🕑 Added 2022-05-10 12:33:32 +0000 UTCButton Shy Games Battlecrest is live on Kickstarter! Here are your discount details.
Battlecrest is a card-based tactical skirmish game for 2 players (1-4 with expansions), unlike any other. With perfect information, players must truly outwit their opponent to win. Players take turns maneuvering their characters around the hazard-filled map while unleashing powerful attacks. As action cards are used they open up new possibilities and empower the character’s battlecrests. Build up to decisive strikes or refocus to get powers back. Every character has a unique set of actions and preferred tactics, so no two battles play the same.
The first important thing is the campaign link:

NOTE
$18+ supporters: Battlecrest with the Imperator Solo expansion will be offered as the Featured Game in an upcoming BGotMC package.

Any $18+ supporters who would like the additional hero sets with an extra Battlecrest wallet, please pledge through Kickstarter to receive them. Check the table below to see how much to pledge through the BGotMC Members reward.
$5-$12 supporters: None of the content in the Battlecrest campaign will be included in these BGotMC packages.

Shots ring out in the overgrown forest. A rugged pirate, festooned with weapons of war, stomps into view. He scans the nearby treeline with practiced rigor. In the gnarled canopy above, a celestial goddess calls for an ancestral blessing against this implacable foe. With a divine roar she drops to the ground below, swinging her ornate staff with the strength of a thousand lifetimes at her waiting target…
The Fellwoods Base Game includes two heroes, Akhena and Mutiny (and his minion, RIG), and the Fellwoods map. All in just 18 cards, packed in our little wallets. No additional components are needed to play (unless you want to play solo or 3-4 player teams, then read on!)
The Imperator solo expansion is included with all pledges. It enables gameplay for one player to play as any hero against any other hero using these 6 solo Command cards and that hero’s AI rules insert.
How about some more heroes? With more heroes you can get a lot of variety out of your games. You can also play them in solo (either as or against them) and even play 3-4P team games. There are 2 new additional heroes being offered in this campaign: Whispyr and Forge. They will come packaged in their own Expansion Collection wallet.
There are so many more details on the Kickstarter page, including all the information about an add-on wallet to hold any other expansions. Head over there for everything you need to know.

When I first subscribed to the BGOTM I was hoping to just get EVERY Wallet game and expansion just sent to me so I didnt have to figure out the extra stuff! The amount of extra wallet games Iv'e got over the past 18 months as I didnt read properly!! The good news (for Button Shy) is I've gifted the extra's! BTW and FYI to Button Shy - I would still happily subscribe at a different $ level just to get everything Wallet related without having to meticulously check Kickstarter and Gamefound pages...yes I'm lazy!
Christopher Cherng
So the tier I'm on (here in the UK) is called "Wallet Games Monthly (US/UK) £14 per month" - can you confirm if this is the same as "$18 (Wallet games monthly US/UK)" ? I can't make it show in USD.
Sean Banks
Oops... I jumped in and pledged before I saw this thread. You guys are great to offer the discount in KS.
NoMoreContinues
This game looks great and I’m excited to get to play this!
Pendergastt
Thanks. So, how can i do that? whenever i got to choose the game of the month should i tell you and then you charge that 10$ more? Thanks!
Alice
I'm glad you worked this out because I was about to over-pledge, thinking it was $17. I used the calc.
Button Shy
@Shanon Davis In the Kickstarter survey after the campaign we'll ask for the shipping name/address and email you use on Patreon to match up backers and supporters.
temp_anon
Thank you for the clarification! I was a little concerned since I didn't see anything that looked like an expansions only tier in the KS.
Shanon Davis
Right that does make sense reading the table again. It's $1 for the base pledge, $5 for the expansions, $5 for shipping to the UK and then a $5 discount which nullifies that shipping. The thing I dont get is how do you match a pledge through kickstarter to someone subscription on here?
Button Shy
For any supporters not in the US/UK, the two hero expansion sets will be shipped separately if you pledge for them on Kickstarter - adding them to your monthly package requires $10 extra shipping but sending them as a letter is less so we felt this was a better solution.
Button Shy
If you're in the US or UK, yes.
Button Shy
If you are a $18 (Wallet games monthly US/UK) or $23 (Wallet games monthly plus RPGs US/UK) supporter in the UK, the two hero set expansions will ship with your club package and you need to pledge a total of $6 at Kickstarter for them.
Button Shy
This will be a featured game in a future month with the solo expansion. If you want the two hero expansion sets, please pledge at Kickstarter.
Button Shy
Extra wallets are not needed since the Heroes Expansions come in a wallet.
Pendergastt
same here in spain. If i back the expansion will it arrive with the game when it comes in the wallet game of the month? THANKS!
Steve Durham
That's what I think I'm reading, but this will be my first time through KS with the discount, so I may be completely lost. Waiting for clarification just in case. 😅
Robert Everatt
Also is the £14 (+ VAT) wallet tier classed at the $18 tier or the $20 tier. Sorry for the questions new to all this
Luke Green
I am in the exact same situation, and I am utterly confused, the calculator they linked doesn't seem to have our tier, and doesn't even have the level we would need, I thought I understood the Table, but now I'm even more confused. Would love some clarity please.
Eric Ortega
I'm confused on this also. I only want to add the expansions since as a $23 member I should be getting the base game and solo expansion.
Eric Patterson
If I'm understanding this correctly, as a $20+ supporter, I just need to pledge for a total of $6 on Kickstarter to get the expansions, right?
Robert Everatt
Sorry just to be clear as a UK member of the new Wallet Games Monthly (US/UK) who would like Battlecrest plus the two heroe expansions am I included in the $18-$25 row? Do I just need to pledge for the BGofMC level and add the expansions as an add on or do I add $10 ($5 expansion + $5 shipping)? Also will the BGotMC Battlecrest be shipped at the same time as the kickstarter?
Matthew Greene
As a $20+ backer on Patreon, would I be getting this full game (with expansions) through the monthly club or is it something I should back on Kickstarter if I want to ensure I get all the expansions day 1?
Deborah Gard
I don't see on the add-ons a place to buy extra wallets
