I started looking into this one a couple of weeks ago. I love the style and setting, plus the minis look really impressive.
Some of the gameplay mechanics look pretty fun, but i wasn't loving some of the conflict mechanics. If the price had been lower, i might have considered going for it anyway, but at the prices i've seen the game would need to be coming across as perfect for me to splurge that much on it.

So, I kickstarted it but I was a complete idiot and missed the backerkit until late, I was convinced it had been done but I had actually done it for Zombicide.
So eventually I will receive my copy but not sure when

I've played it! We had a 3 Player game a couple of weeks ago. Really enjoyed it Smile

Typical for CMON stuff the minatures are ace and some of the kickstarter bonuses were really nice too - for example the action selection cards are by default your common or garden thick cardboard tile but one of the kickstarter benefits were plastic tiles to use instead that were very pleasingly "clacky" - think Majong tiles.

Mechanically speaking the game is pretty good, but I did find the game played rather long in the later stages - it's not a game for AP sufferers at all.

I guess the nicest thing I can say about the game is we immediately scheduled a follow-up game for the next week Smile
