Shipping for my pledge came in at less than I estimated based on the post-KS comments so I was quite happy.

I am a Bloodname and for me the pledge is still close.

Probably already posted, but as of 6:30pm EST ... Bloodnamed getting emails to confirm!  :thumbsup:

Got mine done. I made the difficult decision to reduce the number of lance packs and extra urbanmechs I'd get in favor of getting the Urbanmech plush.
Good news is the lab boys say the symptoms of asbestos poisoning show an immediate latency of 44.6 years. So if you're thirty or over you're laughing. Worst case scenario you miss out on a few rounds of canasta, plus you've forwarded the cause of science by three centuries. I punch those numbers into my calculator, it makes a happy face.

Anyone know when the deadline to confirm your pledge as a late backer is? Hoping I can still do this on Monday.

Am I going blind, or can I not just find where the plushie is?

This is what I had to do to find it.

Yup, going blind! ... trying to focus on computer while kids arguing did not help.  Both in bed, tears, no dessert.  Situation normal.

[edit] After 4 or 5 reviews, I think I finally have it all set ... couple of mini packs changed names, and I didn't catch the switch. added plushie (thanks again for help DarkISI). changed shirt size, flip-flopped on some ... done.

now going to sit and wait ...

... and wait some more.

I finally receive the Star Colonel email asking me to confirm my pledge of.. I PLEDGED THAT MUCH?!?  :o  After verification, yup, I pledged that much, but I had time to forget since then.  Now if only I can remember what the extras was for...  xp
And that's one of the reasons for my insurgency thread...  ^-^

Got my email for Ristar level after I wrote my comment.  ::)

2 things that I'm not sure now:
- Did we get a second digital scenario? the last one, ''Last Stand'' is not described as ''when completed'' like the first three.
- Do I have to buy the legendary salvage even if I put 50$ of add-on over the 30$ of the Ristar Level? It doesn't show has a free item added at that point (has stated in the KS).

Was looking at the pledge manager and I have a question on the digital assets.  I received the Diminishing Returns scenario.  Did they release “Last Stand”?  It’s missing the [When Finished] tag on the manager but I don’t see it in the last Dropbox link I have.

Quick question, what happened to the $200 Canon Character Add-on?  I can't find it on the pledge manager.

Well, I just finished confirming everything.  I have to say it was fairly simple, though I think CrowdOx could have made tabs for all the digital content similar to what they did when you were choosing a lance pack.  Perhaps the coding or layout does not allow for such a process.

In any case, it was a fairly smooth process and I only owed an additional $17.  Hard to complain about that.  I'm also liking that they are going to try and have Wave 2 shipped out late 2020.  It might be an aggressive goal, but I think they can accomplish it if they stay on track with the designs, renders, and manufacturing company.

I think the add-ons would have been easier if it could have been divided into multiple pages instead of having everything on one huge page.

I'm thinking I may have to close it and think on some things before finalizing.

Looks like my e-mail came in while I was catching up here in the forum (about 15-20 minutes ago).  It's much too late to embark on something that complicated, so either tomorrow night or over the weekend (more likely), I'll enter my add-ons of IS 'mechs...  :thumbsup:

Ooof...Got mine finalized at last. So many choices! May have to re-open it sometime down the line and add-on some more Dice and/or Faction Shirts, though. :drool:

You know with that Star Colonel being 260 now be sure to double check your math.  I know you don't care about those salvage boxes.  But I am not sure if your savings works out anymore

Uh... Has anyone figured out what to do to select addons for COMSTAR MONITORING STATION level? I took that level because I only want a bunch of mech packs and nothing else, and now I don't see the way to add them.

Extras-tab says "There are no extras available at the COMSTAR MONITORING STATION level." Do I really have to change the pledge level?

From what I understand, you can. When I finished up my pledge, there was a section at the bottom of the page with a link noting that if you need to change anything or add something else, you can re-open your selections.

Is the $360,000 stretch goal ("Honor and Glory (IV) A new chapter-serial fiction story...") that had no restrictions during the campaign really only included for the FULL KERENSKY pledge level folks (of whom there are < 20 on Terra)?  It's listed at $9.99 for everyone else in the extras...could be I missing something?

Aside from that, it's worked very well for me - I'm impressed!
