Love it, I backed this (through my retailer) but not because of the stream, rather because of the HC talk of this game before. This would have solidified it if I hadn't already.
A bit late but however...I was just reading through my copy of Das Hornberger Schiessen (1993) and I realised that Game 1 in the rules is a similar game as The Estates/Neue Heimat, except without the auctions (instead you play a card from your hand and redraw). There is also limited stacking (a cannon can have one cannoneer played onto it). It's also by Klaus Zoch (and Albrecht Werstein)
Passed on this game initially, then found out the game was part of the simply complex line. came here, almost backed because of the stream, but in the end decided my group wouldn't react to well to the brutality of it all!
This playthrough just sold me on the game! I've made my pledge!
Was on the fence about backing, but decided I had to back after watching this.
Thanks for the playthrough, definitely going to back this!

Nice finish. Wow.
Watching after the fact, I'm not that big into auction games, but I just had to back this one!

The auction reminds me of Goa, seems good :)
This game looks so good i made it my first Kickstarter back
Clay seems like a great guy -- makes me want to buy the game, despite owning Neue Heimat
I feel like I should just have an "auto-purchase" option for Capstone Games
Backed, easy choice
How'd that talk on rocks go?
