I'll probably be running Vaesen soon. One of my nephews showed me the first Fantastic Beasts movie this week and wants to do something similar in an RPG. Vaesen seems like the easy choice.

The Brindlewood Bay Kickstarter is live. Funded in 10 minutes.
If it makes you feel better is not enormously PbtA feeling in the way that, say, Monster of the Week is. No playbooks, no library of moves. It's PbtA stripped down to its essentials and targeted directly (and accurately) at genre emulation.I love everything about this. Even though it’s pbta, I think I’m gonna end up backing.
My favorite mystery solving mechanic by a mile.I agree. I've read but not played Brindlewood. On the whole, I'm really not into pbta but the components work well here.

I feel ya. I've spent a LOT of money on Kickstarter in the last couple of weeks.This thread is getting expensive for me, this week.
You need the cookbook....I've been struggling getting my old group to play online, due to having drifted across different time zones making scheduling even harder. I opened with, "I know this is a crazy pitch, but it's good for episodic, as-we-can-get-together play. It's basically Mythos, She Wrote starring the Golden Girls, and while that sounds-" and to my surprise they were all, "Stop drilling, you've already struck oil!"
It really is.My favorite mystery solving mechanic by a mile.
The Blade Runner KS is just coming up and the Pirate Borg KS BackerKit went out this week too, so I've gone from no KSs to 2 in a matter of a few weeks (which seems like a big deal to someone who swore off them at the beginning!). Still relatively small fry but I am much more discerning with my money these days.I feel ya. I've spent a LOT of money on Kickstarter in the last couple of weeks.
Yeah I'm really curious about this one.The Blade Runner KS
I feel that. I recognize that I buy far more games than I will play. So I rationalize if I think I’d enjoy reading it, I may pick it up.I was thinking about backing Pan-Pacifica and Blade Runner, but not sure I will. The FOMO is combatting my new awareness that I'm getting things just to get them.
Same here. I'm not even reading anything that I get, so not sure that even the PDFs are worth it.I feel that. I recognize that I buy far more games than I will play. So I rationalize if I think I’d enjoy reading it, I may pick it up.
Right now I’m debating on Tokyo Otherscape, the evolution of City of Mist. I’m backing, but not positive I will continue backing through the end.
PDFs are never with it for me unless I’m running a game, and then only if I can see the and copy from the text.Same here. I'm not even reading anything that I get, so not sure that even the PDFs are worth it.
Yeah mine came in while I was in the hospital. Need to catch up and give it a read through. Love Vaesen personally, no surprise since I'm a fanboy of Free Leagues.The PDF for the book on the British Isles from Graeme Davis just got released to backers. I'm too busy this week to look at it, but I am very excited to read it.
And now you know how we in Europe feel about the shipping from the USA!Ooof the pledge manager for Marvel Zombicide went out today and the revealed costs for shipping are… somewhat shocking for an already-expensive game.
Just the two core boxes (basically the game itself) will cost you over 100$ shipping to the USA.
Very glad that I didn’t pay NEARLY that much for an all/in pledge for Masters of the Universe (also by CMON).
Kind of glad that I only invested 1$ for this campaign. Ouchie
Yeah it’s far worse for you folks. Canada gets a taste though.And now you know how we in Europe feel about the shipping from the USA!
I'm looking forward to my Pirate Borg pdf!

It's already done that to me. I'm buying fewer and fewer physical miniatures. The pile of shame has frozen in size. The hard drive of shame, however...All the high shipping costs makes me wonder if this will be a boon to 3d printing. I mean I'd rather buy one 3d printer and get STLs than pay a ton to move the same plastic around just bubble wrapped.
Interesting. The ridiculous shipping costs fuel the Home 3D Printed market. I never thought about that but it makes sense.All the high shipping costs makes me wonder if this will be a boon to 3d printing.

So there is OpenScan a 3d printed scanner using a raspberry pi and camera for scanning if you want. There are Facebook groups dedicated to printing GW Warhammer 40k stuff. It's happening. It just needs a nudge (or nude as spell correct suggested) to push it over the edge to be the default. 3d printing still is an art at the lower dollar end requiring some tinkering.Interesting.

I'm wondering how good an stl you can make from a 3D scan of a GW mini.
Wonder how scanning a sprue and printing out pieces to order would work.
Could get one of these, they're only 17 grand.So there is OpenScan a 3d printed scanner using a raspberry pi and camera for scanning if you want.

Did someone mention this earlier? If so, I missed it until just now.
Now, for my commentary as a Robotech/Macross fan. I'm not sure if I'll be going in on this Kickstarter, because I already have the core game being offered, and I don't feel it was something I'd play. I also have multiples of most of the miniatures which are part of the campaign.
But the miniatures this company has been doing are very good.
For me the super tempting things are the SDF-1, Breetai's Flagship, and some of the support mecha like the Gnerl and Cat's Eye which have not been previously available. I'm extremely bummed that it seems the only way to get the SDF-1 in cruiser mode is to get the All-In package.
Yup, went all in while ducking wife side eye. Lol Lucky for me she's a fan of Free Leagues Publishing.Free League's Blade Runner RPG campaign is up:
