West Wind Productions’ Empire Of The Dead Kickstarter Live!
February 14, 2013 by brennon
In the wake of the collapse of Beyond the Gates of Antares and it's Kickstarter a new one rises from the ashes and hopes you will pledge. Check out West Wind Productions Kickstarter for Empire of the Dead...
This fundraiser aims to complete their already growing miniatures line and get you a whole bunch of different models for the various factions. Above you can see the limited edition miniature that will be a reward for all who pledge, Nadezhda Durova - Vampire Slayer.
West Wind have a nice selection of miniatures on offer and plenty that are still locked waiting for pledge levels to rise. There seems to be a faction for everyone in this game, from zombies to policemen, to werewolves and vampires.
My particular favourite has to be the Brotherhood. Priests with guns are always fun!
If you fancy being a really big contributor they also have a pretty special prize for you. Pledging £700 nets you a one off miniature done to your own specifications. Pretty crazy!
What do you think of this Kickstarter?

Too bad I don’t have room in the budget for an other Kickstarter AtM, they a coming as fast as out of a guy with Norovirus 😉
Shouldn’t that be GOING as fast as someone with norovirus.
If they were fast coming that would be… oh never mind! lol
Know what you mean @rasmus.
So many kickstarters.
This does look super sweet though.
Have a few ideas but not the £700!
I think I did mean to write “Something out of a guy with …”
better not dig that hole any deeper for my self.
but sadly enough, if I go for an other KS I might also to have to look for a new wife …
There’s no need to choose between Zombies and Policemen. A truncheon to the head can help deal with zombie outbreak.
The first Stretch goal is £20,000 for Tatu the half vampire servant of the Broken Dawn Cult

There at £17,913 at the moment so just over £2000 to go for the stretch.
I hope this really takes off. Nothing worse than wanting to play a game that no one seems interested in.
EotD has generated a lot of buzz even before this KS. With rules being released as a PDF now, it’ll be even easier to get the “book” and see what’s it about, before investing heavily.
It’s also to the game’s advantage, that you don’t actually need much more than a starter, to play a solid campaign. Check out this blog for very informative review of EotD;
