I must have slipped in to an alternative dimension, the one I came from had the Wrath pre-order counter at 4481, in this dimension the counter reads 4482.
Can anyone tell me if it rains tacos in this dimension?

No, we just get raining ice cream every now and then. The raining taco dimension is about three dimensions northeast of here.

When I was having trouble placing my preorder, I was told that since it was clear I was attempting to place an order before the event ended, they could add me in even if the trouble persisted thereafter. That being said, I was able to get things resolved before that, so that's not mine, but I'm guessing someone was having a similar dilemma.
Still no updates.....? Back in Kickstarter days, we got updates every Tues and Thurs.
Here's a thought, I hope GtG comes back with a surprise update that says "Hey! Thanks for waiting this long! As an appreciation for your patience, here's a shiny new super secret promo card!" *YEAH*
"Enough" isn't the point, if they don't want people to point out they're not doing something, perhaps they shouldn't say they're going to do it?
From the blog
"While a preorder is running, we will post daily updates on week days."
We got 9, of 23 and one of those was "Hey, it's over" which would extend the number of updates to 24.
I love what the >G guys and girls do for us and (think I) know how hard they work for us to get the game out to us, never mind all those lovely extras as well, but I never take anything they say regarding a timeline seriously, it's either ridiculously padded (to our benefit) or ignored for more important things (which I'm also good with).

Deadline may have my favourite backstory of any villain yet.
His story has to be key for what is coming after this expansion. something is coming that he feels is worth nearly wiping out our planet to prevent. Something wicked this way comes.
That backstory is awesome on many levels. We know he is worried about the big bad coming so much that he'll wipe us out just to prevent it and that we have a group called the Enclave of Endlings. I wonder what Tempest thinks about that group since I imagine they had some contact with him after Voss wiped out his planet.
Crush your enemies, drive them before you, and laminate their women! - Guise, Prime Wardens #31
In the far, far future, will Jansa attempt to add Haka to the Enclave of the Endlings?
Maybe Jansa has already made a start? The true source of Haka's immortality is still a mystery isn't it? Could Haka have been offered immortality as he died in the desert, yet unaware of his pact with Jansa when he regained consciousness the following morning?
On another note, consider the timeline that ends with the Final Wasteland, Con's Bunker and Haka of Knowledge. Is this a timeline where Deadline is successful at driving Humanity back to the dark ages, thus avoiding the attentions of Jansa? Or a timeline where both Deadline and Jansa are defeated, Humanity descends into an extinction event, and only Haka is left? Or a timeline where Jansa destroys Humanity but Haka somehow survives the Terminarch's clutches (or has returned to Earth as an Endling in the same way that Deadline left the enclave)?
According to Con, the Final Wasteland came about when Plague Rat's infection got out of control and took out the human population to the extent that all the gribbly monsters came out of hiding and decided to take the planet for themselves. That's why there're Rat Beasts - they're the "descendants" of Plague Rat.
I don't think Jansa is a villain. I think he's a good guy; he doesn't make species extinct, he preserves their memory by saving one of them, and keeps them immortal in the Enclave.
Also, do we know if Jansa is male or female? I keep referring to him as male, but the name seems a bit feminine (it's pronounced YAN-sa Vee DARE-o) so whatever.
I really like Deadline's backstory, though. I can't wait to see Progeny's and Kaargra's. And the last, mystery villain.
McBehrer is the sole winner of this game... And McBehrer, I would step carefully should you find your way down dark alleys. More than one vote said simply, "McBehrer must die."
Deadline is very cool, but we already knew most of this stuff from Adam's discussion of him in the GFBR podcast; about all we actually gained from this update was some art, the name of his species, and mention of the Enclave and Jansa. I'm not complaining really, but I'd much rather have found out what Kaargra's deal is or gotten some info about the fourth villain (Progeny we know almost as much about as Deadline, though he too would have been an improvement, since most of what we know is mechanics and these updates are pretty much all flavor).
I could see Jansa possibly being a bad future villain. Deadline just stole tech from this council and becomes a major threat to Earth. Who's to say that maybe this council isn't part of the reason some of these races are being wiped out or that maybe Jansa doesn't have a more devious reason for gathering those who are last of their race.
Maybe Jansa's intentions are benevolent but at this point anything is possible.

To me, Jansa sounds like a collector of species. It may well be that Deadline's actions, which provoke the heroes to defeat him, may lure Jansa to earth in order to protect the loss of a unique species (Deadline) in his collection. Once there, he may well learn of Tempest and the other multiverse heroes, who are each unique in their own right, and try to collect the entire set :-)
Ahh, but then there will be empty space in that box and how are we going to fill it!?

The Mega Expansion will be a suitcase within which you can store every piece of Sentinels merchandise available including the playmat and T-shirts.
Good ideas are usually just bad ideas a stubborn person eventually fixed.
Don't forget the Mr. Chomps plushie and the fully-functional life-sized all-hyphens-included Omni-Cannon.
It should probably have room for 3 Mr. Chomps.
That's how many Unity has in her deck, right?

Just assume I'm always doing that.

That makes for some rather nasty coffee.

Especially the Hippo.

Basically, I like writing stuff ;)
Jansa is the Big Boss? Deadline turns hero in the last expansion? :D

I may be missing out. Will you point me to this podcast?
I think he is refering to when Christopher was on there, but said Adam instead. Here's Christopher's most recent appearance.

Thanks. That one I've heard. I was curious whether Adam did a podcast as well.
Whoops, sorry. Us immortals tend to get names mixed up after meeting several thousand of each, y'know.

It may well be that Deadline's actions, which provoke the heroes to defeat him, may lure Jansa to earth in order to protect the loss of a unique species (Deadline) in his collection.

A villain update about Kaargra Warfang a few minutes ago.

I think that's actually an environment, but I could be wrong. Think of Kaargra as the environment's Anubis.
No, it's a villain deck, the two environments are different
Christopher really makes it sound like its a villain.
On the Facebook page they already got asked the same thing and confirmed its a villain.
