Board games that hit Kickstarter are often small-scale passion projects, nearly the latest is teachings preggers fitter -- and preggers underneath in overcrowd of crowdfunding. It's a tabletop gutsy self-named Marvel United, featuring dozens of classic Marvel heroes. While its developers may not overcrowd the funds to get Marvel Affiliated off the ground, the platform they're launching it on is still an important percentage of the game. In fact, it was designed from the start to go big on Kickstarter.
