Eldritch Bling

By ced1106, in General Discussion

We had a thread in the AH board about custom components for AH, so I figured I'd do the same for EH!

FFG has a "Bag-o-Thulhu" set of Cthulhu tokens, large and small. Use the large one for the Lead Investigator Marker and Mystery Token, and the small ones for Rumor tokens, etc.

RAFM Miniatures has a Cthulhu Miniatures KS, ending soon. The cultists can be used as Rumor tokens, a Nyarlathotep Masks as Lead Investigator Marker and Mystery Tokens, etc. The miniatures, of course, can also be used as monsters. At the Module level, each miniature is about $2.60 apiece, after shipping, including large figures. The Wendigo Epic Monster has been unlocked, and the Father Dagon and two hybrids will be available in 2K! Cthulhu Wars, Mansions of Madness, and the AH miniatures can also be used with EH.

A custom dice for AH and EH KS will also be ending soon. According to another thread on this forum, you will want about eight dice. That's the $9 pledge plus the $3 add-on, for 9 green normal, 6 blue blessed, and 6 red cursed dice. Bags for dice and monster cups are $4 each.

Crafthulhu has a KS for card deck and other component holders. Looks like you'll need three displays, for $75, for EH.

LITKO makes gate stands, and I've also seen them on Etsy!

ced1106,

The KS run by Tom Wilfong for the dice is a great deal! I'm a Backer even though I had done something similar a few years ago over at bgg, in which we had ordered over 1,000 dice for a number of people around the world. Tom has definitely taken it to a much higher level....and with style as he's well-funded!

As for our KS Project, I'm excited to be closing-in on $5,000 and Richard Launius is one of our Backers. These are definitely a great value given our normal pricing, plus shipping in the US is free, and only a nominal amount for additional pieces and associated shipping.

As to what would go well with EH : a few Encounter Displays for which Backers will decide on their artwork; an Item Tray for all of the small cards...and there will be more with the soon-to-be-announced expansion; and possibly a Cthulhu's Caldera (which was the biggest holiday seller ~ the perfect gift for your favorite Arkhamaniac).

Thanks,
The Professor

Thanks for organizing the first set of dice. After reading what Tom's going through, it must have been a lot of work!

Here's a gate holder I came up with from a 25mm x 50mm slotted base for cavalry. It could use more decoration, but you get the idea how it works. More details in this BGG thread: http://boardgamegeek.com/article/14814120

ced1106,

Thanks for posting this on both the EH and AH fora. I think you have a KS project.

Cheers,

Joe

Arkhamaniacs,

We have an exciting 3rd Stretch Goal in mind...but first, we have to make it to $5K by tonight...5 hours to go!

Cheers,

Joe

RAFM Cthulhu Minatures revealed its last-hours stretch goals, and they're of the Epic Eldritch Horror monsters:

Wind Walker: Already added to New Stuff and Module Collector pledges.

Shub-Niggurath: 39K unlock. Added to Expansion Set #4.

Cthulhu: 45K unlock.

RAFM's current catalog also has Cthulhu in metal available for $50 CAD. You can get him with the 25% off sale, or through the RAFM Cthuhlu Miniatures "Insanity Add-On" pledge ($25 CAD pledge gets $50 CAD from the current catalog). You can then add a Module or New Stuff pledge and shipping ($15 CAD) on top of this.

The Module pledge has 49 miniatures for $115 CAD plus $130 CAD shipping. This works out to $2.40 per miniature, including the seven large ones!

Good luck, Joe!

Thank you, sir! We're at 160% funded ~ I'm blessed and thankful for our current Backers...and we still have more than two weeks left in the campaign.

Joe, you should start the poll for the specific displays and show some more magic to make people more involved (I think; sorry if I stepped any boundary here)

Julia,

You're quite right, my friend! I had thought about waiting until the final third of the campaign, but we're definitely close enough. As KS doesn't support polls, I'll prepare one over at bgg. Thanks for reaching out and it's always great to hear from a former and current Backer!

Cheers,

Joe

(and probably future as well. **** it Joe! :D )

When it comes to minis you can't go wrong with those from Avolak Castings. Probably the best "mythos minis" i've seen.

The Eldritch Horror expansion set Epic Monster is Mother Hydra, also available in the RAFM KS. You can proxy Father Dagon for her instead.

Julia,

If they keep coming out with games, we'll be there to service the needs of the many!

Ciao,

Joe

1st and 2nd Stretch Goal Achieved!

And very closed to the 7K one! Fingers crossed Joe ;)

Julia,

You know the answer...but many others may not have known ~ $7,222! Hugely successful campaign and we'll start to accept designs for the EH Player's Plate now.

Cheers,

Joe

Richard,

Wow! Thanks for the recommendation on Avolak Castings ...very impressive. As someone who markets his own product, I'm always on the look-out for really solid artwork and the associated price-point. They're very well done and the price for finely sculptured pieces is commensurate with the level of detail.

Cheers,

Joe

Eldritch Horror fans!

We've completed the artwork associated with the Encounter Displays for EH. Once the "Artist" has completed carving the piece, I'll sent it out to produce the mold and at present count nearly 50 castings! For those who didn't have a chance to be one of our fabulous Kickstarter Backers, we'll have them available on our website.

Cheers,

Joe
