BackstoryWoB Icon Kit ran
initially in 2016, this is one kit a lot of people, including myself, have been waiting for to be ran again. Extension/Compatibility kits are
in right now, so why not give it a go?
GMK WoB is more or less readily available through multiple vendors, but the fully fledged WoB base kits all feature text+icon mods. As some have come to know about me, I live and die by icon mods - this is a must have for me, and I assume many of you as well! BoW has also been added due to the huge surge of available BoW (CR+WS1) alternatives lacking icon mods, such as Minimal. It may also serve well as accent keys.
The kitsWoB:BoW:WoB+Bow combined kit proposalIt features support for most layouts, omitting the bottom row as the available WoB sets have modern compatibility already. Colors are CR and WS1.
Control is also omitted in icon form, as that would require a bottom row that uses icons to make sense, and Control R3 is featured in the aforementioned WoB kits.

FAQ# Adding R5 would be a great way to extend the compatibility for OG sets as well!
There is a running IC for R5 WoB compatibility currently ongoing
here. To me it would make little sense to increase the price of the kit when there's a project running for this already.
# Is the original runner alright with this?
Yes, we've reached out to him and got approval.
