What current KS should i pop my cherry on?

AFAIAC none of them. I've backed quite the number of KS but at the moment nothing tickles my fancy. The next thing I throw any money at will probably be the new edition of Delta Green or Colonial Lovecraft Country for CoC.

If you like Kevin Crawford / Sine Nomine's work (Stars Without Number, Silent Legions, etc), then I highly recommend checking out his future Kickstarters. He uses KS very smartly. You get the beta PDF as soon as you pledge so if you read it and hate it, you can always bail out. Also, his betas are more complete and better edited than many publisher's final drafts. Effectively, he is using KS to pay for artwork, get pre-orders and drum up attention.

If you love Conan and boardgames, you can still jump into the Conan Boardgame kickstarter. The sheer number of minis alone make the price worth it, but the game itself looks like a badass RPG/board/minis hybrid. Remember the Heroquest boardgame? Think that highly evolved and expanded.

It's only available until 9/23 or 9/25 I think.

Footsoldiers: might be one for a starter as it is dirt cheap at 10$ Low fantasy setting. Looks like it is PDF/PNP only.

The Cloud Dungeon: Also dirt cheap at 3$ for the PNP version, 15$ for the print. Looks cute.

Legacy's Wake: 5e module. Little dubious on anything labled "adventure path". 40$ for the basic hardcover so not necessarily a good first foray if it caves.

Lovecraftesque: GM-less game. Storytelling focused. 31$ for the print version 15$ for the PDF. If you dont like these sorts of games then pass.

I would say this one:
Infinity; RPG
Based on the miniature game of the same name.

If you like Call of Cthulhu, then take a look at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/golden-goblin-press/tales-of-the-caribbean . Golden Goblin Press has done a number of previous kickstarters and delivered well.  I'm backing for the pdf.

If you like funky dice, take a look at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2025825791/death-by-dietm-dice-of-treasure-and-loot .  I haven't backed him before, but looking at previous kickstarters he's delivered in the past.  I'm backing at the "Greed+5" level.

I would back Phil McGregor's Kickstarter

Simply because the guy has been designing games since the 1970s, having worked on Space Opera

With some interest, I'm watching "The Others: 7 Sins" which is basically a boardgame riff on Hellboy/BPRD.

CMON has a pretty good track record of successful KS's, though they almost always take longer than projected to deliver.

It still has 17 days to go.

Thing is that many projects from CMON, you can wait until the whole drive is over, see what's offered, and, more likely than not, you'll have an opportunity to get exactly the same deals as a "late backer."

I guess you no like, Powered by 2d20?

Seconding the Sine Nomine recommendation, even if you don't play Stars Without Number (neither do I, actually); his books are delivered on time and chock full of good content. Starvation Cheap had me at the title.

I hadn't heard of that one, and it sounds like he's got most of the work already done - stretch goals are intended to provide more art, which is a nice way to handle this.  I'm not sold on the genre, mind, but that sounds like a kickstarter that's very unlikely to fail.

If I were to do that, I'd probably pledge a dollar, so that at least I'd have full access to the kickstarter and could post comments and read all updates. (Not that I remember CMON doing a lot of backer-only updates.)  I did something similar when I got in on a bulk shipment of a boardgame kickstarter.

I've got my eye on this project, mostly seeing how crazy the number of minis grow to before I back.

Id suggest a few FF style gamebooks but all the current ones have ended, including a re-release of the original Way of the Tiger series as hardbacks.

Westward Dystopia I missed out on, and unfortunately for me The Frankenstein Wars was app only. Megara has been cranking out the gamebooks lately. Another Fabled Lands entry and the aformentioned Way of the Tiger among others.

It seems like Modiphius was formed solely for trying to make the world record for the number of licensed RPGs destroyed by a single game designer.
