Hi, i`ve made some updates to my campaign. These updates show different star types and what those can contain. Plus there is a photo of the full game setup and some ship tokens.

4 player game takes around 4 hours of play. But right now there is a lot of discussion in our playtests, so games take much longer. Plus there is no such thing printed rules (cause they are constantly adjusted and its final version requires 7 race arts and some additional decorative art), so all questions are adressed to me

Added the picture of the fourth race.



These are the Wurmis - the fastest expansionists in the game.

A new race art and description are ready for the game: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/lords-of-the-stars-board-game/x/2371297?c=activity

Hi.



One of the generous contributors on the other forum has got this http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=5560.msg98390#msg98390 as an additional reward for his help.

The campaign is over now.



Thanks to all contributors and participants in game discussion. It was a very interesting and useful experience.



I`ll keep updating the campaign with info on rewards and further art pieces.

There are 3 art pieces left for other races plus some decorative art (that was originally planned if campaign will be successful), so there is plenty space for help

Okay thanks, I'll keep it in mind and when I got enough, I'll help you out

I think he was wondering what rewards for them attracted you. For example, lets say you paid 25$ for FTL, because it contained the goodies you wanted at a reasonable price. A shirt, some award, etc.

I did explain that, heh. lol



But to recap - Physical benefits are always nice. I have a lot of posters, figurines and even a shelf of artbooks. But I'm not going to invest in something I don't like playing - It's not as if the physical goods are more important than the gameplay itself.

I typically go for the 100-250$ range pledges because I love having things like Artbooks and physical boxes to have on my shelf. I don't buy a lot of games though so it's typically quality over quantity. (This has lead to a few fiaskos however - I bought SW:TOR's Collectors Edition for something like 160€ and it went F2P... )



This month it was Planet Explorers - a "Minecraft" game in 3d using voxels. It had a playable alpha which I liked so I decided to help kick it



Previous projects include;



Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey (Won the second game in a contest years ago and have waited for a conclusion to the story)



War for the Overworld (I love Dungeon Keeper 2)



Maia (I love Dungeon Keeper style games - even in space. I'm a big "Tycoon" affectionado)



Project Eternity (One of my oldest games is Baldurs Gate 1/2 - Still have the Collectors Edition boxes on my shelf)



Blackspace - Plan. Dig. Defend. Survive. (I love minecraft games with a twist - Was unsuccessful though)



Broken Sword - the Serpent's Curse Adventure (I love the old school point and click adventure games)



Planetary Annihilation - A Next Generation RTS (Seemed like fun - not a huge RTS fan but the code beneath will be fun to dig through some day)



The Banner Saga (I loved King of Dragon Pass - This wants to continue the genre)



FTL: Faster Than Light (I love small roguelikes)



Wasteland 2 (Same as Baldurs Gate 1/2 above)

Looking good! An excellent job all around.

Well it should last around 6 hours, especially if its a big map. With games with risk for example, they can go on for a long time and we usually leave them out to continue at later times...
