Some interesting stuff here from SJG about the OGRE sponsor sheets.

Basically, one of the Kickstarter sponsorship levels was the right to make and sell your own specialized sheets of Ogres (often with scenarios added).  You would think that these would all be processed by the sponsors right away, because that level of sponsorship was not cheap.  But not quite 100%…

…an update on the status of the various sponsored counter sheets created by third parties in support of the new Ogre edition. The biggest lesson we learned from those was: it’s risky. Some of the counter-sheet sponsors performed their obligations flawlessly. Some had problems but are working through them. Some seem to have fallen off the map.

The problem, with 20-20 hindsight, is that it’s possible to have enough money and enthusiasm to sponsor a counter sheet, and even take orders, and still not have the ability to follow through.

Something to keep in mind, if you were planning a crowdsourced project in the near future.
