I don't have any preferential treatment as far as feedback goes (which is as it should be, every customer's opinion is of equal value).. so you'd be best off letting them know yourself on the kickstarter page... if you comment in the comments section of the update itself, that tends to be the place that they do always read and often respond in. Or you can send them a message. They're really easy to get in touch with.

Agree that the peacekeepers might be finding their way into a lot of marine armies... quite possibly as a replacement for the especially fugly new centurion models, replace the head with a marine helmet and you're good to go.

I've taken some stills from the video to make it easier to see, really does look pretty badass already, even before the posing has been done:

Love that Peacekeeper, much better than the captain model they already sculpted. Have high hopes for Deadzone.

Hope we get more news on Mars Attacks soon.

I haven't had my invoice yet for extra bits I added in the survey, but my friend has - Does anyone know if they are still working through them, or do I need to contact Mantic?

You received your invoice for the pledge manager add-ons?

I just checked - nothing yet...

I am curious to see just how much I have left to pay!

Yeah...that's going to be fun. Not sure I'd say I'm looking forward to getting a bill, but I suppose this is as close as it gets.

Though at least then I'll be all set until December when mountains of plastic (between this and KD:M) arrive.

Yep and they even calculated it by the cheapest option not the most convenient for them - I ordered 25 Battlezones (yes really ) and the easiest way for them to charge is 12 + 12 + 1 but this is $5 more expensive than 8 + 8 + 8 + 1 but they have taken that into account and charged $5 less - I wasn't going to argue over $5 either way.

Thanks Orlando

One other thing I missed is that Dozer is now classified as a Giant (3 Hex base) still $10 so it looks like Drake could fall into that category as well.

Well I had to add the 3 new MVP's

It's also worth noting that the teraton Dozer MVP



has become a multihex mini like the Alpha Simian etc (but can still be added for $10)

Looks like it for $130 it's basically just the Co-Prosperity Acrylic pitch ($80) and the upgrade set ($50) bundled together.

I'm guessing the 3 new MVP's aren't part of striker and are add-ons to buy separately, right?

I've put up a few questions on the Mantic forums.

1) Dozer, Gabe, The Praetorian, Drake, Syler and Nord are the MVP's which are NOT part of Striker and so will need to be added separately, correct?

2) Blaine will be added as a free gift / teaser for the future Dreadball XTreme to striker (and jack?), correct?

3) What colour is the strike zone sections going to be for the "DreadBall Acrylic Co-prosperity Park Ultimate Upgrade Kit (Arm + Centre-section) + Ultimate Card Deck - $50"

4) There doesn't seem to be options this go round to add in your own 'custom' colours for the acrylic pitches?

5) Just confirming. Dozer = Teraton. Simian = Zees. Barricade = Robots. Spawn = Nameless. Big Mech = Sirens/Trontek?

6) There is no 4th delivery? We'll get all of the 'alternative' sculpts this time round. EG, all 16 players at once for the Season 3 Complete Your Teams Pack.

7) Currently, the survey will not let you add in extra sets of prone markers, despite them not being released yet. Is this right? - I really could use a lot more, having some experience of the game now.

Just out of curiosity, how many prone markers would you say is good enough most of the time? I've not had a chance to do much more than scrimmage against myself, so I'd appreciate the insight. Not that the markers are a must-have, but it'd be something to think about adding for me.

OK I just posted in the comments asking them to have the shoulderpads as a separate piece. Now you guys get on there and back me up!

I'm from the future. The future of space



Okay, this looks really good.

I've been thinking about adding some sort of power armour wearing element to my sci-fi humans. Space Marines won't do as they are both too cartoony and ridiculously small.

A local guy got the enforcers when they first came out and they aren't quite big enough for my purposes. And the hybrid kit assembly and fitting issues the guy had made me wary of ordering some for myself.

I didn't really like the cape the one miniature had. It looked silly and out of place. Though the Enforcer captain metal miniature is very, very nice.

Balance in pick up games? Two people, each with their own goals for the game, design half a board game on their own without knowing the layout of the board and hope it all works out. Good luck with that. The faster you can find like minded individuals who want the same things from the game as you, the better.
