The Kickstarter campaign for the turn-based combat game Warmachine: Tactics easily surpassed its goal of raising $550,000.

As of Saturday morning, Bellevue, Wash.-based Privateer Press Interactive has raised $693,631 from 7,209 backers. It still has 27 days to go in a 30-day crowdfunding campaign.

It’s the sort of title that Kickstarter makes possible.
