Last Component Art is now getting prepped
August 28th - via: kickstarter.com
With the campaign over its goal, we've been able to begin on the final stuff for the art--the last big thing is the turn track (which is a guillotine of course!) We've also received bids from presses for printing the game, so that if things go... (Read More)
WOOT!!! Over 5k.
August 25th - via: kickstarter.com
So--busy few days as HS Volleyball season is here. Honestly, I don't recommend gyms without air-conditioning this week or 90-minute trips on school buses with the weather here. Woof! So I get home this evening, do all the stats/coaching stuff... (Read More)
7 days
August 23rd - via: kickstarter.com
We're over the halfway mark. We received queries from a couple of people regarding larger orders (retailers, I reckon) so the total will go up quickly one or two times. The big news today for us at the Foundation isn't really related to this... (Read More)
10 Days to go (-ish)
August 21st - via: kickstarter.com
On the downhill run now. I'd hoped to have a new mock-up of the rules with illustrations but that didn't happen--and now is unlikely to happen before the end of the campaign...not good for promo-ing things here, but it doesn't affect the hoped-for... (Read More)
Historical events
August 17th - via: kickstarter.com
Off with His Head came to us with a 'generic' fantasy setting. The Foundation is always interested in sneaking education into games wherever possible--so the decision was reached to set the game in 18th century France. We had someone comment "But... (Read More)
About the halfway point
August 14th - via: kickstarter.com
We're about the halfway point in the campaign, about the same for reaching the goal--which is ok since we're just getting word out to retailers, etc. The one update over the weekend is that the game box is complete with its layout--text on the back,... (Read More)

Next 10 Days (post GenCon)
August 9th - via: kickstarter.com
In terms of smashing through a campaign goal, putting the first week of the Off with His Head campaign lined up with GenCon--a bit hard to get gamers' attention, I reckon so that you don't get that immediate rush of backers. But--scheduling is a... (Read More)

Hi everyone! Thanks for checking things out. Remember--if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask. We believe in running active campaigns, so we'll try and do a couple updates each week--but not on weekends since everyone should be busy playing... (Read More)
"I think this looks just like Guillotine!"
August 2nd - via: kickstarter.com
So we've had a couple people comment on social media that Off with His Head (OwHH) is a ripoff of the old WotC game Guillotine. I figured that was as good a reason as any to clear up differences--because they are far from similar. Mostly because... (Read More)
