It's on the kick now:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shem/explorers-of-the-north-sea-rocks-of-ruin

Will watch to the end, may be with the base game duo but not the trilogy for me.  :)

I'm completly hyped for the Raiders of The North Sea but today I watched a couple of reviews and gameplay videos of Explorers (again) and it doesn't "click".

I'm also looking at the previously mentioned, Founders and (Explorers, I don't yet own the base game. Has anyone played the base game? What are your thoughts?)

I'm very tempted by this one as well: Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done - Deluxified

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

I promised my partner a year ago that I would not buy any more Kickstarters until I got a job (I'm still a student for the time being), yet freaking BRASS and now The Flow of History have caused me to break that promise. Now bloody Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done is destroying me! Fortunately, the cost is prohibitive but that hasn't stopped me from clicking the "Remind Me" button. I don't have money for Kickstarters!!!

When I go bankrupt, the official reason will be "on account of Kickstarter deals...". I'm hopeless. I just hope Kingdom Builder doesn't announce yet another Big Box. I may just die (I have fought the urge to buy the previous two).

The theme suits me but I don't like the hexagons on the board. (Yes, stuff like that can be enough for me not to want a game.)

I've signed up for notifications on Kickstarter for project that other KS creators have backed. It interesting to see what others are backing and you can see projects one might miss.

I just saw that the KS Creator of Santorini and the 'new' Brass, (Gavan Brown of Roxley Games), just backed this project: Overworld - 16-Bit Tile-Placement & Exploration Boardgame

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/magicmeeplegames/overworld-16-bit-tile-placement-and-exploration-bo?ref=new_friend_backing

It looks to be a simple tile laying game with puzzle like pieces of differing shapes and that are also 2 sided. It looks the the puzzle pieces would only fit a certain way so you can avoid mismatching features. They have a fun way to describe this feature, "IF IT FITS, IT'S LEGIT!"

There is also a neat feature where if you were to create a hole in the map you open a cave that allows certain actions to be played. The price isn't bad, so maybe one to keep an eye on.

From the KS PAGE:

Your turn in Overworld is 4 simple steps:

Draw a Land Tile (from the bag)
Attach it to another tile on the board (IF IT FITS, IT'S LEGIT!)
Add Explorers to the Tile you added (one per segment, Umbirds for land, Ships for Sea)
Resolve Gaps! (Check for Dungeon discoveries!)
