Absolutely love this game and models.
Was very happy to get a chance to back this game and love seeing all the new stuff coming out.
Awesome game!
This game totally rocks! No two play-throughs are the same. The models are absolutely amazing, although some are a bit fiddly to put together. Like Krylos45, I’m glad I backed the game and still kick myself for passing on the first KS.
Awesome stuff as always!
That Gambler sculpt is incredible! Mega excited to get Gamblers Chest and wave 4 expacs, just wish I had added more.
Looking forward to the gamblers chest so much.
I didn’t know that game. First time seeing it. With just a quick search about it, I saw incredible sculpts. The minis are very beautiful. I’m going to give this game a try.
*Gargamel laugh*
nevermind the models I am loving the art as well
Those models are superb!!?
I still want Kingdom Death, but can’t justify the price and time sink. Such a very cool and interesting looking game.
Great interview, so chill…hilarious that the artists are helping to manage the line. The models are looking incredible. I can’t wait for full KS fulfillment.
Love these models and initial storyline, but wish the game wasn’t so bloody expensive to get into.
Uuuhhhh shinies! Reminds me that I still got monsters to build and paint… :-/
At least now I am even more happy that I pledged for the First Hero expansion. 😀
Always such imaginative designs!
So excited for the Gambler’s Chest.
Models are just unbelievable.
Incredible game, gorgeous models !
Kingdom Death is table top dreams come true. astonishing time and again.
you’d best be quick with those prizes because they’ll be in the web store next week and there’s no way i’m missing out. Til death do us part encore makes my heart sing. now fingers crossed some of the older resins are left when the web store opens for the feeding frenzy, there are more than a few of the older sculpts i’d like to get my greedy little hands on.
more pictures please.
A pair of Poots. I love seeing all this stuff and the way he works to put it all together. Adam is a true artist.
I wonder if after all the expansions are complete if he will consider a follow on game?
I think Adam suggested as much in this very video.
I see the Poots resemblance.
I love Kingdom Death. Awesome to hear more from Adam!
White Speaker = totally awesome! Just wish Kingdom Death would bring out a smaller, cheaper intro game. Or a purely card-based game – using all that gorgeous artwork.
Every figurine is so nice!
I realyl love kingdom death. Awesome in all directions.
This game is amazing! I’ve only seen the Beasthold Let’s Plays, and I will inevitably have a copy. These sculpts from the expansion are absolutely beautiful!
They make flocking great figure’s strange but great.
My favorite game. Nice to hear where the story is headed.
awesome scupts
I can’t wait to see how they will expand the Kingdom Death universe and what gorgeous miniatures there will be!
Kingdom Death FTW!!
After seeing that Oblivion Mosquito sculpted, I’m really regretting not picking up that expansion. It looks so much more graceful than the concept art. Hopefully with the delay in Wave 4, there will be another reopening of the Pledge Manager.
Fantastic, when they will be up in the KDM shop?
Crazy stuff as always
Awesome minis.
Fabulous models!
The Gambler is just awesome.
When the concept art went up on the kickstarter I thought, yeah sure its gonna look that.
Well you can foogle me stupid.
It does.
All the pretty things, must have lots, and lots, and lots
super game
Love playing my mates copy of kingdom death. he is waiting excitedly for the gamblers chest
Love the game. Sadly the special minis are a bit hard to get in the EU
Love the game. Only one who is a real solo challenge.
Would love some of the limited stuff to be EU reserved, so we get a chance at it here over the pond
love the future hints about going next to kd labyrinth and the first heroe exp. is kind of starting to bridge survivors and heroes !
This game is definitely on my table top bucket list. Maybe one day I’ll get to paint up some of those wonderful minis.
I love the world of kingdom death, great game
Of all the games I have this is the one that ALWAYS set up just an amazing game that shows what Kickstarter really should be for. Just so Poots knows I’m an original bakcer and still don’t have all the expansions lol
cool
I love this game and I am eagerly looking forwards to the rest of my pledge from the kickstarter as it comes out and in the mean time I will continue playing this game.
Thanks for the Interview dracs. Loving the poots!
