Too expensive for my budget. Looks good though.

Thanks for posting here :-) As you saw I've followed your feedbacks - holographic foil on back, no stretch goal. ;-)
Now fingers crossed that will go well hehe.

That took a whole hour to fund. What a failure.... :twisted:

Congrats on another great success, Gio! Looking forward to this one

Congrats, this one wasn't easy in my opinion :)

The hint is "something very strong guarding the door" :P
Now that the deck is live on KS, any chance of giving us the clues, the answers and the rewards?

Hehe yes, it was not a surprise :uggrin:
I just decided to unlock it on Kickstarter (but it will still be available later on Backerkit, for all backers).

One of the few occasions where a cover of an iconic song holds its own and enhances the original rather than diminishing it.

(I'm not saying it's better than Flack's, but rather, the fact that it is as good as hers actually elevates both, imho.)

Fun fact: the original song was co-written by a woman who was describing Don McLean's song, "Empty Chairs" (which is also brilliant, imho). The original version didn't chart, but Roberta Flack's cover was the first iconic rendition of it, winning two Grammys for it. Fugees won a Grammy, as well, for their version twenty-three years later. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_M ... h_His_Song

Thanks to Gio's decision for a flash sale on his website and the discount code for the KS backers for Apoteosi, I am hard pressed if I should go for the Black Monolith or not. Such a great deck but my wallet is already crying after backing Apoteosi and the Heaven's gift. Currently I only see 4 left in stock for the Black Monoliths!

I know right! I decided to go for it as I already have the white one and been thinking about the black one for a long time. There were 5 left before I ordered. :) Also bought Italia Radiosa and Segreta. Not going to get Italia Divina deck as they have the same cards as Magica, which I already have.

Thank you guys! Both for the incredible support on Apoteosi campaign, and the sales later.

Black Monolith is selling like crazy, probably because it's "related" to Apoteosi for the Holographic foil.
I have probably more than 4, but I am being careful since I don't have an updated inventory and Black Monolith is included into the "Creation Monsterbox".

*David Attenborough voice* And now with Apoteosi's campaign arriving at a conclusion and Apocalisse's fulfillment - after many months of waiting - completed; attention turns to Pantheon 2 and its imminent removal from the fulfillment centre and into greedy patrons' hands.

I just got the first decks from Cartamundi (just cards) and I am very happy :-)

I'm posting some pictures, I hope you'll like them despite the bad "winter" light.

Full Deck Scan: https://www.flickr.com/photos/167981955 ... 8559170463

Personal Note: The artwork is (as usual) absolutely phenomenal. The back foiling is very dark and subtle. Im not whole unopposed to this, esp. with the backstory of the deck.
