Twelve Elements of War - kickstarter Alive/Dead?

Dadgum, wish it hadn't happened the way it did but it did. They had so much interest they decided to pull the kickstarter and now they are offline ot revamp and improve their system since there was so much interest in their product. It's sad but glad. I'm still wondering, since I only joined kickstarter to find a game like this to take the place of GW, whether I'll even have the money to put up for a great game system like this. Who knows, life changes a lot though.

There's a smell of Kickstarter in the air or is that Christmas?

I've noticed an uptick of Kickstarters and I'll remind myself of one I'm going for as a Christmas gift from the family.

First one up is my personal favorite and one I am going to give up GW for if they turn out well.  Yahoo for more models coming and I pray the simplicity in their rules really enables a fun game to take place.

 The War and Empire seen with 15mm ancient warriors.  Interesting but is anyone playing 15mm lately or are we still claiming 28mm doesn't take up too much space?  Either way, I'm not a follower of the norm and really like these models!  Take a look at Anatolis for his review and more information.

The last one we should all keep an eye out for later next year is the Castle Kickstarter from miniature building authority with a  pretty cool update to their current castle system.  Here's a great picture of what they have from Tabletop Fix.