KD:M is such a beautiful piece of design, and so shamelessly it’s own thing. Amazing to see it continuing to go from strength to strength.
Fantastic game ! Nice interview !
I hope papa poots will reopen the PM for newcomers, I want that GC mini !
Impossible to get too much KDM!
Kingdom Death is THE game I use to introduce people to my gaming hobby. Love it so much!!
I do love the models, I really think if your going to play this game you should make some more 3dish terrain.
KDM is so awesome
I like how the story is planned way before its release!
Love the game and eagerly look forward to the next lantern year on the site. Perhaps my favourite content at the moment.
Can’t wait for wave 3 and the rest of the kickstarter stuff. Echoes of death looks like a really cool addition as well, I hope it will be available after GenCon
Adam always seems like such a chilled out, down to earth guy in interviews.
These models are crazy good
Nice to hear there is an overall world with other things going one, makes the game more interesting for me. My group enjoys playing and we were doing quite well this time until we got hit with the unable to do scientific endeavours. Been much more difficult since then I must say.
This game is a must own.
Have waited all this weekend for this update. Did not disappoint. Time to sit and enjoy with a cup of coffee.
KDM is a greate game, shame it’s kicking my game groups butt at the moment.
Kingdom Death concept art and sculpts are amazing! Would love to see how the game plays.
This. Soooooo this!! My credit card is already quivering at the mention of the store being restocked!! Lotta lovely new sculpts and well curious how Echoes is going to play out.
I would love for Adam and Sam to be related. How cool would that be?
That model looks like the creepy version of atlas and the earth.
Would love to paint these models.
The game is really good, the sculpts amazingly weird and good. 🙂
I need to get into this game. Just finished watching the latest play through and the focus on continuity and the detail fascinate me.
KDM is the most amazing game I have ever played and owned and I am continually blown away by the models and game play. I have to say that the ball of humans looks spectacular and will be great fun to paint; I would like to do as many different skin tones as possible.
This was the booth I wanted you guys to go have an interview with most from GenCon.
I love the playthrough videos you guys do with Chris.
Keep those coming.
so want to get in tho this game.
These models would be so much fun to paint!
Great looking models.
Looks awesome
I seriously need to win the lottery to get this game
Awesome minis and awesome upgrades
Kingdom death has some amazing monsters
I’m watching the GenCon coverage in upload order and this is my favourite so far. @dracs you did a fantastic job on this one!
Kingdom Death just does something to me I can’t explain. I’ve got the game and all the expansions hoarded away for a rainy day. I’ll almost be happy if I lose my job because if I do it’ll be a solid couple of months of KD:M action 😀
Shiny things must have…..
Such amazing looking minis. Dead body ball Atlas is really impressive.
Their minis are the best and they know it. As a lifetime Dark Souls fan, it’s just too much coolness to handle when seeing those pics.
Fantastic interview, well done @dracs for getting something on Labyrinth. That is going to be a must buy as I’m so enjoying KD:M and we still have a couple of years of fulfillment left on the 1.5 Kickstarter.
Really excited for these new models!
Wait, he thinks everyone has seen and owns KD:M already? How rich does he think everyone is?
I had put this game off as I was not interested in some of the “Odder” miniatures. I just recently watched the Lets play on BoW and have to say I am interested now.
I have so much KD:M to paint from the KS. Please don’t give me the prize…..
Kidding! Me! Me! Pick me!
great game, love the sculpts of this
So just what is the plural of Poots?
Looking forward to the Gambler’s chest from the KD:M 1.5 KS. How soon is anyone’s guess at the moment.
Love kdm, can not wait until the new expansions come out
Amazing game, each campaign I try something different and whilst it doesn’t always work out its great to see how the settlement takes it
The greatest models in the history of gaming! Still saving up for it but every time I get close they release something new that I need to also get…
These sculpts are absolutely stunning
So love this game best miniatures and game play I have seen
So impressed with this game!
I have a friend who would really love these additions to his Kingdom Death collection!
I’m trying to explain how amazing that Gambler is to my colleagues in words. It’s hard without showing the picture. I might have sounded like a bit of a weirdo.
