Right now game dev is just my formulas for cards, xp, etc.  I have 100 armies with 10 rarrity levels (1000 cards) and the last time I built the game it only took a month or so to build the Alpha version.  As for rapid development, I am not sure that the need is there as the game is designed to take years to achieve max level.  Fundraising... The game will has guild/clan and friend referral bonus so advertising will be mostly organic.  More likely, the web version would be the prototype and we could raise fund to do an actual android/ios version and hire programmers to develop that as I am not an apk/ios dev. 

What are your thoughts on it?
