Oh my god its Bhamv!

I'm doing well. Have been living in Canada now since 2014 but I travel back to China so often, my friends in China see me more often now, than when I lived there.

Hi guys,

I don't know if anybody remembers me here. I used to post rather frequently when I lived in China.

I have been working on this game for the last year or so, since my wife and I moved back to Canada from China.

It was posted to kickstarter last Monday and I'm curious what you guys think.

Tin if you're still around, I miss your kung fu craziness and your hot winded rants gasbandit.

Dave you're awesoem

But I *have* lost 60-70 lbs since I posted those kung fu vids. I even fit in my old kung fu uniform I used to wear in my 20's.

I'll have to make time tonight to watch the sample playthrough, looks pretty fun! I go to a weekly boardgame meetup, and some people might be interested in seeing it as well.

Will the Trapper have 'Recal 1 Trap' spelled that way in the final version? I thought it was a prototype gaffe, but it's in the description's promo image as well.

oh geez that needs to be fixed and will be fixed post haste. If you see any other issues... please let us know.

• On the main/promo video: 'recieve' (should be 'receive') is in one of the pop-up tooltips (0:36~).
• On the campaign description: 'out maneuver' (should probably be 'outmaneuver' or 'out-maneuver'), 'Battle' (should probably be 'battle', unless it's a game keyword), "All backers for the full game will receive all stretch goals." (should probably be "All backers of the full game .."), "one central larger tile" (should probably be "one larger central tile" due to English adjective order, sounds a bit unnatural otherwise).
• On the campaign graphics: "Out of this World Contibution" (should be 'Contribution', like it is on the pledge picker), "First player to complete 5 missions to trigger the end of the game." (should be ".. 5 missions triggers the end .." instead),
• 'Flee' card: "Left Player Starts" IMO clashes with the rest of the card (which addresses players personally). Something like "Beginning/Starting With The Player To Your Left", "Begin/Start With Player To Your Left", "Player To Your Left Begins/Starts" may be better.
• General card/design note: you may want to switch from 'he' pronoun when referring to players to something like 'they'. I didn't spot he/she alternation (which might be what you're doing and is a-ok usually), but it ends up being easier to use a generic pronoun most of the time, or just avoid them altogether and reword everything to either use 'player' or work with an implied subject.

So . . .you're panicking, moving furiously but accomplishing nothing while the shit piles up around you. Nice imagery.

Provided you release the print-to-play pdfs to the patch+ backers after the campaign, you should have a pretty good proofreading base prior to printing.

I'd forgotten about this! And we got our taxes back, so I just pledged. Looks like you're on track to meet your goal, though, so that's great!

I went ahead and pledged the $40 CA. I'm not much of a board game player, and I'll be honest in that I didn't read/watch much on your project page. However, I understand the sheer time, dedication, and passion that goes into a project like this, and how insanely hard it is to get something made, and get people motivated, and get people interested, that I had to pledge. Running a successful kickstarter one day is a passion of mine, and if I can't pledge to a friend, then I can't expect anyone to pledge to me one day.

Godspeed, sir. <3
