My bad on Marie-Claude. Didn't see it the first time.

Best model value (number wise) is Black Diamond x2. 2 bigger-than dreadnaught knights, 2 small tanks, 20 (!) troopers, 2 armored troops (Leopold Magnus), 6 ninja, 2 limited edition models (theres a few that fit the look), and trade in the book for the assault armor and (probable) heavy weapons team.

$100=37 models, 3 of which are simply huge. That's a 40K army right there.

Lol Black Diamond as a counts as 2k Grey Knights bwahahahahaha *facepalm*

Librian x 2 with Warding Staves, Mastery 3, and a bunch of powers ( Leopold Magnus ) (2 Servo skulls: Static)

Callidus, Vidicare, Culexus assains (Suspect 7)

2x 10 man Strike Squad (Black Diamond Corps)
2x Razorback with TL Lascannon (Mini Tank)

2x Dreadknight with Heavy Psycannon (One Shot)
Dreadknight with Nemisis Greatsword (Assault Armor)

I'd die laughing to see that.

What does it say though, when the whole kickstarter would cost you LESS then a standard 40K army?

The fact that you'd use these as "Count as" is bad enough, but this price for the game is really a good deal all around.

After seeing the stuff being played over at You tube, I'm really having a hard time NOT to go back in, tough decision, thats for sure.


Really hard decision making being me these days. Between about three or four other games, This is really shaping into a really good deal.


Check out the Standard price for them, then see what your getting here. MMMMM........ large ....minis...

I'll be picking up doctrine. I'm backed $90 with a split deal with a buddy where I'll be taking a Book.

Using some estimation based on other games/similar models.

Kisa & Scratch, 1 Librarian, 3 Novitiates, and starter stuff: $60-75 (starter set cost I'm assuming)
3 Novitiates: $35 set
Togan and Cecelia: $18
Delphyne & Ekhis: $27
Darkspace Zinenda: $25 Convention model
Fiametta: $13
Hasami: $13
Jakob: $13
Valeria: $13
Veronica: $13
Codifier Brahe & FF9000: $25-30 Convention Mini (if not more)
Total: $245-265 assumed retail cost

I am really glad to see the deals are starting to be a pretty good amount of models. I really love the Relic Knight line (I have Princess Maya #10 or so... gotta find that little ticket thing) and want to support them, but being strapped for cash for a long time I just couldn't get up enough excitement to drop 100$ on it. Now though... yea, gonna be scraping together the cash somehow.

Like many I was having a bit of a hard time understanding what is included in the various packages Soda Pop Miniatures are offering. To help me sort it out I put it in spreadsheet format. Thought I'd share for those also suffering some confusion.

Here they are grouped into Faction Starters, Boosters, Pledge Rewards, and individual models that can be purchased piecemeal: (boosters color-coded by faction)



Note 1: Numbers for Faction Starters and Boosters represent model counts. Example: For the Noh Faction, you get 4 Berzerkers total and not 4 Sets of Berzerkers.

Note 2: Rule Books may be redeemed for $35 towards other Relic Knight merchandise. I've reflected this monetary value at the appropriate pledge levels. Example: At $190 Pledge Level you get 2 Rule Books or redeem them for a total of $70 credit.

Note 3: I've included the next stretch goals for $350k since that target is almost reached.

On that sheet gray out Cecila as she is a part of Togan and Ekhis as he is Delphyne's Cyper.

and the Breaker team is 2 miniatures on 1 base the same as Togan or the Corsair breaching gun so they represent just 1 minion but nice spreadsheet thank you

Done. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not sure if I should adjust for this. The way I laid it out was by model count, not unit count. They share a base yes, but they are two seperate models that could be put on individual bases for other game systems.

Fair enough then in that case the breaching gun is 2 models loader and crew

That completely escaped me. I never noticed the guy behind the breaching gun. Updated accordingly.

Adjusted the listing a bit so it doesn't seem like you get 2 Breaching Guns, and listed the crewman as a companion of sorts to the gun. Let me know if anything's unclear or you see somewhere it could be improved. Thanks.

Also, now counting cyphers as models. They seemed really small and insignificant, but fair is fair.

Thank you for that spreadsheet - excellent, clear and concise - everything we've been looking for!

Yea, thanks for spreadsheet! I wish the KS site itself had those on them

New Artwork for the Cosplay minis - you can see Marie Claude's Cypher now (her mini will include the cypher as she is a Questing Knight)



2 free at Savior 4 at Double Savior and 6 at Gotta Get Em All $10 each after that

Candy and Cola - Chun Li and Ryu (Streetfighter)
Isabeau - Faye Valentine (Cowboy Bebop)
Zineda - Morrigan (Darkstalkers)
Iron Chef - Solid Snake (Metal Gear)
Rin Farrah - Yoko Littner (Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann )
Fiametta - Sailor Scout (Sailor Moon)

If anyone is still wondering who Marie Claude is she is a Canadian Cosplay and Glamour model and designer (she's the one dressed as Rin in the Gencon pictures) she works with Soda Pop on some of their designs. Her mini is of a real person (Marie Claude) cosplaying as a Cerci Speed Circuit Questing Knight - she is the only one that is not a Darkspace version.

Dammit. Those are all awesome. Don't know if I'll be able to kill it to 2

Candy and Cola are a MUST for me (I collect them )
The other one... DARN, hard to tell without the models in front of me... but the bargain hunter in me does jump at the largest model

What models from this KickStarter won't be available at retail?

And what Cosplay models go with what faction again?

(Thanks!)

Shamelessly stolen from the Relic Knight KS Page

All Cosplay Special Edition characters (except Marie-Claude) represent a Darkspace alternate of their normal version. These Darkspace alternates will possess slightly different rules and in most cases are fielded by different factions.

Marie-Claude - Cerci Speed Circuit

Darkspace Candy & Cola - Cerci Speed Circuit
"Racers aren't the only thing that can go fast. My kicks are quicker than the blink of an eye."

Darkspace Iron Chef - Black Diamond
"No matter the mission all I need is my trusty box."

Darkspace Rin Farrah - Noh Empire
"Not all who are enslaved are broken."

Darkspace Fiametta - Shattered Sword
"Whether in this universe or another I will defend you with my life!"

Darkspace Zineda - Doctrine
"Their mastery of Esper is unparallelled and I crave its power"

Darkspace Isabeau - Star Nebula Corsairs
"My motto is shoot them before they shoot you, out here it's survival of the fittest."

After seeing the full color pic above and knowing who everyone is cosplaying....Honestly why do I see myself buying all of these?!!?!?....

They haven't said anything definitive about that. The following is taken from their Kickstarter page:

Soda Pop Miniatures wrote:The Savior, Double Savior, and Gotta Catch Em All pledge levels have 2, 4 and 6 Special Edition Miniatures included free respectively.

We're going to unlock more choices for you as we hit our higher rewards, so you have more to choose from. These are for Kickstarter and conventions only and won't be available for general resale. $10 today will get you any extras you need beyond your allocation of 2, 4 or 6!

Get them now, we expect to sell these at conventions for $15 each, and probably won't make anymore when they're done!

So there's the official response. My guess is that eventually they'll make more (if not right after the Kickstarter). Who doesn't like making money, right?

Hi everyone! I know our Kickstarter has LOTS of different options so we've made this handy info graphic guide of the savior level pledge.

It's really large so click to get the full size graphic.



We're almost to the next unlock. Thanks to everyone who has pledged so far!

SPM_Deke

Any more pictures/details about that battlemat?

Some questions...

1) Is the battlemat new?
2) What size is it?
3) Anyone know how terrain/cover works in this game?

And, thank you terrainguy for that graphic!

Battlemat Eh!!! To Sodapop site!

Awesome. Looking forward to the next stretch goals. I'm loving what I've seen so far from you guys.

Great work!

So is this a good deal or just a way to get access to LTD ED minis?

Early talk was this is just about retail. Seems like there's no real breaks on the "extras".

As promised here are the Relic Knights Preview Rules. The basic rules mechanics are done and set in stone. However, these are not complete and there are many mechanics still absent (like squads) and final editing is not complete. We would love to hear feedback on our forums. Our goal is to use the time between now and the May launch to polish the rules as much as we can.

Preview Rules (25mb)
Esper Deck
Black Diamond Cards
Cerci Speed Circuit Cards
Doctrine Cards
Noh Empire Cards
Shattered Sword Paladins Cards
Star Nebula Corsairs Cards

Thanks!
Deke

Oh and the battlemat is 3x3.

The Beta Rules and cards are now available for download

http://rk.sodapopminiatures.com/

and I've just woken up and they've taken another $20 off me!

EDIT haha SPM Deke just beat me to it thanks

Rules look very clean and simple. 3x3 mean the games is gonna be extreme fast paced.
