Hello everyone, I haven't posted here in quite some while 
In recent years I've gotten deeper and deeper into the boardgame hobby and recently started to look for promising kickstarters.
Disclaimer: I realize a LOT of kickstarted boardgames come out as suboptimal, but some are real gems.
Lets start:
I'm currently backing this game: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1502811376/napoleon-saga-waterloo Napoleon Saga: Waterloo
It is a light(ish) 2 player wargame. What caught my eye was the promise to be accessible for "nongamers" and still interesting for veterans. I currently don't have any wargames in my collection and this seems like it could easily be very good. Another draw for me is that I personally enjoy the art style of the cards.
Though to be honest I do realize there are some risks here: the biggest is the creator, even though they have a lot of touch with boardgames (I think they are the owner of a boardgame cafe in france), this is his first design...
Currently I'm eagerly awaiting a video of actual gameplay (the creator hopes they will get it out this week) and the revised version of the rulebook.
