Alien Frontiers is funding like mad. I still don’t own it, so I’m getting everything thru the Kickstarter…saving a few bucks that way too.

Speaking of games everybody wants: A Study in Emerald is on my list, and I’m waiting for a chance to play Resistance this weekend before joining the bandwagon for Coup.

My only questions are Tasnia and Archon. I’m leaning towards Tasnia, but waiting for the rulebook to be posted for Archon.

So, I dropped Teramyyd. The minis look good, but the game appears to be lacking. I’m thinking about Galaxy Defenders. I’ve backed Coup, Galactic Strike Force, A Study in Emerald, and Alien Frontiers for the promos (I think these are all pretty sure bets). Not sure I need to back Red Dragon… unless they provide some compelling extras. Tasnia looks like it might be good…

…simple setup with some interesting strategic decisions? It looks a little like some other games… so I may just wait for reviews. My wallet can’t afford to take too many chances.

The Alien Frontiers KS is offering a heck of a deal if you already own the game and the expansion. Nine promo cards plus a new Relic Ship die, and currently two new Faction Packs, stretching towards a third one, for only a $25 pledge.
