Hey Guys we need your help to bring the fantasy to the world of Hymukai!

This is the new Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign for Kensei to create a great set of miniatures inspired in creatures from japanese mythology. We would like to create as many Fantasy Japanese creatures as we can. These miniatures would be used in Kensei Miniature Wargame, but they could also be used in roleplaying games or for artistic painting.

Our friend Adam Ferrando is creating the creature designs for this project, so you can have a new way to look at this fantasy creatures. We are also working in the Kensei rules for every creature or character included in this campaing.

We hope you like this campaign and that you help us reach our goals by sharing it with your friends and choosing one of our Perks.

There are about a 50%,60% and 70% of discount. AND WORLDWIDE SHIPPING FOR FREE!!

There are 4 packs of Magic Creatures the first :



Some perks example




For

I love the character of these sculpts.They really remind me of Onimusha.

Took a look and I must say THOSE PLEDGE LEVELS ARE A STEAL!

As a matter of fact, some calculations show the next:

Taisho -> 195€ , Retailer Price -> 342,90€ ( 50% discount) for a total of 92 miniatures + 2 scenery terrain buildings

Daimyo -> 275€ , Retailer Price -> 454,80€ (more than 60% of discount) for a total of 110 minitures + 4 scenery terrain buildings

And Worlwide shipping FOR FREE.

Some manner of link to the Indiegogo page for this would be nice. I do want me some samurai models.

Yeah that's a great idea !

So... any WHF player can take this indiegogo to make a feudal japanese army, cause the high perks are so crazy (50-60% discount + rewards)

This looks cool I’ve been looking at Kensai for awhile now this might be my excuse to get involved…
A few suggestions for the crowd funder.
Show a few bigger picture of the models… not everyone looking at this knows or will search it out. Show us your models up close.
Let us see the other Yokai concepts… the black silhouette is ok but if the art is done show it… people might be more ready to put money down if they knew they wanted the Death Yokai.
Post a video of game play… let us see how good the game plays… show us PVP action and how the new monsters will fit in…
Why isn’t this on Kickstarter? I think people are scared a bit to buy for indigogo… don’t they charge right away from your card?
I want this to take off… be very cool Japanese fantasy is never addressed in wargaming. Just not sure what I will buy…
1. I have a few questions… on the monsters when you get X2 models are they the exact same? Please please say no…
2. With the Rol pack, is the models show the exact model you’ll get… I know the character models but say ninja or sohei are they the exact models or random from the sets?

Oni looking good, but he needs big tusks! Onis always got big tusks.

Is there a pack of just character models?

must look away... wallet is almost empty...

I see the campaign says the figures will be done in metal, but have some been done in plastic or resin? This figure looks translucent.

You clearly don't know about Japanese oni

Spoiler:

In the past our minis will be in resin, but after talk with Corvus Belli (infinity) and go to they factory for some weeks, we change our idea and all our models are in metal. Corvus belli teach us how to work it!.

We will make this, but we need some time, we are a few persons in this "company"

Only wait a little...
Post a video of game play… let us see how good the game plays… show us PVP action and how the new monsters will fit in…
We have a girld that will be all this. Fanservice? someone thinks that? ;P
Why isn’t this on Kickstarter? I think people are scared a bit to buy for indigogo… don’t they charge right away from your card?
To make a Kickstarter you should be an USA/Uk company, and have an Usa/Uk bank acount, that be 2 of the reasons cause we can´t do this campaing on kickstarter
I want this to take off… be very cool Japanese fantasy is never addressed in wargaming. Just not sure what I will buy…
1. I have a few questions… on the monsters when you get X2 models are they the exact same? Please please say no…
I'm not sure, i will ask that to Javi the owner of all this, cause i'm the guy that test, create character, make the profiles, rules, some parts of history... ;D
2. With the Rol pack, is the models show the exact model you’ll get… I know the character models but say ninja or sohei are they the exact models or random from the sets?
I will ask now this too

And guys some people in the Spanish Forums, tell us about to make exclusive models for the indiegogo.

Well your wish is our command, so we will make, for now... 2 exclusive models.

One of them will be a "bakeneko girl", and the other model will be this lovely guy:


This man will be only available until the 14 of APRIL!!!!

L5R Table top O.o YES PLEASE!

@kensei

I can't see the picture...

I do think a Gameplay video would really help.
reading the rules is cool, seeing the creators play an examle is different.

like this



it might get alot more sales... when i get paid I'm getting a starter set for sure...

The girl of some promotional pictures will do it

Will you be selling the creatures individually?

For example, if I want to buy a number of the shikome?

I'm not really a fan of metal but Corvus Belli is one company that I've been impressed with. Thanks for the reply!

Thanks to you by the question !

We are thinking in that, maybe we will create a perk totally customizable

I pledged for the Taisho pack, but now I'm regretting it just a little, because it apparently doesn't include any of the cool new creatures...

A bit of help, please. I find the pledge levels very confusing.

All I want is the creature and heroes, but not any rank and file. What level do I pledge at?

No, no Uresai Yatsura's Lumn is an alien who looks like an oni

but mybe this is the way to go

These are the creature packs.


These are the Omnyouji packs.


These are the options you have if you only want creatures.

Omnyouji
Omnyouji Set (2 Metal Miniatures) + Extra miniature rewards + Free worldwide shipping cost.

Creature Pack
Choose one Creature pack (7 Metal Miniatures) + Extra miniature rewards + Free worldwide shipping cost.

Fantasy
Creature pack (7 Metal Miniatures) + Omnyouji Set (2 Metal Miniatures) + Extra miniature rewards + Free Worldwide Shipping cost.

Great Omnyouji
2 Creature Packs (14 miniatures) + 2 Omnyouji set (4 miniatures) + Extra Miniature Reward + Free Woldwhide shipping cost.-- If we dont reach enough goals you will recibe the Rol Player Perk.--

Fantasy God
3 Creature Packs (21 miniatures) + 3 Omnyouji Set (6 miniatures) + Extra miniature Rewards + Free Worldwhide Shipping cost.-- If we dont reach enough Goals you will have the Hero Perk.--

If by heroes you mean the officers than the Rol pack is best. It includes 2 of most infantry figures, rather than 5, and a creature and omnyouji pack too.

Rol Player
Rol Set ( 27 Miniatures) + Creature Pack (7 miniatures) + Omnyouji set (2 Miniatures) + Extra miniature rewards + Free woldwhide shipping cost.

I'm not sure about a perk for the Indigogo, but being able to buy the creatures separately may well be useful. I want a number of the shikome to use as 'counts-as' razorwings for my Dark Eldar.

If you want the exclusive hero you only have to take your perk before 14 April!

For one pack of creatures, you can take the creature pack (65€), that gives to you, the criature pack at choose (if we can make all), and all the rewards, so if you take it now, you will have:
Creature pack A + Taisho exsclusive model + Bakeneko girl (that will be soon available) + rewards (if we get 5.000 you will have Date Masamunme, if we get 10.000 you will have date masamune and the new kensei...)
Creature packs ;D!

I would ideally drop my Perk to Hero and get an extra creature pack. Kickstarter allows you to adjust your pledge, but Indiegogo apparently doesn't.

I will talk about your problem with Javier ;D, please if you can send to us a pm by facebook ! ->https://www.facebook.com/OficialKensei

Alright, since I really love oriental miniatures, I'm in at Fantasy God level. Hope there's a pledge manager eventually, since I want all the creature and Omnyouji packs.
