What do you guys think? I'm not particularly impressed the the core race expansion boxes, but I think that's mostly because of where my fleet's at right now.

I've committed to the Admiral Pledge.

Wow, that's certainly showing your support.

I'm definitely planning on backing! I haven't quite decided what level I'm going to go in at. I probably will go more basic on the pledge, but then add a few of the other goodies as add-ons. Since only my Terran fleet is really fleshed out, I'll probably use the expansion boxes as a springboard to start a new fleet or two ;).

I'm already wallet deep in the DW Kickstarter with a Fleet Admiral pledge plus a ton of add ons. I'd be tempted but since I've not received anything on the DW side, I'm skipping the FSA one.

I'm not particularly irked at Spartan as I expected delays (as with almost all KS) but I'm simply not paying for Kickstarter 2 when I've not received Kickstarter 1 yet.

I agree with this sentiment. Would like to have seen most if not all of the DW kickstarter backers get their rewards before Spartan launched a second KS campaign.

That being said, I likely wouldn't have backed this one anyway. I just don't play Firestorm enough to justify the expense. But I do wish them success because I know the game has a lot of fans, especially in the MBS community.

The Commodore pledge was too rich for me, and I have no interest in making up new ship designs.
This is my 1st Kickstarter.... even the Conan one didn't draw me in, until now!

I stuck with the pilot pledge, but I chucked in an extra £30 so I could get the fluff books and token set

I am backing it for the new rulebook but the new miniatures don't really do much for me but I might go for some more ships.
I am more concerned about things like medical and repair ships which seem to have a useful campaign role but not one on the table top except in scenarios.

It has still not made it's target which seems a bit worrying.
