Subject: [Kickstarter] TheGreenAlliance Army - Biped Tanks concepts
I'm so excited to share - we've just got an an approval from KS staff and our campaign will launch on Sept 10 .
For those who don't know what is it all about - we wish to release a complete Orcs&Goblins sci-fi army inspired by US Army WW2 equipment. Here are some items that have been previewed:

I'll be in for a load of the goblins for sure. Maybe some vehicles. Not to fond of the orc, but when the floodgates open I'm sure that my opinion will change.
I wouldn't even bother with 40k. Those would make a great faux US army for a Flintloquesque historical system. We'd just need some Dark Elf Wehrmacht to go against them.
Speaking of which, I really need to get back to converting orc cuirassiers.

As "reasonable" is rather subjective term you'll probably have to check for yourself. Hopefully you'll find the prices ok - one of the reasons of using KS was it would be tricky to make the models affordable otherwise (bulky models , like orcs have rather high production costs).

As we launch the campaign through UK the default currency is GBP - but fear not, we've gone an extra lengths to make USD pledges a breeze, with all pledge levels converted to USD as well

These are really nice and I say that as someone who isn't a huge fan of orks and wasn't to sure of the concept for seeing the photographs. Best of luck

Lots of work ahead . With all visible goals there are over 20 units/vehicles planned (5 as a 10000 basic goal and the rest as stretch ), and that does not take into account 'secrets' .
Any way for you to make some with some Marine Kepies, or Drill Sergeant Hats?

I really dig that halftrack in the little teaser video. If everything's the same quality as the existing MaxMini Orks, I can guarantee without a shadow of a doubt this Kickstarter will get funded out the wazoo!

Might want to duplicate the gobbo and orc models in those first pics on the KS page- at first glance I thought they were units of 5 or 6 rather than 10 (they're a much better deal at 10, of course!).
