So, it's been about a year now since GoA's kickstarter was attempted and the progress was 3 models on top of the 1 they made during the kickstarter?

I was really into the kickstarter but when it was cancelled, I ended up putting the funds I had aside for it into Deadzone instead.

It just seemes too little too late now.

The guy on the right was pretty much entirely sculpted during the course of the KS...so, 2 models.

They aren't especially inspiring. Especially given what other companies are producing without half a million dollars of up front investment.

Still interested in seeing where this goes, but I'm pretty much covered as far as grim/pulpy sci-fi (40k) and near future SCI-fi (Infinity), and there are other companies with very robust initial mini offerings that are more likely to fill any holes in my interest.
As has been stated, multi-part plastic kits will be a big move if they can justify it financially.

If it's managed properly there's no reason that you couldn't have new units that reflect the campaign (Guerilla units as a force loses resources etc.) while still legitimately using existing units.

If it's a galaxy spanning conflict you could easily see a force fighting in it's original manner in one sector, while they've had to adapt tactics/ gear/ hire mercenaries in another sector.

This is sort of what Warmachine does, at least as far as releases go, and I think it's a good model. Obviously it's based on written backstory and not really on player input.

Hilariously phallic gun on rulebook cover is hilarious.

The guys expression isn't helping either. Someone's REALLY excited about this game at least!

Had to stare at the mini a bit to work out that she wasn't sticking her tongue out.
Boromites seem on par with the angry mole rat people to me, concept and execution wise.
Glad the game seems to be getting some traction. Hard to believe how badly the crowd funding was bungled given the timing.

I like it. Definitely more warmachine-y than...not that, but it's fun.

Are they just a re-skinned Concord (ruleswise)?
Infantry are neat, the 'totally regular guy' face with the visors up is a little jarring.
I agree that the supportransition weapon is odd, not as nicely designed as the infantry and spotters.
