WeiryWriter he/him Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) So back in 2012 when the Mistborn Adventure Game launched they sold custom dice with Steel Alphabet symbols on them. Unfortunately they quickly sold out and didn't have an easy way to get them back in stock. Well that is soon changing. Launching this Monday (December 15) is a Kickstarter campaign to bring them back! (Please note that the project is not live and that page is a draft, hopefully this link works once it goes live, if not I'll fix it. Edit: If you have any Questions/Comments/Concerns Crafty would like to hear them, they have a thread on their forums discussing it. Edited December 12, 2014 by Ookla the Ensconced 5
Argent he/him Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 Only $20 for a full set? I am going to fund this so hard... But seriously, this is awesome. I actually never knew about the original dice, so getting my greedy hands on those is so much better - plus, Kickstarter-exclusive perks are omnomnomicious. 1
king of nowhere Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 only one of the faces has a mistborn symbols. if all faces had had symbols, I could have given it a tought. Stilll highly unlikely to have them shipped across the oocean, though, so don't go adding that option just for me.
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 When the page actually goes live, I will definitely Kickstart this. 1
Claincy he/him Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) I managed to get one of the original sets, and I've been wishing I got more than one ever since, so I'm very likely to back it. I don't think I'll have too much trouble finding a few Aussie friends amongst my MAG groups who are happy to split the cost of one of the international 6-packs. For anyone interested, this is what the last lot looked like: Edit: Just for clarity, the dice don't look exactly the same as the new ones. The new ones look cooler imo (Take a look at the kickstarter video that's now up to get a better look at the new ones.) Edited December 13, 2014 by lord Claincy Ffnord 2
Gamma Fiend he/him Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 I would love to fund this and get a set of those die. Also, that would be fantastic if it reaches the 1,200 Backers goal and I could get digital version of the MAG, so I could use my new awesome die and start playing the game! 2
Lord Tavash Shar Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 And those of us who are not retailers but totally need ten sets of dice are Sad.
Oudeis he/him Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 See if you have a Friendly Local Gaming Store who'd be willing to Kickstart it for you if you give them $100. Also, raise your hand if "And we're live!" Reminded you of "I'm FREE!" 5

BlairJ he/him Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Pretty stoked about this! I have my pledge in! 1
Ed Healy Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) I'm excited to see how this does. I love working with Alex & Pat (Crafty Games). Edit: Posted a link on reddit, in case anyone wants to help boost the signal there... Edited December 15, 2014 by Ed Healy 1
Inkthinker Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I've held those dice. They are mighty fine dice.Good deal too. Shame for international orders, but shipping on these babies won't be easy, they're not lightweight. It's good to see an option for overseas fans to bundle their resources for sets. 1
Claincy he/him Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Funded! Stretch goal time Edited December 16, 2014 by lord Claincy Ffnord 1
Jo and the Bush all/any Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Every time I refresh there's another backer. 1
Claincy he/him Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Every time I refresh there's another backer. Refresh more often! Edited December 16, 2014 by lord Claincy Ffnord 2
Ed Healy Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Refresh more often! I second this emotion.
Inkthinker Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Well DANG, that took no time at all to fund. Nice! Dice guaranteed, now it's all about sweetening it up. 2
Crafty Games Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Refresh more often! First, thank you ALL for your support: backers, curators (those who repost about the campaign), everyone! We're so happy we can bring these dice back to Mistborn fans. Now to get to Copper, and hopefully beyond! If we can make $24k we can get these into stores, which will be HUGE for all of us. Let's make it happen peoples! Remember, the number one thing you can all do to help (other than of course backing) is to spread the word. Boost the signal, even if you can't get in on your own. That's the key to making a Kickstarter campaign really work. Thanks again! Again, we're proud and humbled by your faith in us and our little corner of Brandon's big, bad universe. 2
WeiryWriter he/him Posted December 31, 2014 Author Posted December 31, 2014 Alex of Crafty did an interview here about the kickstarter. There's some discussion on the dice themselves, and how the new ones are different from the old ones, as well as working with Brandon and such. It's pretty short, only 15 minutes. The kickstarter is also about 60 dollars away from $1200/bronze. 1
Crafty Games Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Yay! Thanks to everyone who's backed and helped to spread the word. We are so grateful. Let's see if we can get this past $24k. It would be fantastic to be able to get these dice in stores worldwide! Happy New Year! 2
