$205 to get all 7 of the minis seems kind of steep though. I may just narrow it down to one and go with the cheaper option, or do $145 for 4 of them.

$350 for the warchest. Wowzers!


You can get all 7 for $160 with the game, or $141 without the game. You just miss out on a lot of the digital stuff.
Nope, can't buy minis without the core game, so $160 minimum. Otherwise, I'd have bought just the minis. (Anyone want the game but not the minis? I'd be willing to kick in towards the game's price)

Id love to get in on this but i really only want the game and one mini. I just cant justify 25$ shipping for one miniaturr. I hope PP ends up fixing this because Id really like to support this

You can always pledge for the game now, and the mini when its released in its non-exclusive form.

Can't seem to find it but what material are the LE models made from? If it's actual resin I could easily see grabbing a few just for painting, (really like the Ret one). If it's metal I'm not so sure but it's still a possibility.

Metal, most likely. They haven't done any LE stuff in resin before, doubt they'd start now.

Also, holy crap Sturgis. He's like a human pinball!

They only do resin for large models, and have only done plastic for large production run stuff: I'd be very surprised if they weren't metal.

I'm not completely sure, but it seems from a cursory reading that you are only allowed to get 1 of each of the LEs. ("Quantities are limited to one of each character per backer.")

Currently in for the $205 level, will probably drop it down to the $20 level plus all the figures and the Dual set for Sturgis.

You save yourself $35 if you go that route opposed to pledging at the $205 level.

It wouldn't surprise me if a chunk of the money for each mini goes to fund the game. So $10 for mini and $10 to the game development you could say. They are betting a lot of people would only go in on figures and this is the best way to get additional funds for development. Tap into the player base that would have skipped this.

Yeah, I decided to lower it. I really don't care about all the extra e-bonii or Beta access. I may drop it $20 less, not really sure I care about the Ret Journeyman.

If they do end up adding Hordes sculpts, I'll likely just add onto another local's pledge for a trollbloods one.

I don't think there's been any indication that they will, though.

Probably not. Unless it get high enough to have them start adding in Hordes Factions(they mention adding new Factions as later Stretch Goals).

If this works out, they will most likely have a separate campaign for Hordes.

Separate Campaigns, you mean. Each faction is eventually getting a separate campaign as DLC.

I think he meant a seperate kickstarter campaign.

I'm only interested in the miniatures. So I could conceivably pledge at $1 and add on all the sculpts, but where does it mention shipping costs on the Kickstarter page?

well, that could be a while, since they have listed in at the bottom of the kickstarter page that they won't run another kickstarter until this one is finished and delivered

on a side note- i jumped in at the game plus 1 figure for now, and i might upgrade later for hte other couple figures i'm interested in

Add-ons are available to any backer at the $20 New Recruit level or higher.

Yeah, this got me too. I was only interested in the pieces for my faction (2 Cygnar, 1 Merc) and thought I was going to get out of it at $61.00, but looks like I'm in at $80.00 and get the game to boot. Really wish those dice were a regular addon, I'm a sucker for dice but not at the $205 price tag to get them.

Yeah, I'd be in for at least a dozen dice if they were their own add-on. Hopefully we see that happen.
