The cards are really cool, mercenary from a mixt of two or three 80's cartoons each.

The meeple look nice.  It all looked too colourful and prototype-mock-ups for my liking.

Did you check out: The Lost Expedition and Shahrazad ?

Shahrazad, yes, but I wasn't immediately drawn in by it. Lost Expedition, not yet, but the title seems promising :)

Sigh... I surrendered and backed Rise of Tribes as well. Most of the stretch goals have been unlocked. I don't think any of the remaining social stretch goals will be unlocked ;)

Am I wrong in thinking the standard version of Rise of Tribes is good enough? The deluxe version adds wooden components of standard version tokens, but doesn't feel worth the additional $20 USD plus $2 additional shipping. Most people are going with the deluxe version, so I must be in a minority that doesn't mind cardboard tokens (I haven't upgraded my Carc trade goods for example to the wooden versions that are available from Spielmaterial for example).

I can usually make do with cardboard, but you all know I love a good exclusive-promo.
I wasn't convinced by the play testing on Rise of Tribes.  This time I'm happy to sit out  :(y)

I try not to back a Kickstarter too often. So when I do, I don't mind going for the DeLuxe version if it isn't a crazy amount of $$s more. I generally don't mind cardboard tokens either, but I like the visuals of wooden/plastic tokens/figures. (You're the second one to mention the trade good upgrades for Carcassonne... ;) Maybe I should do that too... :D)

I backed Raiders + the two Expansions and avoided going for the full North Sea collection since both Explorers and Shipwrights didn't ring any bells.
I might give a further look into Explorers this time.

On other news, for the first time in my KS history my Wife asked to play a particular game instead of being me hassling for it.

Guess that Einstein is the part of the formula for turning septic non-gamer wife into an "I don't mind playing that one again" non-gamer wife.
 ;D ;D ;D ;D

I guess Einstein is popular in your house  :(y)  Good luck!

I started with Explorers and went back for the other 2 games.  Explorers is a tile laying game, which is why it peaked my interest  :(y) :(y)
