YMMV / Albedo Combat Patrol 164

• And You Thought It Would Fail: No one, not even Sally 4th, the creators of the game, expected the game to be fully funded in Kickstarter in less than 13 hours, even if the funding goal was just 5,000 pounds^note about 6,500 dollars. Keep in mind this is also the most expensive project Sally 4th has done before, as their previous KS didn't went beyond 4,000 pounds and other projects didn't require so much money, some of them as little as 500 at least. At the end of the campaign, the game managed to get ten times the asked amount. This is especially relevant if you consider the whole game is based in a somewhat obscure American Furry Comic, whose author hadn't continued it since 2005, the previous attempt for a RPG, Platinum Catalyst, was rather divisive for the author of the comic, the author himself (Steven A. Gallacci) tried to be out of the spotlight for years, and the comic itself has become into a sad footnote in the comic book industry, in stark contrast with Usagi Yojimbo, the other work that debuted in Albedo when it was previously an Anthology Comic.
• Values Dissonance: In a way, and also overlaps with Separated by a Common Language as well: Despite the game is based in an American comic, the very implementation of it is very British in spirit and concept, as it relies in tropes and concepts from the British military culture, rather than the American one from which the author of Albedo, a former member of the USAF, hails from. A very notorious example is the use of the "Fire Support Team" concept, used mainly by the British military forces, but not by the American ones, at least not in the same concept as used in the U.K. Likewise, many of the military slang used in the game are very British, compared with the American one used in comics and previous games.^note Which is particulary egregious considering the first editions of the previous RPG games were done in Australia, but the game keeps the original American military terminology from the comics out of respect for its origins, outside using some British spellings.
