I tried so hard in the last update and Kickstarter deleted like every bit of work except for some lines of text that make no sense. I am so tired lol. Here goes again, but so much more sassy than before now that 3 hours of work is wasted (plz read) 😆
This guy is completely awesome. He is now your favorite character, probably.
He chops, he hurls axes, he heals TREES! And he'll also heal an angel if he has to, but whatever.
This next part was copied and pasted for lowest levels of effort b/c I'm tired and sassy right now. It's still worth reading though.
New Angels Revealed & Stretch Goal Summary
Since the beginning of this campaign, we have unlocked 48 Stretch Goals, revealed 3 new Angel characters (the 4th is revealed tomorrow), revamped our "True Solo" Intercessor, unveiled awesome new add-ons, & more. Here is where our Kickstarter journey has taken us:
4 New Angels Revealed!
These are the awesome angels we revealed during KS. I made'ed dem.
(That line was the last thing that Kickstarter didn't DELETE upon my posting. Now I have to tryhard one more time so this update actually has the info I promised. Also, I can't remember, because my memory is equivalent to a goldfish because I really need a nap)
Deliverance, now with MOAR ANGLES
Angels too.
And if your name is ANGELA, we won't be mean to you on accident if you buy our expansion.
Check out that typo on Massive. Sorry, Angela.
This is all dated information b/c we knocked down a new stretch goal since last time. Yay!
MOAR WORK FOR US! But it's ok, the team is ready for it. I just need a nap first.
This is pretty close to the face I made when I saw my work was lost but it got published anyway:
Run a Kickstarter, everyone! I am only 21 years old. You can see how youthful I look after 23 days of this. It's easy. Especially the Kickstarter interface.
Also, I want to mention there couldn't possibly be any user error involved, because of course. No idea how, so I should blame Kickstarter 😆
Ok, sorry Kickstarter, it was probably me.
Now that you're amazed by me, would you back my Kickstarter?

Nebuchadnezzar, the Heavenly Hunter!

Nezzy as a playable angel was one of the most popular requests from you, our fans. I wanted a less complex angel build for the expansion, and after thinking it through, Nezzy seemed to fit the role. After initial internal tests went well, we decided to go for it!
Inspiration
"The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched till its wings were plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a man’s heart was given to it." - Daniel 7:4
Nezzy is theologically modeled after the Living Creatures of Ezekiel, but his design is based off the "first beast" of Daniel chapter 7, which is a foreshadowing of the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar. He would begin as a wicked king, but then would be given a new heart. As the book of Daniel tells, and Nebuchadnezzar himself writes, this story was an incredible tale of transformation. This story inspired our company logo, which can be seen in the way we designed his miniature sculpt. If you angle it just right, you'll see a heart in the wings!
Gameplay
Nebuchadnezzar features a few new things we have not yet done before: A "free action" Courage generator that deals damage, and a Courage spending skill that doesn't actually require you to spend any Courage!
Instead of using Courage to deal damage, Nezzy uses it for movement. Fury Swipes fills Nezzy with Courage, which he uses to dash across the battlefield with his mighty Alpha Hunter skill. Nezzy has plenty of other ways to use Courage in his Talents, too.
For allies, his Heart of Man heal can bless them with desperately needed fuel as well, so he doesn't just horde all that beautiful golden Courage to himself. Many of his skills pay homage to his "Ally" card which is used with Ariel, but this angel comes with his own miniature and character card. You can even play Ariel + Nezzy AND Nezzy, the Heavenly Hunter together. These Living Creatures can collaborate together to do some really incredible things both offensively and defensively.
Check out a live play featuring Nezzy, the Heavenly Hunter below. I played on Infernal difficulty, which is always intense. The game lasted about 1.5 hours, which I followed with some behind-the-scenes info about Nezzy and my general impressions of how our Council of the Fallen campaign is coming along!
Did you know...
Deliverance has been featured in a lot of cool places at this point. Deliverance is the highest-rated game in BoardGameGeek's "Religious" category, too!

Ziyra, the Faithful Watcher + FREE CARD DIVIDERS?!

If you hadn't realized yet, Deliverance is currently live with a new expansion! You can check out the campaign here.
$224K Funded & Smashing Stretch Goals!
We have just unlocked card dividers to help you keep things organized and tidy within your Deliverance boxes! This will ONLY be included in stretch goals for backers of the Deliverance: Council of the Fallen Kickstarter. They will be available to purchase for $7-10 after the campaign.
😍 NEW ANGEL: Ziyra, the Faithful Watcher!
Ziyra was instructed by the Son of Man to stand watch over the Hebrews, wielding a shofar, her trumpet blasts encourage her allies in times of war & peace.
Ziyra introduces our first angel-specific keyword: blast. This keyword is located in skills and Talents, and it triggers her powerful passive skills - War and Peace.
She damages demons or heals angels depending on which passive is selected, so you must swap strategically if you want to be effective! Her weak stats depend on War for damage, and Peace for healing. Those interested in a deeper gameplay experience will love the strategy behind Ziyra.
You can read more about Ziyra's gameplay and what inspired this angels design in this Kickstarter update.
I played a version of Gabriel that I had never played before that focused on protecting the Saints, and was delighted to find how useful it was to the team! Commissioned is a powerful skill, indeed!
I plan to play an Infernal Difficulty game of Deliverance on Board Game Arena a few times each week, including Saturdays on YouTube for those with work commitments. I figured out how to play and manage chat at the same time, so we can all hang out together over some Deliverance! I am in the Discord voice chat, so you can join me and talk there, or join in via YouTube chat.
For those of you that want to join, my next live play of Deliverance will showcase Ziyra in action against the darkness!
WHEN: Saturday, September 28 at 8am PST / 11am EST / 3pm GMT+0
