Without economies of scale, multiple color maps and 32 battlemap sections alone are going to run double that or more.<br /><br />I don't think this is a scam, but the creators seem utterly clueless about what the rewards are going to cost. In the end, it amounts to the same thing: backers are likely going to get screwed.TheShadowKnowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11073693648569864707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-11582175673366278342016-12-11T15:37:48.862-05:002016-12-11T15:37:48.862-05:00Unless it's not a river and instead it's a...Unless it's not a river and instead it's a trenchEN429https://www.blogger.com/profile/11842954567203889362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-40317297713317277502016-12-11T14:38:51.321-05:002016-12-11T14:38:51.321-05:00they talk about:

They set the price crazy low so that they will get something for it and can buy out the project cheaply if there is a tiny bit of funding. <br /><br />There is no video that I see so these could be kids. No knowledge of it, just speculating.<br /><br />If they use CreateSpace to do their printing they can likely get their product printed for less than $10, perhaps as low as $5 given the number of pages.<br /><br />They might be kids doing this which would be like the scene big, "$167 dollars!"<br /><br />So any profit will be considered a huge score.<br /><br />I'm going to back it to see how it goes.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09161799660349741244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-10235843784076292012016-12-11T13:42:35.427-05:002016-12-11T13:42:35.427-05:00The valley reminds me of Thunder rift The valley reminds me of Thunder rift shanepatrickwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09779728578574223142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-60388422835717430672016-12-11T13:32:02.946-05:002016-12-11T13:32:02.946-05:00the valley might be aggressively walled in, but yo...the valley might be aggressively walled in, but you should be able to follow the river out, right?Keith Davieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08411665536982769550noreply@blogger.com
