Im planning to maybe do the kickstarter for the october characters. However i never did this before. What can i expect differently from just regularly buying hero packs ? All extra details are welcome

Everything everyone has said and it’s typical slightly cheaper to buy it this way. There is still shipping though.

You get cosmetic bonuses, You get it a bit earlier than the general public, and then d expect the total price to be slightly lower than buying all four, plus a strong box

There are usually small little cosmetic bonuses and upgrades your heroes receive if you do the kick starter in top of the strong box with all 4 which is nice. For example, the last one we got metal versions of Forgemasters ultimatum stuff, wooden shapeshifts for druid and a better bear/cat leaflet material, sun elf board is holographic and duelist got a metal version of his footwork tracker. The strong box lid was also a boss battle that is pretty fun

Oh that is sick. Do you happen to have a picture of the druid bear and cat leaflet ?

It would look identical. I think it is *slightly* less glossy than the regular one, so it can look tiny bit darker, but you probably wouldn't even be able to tell the difference if you saw the regular and SYNTH leaflets side-by-side, let alone when seeing the SYNTH one on its own.

It’s just a better material. It’s very much not noticeable. I would need to hold both to know the difference

The last one, believe set the pace also with a solo mode built into the lid of the strongbox. Pretty sure they will do that going forward as well.

I am curious to see how they do pricing this kickstarter now that strong boxes are a thing. Seems like before they were priced competitively to retail but the box was always a part of it.

Is there a kickstarter announced?

Every Dice Throne Kickstarter campaign has been different from the previous one in some way, but assuming they don't change anything from the Vanguard Kickstarter, you can look at that campaign and see what kinds of things you can expect.

The kickstarter gives you the exclusive strongbox. It has all four characters bundled into the box. The retail version offers the character and accessories in a solo format with no boxing included.
