Yes, good luck.

Re: IRON KINGS, Bicycle deck,...Now live on KS
I am not a fan of these type of "computer animat-y" decks. However, this is the best one I've seen. It follows a theme (it's not all over the place), the backs are nice and props on keeping an eye out (pun intended!) for traditional card details like the one-eyed JoH.
Good luck with this! I think it will get funded.

Re: IRON KINGS, Bicycle deck,...Now live on KS
I think these guys hit on a good idea. So much could have been done with a coat of arms and royal colors but I think they missed the mark. They could have done a lot more with the backs. I appreciate that era of history so I would jump on these if they did more. As it is, these things are subjective, looks like funding is going well. Good luck to the creator.
Re: IRON KINGS, Bicycle deck,...Now live on KS
Thanks for the comments guys. More are welcome..
This is my 2nd deck, 1st one was Emotions deck that failed on KS but was picked up by a serious publisher and will be printed by uspcc, Bicycle branded.
I'm still having fun creating Iron Kings and I also have many ideas for future designs,...I'll do my best so every one of you can like at least 1 of those designs
Johnny Whaam will be (is) a serious creator for card deck designs, I plan to be here a long time (and on KS). Of course, I need backers for that...so, thanks to all that pledged, all that post comments cause I need feedback from card collectors,...you suggestions will help my designs being better. And,...backers that will pledge,...thank you also.

The Queens in armor look odd. Kings and Jacks make sense, I don't know about Queens.
Re: IRON KINGS, Bicycle deck,...Now live on KS
Hehe, thanks for the suggestion sinjin7,...actually I corrected that in the 2nd part of the sentence, there's an "I" there We will try to avoid it

Re: IRON KINGS, Bicycle deck,...Now live on KS Take 2
Not a chance in hell I'm backing. Goal is waaaay too small to do a USPCC deck and they don't even know if they will make money or not.
Also very short time window to fund, really spells disaster.It's probably not gonna be any profit for us here (or very low) so...the only reason we're back....are those backers that really wanted to have Iron Kings in their collection (hope others will join us .

As is written on our main KS page, this is our 2nd try with Iron Kings,...previous goal was set as $8,800...printed by USPCC. We made it to +$3,000. So yes, as it is written this goal is small cause these cards won't be printed by USPCC (unless we reach $6,900, also written).
The time for this campaign is 15 days cause this is a 2nd try, no point having a 60+60 days campaign if not so many people wants these...
So, yes...., we're only doing this campaign for those few backers that want this deck in their collection.
I know how much we will make if we hit $2,000...(I'm very good at math but...that's such a low and funny number that it is not worth mentioning it. Our effort should really be appreciated cause we're only doing this so few of our backers can be happy to get an Iron Kings deck.
So NO, it is not a disaster,...we appreciate our backers and this campaign is made and intended only for them (from 1st campaign).
If anybody else would join us,...then this deck would be printed by USPCC (we tried that in our first campaign...and failed)
If you guys like the design,....would be nice to have you as backers cause you're gonna get this deck in about a month (if you pledge for it , faaast.
Thanks
And, more designs coming...., all designed and illustrated by Johnny Whaam.

Re: IRON KINGS, funded ! .. Last 2 days on KS !
We're over the goal and...if you haven't pledged...., well..now is the time to do it
You'll all get your decks real soon. I'm sending the files to the printer in 2 days and I expect the delivery in next 15-30 days.
Under 350 decks will be available only !!! No plans for further print. If you want something unique (almost ), here's the link:
