You know this is nuts having to dig through all of it . . . I tried putting a sheet together to start planning, and I feel like I am missing some of what would come my way as Bloodnamed.

Does any level get the Tukayyid maps included?

Also, a break down of fiction would be . . .

August-  Proliferation Cycle, 6 stories
Dec 2019-  Founding of the Clans I & maybe II?
2020-  Founding of the Clans III
TBD/August?-  1 Hour goal short story
TBD-  Honor & Glory I, II, III featuring backer characters in short stories
TBD-  H&G IV serial featuring backer character

For me this means some guaranteed new fiction for August.

It also looks like the $500,001 milestone (Orbital Drop) has made it so that there are some additions per  backer rank. So now ontop of what you have in your first post, there will be additions as follows:

Ristar = +1 salvage box
Star Commander: +1 salvage box
Star Captain: +1 salvage box
Bloodnamed: +2 salvage box
Star Colonel: +1 Star/Lance Pack (<-- does not specify if this gets doubled, I would assume not)
Galaxy Commander: +1 Star/Lance Pack (<-- does not specify if this gets doubled, I would assume not)
Khan: +2 Star/Lance Pack (<-- does not specify if this gets doubled, I would assume not)

Yup

also, waiting on cubby weighing in on whether the tier product bonuses are subject to the doubling before adding them

Have they added the Inner Sphere lance packs to the add on list yet?  If they do that (like they said they would), I may pledge at the $1 level to pick them up.

If you have the money, do the $1 pledge and then figure out what you would buy from the IS lance boxes to raise the dollar amount to that amount.  It will count towards the stretch goals like the new novel.  For example, I did my Bloodname pledge and then threw in more money for the IS and Clan box I wanted.

That's probably what I'll do after I talk to my wife about how much I can throw at it.  I have no desire to own any clan 'mechs...

Oh but Clan mechs make for a great OpFor. This KS gives me a chance to put together a clan binary super nova.

Sure, for those into the whole clan thing.  Even my 3053 game is set as far as possible from the clan stuff as possible.  The IS offers more than enough OPFOR for me...

Now that I've thought about it; I think a very easy stretch goal to add in (and I think we'll need more) would be to make the fiction more generally available. Looking at the kickstarter this morning

Looking at it now, did they revise the fiction so that everyone above Warrior get's everything? It sure looks that way, but there is some inference on my part there.
Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries

These, in the day when heaven was falling,      Their shoulders held the sky suspended;
The hour when earth's foundations fled,         They stood, and earth's foundations stay;
Followed their mercenary calling,               What God abandoned, these defended,
And took their wages, and are dead.             And saved the sum of things for pay.

Didn't see that.

I believe they did answer it in the faq today:


"Are the additional Star/Lance Orbital Drop Stretch goal rewards doubled under DOUBLE FORCES

Yes, they are rewards and would be doubled"

They could do a pledge for precisely that :-P. Same price of Star colonel, but one of each pack. It would definitely make it more simple.

Yeah, or select Star Captain and pay the excess after the campaign closes - but if you put in extra now it counts towards stretch goals.

another vote for very helpful! ... I feel ok with my Star Commander pledge, now I can wait until the campaign ends to double it and get some extra stuff.

Wish they would just call it 'done' on goals ... the choices are overwhelming!

Have no impulse control and this is very bad for me. When I saw the dice bags were a one shot opportunity I just glumly added them to the list.

Given that we have a Classic Marauder in the boosters, it would be very, very odd to have a Phoenix Marauder II.

If I am reading the FAQ correct the orbital drops get doubled

Figure out what you are going to get and add the dollar amount to your pledge, it will count towards the stretch goals and you still get that use.

Do Not Tempt Me!!!! ... I might do that, I'm not going to go crazy so I have I've got take a look at those lance/star packs and see which ones I really want.  Did I read somewhere if you get a lance pack you also get a salvage box too? or was that only for the pledge level bonuses?

If you select lance packs as your pledge level rewards, you get a salvage pack per lance to make up for there only being 4 mechs in the lance pack instead of 5 in the star packs.  If you buy a lance pack as an add-on, there's no salvage pack included. 

This is in addition to the free salvage packs that were unlocked as stretch goals.
