Is this CMoN?
Hoping not, only because I'd like the minis to be in resin at least. Although the WoK stuff is looking pretty good.

It's a board game and don't see why it wouldn't be CMON involved unless they want to break away?

Board game means the same plastic as Zombicide, but maybe with Studio McVey he will sell a few limited edition resins.

The Others is scheduled for Q1 2015 probably March last I heard this is probably after it.
Miniatures are likely to be the same PVC from Dust studios that they are using for The Others.

Those miniatures are going to make this hard to resist! Do we know if CMON are involved at all?

Looks cool, but being from Studio McVey I doubt I'll pledge.

Wow, those first few minis look astounding.

And with Adrian Smith onboard (plus: vikings!) am certainly going to be keeping an eye on this.

So this basically looks like Space Wolves with a wee bit less of the WOLF WOLF WOLF obsession. But with added chainmail bikinis to make up for it.

I'm sooo, sooo sorry.

I would have thought that after Sedition Wars it would be unlikely that McVey, CMON, and Kickstarter would be uttered in the same post again. They're nice minis though.

GW Invented everything ever - didn't you read Merritt's' CHS case testimony?

I would like to see some more of the viking minis. I know its a board game and all but I would like the feeling of vikings pillaging and fighting. What I have seen looks a bit static IMO.

Does anyone know how flammable these minis will be? Might be important later.

And the prospect of them just randomly changing the scale halfway through the project is exciting!

Interesting,

but a bit concerned that they are starting promoting this one so far out

(unless they plan for it to be close after 'The Others' which I think would be a mistake)

The Others was revealed in June for a March launch so 9 months in advance although I think the reveal was early and the launch date has slipped in the mean time. CMoN have a load of KS waiting in the wings including another Rivet Wars as well

Looks like player versus player no coop

Blood Rage is an epic Viking board game of pillaging, fighting and questing for 2-4 Players.
Each player represents a mighty Clan of Vikings, released from the halls of Valhalla, endowed with the gifts of the gods themselves, to pillage the remains of Midgard as it burns during Ragnarok.
By acclaimed game designer Eric M. Lang and renowned artist Adrian Smith, Blood Rage is the new epic board game creation we are proud to present.

Can't wait for the Rivet Wars Western Front starter.

Me to wasn't sure about Rivet Wars but it turned out to be a great little game with great minis. Bring on the Ottomans and Ruska lots of previews on the Facebook page.

So the current timetable seems to be Rum and Bones wrapping up this month, the Others in March(?), maybe Rivet Wars in the summer, this one in the fall possibly?

Barring any other little surprise projects, like SMOG and Dogs of War. I wonder what ever happened to the proposed Sedition Wars sequels? I liked the look of the new Strain models they had previewed at various cons.

Sedition Wars is still in the mix but on the back burner for now. All the miniatures are done some are already tooled basically there's to much invested already not to move forward with it at some point.

The Others and possibly Blood Rage will be released first in the hopes of building up the reputation again and having an association with sucessful game under the belt hence the association with Guillotine Games and Eric Lang. All that going well then Sedition Wars can be revisited most likely in a rebooted state (much more board game focused with preassembled minis ready to play out if the box same material as the others minis) with limited reference to BfA which will remain its own thing (all development on BfA has stopped the drone card is in layout and that is all that remains I know Mike is keen to finish everything however late it might be at this stage)

Huh.

That's actually good to hear.

Beneath all the surrounding drama there's still a decent game to be had there. I actually got my Black Friday set to paint up for a cousin's birthday present. I've always been alright with lopsided games, as long as I have fun losing.

I've developed something of an unhealthy fondness for hacking and slicing those poor restic figures up though. Between Sedition Wars and those early Mantic restic figures, I'm afraid it's starting to become a bit of an addiction.

Might need to go start talking to those Restic Knights... maybe they can help me out.

tamburlaine, have you been playing with the (admittedly many) patches? At least within playtesting the patches, we were getting within at least 2:1 win:loss ratios for any given scenario...

That's too bad about PvP only- I'm most in the market for co-op, though I think it's likely I'll jump in either way...

The Frost Giant is on a 45mm base

Here he is next to a Zombicide figure so the game is in the 28 to 32 mm range

So that Frost Giant will be about the same size as that Zombicide character by the time backers get the game, right?
