Episode #007 - Board of Mapping Kickstarter Interview is RATED T for strong language. In this episode Harvey meets with John Chambers and James Barefield about their Kickstarter project: Board of Mapping! Board of Mapping is a non-premium mapping solution to tabletop role playing games for players that prefer not to play on the Theater of the Mind. It's an amazing project with top notch quality art as well as craftsmanship. Granted these are still prototypes, but they are working on getting even better quality pieces made. The operational goal for this project is to create a mapping solution that is immersive, interactive, quick to set up, and - best of all - affordable! Their financial goal is $7,500 which, at the time of posting this podcast, they have hit to the tune of $9,715. With 17 hours to go, they could still use some help getting more backers, which increases the money they can throw at the production side and further increases the quality of the final product. But get on it, nerds. You have until about 5:30pm on Monday, October 29th, 2018 to back it. If you miss out, don't worry, we will be carrying it in our store.
