Kickstarter – Through the Breach: A Malifaux Roleplaying Game

Well we are in the last week of Through the Breach and Wyrd has announced some games for this last few days…

This is a Kickstarter I’m really excited about this project as I’m a Huge fan of the universe they have created and I personally have gone in at the top tier.

First off they are wanting everyone who can to share, like and retweet the Through the Breach logo to add towards Santana being available for both the $224 and $125 level backers… Also they have announced some new stretch goals.

So if you haven’t joined in yet and have been thinking about it go over to Kickstarter and make your Pledge.

Malifaux is a successful character-driven skirmish game, with a wide range of detailed miniatures and accessories. The stories of Lady Justice, Nicodem, Colette DuBois, and many other masters of Malifaux are told with furious battles on table tops across the globe. Some rise, some fall, none of these characters have left unscarred. Their fates have become legend.

Now it is time to determine your fate.

Through the Breach is a tabletop roleplaying game set in the world of Malifaux. Players take on the roles of various citizens, such as Gunfighters, Drudges, Dabblers, and Entertainers. Each of these characters is as unique as the players themselves. These are the Fated. As a Fated, you know your future, it has been told to you, as cryptic as the sparrow on a moonless night. It is your task to rush headlong into the arms of destiny, or to carve your own future.

One player takes on the role of the Fatemaster. It is his duty to craft the legends of the other players, to narrate the story of Malifaux in his own vision, and to move each Fated along towards the moment when they must choose between their fortune and their soul.

Through the Breach is a card-driven RPG, with actions resolved through the reveal of cards from a communal Fate Deck. Each player, however, has a Twist Deck of their own, and they can use these cards to push fate towards their own desires. The Fatemaster, however, relies on no such randomness. He is the lord of providence, after all. It is his task to weave a story, and if he dares to touch the Fate Deck… there are repercussions.

Here’s the new Stretch Goals:

The following stretch goals are added automatically to every reward pledged at $125 or more (Living Room, Dining Room, and Gaming Room), unless otherwise noted.

$50,000: Special Edition Fate Deck Cards will be Plastic – ACHIEVED

$100,000: One (or one additional) Special Edition Fate Deck – ACHIEVED

$150,000: One (or one additional) Male or Female Multi-Pose Mini (random gender) – ACHIEVED

$250,000: One Special Edition Hanging Tree Mini. This miniature is of the most prominent landmark in all of Malifaux, originally made available at Gen Con 2012.

$300,000: ???

SANTANA CLAUS: This special stretch goal isn’t based on the total pledge level. Instead, if we reach 500 or more points on the “Ye Old Back-O-Meter One Thousand” the Game Room level ($225 or above) will gain a Limited Edition Santana model to the Game Room pledge level! If we get 750 points, Santana will be added to the Dining Room and Living Room ($125) pledge levels. If we get 1000 points, she’ll also be added to the Core Set ($60) pledge level!

Rather than bury you under a pile of cloth maps and t-shirts, we’ve decided to take a new approach. We want to focus all of our production effort on giving you a few high-production value rewards that we hope you will treasure for years to come. Instead of swag destined for the closet, we want to create trophies with reserved places on your shelves.

Access to Preview Forums: Anyone who pledges ($5.00 or more) will receive special back door access to our Malifaux RPG Preview Forum. In the Preview Forum, we will post regular development notes, gather feedback from our community, and issue play tests.
