For the dozen or so of you who still care about Torg Eternity, the Orrorsh not-on-KS KS is up. https://www.gameontabletop.com/cf430/torg-eternity-orrorsh-eng.html It also has a giant-box option since y'all seem to be into those lately.

I think that's part of the push for the big boxes and pre designed storage solutions in recent years. Games with huge amounts of dead space in the box just feel bad, but I guess it becomes its own side hobby to figure out how to consolidate boxes.

I backed it at the lowest level, and I got like 8 cubic feet of crap do deal with. It's an impressive amount of stuff if nothing else.

I felt kind of dumb for buying it, but I've got pretty much everything to do with Too Many Bones and it really was a pain to keep it all in like four separate boxes. It's very well designed.

CODChimera posted:well no one was exaggerating that's for sure The boxes themselves have pretty nice storage, particularly the core. All the cards have slots and there are special slots for each character's stuff when you 'save' during a campaign. A slight ding in that the trays are a bit tight if you sleeve and you won't have room for the upgrade cards if sleeved. Minis can stay in there plastic trays that they come in. The big issue is obviously the number of boxes. And there's not much to do about that.

That would require them to sell it to retailers. I looked at Coolstuffinc and Miniature Market and neither of them even list a Too Many Bones product. And the listing on Amazon is a third party marketplace vendor charging like a 100% markup. I could swear they used to have retail presence, but maybe I'm hallucinating. And no, I don't know what the deal is with that.

Cubicle 7 have decided to write off the much-delayed Sigil & Sign Kickstarter, offering either cash refunds or 150% in Cubicle 7 store credit. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/461807648/sigil-and-sign-cthulhu-mythos-rpg-where-you-play-t/posts/3084683 I got my refund ages back and am unsurprised to see this - they've got a lot of projects to be doing which will likely be more profitable, and their partners seem to have badly dropped the ball on it and left them holding the bag.

Lumbermouth posted:Oh word, I wonder if anything's been keeping him from working on RPG stuff? IIRC the Kickstarter ran before a lot of the stuff about him came out, and then this happened: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/461807648/sigil-and-sign-cthulhu-mythos-rpg-where-you-play-t/posts/2040857 So he hasn't been involved for some 3 years at this point.

I would very, very much like to get the Underwater Cities promo cards from you in Pack B. It's the only thing I want in there and it drives me nuts to think about paying $50 for that. The Tainted Grail and Etherfields stuff in D would also be awesome. You're literally getting the two packs that got what I want in 'em.

If you are patient it will pay off.

And even if they were, I for one don't travel for conventions and they're not a thing at my local ones. I have seen Dice Tower promos as addons on the promotional partner's Kickstarters occasionally, so I'm hoping maybe I can get the AR ones that way. I don't watch the Dice Tower's content, and I don't own most of the games in any of those $50 packs, so it's a non-starter for me otherwise.

I understand that it would be a logistical nightmare to pack 10,000+ custom orders, but I still really wish they’d let you pick and choose your promos. I think every pack had 1-2 promos for games I own, but there’s no way I’m spending $250 for a handful of promos. I know I could always sell the extra stuff but
