[QUOTE="darkmoonrising, post: 7699355, member: 6798722"] I'm one of those that backed the Kickstarter and am looking forward to receiving my books in the very near future. Ultimately this Kickstarter appears to be an example of when a company promises too much (several books, PDFs, mugs etc) and maybe didn't properly take into account increased costs that will take place over the next few years as delays occur. As a backer it will ultimately be a great deal, with the number of books I am getting for the price, but sometimes adding more content to the core books can be better than promising more and more and more books which inevitably causes long delays. Thankfully Moon Design stepped in to cover financial costs (hoping all the artists/writers have been paid by now) and Sandy/Peter shook up/took over management so things are all on the right track now. Otherwise I have no doubt that failing to deliver on the flagship product of the company would have led to its collapse and much ill will from backers (though I do accept that backing is always a risk not everyone might be so forgiving). So long as Chaosium has learned its lessons for any future Kickstarter projects the future should continue to be rosy (or is that actually blood red?). [/QUOTE]
