Golden Dragon Games (until now an STL, 3D printing company) have linked up with Wargames Atlantic to make plastics for their Marcher Game.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/goldendragongames/marcher-plastic-united-states-infantry?ref=user_menu

Already funded, the KS is making dieselpunk Space WWII US infantry.

Welcome to this campaign, and by extension, the world of Marcher: Empires at War. The world of Marcher is an alternate history dieselpunk sci-fi setting deeply rooted in the retrofuturistic aesthetics of the early 20th century. So far, Marcher has been an entirely digital game, with models only available as STLs for printing. In this first campaign, we're looking to bring one of our first kits into the world of plastic.

Marcher is a growing game. We have five factions in development right now with a sixth coming at the start of the coming year. Of those, three are playable right now, the United States of America, the Holy Roman Empire, and the New French Republic. Possibly our biggest commitment with Marcher is our pledge to keep the rules available for free, forever. We believe that in order for rules to be fair and balanced over the long term, they need to be divorced from a profit motive. To that end, you can access all of the rules at this link right now.

These are too awesome not to back.

They also have a tribe and a patreon for the 3D files. Looks like a full army for Americans, French and Roman church and just starting on developing the Japanese. I really like the Japanese Crab walking tank/mobile pillbox.

These are very cool.

Had to have a look through their digital catalogue, and there's a lot of cool stuff in there. Particularly fond of the Leman Russ'd Sherman and the Holy Roman airships.

Those look nice.

Related, but a slight tangent, any reviews of the Marcher: Empires at War game?

The little propellors and rudders at the back are kind of adorable

Keeping an eye on this.
No interest in the current kit on offer, but some of the other stuff looks cool. I'd be all over a box of the fancy Roman dudes.

**gunslingerpro**

And the US Heavy Suits are now unlocked. They've also changed to a credits system in their backer kit, so you could pledge for four sprues and get whatever combo of infantry and heavy sprues you want come pledge manager time.

**argonak**

Does anyone know how the rewards are being provided? I'm not seeing it explained.

3 days to go, heavy exo suit previewed.

We are incredibly excited to share the box arts for the first three plastic kits of the USA line for Marcher: Empires at War tabletop war game.
These are the box arts for the USA X19A2 Badger Hardsuits, the US Infantry, and the US Veterans and Command.

Seeing these fully ready to go is making everything feel real. And we know the fans that supported us on our Kickstarter last August are biting at the bit to get their hands on these kits at last!
More updates to come soon!
