In their latest update, they noted that nothing would be ready for this Kickstarter (which ends in about 48 hours, after all), but would have an announcement, perhaps as early as next week, on what was coming.

And I TOTALLY second your wish for Rappan Athuk in TFT stats!!! If they could sell a few thousand, I'd bet they'd do it too. But the odds are it would be more like a couple of hundred, so I sadly am forced to agree that it's pretty unlikely...

Still, if it looks like they could get over a thousand sales, I'm guessing there's SOME small chance of it happening! (The average game sells around 5000 units these days, RPGs included, unlike back in the 70's when they sold anywhere from 30,000 units (the average SPI non-subscription game) to 300K units (Squad Leader) -- it changes the market dynamics quite a bit!)
