I am dead excited. Hoping we also hit the brutes before the end! Heading to my girlfriends place now so less internet over the weekend, but I have high hopes!

Yay for the orc hero!!! I do think we're gonna get the brutes now too...

Tre has added a bunch of minis from his back catalogue that were previously missing, including a bunch of "tinies" which are only $4 apiece (goblin heroes, individual Dvergr, some Shirelings). So many options here!

Less than 2000 to the Orc Brutes now! I've pushed my pledge up as far as I think I can afford. If the Wolf Riders make it I may have to push it up again, a little bit, and drop a rank of footmen though. At this stage I only see that happening if one of the DOM pledges is actually going forward though. I'm not experienced with kickstarters!

I'm not seeing an option in the reward selection for adding a solo figure. I want to make a basic pledge and add enough to it to order a back-catalogue hero - as it says shipping costs are handled seperately, I assume I just make this pledge and specify the model i want and pay for shipping later?

Yes, choose your pledge level - then in the box add the cost of the added object to that. (Say a $25 pledge level, and a $7 add-on - pledge $32). And no shipping on this KS (which is a bit weird) but apparently that will be a separate charge later, when your order is ready to ship.

Damn, this KS is turning out to be a real wallet buster for me. There were a bunch of those newly available back catalogue add-ons that were just too awesome to pass on (Bolverk, Christia, Kyrie, Madlenka and Svjanna, I'm thinking). After seeing some painted versions of the Netherbeast and the Infernal horrors, I also needed to squeeze another rank into the budget and rejig my other selections to get these in.

The orc brutes are now actually only $65 away, so basically they're in the bag. Then it's 18 hours left to raise $6,000 to unlock the wolf riders. Can it be done?!

And now the orc brutes are in!!! Very, very nice!!!

Orc Brutes! Well, dang, quite a nice surge this has gotten. Very glad those made it in

10 hours to go. <$5k to unlocking the wolf riders (which would, quite possibly be a boost enough to unlock the wolf rider hero).

It'll be interesting to see how it winds up!

I just opened up a Tio ($180), should be available through "Manage your pledge".

I have actually already put down $25 for the wolf riders. But if we don't get there I'll pick up a second set of Orcs and Dogsbane ($24), which I'll be totally find with as well honestly. It would be really fun for Tre and Red Box to get those wolf riders out there, though, so here's hoping! It's still possibly, but it's going to be tough! Up those pledges if you can!

We're still climbing steadily towards the Wolfriders but it'll be interesting to see if we make it or not- currently 3.5K off.
I can't afford to put any more into this project, so I'm just a spectator now!

I wish I could jump in, but $25 for 4 figures (a rank of the orcs) is just too pricey for me atm, as I'd have to go for one of the lower levels this time... I will be interested in picking them up later, though.

If I wanted all of the orcs, it's still over $6 per figure (2 ranks + the hero)... so, unfortunately I'm just watching this one. I do hope it clears the wolf riders, but also that folks are keeping in mind the size of the mounts if they pledge for those, as I posted the pics earlier.

grefven- It's set to disappear as soon as you drop that pledge level, apparently... that one has been steadily decreasing in number, while the single $155 and $170 pledgers have been sticking it out (as they should, imo).

Only around $2,000 short of the wolf riders now... I'm starting to think we're going to actually make it!

Wolf Riders will unlock at $35,000.00 due to my mis-judgement of the timing of the close out. Right now we are stood at $34,478.00, that means only $522.00 to go to get these guys in! LET"S DO THIS!!!!

The Goblin Wolf Riders have funded

so anybody waiting for that add your $25 (remember they are an add on rather than a rank)

That was a fun ending, I was hoping for a bump that might get us the wolf riders, but wasn't expecting one that threw us almost all the way to $40K! Congrats Tre!

GREAT JOB TRE! We got to the Wolf Riders! Congratulations and I can't wait to see the new models!

Kirasu: Have we fallen so far that we are excited that GW is giving us the opportunity to spend 58$ for JUST the rules? Surprised it's not "Dataslate: Assault Phase"

Since the wolf riders were at 35K (instead of 36K) it would've been nice to have the hero at 39K, but still, a fantastic ending to a very successful campaign. Great job, Tre!

Edit: From the comments, I see at least half a dozen people posting that they'd added in $10 for the wolf rider hero, to help get it in. Since the ending was so close, might be a nice thing to just call "completed"... totally up to Tre, of course, but it'd net a lot of goodwill and will be a popular seller later, too (in fact, I'd be interested in several, I just have to wait and make sure the size is right).

Extremely gutted I missed out on this kickstarter, it looked fantastic and I just kept forgetting to pledge, or putting it off until tomorrow.

Can't wait to get these figures of general release.

Yea, it would be nice if Tre could do the Wolf Rider hero anyway. I have been super busy and I missed how close we got to the hero. I upped my pledge by 50 for a couple to shirts. I would have done more if I had seen how close it got to $40,000.

Still though, it was a nice campaign with some really cool models. I hope that Tre is able to raise enough out of this to get his spin casting equipment.

Afaik, he's not doing equipment, just paying for casting and then paying himself. I really hope this gives him the opportunity to re-stock the store, though, so he's not dependent on kickstarter revenue for the most part.

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

Thanks Guys! I was otu of pocket for the last few hours, long story int he update but I just wanted to pop in here to let you guys knwo if you did not already that the Wolf Rider HEro is in. That was one I REALLY wanted to do anyway so it is as much a treat for me as it is for you guys.

Cheers Y'all it woudl not hav ehappened without you.

Tre'

P.S. I will be pricing the equipment and the metal. Even if I lack the funds to set up the way I need to I CAN go ahead and get started on the set-up and just take it a little at a time. The biggest expense is the facility and that is the hard part but the machine and metal are things I think I CAN do with the money made on this campaign.

I hope you order extra stock of things like the orcs / wolf riders / heroes that are being sculpted for the first time in this campaign, they will be Very popular items in your store... and I'll likely be first in line as soon as I can get someone to take a pic of 'em next to a ruler.

If you're able to get some metal casting equipment from this, that would be great, although it could be worth just using the funds to stock up the store a Lot, and continue to use casting services. Regardless, I'm very happy about the way it turned out

Edit- You might want to post in the main comments section that the wolf rider hero is in, too, as the last comment is asking about it there (or any other backer could post that, too). Awesome that you're unlocking it... what a great ending this campaign had and a very well-rounded amount of unlocked stretches.
