I'm going to be dropping quite a bit in the post-KS pledge when I get paid Thursday... Just need to figure out what to drop the money on.

I'm already pledged at strike team + $80 (probably going towards the core four faction boosters and an extra game mat)

I'll probably do another $100-$150, what do you all think the best value would be for that much add-on wise?

**Alpharius**

I think only your total during the Kickstarter will be counted towards qualifying for the $300, $400 and $500 'bonus levels' though - so, you might want to pledge more now, and have Amazon Payments bug you for the next few days instead of waiting until later...if you're going that high, of course!

**scarletsquig**

For another $100...

... Either 2x buy-one-get-one free faction booster bundle
OR 1x faction booster + zombie bundle/ EU bundle/ extra battlezones.

For another $150...

Assault Team upgrade, hands down. You'd need to pledge during the KS for that, though.

**baritowned**

I wasnt going towards the higher bonus levels, just more add-ons. I definitely want to get the chovar and helfather, maybe some more terrain and two more gaming mats. It also depends on what they reveal in the next 26 hours.

Just realized I also need the Forge Father starter and booster.

**Triszin**

whats this "Assault Team upgrade"?

**scarletsquig**

^ The $290 pledge level.

**primalexile**

If the game turns out to be as good as I am hoping it will I have a feeling I will be merging the Warzone universe with the Deadzone rules.

**Deathwolf**

I asked this question a while ago and someone generously posted a picture of the Praetorian in response. Now that we're a closer to the end I thought I'd see if there was a more definitive response.

Does anyone know how tall the Asterian Cypers are supposed to be? i.e. are they supossed to be slightly taller than an Enforcer?
With that slim build I hope they taller than most normal models with a very gracile feel to them.

I'm in for $260 and I'm trying to figure out how to split up my Add Ons. Than ks in advance for any help!

**scarletsquig**

^There's a scale shot earlier in this thread... somewhere.

**GrimDork**

Yonan- your post is exactly the reason I've thrown twice as much money into this as I was expecting to spend on warpath

**pretre**

Thanks for the reminder on the free starter. Just saved myself $15.

**timetowaste85**

Ended up going $98 after all is said and done: Enforcer starter ($40), Enforcer booster x2 ($50), Blaine. Maybe something else will catch my eye later, but I think this is pretty good for now-I can always add more when they do a survey again before sending stuff out in December. Honestly, having this KS end when the KoW surveys are due back kind of made my decision for me-I don't NEED a new game, but I would have pledged if it hadn't been for the Basilean army from KoW...

**lord_blackfang**

You know, I snagged a $142 early bird on a lark - intending to change to the $285 terrain deal later - but now that I look at it, it's starting to appeal to me. The models that are already sculpted are pretty spiffy and the rules, apart from the d8 dice pool mechanic, look very sensible.

**agnosto**

Now I'm confused. Assault ($290) has "all stretch goals" and Strike has "any stretch goals applicable". Does assault include more extras or is it just unfortunate wording?

**PsychoticStorm**

unfortunate wording

Unfortunate wording I believe; Assault is simply Strike Teamx2 so you get double the bonuses and rewards but if Strike Team doesn't get it, neither does Assault.

**scarletsquig**

^ Assault has exactly twice the contents of Strike, everything is duplicated.

**Yonan**

Looks like just unfortunate wording. Assault is simply two full strikes. What strike gets, assault gets two of. And my suppression gets three of ; p

Edit: So late to the party.

**Alpharius**

2x the rewards, 4x the replies!

**Krinsath**

That's the kind of stretch goals we have at Dakka.

**Rolt**

Is the KS page down for anyone else other than me?

Just increased my pledge to $245 and than the page refuses to load again, strange stuff, the paymeant did go through so its all fine.

**Black Nexus**

it actually says "and stretch goal rewards"

looks like good progress has been made since last i checked in the bikes are really good im hoping for more vehicles.

**Alpharius**

And the Asterians are in!

I just hope the models will match the concept art!

**PanzerTC**

Which will qualify me for Veteran (signed ALT Cover Rulebook), both the $400 – ALT Resin rebel leader and the $500 – ALT Plague Figure. (Edited to be correct.)

Well played Mantic. I H8 U.

**scarletsquig**

^ You need to combine those two separate pledges into one single pledge to qualify for the resins.

One-click Urban battlefield (early bird) is available as an add-on with exactly the same contents at exactly the same price, you do not need to make a separate pledge for it.

See the $95 "Urban Battle" add-on in this pic:

**PanzerTC**

The split is my tracking method. I know the deal - but thanks for the mentioning of it.

If I need to change something - drop switch - the second list is expendable stuff - its just my way of keeping things compartmentalized.

So my math adds up then.

**Taarnak**

Pretty sure it's $300 = Veteran (signed book, and compendium printed version), $400 = alt Reb leader resin, $500 = alt Plague 1st Gen resin.

~Eric

**PanzerTC**

@ Taarnak - you are correct.

I knew there was something I had wrong. Thanks.

Found it on the KS Page:

**PsychoticStorm**

I guess I will do the update

Asterian Faction Booster unlocked; New Stretch Announced!

Beautiful – that’s the Asterian Faction Booster locked in!

There are three ways you can get hold of this bad boy:

2) Get it as part of our Buy any 3 Faction Boosters Get another 1 Free

3) Part of our Buy One Get One Free Booster Bundles!

Add on the Asterian and Forge Father Boosters now and help us get through our goals!!

Up next:

$875,000 – Solo Zombie Campaign

$910,000 – Forge Father Faction Booster

NEW! $925,000 – Freya, Forge Father Smuggler

With a crash the door smashed open and the Rebel trooper almost fell into the bunker. “There’s a… a… ” he gasped between gulps of air.

“Sanders!” barked the sergeant. “Report!”

The panting Rebel snapped to the best impression of attention he could muster, still gasping for air.

“Sorry sarge” he managed between breaths.

“Now lad, take your time” said the sergeant rather more gently. “What did you see then?”

“Private Sanders begs to report an enemy sighting, sir.” “Yes, well that is why we’re here son. Who’d you see?” This simple question seemed to confuse the trooper for a moment.

“A Forge… Father.”

“With the Orx? Hmmm, that’s unusual. Still, mercs turn up all over and you’ve seen them before. What’s got you so spooked about this one Sanders? Is he Forge Guard?”

“Not exactly, sir. He’s a she – a female Forge Father… er… mother... sister…” he trailed off into silence.

After a moment he continued “But they don’t exist.”

If we hit this goal, we will sculpt and tool Freya, a Forge Father Smuggler! This new mercenary will be included free in game pledges of Recon ($100 and Early Bird) and up!

We love the named mercenaries that you have helped introduce to the universe – they’re characterful and full of variety: characters that you can relate too! We think more named characters should be introduced >

**overtyrant**

I guess I can up my pledge to $300 post survey and still qualify for the signed book as it says its only the alt sculpts that is pre survey.
