Preview of Duke, with added attachments, plus some other rendered models. Sadly, the screaming head is his, not something he carries.

DAMN GNOMES ALWAYS BRINGING DOWN THE AVERAGE

Grave Things and other subsets of the core will be made available separately. No idea why they're taking so long to do this. And, yeah, I'd like a second set for symmetry.

I thought the Behir was the size of a small dragon?
The D&D Behir miniature is about as tall as a playing card: http://i699.photobucket.com/albums/vv360/eliasboom/Singles/Giants%20of%20Legend/Behir/c1.jpg

Reaper can't load images to KS, but this was posted in the forums. More large Bones!

Well... I found this 2008 TMP thread! : http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=177685
I have the old Metagames Sticks and Stones, but the Valley expansion still needs a mammoth, more cavemen, and some dogs!
Prehistoric Settlement has good TMP reviews, if you like to play cavemen with supply lines, resource building, and other "historical miniatures" strategy. http://www.stevebarbermodels.com/books/423-prehistoricsettlementrulebook.html

Thes Hunter on the Reaper forums broke down the mold costs of the miniatures: http://forum.reapermini.com/index.php?/topic/75913-reaper-bones-4-enthusiasm-and-commentary-thread/&page=402#comment-1606774
Core is at $.70 per mini, and the Gauth dragon comes to about six bucks!

Eh, if you only buy giants, Reaper will have $45 out of your wallet. Not a trivial amount of money.

And this large figure isn't trivial, either! I'm sure it detaches, so you have MORE TERRAIN for your tabletop!



For the necrophiles the number of gravestone pillar toppers in the Core is now *six* per sculpt, not one. The pillars themselves will be available in the Reaper store as part of the Gravestone set.

Another large add-on. Bah. Where's my mammoth and hunting dogs so I can play Sticks and Stones??



And Core subsets (finally) priced!

Definitely glad Reaper's listening to criticisms and making large and terrain Bones. They also released "sensibly dressed" female giants in non-seductive poses (anyone remember the female Storm Giant)?

Anyway, more about the terrain: "Reaper Miniatures 6-time creator less than a minute ago : Did I forget to mention that in that Fantasy Scenics Set, the Ritual Circle, Well of Despair, and Ruined Doorway are designed to fit into the Dragons Don't Share Tower and Stairs?"

DDS was a Bones II release. Some pics from Google. Sorta can see where the fantasy terrain would fit : https://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images;_ylt=A0SO8wuL0KhZ_PAAfIRXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTB0NjZjZzZhBGNvbG8DZ3ExBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNwaXZz?p=dragons+dont%27+share&fr2=piv-web&fr=yset_widemail_chr_win#id=84&iurl=http%3A%2F%2Fi1369.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fag232%2Fjoshuakirk85%2FIMG_1154_zpsc8bcfca6.jpg&action=click

Those room tiles are kind of perfect for my RPG group, and they're cheaper than even buying those DnD Cardstock room tiles... I think I might be back in for those and the terrain.

Remember to save some of your gaming budget for the upcoming ForgePrints AdventureScape game tiles and accessories! :
"all rooms are "early bird unpainted" (this is backers in the first week) $65 and for a sense of sizing between tiles and accessories the alchemy chamber before stretch goals has 108 pieces in it! "
Spoiler:


Also, this month's free w/ $40 purchase Reaper model through their web store (not KS related) : http://www.reapermini.com/

So far, Core, Dreadmere, Tree, Baba's Hut, and both paint sets. That'll still put a dent in the wallet!

And some chicken!

More large things, I presume?

Forgeprint's AdventureScapes will be starting nn the 6th, so, if you're looking for game tiles in addition to the Reaper KS ones, save some money for that KS. The EB pledges will be available the first week, and pledges will be $65 for 80-100 pieces.

Oh, and pirates. Dead ones!

In their previous KS, Reaper "unlocked" additional add-ons after the campaign was over. My guess is that Reaper waited until they received the funds pledged before making further decisions. I understand that 10%+ of funds pledged are not actually collected. So, something like *300K* of monies will not be received by Reaper. Again a guess, but I think once Reaper receives their funds, they will decide whether or not to unlock the rest of the barge.

BTW, I noticed you're in AUS, so, if you're looking for terrain, there's this AUS KS which has free shipping to AUS. Support your local KS! : https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/324657228/dungeon-box-rpg-scenery-by-custom-terrain/

For US backers, ForgePrints will start their AdventureScapes game tiles and accessories. $65 EB for the first week gets you 80-100 pieces. : https://forgeprints.com/blogs/news/adventurescapes

Explanation for AUS: "From time to time, AU Post takes their site down for maintenance. When they do this, our site cannot connect to their servers to retrieve rates, and thus defaults to US rates.
This fixes itself as soon as AU post comes back up. Do not panic. This is certainly not ideal, but it is also not charging any of you actual money at these rates. Just hang on for a few hours and it's be fine."

As for Frostgrave:
* Tree of Despair
* Fantasy terrain, although the gazebo and astrolabe might be too uncommon for Frostgrave.
* Darkmere expansion for soldiers, although the water-based miniatures (eg. fish) and non-combatants wouldn't find use.

BTW, Does Frostgrave *really* have to use winter-based terrain? I skimmed the rules and it looks like you could use them for typical FRPG terrain? TIA!

EDIT: Thanks, Nostradomous! Lookie what's starting up second week in September! : http://www.lead-adventure.de/index.php?topic=103483.0

Thanks -- also, for the Frostgrave players, there's another winter terrain KS that just started. Meanwhile, Archipelago players have 12 hours to pledge for the Forge Prints Adventurescapes game tiles, including a docks set. 120+ pieces for $75!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1613044699/adventurescapes?ref=user_menu

Also meanwhile, Reaper's given the update, including are reminder to fill out that Pledge Manager: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1513061270/reaper-miniatures-bones-4-mr-bones-epic-adventure/posts/2008330

More importantly, I found this on the Reaper forums: "Regarding shipping, the shipping rates are live and fluctuate every time the carriers change their rates. If you had an estimate during the project and have higher rates now, there have been rate increases more than once since the project ended."

fwiw, Found this USPS proposed rate hike in letters and flat rate boxes (which Reaper does not use). Other carriers raise their rates when USPS does, but dunno if they will do this for this specific rate increase. Wouldn't take chances, myself. http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2017/pr17_062.htm
