to toda...

Re: Thought excercise newbie pledge $200-$325

Well, the new core set has been released, and I really like it. Perfect imo for those on limited budgets and no prior dungeon. Let's compare the options - store set, 2*starter vault, classic. Based on value / pieces only. Cost: 85+ship / 96 / 96 - all equal Walls: 14 / 14 / 16 (counting the two half...

Suggestion: add dungeon level zero

Basically a "best"/"recommended" pledge for first-timers to DF. Maybe just zaltar's room with maximum amount of "basic" sculpts for ~200 to 250$. Make it bare-bones. Have a big banner on the top of the page, pushing the pledge to newcomers as "want a dungeon? pledg...

Re: Painted prices

As someone who underwrites companies for a living, the issue I see is customer concentration. Until KS5, backers had been decreasing each time due to an increased buy-in to get a large enough amount of pieces to realistically use session over session without it looking the same. The issue with conc...

Re: Thought excercise newbie pledge $200-$325

This thread is perfect for me. I think Zaltar needs to be in every pledge, as it offers a good combination of base pieces with excellent specialty pieces and some flashy bits for the dungeon. The big question is how to progress from here: 1) Encounters such as arcane alcove or deadly corners. Those ...

Re: Thought excercise newbie pledge $200-$325

Nice pledge berny I really like deadly corners - i think it may be the most beginer friendly pledge - just more versatile than lever room - i would have switched those two in the order so that the three set pledge was Zaltar's, Arcane Alcoves & Deadly Corners As someone with a hard cap of ~300U...

Re: Getting the Word Out

I published it on local forums / RPG and boardgame groups - and people are very excited but get a sticker shock. I know that there is one person who supports zaltar's game room, and another is thinking about going higher, but I feel that there is no "killer" pledge for newbies at the ~200 ...
