I'll buy in when an LGS can do it retail... ;-)
Otherwise, its a lot of pretty with little sustainment.
Good point, Dale, totally understand where you're coming from.
I'm about an inch away from backing this just because I like the look of the ships, and I'm getting more and more into spaceship games. From what I saw in the gameplay video tutorials, the way the game plays is very different from anything else I play right now. I have some experience with the ordered activation mechanic from playing Dystopian Legions, and translating that to spaceships seems awfully cool.
Plus, at this point, they've raised so much money that there will be a lot of extras for the backers.
I could see picking this up as an "alternate" game, when I don't want to play Firestorm or Halo (which I consider my two "main" space-themed games). I doubt it will get a large following at the Haven, as DZC never really caught on, even when they were stocking it. But I don't get too wrapped around the axle about that.
