Swords&Sails: Stretch Goal Update #2
about 6 years ago – Wed, Apr 25, 2018 at 04:15:26 PM

Hi All,

We have unlocked our Leader Cards stretch goal and since there is popular support for backers to have the Minor Player factions as Add Ons as we have not yet started accelerating the funding curve, I have made the modifications to the descriptions to allow for that.   In addition since it was overwhelmingly requested, I have added a higher level pledge to include all the Minor Player Factions in the Emperor Backer level.  You will be guaranteed to receive at least the 3 initial minor players with that pledge level and all stretch goal minor player additions as well, even if we do not get them unlocked as stretch goals.  The Knight and Duke level will now automatically include one Minor Player stretch goal once its unlocked and the King level will include two.  

As additional minor factions are unlocked beyond the one or two included, additional minor players can be added as add ons.  Allowing you two get as many as we are able to produce based on funding level (as what we get unlock) and by choice of the minor factions you want in your game.   The cost above the included will be $20 for each additional minor player faction (just add $20 to your base pledge for each) or $45 if you wanted to include 3 minor factions in addition to what you would receive at your pledge level.  If you are pledging at the Baron or Warrior level, you would have to add this cost to get the additional Minor factions (this is not a change to Baron and Warrior levels as the stretch goals for minor factions was already listed as Knight and above).  Notice it's maybe cheaper to upgrade to a higher level.

We may still have some pure Minor faction stretch goals mixed in as well depending how the funding goes in these last few days.

Swords&Sails: Revamped Stretch Goals
about 6 years ago – Wed, Apr 18, 2018 at 12:44:54 PM

We have revamped the early stretch goals.  It is now just a bit easier to fund some of the early stretch goals.   We have also added the Kingdom of Poland Minor player.  Additional Minor Player Stretch goals to be added later includes Kingdom of Hungary, Caliphate of Qurtuba (Cordoba), and potentially the Kingdom of Leon and the 1st Bulgarian Empire.  We will be holding polls to get input on what order we should be offering the minor players.  Here is the survey LINK.  Below is the initial restructured Stretch Goals:
