Anyone know who/what the Noh model is with the heavy flamer looking thing, and is he in the basic starter faction or an add-on?

And yeah, I think I'm leaning towards double Savior at this point - if I can afford/justify it somehow!

Alpharius - That's the Render 1 included in the starter

Excellent - thank you very much!

I like the model a lot, but couldn't ever see where it was included...

I was confused (as always) by the kickstarter page which has these next boosts which list these at $260k not $300k. Guess they need to modify the image?

Yeah, the images have been wrong pretty much from the start... it might be representative of when they uploaded the image.

The boost images at the top (with the spinning wheel things) are the better way to look at it.

Here's the Star Nebula Corsair Questing Knights artwork still no name though

I love the artwork for that guy... but the bird makes me LOL!

I'm pretty sure his name is Captain Harlock.

Or Captain Herlock.

Or.. Captain feth there goes my money.

Anyone know if these guys will be showing at PAX?

Hard to believe that CMON won't be there, though maybe not, as it is close to Gencon?

And yeah, Captain Harlock/Wildstar/Generic 70's Anime Lead Character Guy is quite nice - it just might make me select the Corsairs, and I wasn't even thinking about them before this!

We will be at PAX!

Iron Chief up, I wonder what will be after the $300k one.
I really hope a few more models.

After the iron chef, it's another boost level. Ironically I rather have the boost than the iron chef.

So would I. But I understand why they are pacing themselves... but seriously hope they have goals up to $500k (I think that's the tops for this one... unless they really up the model count)

Black Diamond + Shattred Sword for me. Done deal there!

Thou, I might up my pledge to get all the LE minis...

Im going with Black Diamond, wife is going Doctrine, shes going nuts for the next boost level since it looks like the boost for Doctrine is the wolf/red riding hood looking pair.

Tempted by this kickstarter, might jump on at the end, liking the look of black diamond and the speed circuit, but the noh is a definite. Want to see what the next boost brings. Might get them all plus the special figures.

I thought I was safe,

but cerci's original 2 Hells Belles, became 3, then another 3 were added by the boosts

and Queen Rollo's on a jetbike is on the way too

My mind changes pretty swiftly then, oops

As I understand it, Soda Pop is in Bellevue, so the only thing limiting an appearance at PAX would be their tolerance for Seattle's horrible downtown parking prices. (Seriously, when I went to PAX in 2009 the parking cost more than the weekend pass.)

I know we are getting the scenic base inserts, but as yet soda pop have not showed us what they look like

so since I spotted these in the News & Rumours thread I thought folks might like an alternative or aditional source of 'dark energy' crystals

@Orlando: do you know if the 3 Hell's Belles are different models?

There are only 2 Hell's Belles minis but it's hoped they will get alternate weapons and the helmeted heads that where designed. I've attached a picture of the Suicide Queen mini from the EX boost.

I have some of those crystals Orlando they are very nice they seem to have forgotten to add the concept sketches for the bases.

Different weapons and different heads are perfect, I am thinking of getting 10 of these (7 so far from this and if I can swap the boost 1 for another 3 I will be so happy) and was a little worried they would look the same.

The queen leading the pack all with helmets would be perfect.

Well, actually I imagine the Suicide Queen to be the only one with a helmet (how ironic) but that is still seriously cool.

Should reach the $300k EX boost in the next few hours - can someone post the details here when they do the update Kickstarter is blocked where I work and I'd really like to see the next update - thanks.

No problem, I'll try to get them up as soon as it happens

bah, i've been holding off on this one, but i think i'm gonna break down and go with the noh empire and shattered sword for savior of the universe.....stupid inner child and its love of anime

I could picture using the Hell's Belles for Infinity models. However I will likely be getting Black Diamond and the Doctrine (wife wants the big kitty model).

A horrible amount of churn this morning, but a new update (thanks to the 2 Tell My Story backers)

Boost EX unlocked! New stretches out... and guest stars!

Zinenda and Spite - Traditionally priestesses of the Hydra God strive to ensure their neutrality as Nozuki’s voice and serve as arbitrators between the eight Noh Dragon Fleets. In accordance to her role as High Priestess, Zineda, continues this custom.



Leopold Magnus & Static - The Synod, the enigmatic council which controls the Galactic Merchants have taken a great interest in the Esper creatures known as cyphers and even greater interest in the constructs of war, the Relics. Leopold is determined to unravel their mysteries and will literally stop at nothing to achieve his ends. His cypher, Static, seems all too willing to help him out in his pursuit, especially when it involves tearing apart enemy relics and severing other cypher’s connections to Esper.



Francis Mallory & Quill - Francis is the oldest surviving Paladin of the Shattered Sword. Upon the manifesting of Sebastian’s cypher, Rook, and eventual discovery of his Relic, Francis nobly stepped aside, giving the title of First to Sebastian. Now unburdened by the role of leadership he is given to taking up obscure quests and battles that normally the order could not spare resources for.



Delphyne & Ekhis - Given the natural tendency for those with cyphers to be drawn into combat one may consider it cruel that Delphyne, a girl of barely eight cycles, would be burdened with such a "gift". Yet it is undeniable that her cypher, Ekhis has taken her safety into account with his physical manifestation. The massive cypher has proven himself more than capable of acting as Delphyne's protector countless times.



Suicide Queen & Rollo - For Suicide Queen, life was easier before her cypher, Rollo appeared. In those days all the leader of the gang, Hells Bells, needed to concern herself with was cracking heads and strong arming racers and pit crews who thought they could zoom through the miles of Cerci Speed Circuit racing track criss-crossing her turf without paying.




Captain Harker & CeaserHarker has plundered and pillaged across space with such success that he could buy a planet and retire in opulent splendor. However, such a life is not for him. For him the lure of the stars is too strong. He thrives on the thrill of the raid and relishes in outwitting the greatest opponents.




And now... for your optional enjoyment. These two officially licensed Penny Arcade characters will only be available during this Kickstarter and any remainder at conventions in 2013!




Picarooning is hard work. The life of adventure as an interstellar corsair breeds a hardy lot, and Wildspace Gabe is no different. Festooned with blasters, his trusty cutlass, and his lucky tatoo - Wildspace has railed against the darkspace that stole from him his homeworld, his family, and everything he has ever known. Tapping into that raging beast, Wildspace has made a name for himself among the spacelanes, pillaging to add to his own horde, and facing the oblivion of the darkspace on his own terms. With Wildspace goes his cypher, The Merch. The dark influence of this creature is ever pushing Wildspace to new heights of plunder, The Merch has demonstrated a bizarre compulsion for collectinghuman torsos, should the pile of booty not be high enough. His shipmates often wonder who works for who.





Codifier Brahe has long ago left the Esper scorched dormitories and hallowed halls of the Doctrine's most elite university to find a way to halt the darkspace. A prefect of unimaginable skill, and a warriors grip of the doctrine's codex, Tycho Brahe, a fully fledged codifier, has set out save the universe by discovering the "omega code". As the universe seems to favor personalities of such magnitude and import, Tycho's cypher was revealed to him in the form of a favorite breakfast making accessory. Now, as a powerful ally and mighty boon for the young wizard, the two set off for adventure, if Brahe could just grasp enough control of the creatures penchant for fruit buggery, magnified in annoyance by newly discovered flora encountered on their many travels.

We haven't updated the graphics yet, but the EX Plus boosts are to increase the value of the optional items for each faction, we'll do that shortly.

so the optional items that looked only just beter than retail will get some love and become must have items (I hope)
