Some images have shown up of the White Rabbit (freebie at £65K) and Tom Gaunt (freebie at £70K). Only six days to go now, time to start considering this! And there are still a few of those Early Bird discounted pledge levels available (10 of the 23+5, and 2 of the 35+5)!

Concept art for the Bedlam Brotherhood has been dropped, and it's looking very, very good if you ask me! Also, a lot of the stuff that was listed as stretch goals has been unlocked at this point, even stuff that we haven't reached. Most notably, this includes all of the vehicles, but also The Clickers faction is now available, even though we haven't reached £67K (we're very nearly there, though). The KS front page has been updated with a list of all available add-ons. Furthermore, all of the concept art for the original 79 minis has now been revealed; I guess it's really time to sit down, crunch some numbers, and finalize my pledge... Only four days left, time to jump in here people!

We've now hit 80k and unlocked uncle Cthulu (bringing it up to 11 free kickstarter only figures for Reqiuem and above).
And less than a day to go!

Very happy that Uncle Thulu is in!
Such an insane amount of options at this point, artwork is up for the Street Thugs, the Victorian Servants, as well as the Order of the Dragon Thugs now; I'm having a hard time really settling on what to get and finalizing my pledge. Decisions, decisions!

Thats the benefit of metal, you can add in several new models every few thousand to keep the ball rolling

I've had a pretty hard time deciding what to get too and decided to restrict myself to the deals that are too good to turn down, with the intention of picking the other bits up later. So I've got Requiem 23+5, 4x Hansoms, the Fire Engine + Vampire Coach and a set of tokens. That lands me 39 metal figures (11 KS only) and 6 metal/resin vehicles and a PDF copy of the rules for £160. As to what figures to get from the points, that's still up in the air...
I do already have some starter sets (Brotherhood and Vampires) and the hardback book though so I don't need to include them

We've hit the £85k goal and the above figure (now theres 12 free?). Next up is Nemo's Crew and the famous authors:
We're really picking up speed!

We finished on £92,848, so that's all the stated goals met.
The trip to mars will feature in another kickstarter later (potentially), as West Wind don't want to overload themselves and miss the deadline (they've added a colossal amount of figures above the initial plan of 97 already!)

Now comes the boring part of waiting for shipments. WW certainly has a lot of work to do in the next 3 months if they want to be releasing on time.

The supply does not get to make the demands. |
