Yeah I have grown to like the simplified rules as well! I would like too see if i can rebase them though, put the infantry on 20mm square bases and the cavalry on 25x50mm square bases. That way I could still play "A Song of Ice & Fire" with them (since the movement tray and number of models is all that counts there) and also play Empire/Bretonnia with them by placing the models on other movement trays.
Right now I have pledged for 2x Starter Sets, 2x boxes of Cutthroats and 1x extra box of Knights of Casterly Rock. If they release some more sweet stretch goals and addons I will try to get them too. At the moment the KS is picking up momentum with only 6 days to go, and the next stretch goal will unlock 8 additional archers for the base box/pledge, rounding it up to a total of 12x Archers.
They have hinted that Bolton Cavalry is coming, and their artwork looks really menacing and great!
I would recommend joining in on this Ks, I think this is a nice deal for the amount of miniatures you get.
