The new home of all things Grinning Skull!
Absolutely stunning stuff here from Manor House Workshop, 28mm terrain at the top end. I fear that most of us can only dream of a custom set up like this, but one can dream! I'm pretty surprised that they have only raised a bit so far, as a lot of what they are offering is… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Manorhouse Workshop on Indiegogo
Puppets if done correctly can be quite brilliant, so with that in mind I'd like to bring this KS to your attention. Coming from a LARP background, big 3D puppets and bodysuits can add so much to the whole ambience of a live game and this kind of thing would be ideal. Although this is… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Michael Baird’s Folklore Monster Puppets Kickstarter
Now, I am a real big RISK fan, so when I saw this project, I really want to get in on the action! Not only do they have a wide variety of different themed boards and accompanying card sets, but there are options for custom etched wooden boards. Normally I don't buy download type stuff,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Havoc Risk Boards Kickstarter
Now, somehow I don't think this will ever catch on, but at first look at the graphic for this board game, I did think that for some reason this project was something to do with a biblically themed battle (Given the fact it's called "Surrender", quite a dynamic name for a wargame, don't you think?)… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: SURRENDER the Bible Board Game Kickstarter
Today, although I have a few posts to make, I'm keeping it brief, if you haven't noticed (a bit of flu I'm afraid!) On to another great looking project is the new baby from Sandy Peterson (of Call of Cthulhu RPG fame) this time with a game called Cthulhu Wars, and as you an guess… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Cthulhu Wars Kickstarter
Here's a good one I forgot to mention, aftermath modular terrain. Looks like a nice simple system that is ideal for all manner of modern, pulp and scifi gaming. Although its a 28mm set, I'd like to imagine that they would consider a 15mm or 20mm version in the future. There's lots of potential here,… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Aftermath modular terrain Kickstarter
Hello there folks, I just saw this on frother's and thought it'd be worthy of a mention (I just hope it doesn't grass them up by doing so!) Still, what's the point of publicising something like this on the net! As you can see, this project is for a Star Wars inspired set of fantasy… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Star Bowl Fantasy Football Miniatures on Indiegogo
As with the last post I made, concerning the recent British cannibal study, it leads me to post about the subject again. This time I'd like to draw your attention to several active Indiegogo campaigns. This however is not my usual crowdfunding spotlight (as i wouldn't want to garner this person any positive exposure) but,… Continue reading The disturbing world of Thimo Graef on Indiegogo
If only I was still doing Necromunda, or any other scifi gaming in 28mm, cos' these look very promising indeed! Ok, the plain ones don't really inspire, but by the look of things, these could turn out to be a very good system for gaming. Why some one doesn't do something like this for 15mm… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Modular Wargaming Terrain MAKI Games Kickstarter
As you know, I love the strange and off the wall stuff, and I'm pretty surprised this one slipped past me entirely! Myconids are a race of Mushroom humanoid from the glory days of gaming, and one of my favourite fantasy races. There are a few good examples in miniature form, but they are few… Continue reading Crowdfunding Spotlight: Fun-Gi’s to be with: Myconids from Gloom Glade on Indiegogo
