To help you prepare for the launch of the Toughest Girls of the Galaxy (TGG) Kickstarter, we thought that you would like to have you some information about how the pledges and, consequently, about how the armies are going to be structured.

To provide you with maximum flexibility, we have divided the TGG minis in three different groups: Heroines, Troops, and Support (see details below). You will be able to pick and choose your preferred ones, provided that they have been unlocked...

HEROINES

You have already seen several of them in the images we have been sharing with you. They are high-ranking officers, or exceptional soldiers that will spice up your game as well as your painting cabinet.
There are now over 30 heroines planned, from all 3 factions: the Jailbird Division, the Kurganova Shock Troops, the Iron Empire.

And in case you're still wondering what got us started on the Toughest Girls of the Galaxy, check out the Kurganova sisters...

TROOPS

They form the backbone of the army.
There are two types: the Regular Troops and the Heavy Troops.

The Regular Troops come in 2 different boxes of 5 multi-part miniatures, a Troops Box and a Command Group (CG) box, for a total of 10 different miniatures.
All parts are swappable with ball-joint assembly, allowing for infinite customisation.
The Command Group box contains additional parts to transform 3 of the soldiers into one low-ranking officer and two heavy weapons specialists as needed.

The exact same setup applies to the Heavy Troops: 2 boxes of 5 different minis, all different, all with swappable parts, and with additional parts for the CG box.

SUPPORT

This category contains all the other types of specialized troops, like artillery, sniper units, motorcycles, mechas, ...

We know that you care about diversity in your army, so we are making sure that all the sculpts of all three armies are different from one another. There are no duplicates in any of the boxes.

In addition, aside from the snipers that have too complex posing, all troops and support will be multi-parts, and all parts will be swappable with a ball-joint assembly system allowing for infinite customisation.

Q&A

Here are a couple of questions we got on FB, with our answers:

One question or rather a couple of related questions. Will the troops have interchangeable heads or come with the head molded on? Same question for the heroes. If the heads are interchangeable, will you be offering head packs, that way I could have 2 of the same unit but one group with helmets one without, one withe some rambette heads, etc... I really like the iron girls because there is some crossover to use them in fantasy or steam punk games.
→ At the KS launch, the troops and characters will only have one head per sculpt. But as stretch goals are unlocked, we'll add UPGRADE PACKS to BOTH heroines and troops you'll have pledged for. Almost everything in the KS will be eligible for this type of upgrade!

When pledging how open will our choice of items be? For example, Mantic is currently running a Kickstarter that looks awesome, with each faction having a starter set with figures of similar size and equal number in the base starters. I would have backed heavily, but of the two factions I was interested in I had to bid several pledge levels to get the Rebel starter as a reward choice, while the other faction I liked was available as a choice for the lower pledge levels. It felt like I had to pay more to he minis that, I assume, will be of the same cost when they go to retail after the Kickstarter. For your KS, will things be of equal pledge value in the same groupings? If you had a pledge level where you got, say, an infantry squad, would the infantry squad from each faction be available at pledge level X, rather than., say you can have your choice of an infantry squad from one of two factions at dollar value X, but you can only get the infantry squad for the third faction with a pledge of dollar value Y?
→ Well, actually, we do favour as much flexibility as possible, so we are not going the Mantic route. In fact, the complete flexibility of our system is what made Kickstarter ask us to change it. So we've complied, but we were able to maintain a LOT of the initial flexibility in the system.

30 heroes? This one is going to be very spendy.

Well, there's gonna be plenty of them.

AT LEAST 16.66% to 40% DISCOUNTS BEFORE STRETCH GOALS
