Yep.

$100 plus shipping (whatever that ends up being).
Of course, the version Will is talking about is probably has the same contents as my extra one.

I've tracked down copies of all the sponsored counter sheets for me, but those were not included in the Kickstarter itself.

So my unsealed copy only has the original contents, plus included stretch goals. Same as the one Will has..

Which is still huge.

Steve Jackson sold the thing at loss, of that I am sure. He says he did it because it was his first game and he wanted to (and the Munchkin money let him).

It looks like most of the sponsored countersheets are still obtainable, although in some cases a bit pricey.

Will, your deal sounds good but shipping may work better than say hand delivery because like I use public transportation and I am not sure I could transport that monster around on a bus. :D

Also I am impatient and don't want to wait until I move.

Ah, I was hoping you'd be willing to ship but that's fine. :)

Okay so here:

http://www.sjgames.com/ogre/sponsored-counters/

The first one is out of print. The rest seem to be available.

Are they all worthwhile or are any of them skippable?

I'm not going to order any until the ODE is making its way to me, but I am having trouble deciding because Not Enough Information.

I skipped many of them, as they are just the existing sheets in new color combinations. A few of them have unique units or terrain - one has the Ninja OGRE. The boardgame geek sheets have unique terrain and targets and monster.

Definitely getting BGG. Also the overlays.

Some of them also have scenario books.

I'm really hesitant to get Barbarians at the Gates because it's $31 and they suggest the ideal is to buy two.

I will almost certainly get the two SJG is selling (Nightfall and Uncommon Ogres).

I guess what I am waffling on is the Nihon counter sheets.

It's so weird you are talking about OGRE here. I was about to buy OGRE 6e as my new game when I ran across Fed Com!

Ogre 6e is a good choice too!

I had a lot of money to spend on stuff this month so I got Ogre 6e and Federation Commander, and yeah.

I love the 3d ogres.

Make sure you read up on some of the sponsored counter sheets. Some of the patrons flaked out, big time (Iron Mountain Games, for one).

Before mjwest has to tell us to, we really should take this discussion to another topic, as it's drifted pretty far from Federation Commander.

I've opened a topic under Outside the Star Fleet Universe Realm

My rabco sheets arrived. I think I may have ordered too many.

We'll see, when I get around to storing the ship cards in them.

Excellent plan!

but I ran out of my extra money today. It'll have to wait a few months.

The alternative is to pass extras on to djdood.
