There’s many interesting items to be found on Kickstarter, and here are the coolest ones this week.<\/p>\n

Starvation Cheap: Planetary Warfare for Stars Without Number<\/strong><\/a>
\nWe haven’t tried Stars Without Number yet, but adding new rules for military campaigns sounds pretty awesome.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Starvation Cheap is a military campaign supplement for the free Stars Without Number sci-fi tabletop role-playing game. It’s written to provide the reader with all the tools they need for building a sandbox-style military campaign focused on planetary armies and mercenary legions. Everything from the construction of wars and vital military objectives down to the gritty details of building a battlefield adventure is provided in this 100+ page book.<\/p>\n

While written for Stars Without Number, the great majority of the tools in this book are system-neutral, perfectly usable with the sci-fi game of your choice.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cardboard Clothing: Apparel for the Modern Board Gamer<\/strong><\/a>
\nThis is a neat collection of shirts that reference some of the more popular board games out there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Cardboard Clothing was founded to provide a way for boardgamers to express themselves and their love of the boardgaming hobby.<\/p>\n

All of our designs are created by us and based on modern boardgame staples as well as some of our current favorite games.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let’s Play Dice<\/strong><\/a>
\nThe pips on these dice are different, but it’s supposed to be completely balanced. That’s not the most important thing for me for dice, but they’re pretty awesome looking.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“The challenge was to create a perfectly balanced design for each side: they all have the same volume (mass) removed one every surface, so no side is heavier than others. Our concept was use a shape that can be divided up into 6 parts, with always the same surface occupied: Rectangle and Round shapes offer the most attractive look!”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Carbon Fiber and Luminescent Rings<\/strong><\/a>
\nSo pretty! So glowing! There’s others with inlays that I think are pretty cool looking as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Still active!<\/h4>\n

Blackskull Dice<\/strong><\/a>
\nAt the Mountains of Madness<\/strong><\/a>
