The King’s Armory was running at this time, I just want to give it honorable mention, and thanks to Bryancb for doing so as well just in the nic of time! : )

I have never backed a Kickstarter campaign, but I just jumped in with both feet for the Frigost expansion to Krosmaster Arena. I would normally wait for the expansion to hit retail and purchase it then, as I rarely care for Kickstarter promos and add-ons, but I really want those PVC terrain pieces and carrying case (only holds the playable characters). I do feel a little sick to my stomach, though…

I’m new here, so please forgive me if I missed something.

This may be a little late, but The King’s Armory (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/johnwrot/the-kings-armory-the-tower-defense-board-game-0) has 24 hours left, unlocked a lot of stretch goals, a very responsive designer, and looks to be a great game. Probably should be on this list.

Privateer looks very fun on their gameplay video on their kickstarter page!

The Manhattan Project: supported. I love board games on iOS. It’s such a lovely and portable way to play board games, especially solo.

I’ve played an earlier set of Lords of War with my daughter (Elves versus Lizardmen) and enjoyed it. It’s a quick (and simple) battle game with a little strategy, a load of tactics and a heap of luck. We’re looking forward to this new set and love how dedicated the publishers are to their game.

Emu Ranchers is ALMOST there! We funded 82% in 24 hours, which was pretty awesome. If you’re a Lost Cities / set collection fan, take a second and check out our project.

I’m excited for Two Rooms and a Boom and the new Roll Through the Ages. Other than that none of these really caught my eye. There a couple I’m interested in but not enough to pledge my few hard earned free money.

Darkstar looks like such a great game to me, but I just don’t have the group to play it.

The Zont Deck seems very strange. I guess that is the point, but it went a little too far for me.

Looking forward to Roll Through the Ages: Iron Age. Also, Privateer, Emu Rancher and Stak Bots look very interesting.

Shadows of Brimstone still looks great, and there are a huge number of stretch goals and add-ons available now. I’m looking forward to how this one turns out.

Machina Arcana also looks great. I really like the theme, so I’ll be keeing an eye on fhat project, as well.
