One Week Left

Hello again everyone, I hope you don't mind another update from us so soon after the last one. That press coverage really helped with the pledges, you're over a thousand backers now and with one week to go, we're so close to the goal we can almost taste it.
We just wanted to let you know that we love all the discussion about the premise of our game that's been going on in the comment threads across the Internet. It's amazingly rewarding to read everyone's opinions of the time period and the setting that we're using, and see how nuanced and varied everybody's opinions are on the ethical and historical qualities of what we're doing. We will do our very best to ensure that the game itself reflects all those issues: that it accurately reflects the real motivations and actions of the Conquistadores and the Mesoamerican peoples, but at the same time leaves you with as much choice as possible in how to act and behave. We don't want to misrepresent history, but we also want to make a good, engaging, and enjoyable roleplaying game with plenty of freedom of choice.
One note about the changes to the world map: we've made a lot of progress, and the game is already playable again after we ripped the hexes out of the world map and replaced them with pathfinding algorithms, but we still have a lot of polish to add to that part of the game before we're ready to show it off. We can't promise that we'll have something ready before our Kickstarter is finished, but at the very least we'll be sure to post some screenshots of our work-in-progress at the beginning of next week.
Thanks for your support and your interest in the project! One week left! We almost can't wait to send our latest build out to all of you who pledged $30 or more and get your feedback :-)
Cheers!

If so, they should get an attack bonus during night fights :)
