Yeah playing around with that seems to confirm it's the same price for Quarantine and Lockdown

The prices for Lockdown seem to be

UK $15
US $15
EU $15
New Zealand/Australia $30
South America $45
China $45
Japan $45

Adding about $200 in extras bumps the cost as follows

UK - no change
EU +$5
US +$15
South America +$20
New Zealand/Australia +$30

Sounds fantastic to me. Most UK sellers on eBay are charging that kind of money to ship one character blister these days.

Does anyone have a link to the super-useful model tracker spreadhseet someone made for INfestation which told you which models you'd be getting with various pledges and add ons?

Thanks, DaveC!

Lockdown plus extras ended up being $30.

Huh so I only need to pick $40 of addons with my 70 over. Cool, actually, that will make deciding a bit easier... 70 bucks with of FF was too much but 40 is probably just right.

I'm spending a lot less than i would have if they hadn't published the Warpath beta.

Which kinda makes me think GW is on to something with the secrecy and all.

Well no actually.. I budgeted 15 dollars for shipping already so on the outside of needing 15 more I still have at least $55 to spend. I'm just not sure I need 50 total forge fathers... I mean sure if I'm trying to play warpath with them someday but just for painting... dunno.

Of course if I'm looking at this just for painting... should have stopped at lockdown+shipping lol.

Ehh screw it, original plan will remain: 40 more steel warriors, 2 more jetbikes, and after the shipping adjustment I'll use the last 5 bucks for one of the accessory sprues I guess.

I think I'm more excited about having it done than I am about the stuff right now

What a difference a week makes. Due to the exchange rate plummeting after the Greek No vote the actual cost to my additional pledge went up nearly $40.

Sadly for me, the dollar/yen exchange rate hasn't changed at all...

In case people are wondering how shipping pricing is being calculated, I have a small case study:

Lockdown + 20 Steel Warriors = $15 USA shipping

Lockdown + 40 Steel Warriors = $30 USA shipping

(I went with 20.)

Are you saying the exchange rate between $AUS and $US changed because of Greece in one week? Cause the EUR only dropped by 1% since the vote.

@Vermonter, I almost ordered less stuff myself but I didn't want to spend a lot of time trying to figure out a batch of addons that could eat my credit AND fit in the smaller shipping budget. Time is money, as they say...

Had I not already pre-pledged the extra, I most likely wouldn't have added the extra forge fathers only to incur the extra shipping

The AUS dropped nearly 3% in one day after the vote and was dropping steadily the week before. Doesn't seem too long agoa it was $1,10 AU to every $1 US.

Well, I turned in the PM today. 350 eur spent on Infestation altogether. Lock Down + another two $35 terrain sets, some extra Enforcers and a few odds and ends.

I hope the $20 for 20 deals will appear again in the Warpath KS, I'd love to get 3 packs of everything but I just couldn't this month.

Yeah, I really liked the 20/20 deal, though I didn't feel like I wanted a veermyn army or an overwhelming number of pathfinders. When warpath comes around though, may be inclined to pick up 20/20 for a lot of the basic infantry units for the various factions, should they manage to impress me that is... double or even steel warrior grade triple kits would go a long way towards that.

Well, last chance to get in on the PM today guys!

I ended up getting 5 industrial accessory sprues, 2 dreadball scenery sprues and 5 Pathfinders. Won't ever need more than that for Deadzone and am i right in assuming they are single pose?

Pathfinders? No way, they're hard plastic sprues (probably a few extra bits, but not as many as GW sprues tend to have). Some of the arms/legs will have specific mated pairs you will have to use unless you want to cut/sculpt, but overall you should have some options and poseability.

I've got to stay away, I added crap on top of lockdown... silly me... I *definitely* do NOT need to order more. Gotta leave some room on the shelf for Warpath

BTW, in case anyone is wondering if the Deadzone rules are going to be made better, I can confirm that the new edition is a major overhaul that keeps the core of the previous gameplay intact while cutting down on unnecessary complexity.

Basically everything that I had a problem with in the old rules (pretty much identical to what the majority opinion is) has been fixed.

It is everything that v1 of the rules should have been. And this time there is a rules committee (with yours truly on it) to make sure the factions are properly balanced on-release.

Cool. Thanks for that update I do like the basic mechanics for DZ so it will be interesting to see what streamlining has happened.

Sounds great! I do enjoy playing DZ, so if it's much the same with the rough edges polished off, that should be super

Will the new rules still be compatible with existing cards, or will there be new ones that replaced the existing decks?

Are there any plans for the new core rules to be free like KoW?

Sounds good, ss. Will be interesting to see if there's any convergent evolution between DZ2 and my house rules.

Rebs are playable? *Gasps*

I always thought the Rebs themselves were fine, but their mission deck was WAY too difficult.

Hmm, how to answer while sticking to an NDA...

1. If one were to make an educated guess, the fate of cards in future editions of the game can probably be ascertained by an evaluation of the items for sale (or lack thereof) in the Deadzone Infestation Kickstarter. Given their current integration into the game and the additional tactical choice they generate (with an element of randomness), it would also be remiss of the development team to not include a superior replacement for them should they not be making an appearance.
2. I don't actually know at the moment! The previous version had the demo game as a free download, so I'd imagine there will at least be that.

There are already public rumours floating around about the first question (I heard them several months ago, along with a bunch of not-currently-accurate stuff like the grid being removed), so I don't mind adding some extra hints.

I am also keen to start playing with my Rebs again, they're the only faction where I have every figure fully painted. 12 losses and 2 wins later, I finally gave up on them.
