Dragon Wars 2 Announced, Kickstarter Campaign Coming

I have very fond memories of playing through the original Dragon Wars from Purgatory through to its final draconic stand-off, and it would no doubt fall somewhere relatively high in a list of my favorite CRPGs of all time, should I ever get around to creating one. And that's why I'm thoroughly excited to see this tweet from original Bard's Tale designer Rebecca "Burger" Heineman announcing plans to team up with Jennell Jaquays and launch a Kickstarter campaign for a Dragon Wars sequel in the near future. Here's a summary of her Twitter posts from earlier today:

Yes, #dragonwars2 will import characters from dragon wars and bards tale I through III

...

Who did these games? This chick! Who is doing the sequel, Dragon Wars 2? This chick!

...

This game will be what made my Bard's Tale trilogy and Dragon Wars great!

This is an instant fund for me, personally.  Too bad I don't have my original Bard's Tale or Dragon Wars characters lying around somewhere for nostalgia's sake.