I hadn’t experienced any kind of serious addiction until KDM came around. I even quit coffee 3 weeks ago. I doubt KDM will be as easy to shake.
The new expansions look awesome
Adam Poots just keeps on giving, while also taking money from my wallet, and the lives of my survivors. I love it!
It would be an amazing privilege to have a chance to paint some of these fantastic minis.
Thanks for doing this interview!
It took a year to make the Gambler? That’s insane. It might take me 2 years to paint it.
Looking forward to see the new stuff coming!
KMD is amazing
This game is amazing! I love everything about it, and the minis are my favorite in the industry.
Happy they’re so successful and BoW is making an effort to include them in their coverage!
Looking forward to getting the rest of my Kickstarter on this.
Really enjoying the let’s plays
Looking forward to Labrynth – first I’d heard of it
these model are looking great as aways
I think their miniature quality is some of the best in the business
The models in this game are scarily incredible.
Kingdom Death Labyrinth…goodbye another several thousand dollars.
Those are some big beasties. I think I should play this.
Game is unrivaled in my collection. Pretty impressed with the quality of the photoresin models as well, so bring on that White Speaker!
Looking awesome
wow I am soneager to rget my hands on the new echoes promo. hopefully wont miss the online sale this week
I live for this game and the new rules from Echoes really look like they’ll add a great new challenge. I’m really excited after seeing some of the feedback on Nightmare Ram too.
kingdom death is cool but too expensive for me
What was bigger, the line or the gambler’s ball?
The gambler balled up the line
amazing interview!, interesting concept for Labirynth 🙂
Now… Labrynth sounds very interesting. It almost makes this illogical world start to make sense!
The imagination of Mr. Poots is awesome.
This game just gets stranger, darker, and more intriguing as it progresses. Would love to see the BoW team deal with the Gambler.
Kingdom Death is top quality in the industry today.
I hope after this kickstarter is fulfilled Adam puts some effort into improving his business model and serving his customers better. He’s losing a lot of sales with production runs that sell out in 20 seconds.
Such a cool game system and gorgeous miniatures.
Kingdom Death so far has been my absolute favorite game I’ve ever played. I super fortunate to have gotten aboard the first kick starter. I missed the gamblers chest though, and I kick myself every time I see videos like this. Poots, thanks for making one of the best games – in my opinion – available for all of us to play.
I am so amawzed always with everything you have been doing. In line for tickets, I was talking with two others who share my love as well, and we all talked about what campaigns we have done and the joy KDM: Monster has given us – keep it up and thank you beast of war, er On Tabletop, for all your coverage
Love Kingdom Death, the models, artwork, background and mechanics are all just so beautifully done
This is the only interview I “had” to see from this weekends coverage and I was nit disappointed.
The Gambler is an absolute bastard! I have lost so many survivors to his game, just trying to hunt other monsters… but his miniature is glorious! It’s great to hear that Adam is looking at another avenue for resin production alongside his current resin producer.
Now if I had the money to get over there, I’d gladly volunteer…
I’m so excited. Also glad that they decided to hand sculpt the entire globe of people rather than computer sculpting.
Kingdom death knocking it out of the park again.
Can’t wait for the gambler’s chest and new expansions. Those upcoming models look amazing.
Awesome!!!
Kingdom Death is an awesome game. Fantastic miniatures.
Oh Kingdom death i’ve been on the fence about this one i want it so much but it’s so expensive if i win the prize that’d def would have me fall lol , White speaker is one of my favourites
I need more KDM
Wish they’d produce the Black Knight 3D gameboard….
Wish they’d produce the Black Knight 3D gameboard and pieces
I want to win! Love White Speakers and missed the last release sadly.
Thanks for the awesome interview!
Thanks for the awesome interview!
I bet the line was really for, the mini packets of gummy bears. That was awesome, something I will always remember, you guys put so much love in your games and fans, your really appreciated Adam.
Keep being awesome
Those miniatures are awesome! Looking forward to the wave 3 KS fulfillment even if it’s another year away.
Nice to hear news about Labyrinth. Would have also been nice to hear news regarding progress on the Kickstarter itself, however. Was Poots saving that for his post-GenCon update?
