In for a buck-fifty. I'm not sure if I'll get Ogre 6e and/or Reinforcements, or just go for five boxes of minis.

You sure about those prices, Phil? That's substantially lower than I'd guessed. (Or maybe I should just shut up.)

I think I'm in for 5 minis sets plus Reinforcements:
  1. 2 original color for me
  2. 2 reversed color for me
  3. 1 original color for my 4-year-old daughter to play with

The Kickstarter specifically says that Ogre 6e will be in stores well before this Kickstarter ships. What about Reinforcements?

I also note that the Reinforcements countersheets depicted in teh Kickstarter represent our first really good look at Reinforcement's contents. Looks like color-reversed standard MKIIIs and a MkV and red PE(?) armor.

What it actually says (for both 6E and Reinforcements) is
Quote:
Note: Kickstarter delivery of this item is scheduled for after its launch in stores. If you want this [game/supplement] as soon as it’s available, we suggest pre-ordering at your favorite local game store and NOT ordering through this Kickstarter project.
That's not "well before" anything. It just means the scheduled date to hit stores is before the scheduled ship date of the KS contents. That could be 1 day, it could be several months. No concrete date of arrival in stores for either 6E or Reinforcements has been stated yet, AFAIK.

Cool.

Yep, just pledged for $160. 5 sets - 3 original, 2 reversed, and the posters.

I will say that Ogre Sixth Edition is well before the Kickstarter delivers. We are setting delivery on the KS to July 2017, and Sixth Edition was scheduled to drop in January, but is looking more like December.

Two Kickstarters backed in a day. That's not too many, is it?

If that's one day in 6 months, then no.

If that's three days a week, then son, you've got a condition. :)

Wow! December, eh? It's going to be a good year for people who have to buy me gifts. I'm usually the one people complain about being hard to buy for. But this year, SJGames and a few other companies are making it much easier!

I see most people opting for multiple sets -- would a single $30 set only allow for the most basic scenarios?
