[QUOTE="InkwellIdeas, post: 5514323, member: 26988"] I don't want to over-complicate the pledge levels. Kickstarter suggests keeping them simple. (Too many makes people decide to think it over and come back later--and often people never do.) Also, I don't get the pledge money until 2-3 weeks after the pledging ends, and only if it is successful. (Although that does look likely.) Anyway ordering Hexographer/Dungeonographer is just as easy as making a pledge. Just click a buy button on any page of their websites and follow the paypal/google checkout process. Both will let you pay by credit card without needing to set up an account with the service. (I know paypal lets you pay without a paypal account. I think Google does too.) Let me explain the overall approach, then answer your question in detail: Right now we're only sure we're doing a dungeon set. If/when we meet the $6500 goal, we'll set a stretch goal (maybe $12000) to create a second set. But these will be Cavern dice. (More natural looking designs.) Then if/when that goal is set (and I'm hoping it will) we'll set a second stretch goal for a third set dice. These would be more dungeon designs. I want to do them, so I'm going to try to set the goals such that they will be achieved. Anyway, the thinking *right now* is that the dungeon sets may have themed dice. For example, one die features temple/worship rooms on most (but not all) sides. 1-2 sides would have designs that could have worship rooms, but they wouldn't have any definitive temple features so they would be more generic. Another die could be sleeping quarters of varying sizes and layouts on most sides. But 1-2 sides would likely be more generic. Another die could feature dining halls/areas, Etc. If we don't make the goal for the 2nd dungeon set we'll likely make the one set a little more generic where only 3 designs on the temple die have obvious temple trappings. But if we do make two dungeon sets we'll probably go with 4-5 sides with obvious temple trappings. Also note that we're thinking each die will have: - a side with a large room - a side with a room almost as large but maybe a small side room or two - a side packed with many medium and small rooms - a side with fewer medium/side rooms and more "dead" space - a side with mostly corridors and only 0-2 small or one medium room - a side with a similar mix to the 3rd or 4th one mentioned in this list. But we're still experimenting with all of this to get a good mix. So to sum up: if we do a 2nd dungeon set (which will happen after a possible cavern set) the themed dice will be more obvious, but it will be 1 theme per die. If we don't do the 2nd dungeon set, a couple sides of each die will have a common theme for that die. [/QUOTE]