Wow the gambler is amazing looking. Any news on when the next wave of kickster deliveries are?
The models are amazing, again a play through would be useful..
Great interview! Love KDM, thanks for the insight.
love playing this game!
Possibly some of the best miniatures ever produced for the market.
Amazing game!
I eat, sleep, breath, and daydream of this game everyday whether playing it analog or digital… Wave 4 cannot come soon enough! Love BOW’s playthrough’s and hope at some point they continue!
Great minis and future developements! Thanks
Good interview, thanks for posting it up faster than anyone else.
Love KDM, hope the Gambler’s Chest hits soon!
Any news is great at this point. Looking forward to the next update. 🙂
So glad I have backed the gamblers chest.
Can’t wait for the gambler’s chest and new expansions to get released
Can’t wait for the GC and the rest of the KS waves, though I know I’m going to have to haha!
Can’t wait for the next waves to start arriving, though I know I’ll have to! Still got plenty in my 1.5 and first KS expansions to keep me going for years haha!
Thanks guys, you are first to bring news this year.
Those are some great looking models.
The artistic output for this game is downright incredible. Very well done, Mr. Poots…!
these models are just too good for a board game but the board game is so well made it is top of my wish list.
Nice interview! Thanks for it!
Hi! Lovely post (poots?). Now… Looking forward to that Kdm: Labyrinth, in… 2022?
I’m here for the giveaway! Tomorrow is my birthday, can’t imagine a better gift if I win that sci-fi Savior! O*O
I’ve been drooling over this for months and have watched practically all the let’s plays on YouTube. What a fantastic game.
One of the best board games out there
Strange to say, but the future of Kingdom Death looks bright.
I’ve only scratched the bare surface of this game, but I’m curious to see what new adventures will be unleashed on the unsuspecting survivors and heroes.
I really wanted to make this my 1st year to go to GENCON, but couldn’t afford it. I love KD:M and can’t wait to see Labyrinth whenever it manifests. Would’ve loved to get some of the new items. Maybe in the store in the future. Awesome displays from the crew per the pics I’ve seen this year too! 😀
Intriguing to hear that he has new games coming up! Love this game to death……..
Awesome stuff!
some very cool models
Can’t wait for the next wave to ship.
My friend keeps trying to get me into Kingdom Death: Monster, but I’ve been too lazy to take the trip to play with his group.
Man, the sculpts he kicks out for this game are freakin’ nuts!
Consistently disturbing and amazing models. Nothing else like this game!
Best game ever! Hope KD Labyrinth comes soon!
Ive always wanted to play this game
Great game! Can’t wait for the gamblers chest!!
Love the kingdom Death minis
THey make some of the best minis out there. I wish my local game store carried them.
Thanks for the interview, love the sound of his ideas for beyond Monster
Cannot wait to see the next wave of content!
This game is great !
this is awesome! my wife and I play this game together what a treat
I love this game so much that gambler model looks ridiculous
Nice but horrific minis.
Great interview! I’ve been waiting to see some KDM Gencon coverage. Hopefully he can give some timeline updates for waves 3 and 4 soon!
i seen some game play on BOW and it truly interesting, but it the minis that got me hyped for Kingdom Death Monster/ One day i save up for this.
haven’t played it yet. May be someone at my LGS has it…
This game has me so hooked. Cannot wait to find out more.
cant wait for more of this
Super stoked can’t wait to go to gencon next year
Great Vision. Great game. Dominates my gaming and painting tables.
Love the game!
Thanks for doing this interview, dracs. The new figures look great and I can’t wait to see more of what Kingdom Death has on the horizon.
Kingdom Death makes some of the (if not the) best horror models out there. Man those are cool!
I’m only at about Lantern Year 8 in my first playthrough of the game because I’m being a total game snob on this one and refusing to play with unpainted miniatures… and I’m not exactly the worlds fastest painter. And yet, even with so much left to paint, I still can’t wait to have the Oblivion Mosquito and Gambler in my collection.
