In case anyone missed the first Kickstarter for this excellent minis game.
Adam Poots is back on Kickstarter with Kingdom Death: Monster version 1.5.
It's already raised more than the first Kickstarter.

Ah, didn't realize we had a Miniatures forum. I already started one in the Board Games forum :3

I've never played, is it any good as a game?
For me, I'm in the same boat as Rysky, it's enjoyable game. Brutal at times, but enjoyable.
There's a few Beasts of War play through videos. You can also check out some YouTube videos about the game.
I first backed the game for the miniatures, as I came to Kingdom Death when looking for miniatures a long time ago. My first Kingdom Death mini was the Flower Knight. I have purchased several miniatures since.

I was actually pleasantly surprised with how much fun the game actually ended up being.

It's one of the highest rated thematic games on Board Game Geek, if that helps settle anything for you. It has 9.1 average player rating, which is astonishingly high; only the relatively small player base holds it back from higher ratings.
I love playing it, co-op and even solo. The creatures you fight draw their tactics turn by turn from a semi-random deck of cards unique to each creature: the AI deck. It's a great mechanism, innovative and well-executed.
The quality of the game components is as high as you're ever likely to see; a lot of creativity, hard work and talent are behind it.
You might learn more from the reviews on BGG; here's one to get you started.

The first part of the update made me worry a bit, I hope the KD staff aren't getting harassed -_-
on to the slightly good stuff, the Murderer narrative amuses me, since that was the first event we unlocked in our game. The Survivor that bit it was the one that killed the Lion and had gotten a stat boost too...
Young Survivor is adorable.

Parts of the Lion God, Gorm and Forge God are a little off-putting as well...
Yeah, not my favorite armor suit by any measure, but the figures are cool...
Don't forget the Sunstalker!
But yeah, those don't really bother me. It's just the armor.
