I’ve been hinting and teasing, here and on Facebook and on the blog for a few weeks now, but here’s an official announcement: we will be launching a Kickstarter campaign next month to raise money towards the “Specimen” board game. There will be more details as we hammer them out, but we have some cool things planned. The campaign will launch in mid-August and run to the end of September. Watch this space, or this one or this one!

Specimen photo shoot!
Last weekend we had a nine-hour photo shoot to capture images for the cards in Specimen. We shot over 90 setups and took 3500 pictures. We’ll spend the next few weeks editing them into all the cards and promo materials. Thanks to our behind the scenes crew: Jill Vanc, Jodi Brown and Phil Freeman.
And now, we present the crew of the TCS Brown: Carly Joy, Steve Baldwin, Eric Neal, Eric Van Tassell, Ele Matelan, Alan Vuchichevich and Leena Kurishingal!