Kingdom Death is one of my favorites! just found it while the second kickstarter was nearly completed but i’ve managed to back this just in time. now im totally obsessed with it. x’D +5 Insanity
EDIT: oh and thanks for the nice interview! 🙂
Love this game. Picked it up after the 1st KS, but went in heavily on the 2nd. The Gambler mini looks amazing!!
What a models!
amazing models. such a pleasure to paint.
Awesome, not only a great video series on this game which is just as entertaining as playing, but solid update too! Thanks
Love the art, love the concept, cant wait to get my hands on some of the new content
Can’t wait for the Gambler!!
KD:M is amazing. Can’t wait for more content.
Just put the Gorm together, that Gambler though….
Still have some of the old expansions to assemble but I’m already itching to see the gambler’s chest and new expansions in person. The addiction is real.
My core set and expansions turned up in recent months, exquisite stuff. Echoes of Death would make a nice addition
One of the gamer’s in our group decided take the plunge and get the game this weekend, along with a couple expansions. Seriously, Kingdom Death should be a subgenre in of its own at this point. Definitely want to add more to the collection.
Unfortunately i missed the kingdom death KS – otherwise that would be an all in for me
This is my favorite game and one my least favorite companies. Amateur hour never ends. Not saying it’s easy to run a company but it is easy to update your 13 million dollar kickstarter more than once twice a year and keep products in stock on the only portal available to your customers.
Free things now please BoW and thanks for the interview! 🙂
Blah…that came off so negative and dicky. Seriously I’m sure KD tries hard to meet demand. It’s hard to balance my endless desire for this company’s products with their size and limited production capacity.
Themis game is so wonderfully strange and unusual and those miniatures are just amazing… keep producing great immersive games.
Just got the game at Gen Con and can’t wait to start playing with my group!
Can’t wait for gambler’s chest!
The art behind this game and the miniatures are stunning.
The models in this game are mind blowing.
good to see hobbit family catch-up video. The models are the stars though
Labyrinth sounds pretty incredible, excited to see how that turns out. The two new expansions they demo’s look great, it’s cool they are making the environment have more of an impact.
My buddy has been playing KDM with some work friends for months now.. and they love it… I really am interested in picking some models up to paint up… or I really just need to get into the campaign my buddy is in! lol
Questionable sculpt material at times, but the minis are certainly well made
Great game
I wish they would learn to restock their EU warehouse. It’s almost like they don’t actually want anyone to buy their stuff. Great game though.
i need this in my life
i accept as tribute
Missed getting the Dragon King expansion at the con, but had a great demo of the black knight.
I have the game, but have not played it yet. The new miniatures look great, I am especially looking forward to the Ivory Dragon. I wonder how big that one will be. Also interested in the Labyrinth game and how the heroes will play a role. Thanks for the coverage.
I’m still building all the models… lol! Just too much really, but in a good way.
Love this game…
Our current Kingdom Death run through has been nuts but Labyrinth sounds intriguing.
I always wanted to try this game from BoW game-through videos I see it’s a bit hard game to beat.
Love this game. Can’t wait until I get my hands on it. Loving your let’s play of it.
Useless to say that The Gambler looks AWESOME! (but I’m saying it anyway) Really happy about how the Gambler’s Chest I picked up during the KS is turning out to be.
Good looking minis.
Nice.
This booth was insane.
I’ve heard good things about the game
Keep meaning to get into this game. The miniatures are beautiful.
And Sam we need a BOW “who do you think you are?” Video now. Who owned the farm?
Looks like fun
This is good stuff
This looks really cool
Does anyone ever actually win these contests?
those are awesome
this is beautiful!
Love the models, just have to get up enough nerve to paint the ones I own.
I’ve never had the opportunity to play the game but the minis look amazing. True works of art.
I love these minis
Only just found this interview! Love all information about Kingdom Death, because it’s so hard to find any at all! Can’t see any deadline for the competition, but I’m guessing it’s already passed… Is it possible to see the winners of competitions anywhere?
totally awesome game.
So much good stuff!
This is exciting stuff!
Abolutely stunning minis
Nice minis but I don’t know weather I have the skill level to paint them.
Stunning models
From the other side of the world – great to hear Gencon is fun. 2 Poots! Does this mean we only wait half as long or is it …
