Hi!

Some of you may remember when on March 2018 we launched our Gravetides Kickstarter campaign (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/weirdocollector/gravetides-an-undead-fleet-for-naval-fantasy-warga) for an undead fleet to be used with any naval fantasy wargaming rule set (and a venerable one in particular).



After its successful founding we are now trying to invest this positive result to further develop our project, creating new fantasy fleets and finalizing a first draft of the wargaming rules that accompanies them.

With the final target to launch a new Kickstarter in the coming year, we have put online our Gravetides blog as both a development diary to publish descriptions, sketches and other stuff like background and narratives on new warships and fleets, and to disclose snippets of our naval wargaming rules with the intention of both spreading our work and gathering comments and hints from other hobbyists out there.

If you are interested in what we have done, in what we are trying to do or are just curious aim your browser to https://www.gravetides.com and let us know what you think!

Thank you!

Good stuff - I have to confess I missed this Kickstarter but would have been interested given I am a big fan of Man O' War (which I am assuming is the venerable naval fantasy rule set that you obliquely refer to).

Quick questions - are you planning to retail these minis now the Kickstarter is over? Where can I pick them up from? Any intention of creating some rules so they can slot seamlessly into Man O' War?

Wow, this checks all the boxes for me! A manageably sized project, where you had control over every phase, and beat your delivery timeline

I love the sculpts, and I think a lot of folks would be interested in a "2 player set" if you sculpt a second fleet. Ideally with a copy of the rules somehow, although I'm not sure how you could do that.

I'm looking forward to seeing you progress, and would like to back your next project if it looks as good as this one! Take your time and get it right, but be sure to let us know when you're ready

I will keep an eye on this - love me some fantasy ship battles! Plus, the terrain is easy.
