That’s a wrap, everyone! Your amazing show of support for Revolutionaries has made this project a reality. From the entire MBG team, thank you very much.


Over the next few days we will be reaching out to you about BackerKit and a few of the other things we have discussed over the course of the campaign. 

We are going to take a day to catch our breaths and then get right back into things. If you have any questions, thoughts or ideas please don’t hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

Thank you again for bringing this project to life!

Revolutionary Dice!
almost 7 years ago – Tue, Aug 01, 2017 at 07:24:38 AM

 “Let them call me rebel.”

Great work! We have just unlocked the Revolutionaries Dice stretch goal. Eight custom-made Axiom dice will now be added to all print sets. Sets of dice are also now available as add-ons!

We still have more amazing stretch goals we can unlock before the end of the campaign. Next up is our deluxe Narrator’s Screen, about which we’re very excited. This is a three-panel screen made of sturdy hardcover board and featuring an amazing art landscape on one side, and on the other side, an array of useful information for the Narrator running the game.

Don’t forget that we still have one more piece of code to reveal (see our “Decipher the Code” update), and that our Join the Revolution promotion is still running, which means that if you can rally your troops in the last couple days here, you can earn a free game for yourself!

 "Glorious indeed has been our contest.”

We did it!! With your amazing support, Revolutionaries has reached its funding target. With the campaign now in its last days, there is still time to push forward towards some of those fantastic stretch goals. 

Show where your allegiance lies with our Revolutionaries Dice. At $14,000, we will add a set of eight custom-made Axiom dice in revolutionary colors to every print set. At just $12 per set, you will also be able to get extra sets of dice as an add-on.

Ye that dare oppose not only the tyranny, but the tyrant, stand forth!

634: “Ye that dare oppose not only the tyranny, but the tyrant, stand forth!”

The Revolutionaries campaign has just entered its final days and we are close to our goal. To help us close that distance, we are calling on all our patriots and loyalists to spread the word.

MBG has just unveiled “Join the Revolution", our final promotion of the campaign. If you can help rally at least two (2) other loyal patriots to the cause, and get them to back our Revolutionaries Kickstarter campaign, we will add a bonus reward to your pledge! You can find all the details here: 38 4

As GenCon is fast approaching, we look forward to meeting and talking with any backers who are planning to attend. You can find us alongside Cubicle 7 Entertainment at booth #933. There we will have all the latest Revolutionaries and Unspeakable news, as well as game demos with the MBG team! uwp 541

Thank you for your amazing support, and let us finish this fight together.

The war is inevitable — and let it come!
almost 7 years ago – Thu, Jul 27, 2017 at 04:27:28 PM

 “The war is inevitable — and let it come!”

Today on the MBG website, we have just unveiled our Decipher the Code promotion! Four pieces of Culper code will be transmitted over the course of this Kickstarter campaign. Decrypt and discover the vital intelligence for your chance to win a copy of Revolutionaries, the I AM ZOMBIE Field Manual, and Vampire: The Masquerade (1st ed.), all signed by Mark Rein-Hagen (or with a personal message of your choice).

We have been receiving some wonderful feedback, thoughts, and encouragement over the past few days. There have been some interesting questions as well:

“Nathan, I was wondering if Revolutionaries can be played as either a stealth/spycraft or action/militia style game?”

While our setting focuses heavily upon the Culper Spy Ring, the game provides you the tools to run any type of game you want. If a band of ragtag militia volunteers is your thing, we have you covered. Perhaps smuggling in Rhode Island may be more to your liking. This game can do it.

“Will you be bringing Revolutionaries demos to GenCon this year?”

In a word, yes. As of now, we have two nearly sold-out Revolutionaries events. If you have missed tickets, fear not, the team will be running scheduled demos in the Exhibit Hall.

If you have any burning questions, feel free to drop us a line: [email protected]

This week, we will be hearing from the various team members behind Revolutionaries and examining some of those stretch goals we have been talking about. Don't forget to head over to the official Revolutionaries Facebook group to meet with the design team and provide feedback: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mbgrevolutionaries/

Thank you for your continued support, and a big welcome to all our new backers. We’re all looking forward to hitting that 200-backer milestone!
