I understand how much stuff is in them, but those boxes are still bigger than I thought they'd be...

The tiles are 350mm x 350mm (14"x14") so the box needs to be at least that size if not slightly bigger.

**Breotan**

Bigger = better. Ask any Texan.

**Makaleth**

14x14 inch tiles, didn't realise that

That's very nice

**H.B.M.C.**

Yes it is. Those are very good sized tiles. With two sets you could almost do a 4x4 table.

**Makaleth**

And think what 3!!! Sets could do!!

**H.B.M.C.**

Not quite 4.5x4.5?

**H.B.M.C.**

So we're edging towards November... any news on this thing being shipped yet?

**Breotan**

No word so far on the McVey forums. One guy is talking about his resin Strain but nobody has mentioned any plastics or the game itself. Studio McVey hasn't made any announcements either.

Personally, I'm not expecting any word unti at least the first week of November.

The post-finish date communication on this Kickstarter is just awesome.

They could take example from Reaper.

**BrookM**

Isn't CMON hard at work starting off yet another project right about now?

To my knowledge they still have Confrontation, Dark Age and Wrath of kings which i think we'll probably see on KS within the next 6-8 months, simply because i doubt that CMON would pass up the chance to make an easy $500k-1M from a simple KS campaign.

**Slinky**

It must be said that post-KS comms have been v poor. There was a little more on the McVey forums, but then it dried out.

A shame, really...

**Duncan_Idaho**

What do you expect?

Here is the box on the factory floor, here ist the box on the truck, here is the box in the container?....

Shipping is not the most interesting phase and who wants additional information already gets it from the McVey forum...

Sometimes...

**Slinky**

Well, the last KS update was Sep 9th, showing Iron Lily and Bonecrabs - Nowt since then.

And yes, I have been checking the McVey forum to get extra info, but I'm sure a lot of people would rather just get KS communications just to reassure them that things are still moving, that the original expected dates still stand etc etc.

**BrookM**

Blame CMON, they run the KS side of things. Zombicide has also gotten eerily quiet with Guillotine doing the odd announcement over Facebook instead.

**Pacific**

Weren't there pics a while ago showing ranks of boxes waiting to head off from a warehouse somewhere?

++EDIT++ Yes, it was on the 6th of this month.

I don't think anything has been announced since then however.

Did the initial release blurb just say 'November' rather than a specific date? If so, we could potentially waiting at least another month or so. So, it might not be best to start holding one's breath yet!

Yes, but that was from Studio McVey's forums rather than the KS itself, so you did have to go and find it

**Azazelx**

My understanding is that the McVeys have been moving/just moved across the country.

I'm hoping that they will post updates once they get their internet in properly. They've apparently gone quiet since the Jada incident.

There is actually an update from McVey on their forum after the incident, including a comment to the incident itself

Hey guys - just a quick catch up.

Sorry we have been MIA, but the last few weeks have been difficult. We have been moving house and studio and have been without internet in either for the past four weeks (aaaarghhhhh!) - but we are gradually getting organised again. We are in the new studio now (bare concrete floor and only just got heating on Friday) and have had a temporary connection for a few days, the real one is supposed to be connected on Monday which will make a huge difference to our productivity and communication.

Production is still in full-swing - there have been 'challenges', but here is a quick pic to show where we're at.

More definite news on shipping as soon as we have it.

As for not posting news and pictures of the sculpts because one drew some flack - that's not the case at all. I pulled that thread because it was just going round in circles - and I just don't want that sort of aggressive back and forth on these forums.

So work is continuing full-steam - we're nearing the end of the work that the KS created, and are already well into development on the follow-up. Sedition Wars 'AoS'

cheers!

Yeah, I've seen that pic. It and the attached post was posted over 2 weeks ago now. A friend of mine is pretty active on their forums and had this to say:

The McVeys have more or less gone incommunicado since the Jada fiasco. I'm glad I missed it, but it pretty much destroyed that forum. Success breeds xxxx on your forum, you have to have good moderators who nuke people from orbit before it gets too toxic. I think Reaper did a good job when people tried similar xxxx with the cloud giantess concept art.

I dunno if the silence on this project is deafening or not, but it is a bit irritating...

It seems to be happening with Zombicide too.

There are lots of additional characters that need sculpts for both lines and we haven't seen anything in awhile. It seems a bit like CoolMini wants to not be bothered. It also seems like the McVeys have stuck their heads in the sand. Whether either of these is true or not I do not know, but that is certainly my perception.

I will be hesitant to back anything else that CMoN are involved in. I was burned by New Wave Games back in the day. Hope this doesn't turn out to be a fool me twice situation...

Looking forward to my game.

Disappointed in the level of communication on a relative timeline with that last pallet pic. Not a hard date but a projected timeline or something. I did already front my money so do think I'm deserving of a bit more status updates.
