We definitely have plans for the Mark II!

I dunno if we will hit $100K or not but honestly that stretch goal excites me a bit more than the previous ones unless I'm misunderstanding something.

I got mine yesterday. Amazing work. Very vivid color, and thin enough to wrap up together for storage.

I didn't really get the size of them until I unrolled them on the table. Anything but a GEV scenario (beaches on the bay!) on two mats could fill an afternoon. But those beaches mean a GEV-centric scenario could play over a lunch break!

Yes, ODE sheet F1 has 3D:
  • Mark II
  • Mark III
  • Mark III-B
  • Mark V
  • Admin Bldg
  • laser
That would not be a bad choice for a die to re-use later

Let's not forget the Flat Ogre sheet: J1

That would be a great "everything in the box" sheet to get easy access to all the ogres (and likely useful to a lot of people from a space perspective for travel).

The flat Ogres are not something I'd care to pay for again. I never use them and I feel that they actually detract from the presentation of the modern game. YMMV, of course, but from my perspective I'd rather have another sheet of counters that I would actually use.

Perspective is everything. There's a lot of stuff in the box that I don't use, and I'm sure it's not the same stuff others use (or don't use). The fact there's something for everyone is part of why the giant box is cool. :-)

I really like the flat ogres for travel & use them often.
Wouldn't mind having some more available at some point.

Oh totally agree against the cutting but just wondered if the new M1 fit together better than the original. IF it did then I'd invest in an extra M1, One more thing.... while I know it could be created with the Steam Map creator has anyone thought of a stretch goal to have Auroch Digital convert all M series maps over to the Ogre game so they are immediately available for play while we await our hard copies?
