Yvonmukluk posted:Or be a real Marvel Zombie! Yeah, I'm actually pretty into Marvel, and this probably will the closest I get to a Marvel tabletop game I want to get into. Crisis Protocol takes too much time with the painting (yeah, I know, you don't have to paint them...), and both that and Heroclix suffer from finding people to play with that have enough variety to stave off the "here's the same team I have for the 30th time we played together" stagnation.

Fate Accomplice posted:someone make a miniatures game that doesn't require a tape measure or ruler It depends on what you mean by 'miniatures' and 'measurement' but Gaslands is super fun and super cheap. It's Mad Max or Death Race or Twisted Metal but with diecast (Matchbox, Hot Wheels) cars. It is template-based, similar to X-Wing, so there is no explicit measuring. If you pick up a template, you're stuck using it so there is no pre-measuring. Grabbed a turn that is a little too wide? Looks like you're gonna crash into that pile of explosive barrels. The only thing is I don't think it's well adapted to becoming super competitive, but I consider that to be a positive, honestly.

Note it is very streamlined, almost bare-bones, so if you think Kings of War lost something by cutting out all the WHFB clutter you won't like Deadzone either. I played a dozen games, but there was no playerbase in my area and playing the same opponent over and over again combined with the lack of depth made me give up.

Same. I mean, especially for something I'd go at Solo, a bit of crunch can be really fulfilling. In fact, in solo games, I actually love crunch and chrome (as its called in boardgames) even more, because it creates even weirder and often times more structured results.

Seems like a lot of people aren't super impressed with the Marvel Zombicide KS (specifically the slow rate of stretch goals/KS exclusives). Given it's half a million for each stretch goal and a single mini each time, I can see the point. Is that typical for CMON stuff?

Given it's half a million for each stretch goal and a single mini each time, I can see the point. Is that typical for CMON stuff? Much worse than both Marvel United campaigns that had way more minis for much smaller dollars per unlock as part of the stretch goals. Xmen was 30-50k early on in that campaign then 60-80k later. There were individuals stretch goal characters and progress expansion reveals. The design, marketing, and rollout of that campaign was so good that they were hitting 1-2 stretch goals a day the entire run. There was a lot of chatter and excitement in this thread even. I usually love a big ole box of minis on Kickstarter just to have a lot of unique poo poo to paint but I have no interested in Marvel Zombicide. Zombicide is pretty meh anyway but the game just doesn’t sound that fun. The sculpts look ok but I’d rather just drop the money on a bunch of crisis protocol boxes if I wanted to spend a stupid amount of money in marvel sculps. I’m the exact kind of idiot that Kickstarter’s like this should appeal to and it’s just not exciting at all. This and the Witcher have been the only box o’ minis Kickstarter’s in a few years that I haven’t had any interest in. Definitely some similarities between the two on why.

Yea the stretch goals are wayyyyy worse than Marvel United. They’re really trying to milk every dollar of profit they can out of this thing with that giant dumb galactus.

In fact, in solo games, I actually love crunch and chrome (as its called in boardgames) even more, because it creates even weirder and often times more structured results. When I do solo games I use far more of the rules as written than I do when running for other people. It's partly not being under time pressure to keep things moving.

It doesn’t help that this is the umteenth ZCide game launched/fulfilled in the last 3 years during a time where F2F gaming has been a drag. I haven’t even popped the shrink on my ZCide 2.0 from summer ‘21, why would I back another? I know I can’t be alone.

malkav11 posted:Global shipping and production has skyrocketed in cost since then, FWIW. I mean, that's fair but the price difference between the Resistance level and the Galactus level is $170 and the difference is you get the big Galactus, two silver surfer minis and like 60 cards. And shipping is not included in the pledge level cost.
