Here is the link to the beta rules: Apparently only 4 actions per turn 1 - but the cards are more focused in giving free actions so it changes the make up of the games. According to the designer as the 'fightiness' of DBX is so much more having 5 actions where a team is out to Hurt you means they can do ALOT more damage in contrast to regular DB so I presume the 4 actions reduce this and alot of the cards will be focused on moving/ball interaction. Just a guess ATM with the cards www.manticdigital.com/digital/beta

I think the we are just begining to see the gap widen between the 2 pledges and I think it will widen a bit more as the kickstarter goes forward but I doubt there will be a massive gap as it is only the difference of $50 (about £30 if you take the current exchange rate) on the pledge. So far you will get 2 mini teams, extra MVP's, the tile expansion and a Giant for the extra money. It will only need a few more things to sweeten the deal.

I would like to get the box set and that but not a great fan of the prisnors and just so much I want but not sure what to go for.
I will say get the acrlic counters if you can as they are so much better than the cardboard lot.

I think Mantic have realised people are holding out for more info and few are commiting to the maximum pledge level. They are adding the season 5 teams each day for the next few days. I already shared the Crystallan team and The Brokkrs are the $400k stretch goal. The final 2 season 5 teams are Sphyr TeamThe Sphyr were from a waterworld before the Corporation stripped the planet of its natural assets, leaving a dry, arid planet in their wake. The Unincorporated - Rebs TeamRebs Sorak – just one of the multitude of races that makes up the Rebs!

Rebs are a Dead Zone faction made up of a host of Aliens - yes I think Mantic changed around the goal targets and expectations and seems it hasn't worked for them so they will need to throw in lots of 'free' stretch goals that they had planned and drop the profit margin.
good for us guys.
So who has pledged what put of interest as I have a feeling lots of us are pledged in at $150 so there will be alot of teams floating about after delivery time!

I have just pledge $150. might change my mind (but wont go higher). The main reson was that I want to have a copy of the base game and they have not anounced how much it would be to add it on to someone elses pledge. I'm banking on this pledge level also getting one of the season 6 teams, if not I might drop it back to $100

So with 12 days left I'm going to sit on the $140 early bird pledge.
Like Paul said seems they are not going to add extra copies of the game in as add ons.
I'm going to add the speedball character, Acrylic counters & Mouse Mat original DB pitch in to mine.
So with so many of us going for the 150 the question is... What extra team? I like the look of the Rebs & Crystalls so far how about you guys?

lucky getting an early bird so late, I keep hoping to be there when someone frees one up if they change to frenzy! Not sure about teams yet just doubt it will be the dwarves. The Rebs will be interesting as it looks like the models will vary alot, The Chrysatlins will be interesting as they will be cast in clear blue plastic just not sure how well they will paint. I'm intersted to see the fluff around the Sphyr

I'm thinking Rebs, blue aliens & Prisoners to be my main focus - now what to play first.
One thing I hadn't checked at all - when is the delivery date?
