Hey guys,

@Thraxas - Thanks, and YES we are really looking forward to SALUTE - as well as the store, we will also be running not one but two AFTERLIFE demo games all day, see you there!

@Azazelx - Cheers - I pretty much agree, I constantly strive to improve both the design and production quality of our output. As Haigus kindly answered for me - all the stuff we are previewing at the moment is for fulfilment of last years KS project, and will be available in the retail store in stages over the coming year, though at this stage I cant give much more information than that! Glad you are liking the minis


While I am busy with KS stuff, Our head of manufacturing Adam (with some help from Chaz) made some awesome new "Hyper-City Industrial" base toppers, which are available for pre order now - shipping in a couple of weeks.

Here are some examples I painted up.



Click HERE for product page with lots more photos and details

They are available in 25mm, 30mm and 40mm sizes, and can also be mixed and matched up to decorate larger base sizes.

Ooh, those are nice! I'm not especially interested in Afterlife as a game, but those base toppers look like they'll be a unique addition to my models.

Is the "Collect From Salute" option live on the website yet? I need to figure out how many 40mm toppers my Leviathan base will need...

@RiTides - Thanks, printing with our own machines is a real pain, but yes we are getting excellent quality, and will continue not to compromise on that!

Regarding the War Drones, we have the Pose A pack. If you pledged for 6 and nothing else, we can ship 3x Pose A tommorow, but you will probably want to wait for Pose B pack, which will have two new leg/body poses, and a commander upgrade head and arm. Those will take a little longer, but will ship ahead of a lot of the main reward waves.

Well dang, that's tempting but I'll wait for the pose B options so I can get my six in a good mix!

@Charax -

Nope its not live yet, we will sort that out asap! Not long till the show now!

We will not be taking all our "bits" products this year, but will have plenty of the new Bases so you can check them out "in the flesh".

@RiTides- The Extra Drones are first on the Add-Ons list, as soon as all the stuff from Shard Recon and Strike are completed. I may actually do them before all of Shard Strike is completed, given how popular they proved!


New miniatures - Republic Commando Snipers with Rail Rifles.

This is the pair included in most pledges, there will be another 3 poses + a spotter drone to round out the squad for those who purchased the Add-On (or for retail eventually).

Will you be doing any 'pre-order for collection at Salute' deals on those bases (or anything else for that matter)?

While the robots for the Unity Council are pretty damn cool, I still think the Republic figures are the clear standouts in this assortment. The Commandos look amazing.

The current prices for the new bases will remain in place until at least the show. (though we don't plan to raise them all that much, depends on sales)

We may do some "combi-deals" for the AFTERLIFE game blisters, but we have not decided anything for definite yet, We will announce any deals a few weeks before the show.


@Jehan Reznor- A bit Macabre, but yes actually I had thought of that, its on the "fit in when I have some spare design time" list. I wouldnt put them on sprues, but would do a "battlefield casualties" set with half a dozen figures in various states of disintegration.

@Barzam - thanks very much! I am really looking forward to getting the Pulse Mechs and Commandos printed and cast!

Good well-sculpted dead people would be a great scenery bit - I'd definitely buy some for the afterlife terrain I plan to make.

The commando snipers look amazing! I couldn't be happier that I backed this. Keep up the good work!

Hey Everyone,

We have a great new product announcement today, available soon - the A-Pad!



This new micro-electronic device will revolutionise your gaming, giving your miniatures access to real time strategic data.

The aPad is manufactured in premium titanium and glass and contains a micro 8-core processor, measuring in at just 3.5mm tall, perfect for 28mm scale infantry who need to share photos of their fallen enemies with their friends in other warzones.

"I love my new aPad , it's made it so easy to hack the Unity Councils mainframe, and it's also light and stylish" - Lena Petrova, Republic hacking expert.

--------

*ahem*

Some new previews and re-release of the Missile Launchers for the Republic faction, now supplied as two part figures for easier customisation.







Unity Council Support weapon platform and Unity Guard, both available at retail later this year.


SALUTE 2015 - Saturday April 25th

We will be at the show this year with our store front, but we are not bringing all our bits range this year, just a selection of the most popular products.

If you want to collect a selection of bits on the day, please place an order through the website and use the "collect at Salute" option on checkout, you will also need to pay for the order on the day. This means we can prepare your collection order on the day and bring it along.

AFTERLIFE DEMO GAMES -

This year we will have a huge gaming table set up and we will be running demo games all day, so you can get a chance to try out the new AFTERLIFE game!

The Picatinny rail on the Unity Guard shotguns, do those match the rails found on your other designs and therefore can your range of scopes and other accessories in the Armoury be used on them?

You contact the Apad Help On Line Employee (AHOLE) for short. They don't speak you native language, mispronounce their name, and will be extremely polite while still conveying that they could care less about your first world problem.

... What? So I can't make an order, pay for it online then pick it up at Salute without digging into my on-the-day cash?

If that's the case not only am I not making an order, I'm not visiting your stall at all for the first time in years (since you shared a booth with zinge)

Different options I guess, but it does seem odd. It actually makes me much more likely to pre-order, coupled with the fact that they won't have the bits stuff otherwise. I hate having to pay for my order in advance, I'd much rather be able to pay on the day - otherwise, why bother pre-ordering to collect, especially if it's regular stock items and the postage is reasonable anyway? It's not like they're offering a pre-order discount like other vendors, who I will be having to preorder from to benefit.

The guys at Anvil are working their arses off trying to get the kickstarter models cast and packed for the backers who paid for their gear back n October. You know how small a team they are so get some perspective and quit complaining, it's not like you can't get what you want one way or another.

If you pay before the day and anvil can't make it due to transport of health issues or stuff gets lost/stolen pn the day etc then they will have to find a way to get it to you anyway

so either losing out on postage or having to chase you for it or do a refund

paying on the day means if anything goes wrong and there are no bits for you you just don't pay, far easier
