Kraken Wargames - Gamemat Kickstarter

I keep an eye on Kickstarters and one that has some appeal is the current one for Kraken Mats.

This mats are the photo quality mouse mat cloths made popular by Frontline Gaming and Gamemat.eu.

The Kickstater has 8 days to go and this video gives you an idea of the product:



The killer on all these products for people in this part of the world is shipping. I contacted the creator Tobias and he indicated 100 Euros per 6x4 mat. That makes a purchase pretty prohibitive.

So I was pleasantly surprised when he contacted me yesterday and said he had done some investigation and could ship two mats for 50 Euros. That makes the cost around NZD150 - which is very competitive.

If it appeals then I suggest getting in before it closes. It looks like all themes will be unlocked by the end. I'm intrigued to see what the cobblestone looks like. A word of caution though - NZ buyers need to limit purchase to two mats per package so as not to run foul of Customs charges.

So great customer service from the creators which gives me a great deal of confidence that they will deliver.
