Hi Frank, congratulations on the success of the KS campaign so far. I think you've built a very interesting world and some interesting gameplay and I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it!

1) Any chance in the future we would get to experience Vesh's rise to power or a more morally grey setting (rather than simply always saving the world)? 2) how much time did you dedicate researching and preparing for the Kickstarter? You mentioned that you didn't launch it until you were sure the game was good. 3). Did you use a lot of resources like Jamey Stegmaier's blog to prepare?

Thanks

Generally board games are expensive because of the amount of physical components plus the relatively small print runs. Not too mention salaries for everyone who designs the game, markets, distributes, etc. A lot of games only print thousands (not tens or hundreds of thousands) of copies so they just can't achieve huge economies of scale like a lot of other entertainment products or toys.
