[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 7760695, member: 725"] A couple a notes to keep in mind when backing this: 1.) Sandy has 5 other KS projects that haven't been delivered (yet). One is over a year late (Glorantha - The Gods War), one is already four months late (Cthulhu Wars Onslaught 3), one a month late (Evil High Priest), the others (Planet Apocalypse, STARTROPOLIS) aren't due yet, but I don't expect them to be on time either. Even CMoN doesn't have this much of a backlog. 2.) The Pathfinder version of this book was horrendously late and the art/layout was far below par. My CE version of the book went straight onto a pile, haven't opened it since, and I'm considering selling it. Now, the preview pdf of the 5E book does look a lot better. 3.) At the time of the first PF KS, this was virtually the only game in town, PF rules wise and minis wise. By the time the book came out, it was a late addition to a range of Cthulhu esk books voor PF. The minis are now getting competition from CMoN (Cthulhu: Death May Die) and other have greatly extended their ranges in resin/metal. I was already quite careful with backing more Sandy projects due to all the delays and a serious amount of money in two (yet) undelivered KS projects, Planet Apocalypse tempted me (and I was too weak), but after the massive disappointment that is the PF Cthulhu Mythos CE book, I've stopped backing Sandy projects completely. I'll see how Glorantha - The Gods War and Planet Apocalypse play before I even consider changing my policy. Keep in mind: Previously achieved successes are no guarantee for the future. [/QUOTE]
