Gotta say, these late game goals are a bit lame.

Alt figs. That's pretty awesome. 70K, doable in 3 days.

Well if there's gonna be another SDE mini, I might as well bump my pledge by $10.

Where are these new goals? I don't see them updated on the KS site?

They are on the KS homepage not the update there will be 2 more SDEs Kasaro then One Shot probably at $620k or $630k

Well I am excited about battle poses, not excited by SDE, hope we see drake before this ends.

A minor though about battle poses, is it good to have a goal that affects only half the factions?

Agreed - it is a bit odd!

These endgame stretches don't seem likely to cause a last minute surge.

I think they're holding something back still.

And I too really want to see Sophie Drake!

I hope they don't release anything else that I'm tempted to buy....I'm already in too deep

I wonder will the battle poses be included with the miniatures from now on? Or will they be kick-starter only?

I'd be a lot more interested in One-shot (at some point in the future) if she was actually sitting in her damn robot for instance.

I think they'd do well to include a pin-up and a "serious" pose for each Knight.

What's this about alternate poses? My Relic Knights are piloted by twins.

Oh, good call!

This looks interesting. Seems like the minis would be fun to paint and Super Dungeon Explore is really fun. A bit skeptical about the game itself though. The thing that sold me is the Cola plushie looks so adorable.

Hey guys, a question I hope you can answer me:
Me and two of my pals want to back this together and get one faction each. Is it possible to combine the Saviour of the Universe (two factions, one rulebook) award with the Mercenary Charter (one faction) award and combine shipping of them? I would ask them myself, but somehow can't do so from my phone (can't fill in the question field), and I would like to get an answer as soon as possible!

(Edit: and what in the world is that red-white flag? It's certainly not my home country. I don't even recognize it!)

You can combine them, but from what I understand the shipping stays the same, better go for a higher tier and trade back the unwanted stuff, for extras.

The flag is Austria, probably your internet provider or some other proxy uses it, if you want contact dakka to fix you the correct flag.

While on kickstarter the trend continues, SDE related streach goal things slow down, RK related streachgoal, things blaze through.

You can stack pledge levels yes but postage is charged separately on each pledge level there is no combined shipping cost.

So you could select Savior as your pledge level at $100 add postage for $25 then add extra money for an extra Faction for $50 plus $15 postage for a total pledge of $190. You get a choice of 2 special edition minis.

Or if you pledge Double Savior for $190 plus $50 shipping for a total of $240 you can trade back the second rulebook for $35 credit and the extra (4th) faction for $45 credit giving you $80 credit to spend on optional extras (cannot be offset against shipping you must select $80 of optionals – this will be sort after in the survey) and you get a choice of 4 special edition minis included for $50 more. Pledge Double Savior and a total pledge of $240.

Your choice depends if you want extras or just the basic factions

Yeah, The CF, your best bet is to get the Double Saviour and trade in the stuff you don't want. Then you get more useful stuff!

I'm doing the Gotta Get Em All. I really have to say that the calculator is a godsend. Dropping Corsairs (ironically getting their bonus figs tho) but getting all the limited ed. figures. Pity they did not increase the amount of special edition mini's Savior got since they added more, but makes sense to increase stretch goals.

Debating keeping or dropping fiametta and hasami. Already own the prefects in metal (*twitch*) but they are unassembled, so the plastics would be far easier to manage, but I'm sitting at 365 already.

Edit: this is why I shouldn't post past 2am.

Really looking forward to the rest of the goals... and this thing seems to be climbing fast again.

I'm sure this has been asked, but I missed it if it has been... will the non-limited figures continue to be available in injection molded plastic after the kickstarter (like Fiametta, Hasami, & Navarre) or just metal again?

Ohh, I think I might be able to persuade my friends to do a trade-in. What are you allowed to trade? Everything in the Relic Knights catalog?

Edit: also, I checked the relic knights web store. Are the minis there proper examples of the quality the sculpts will be?

For all Information

Edit also boost models are in 40k to combat poses.

And now so am I. I changed from Double Saviour to Gotta Get 'Em All.

After trade-ins my pledge amount went from $350 to... $350 (and I picked up Austrican & Navarre and 1 extra Ltd Ed. - Darkspace Rin if there's no more SDE's)!

You can trade in the rulebooks for $35 credit for each rulebook traded. Savior comes with 1 rulebook, Double savior with 2 and Gotta Get Em All with 3. You can trade in all rulebooks even if that would leave you with none.

Savior comes with 2 starter factions, Double Savior with 4 and Gotta Get Em All with 6. You can trade in a max of 1/2 the factions from a pledge level. 1 faction from Savior level for $50, 1 or 2 factions from Double Savior for $45 per faction traded or 1,2 or 3 factions from Gotta Get Em All for $40 credit per faction - the reason for the lesser amounts at higher pledge levels is due to the discounts the higher pledge levels already have built into the price. If you stack pledge levels trade ins come from the highest pledge level first - still to be confirmed but I got a response form CMON that said err on the side of caution for now.

There are no other trade options.

Great info for the trade in purposes (not worth trading in the starters at GGEA, since it's only 5 bucks more than the books).

Again, curious if these minis will continue to be released in plastic going forward from here? Or is that only for this kickstarter?

Edit: Really need to make sure I include all questions before going back to edit...

Okay, are trading in the faction starters a separate thing from trading in the hardback rulebooks? AKA: can you trade in both, or does the starter include the rulebook?

Oh, sorry, I expressed myself slightly incorrectly. I assume you can't just trade away one faction and one rulebook to get the Double Saviour for 80$ cheaper. So what are the options you can "buy" with these credits? I assume ltd. ed. figures. Anything more?

As far as I know, the trade-ins can be traded for any of the optional purchases. Anything but shipping from what I can tell.

Cola Plushie Toy - $30
Printed version of Manga pdf - $5
Rulebook $35 - added for completeness (why would you trade a book for a book!)

Dave, just to clarify... we can trade in both a rulebook and a starter separately, yes?

So if I'm at GGEA, and I trade in 2 factions and 5 books, that gives me 80+175=275 for extras, right?

Again, hope someone can answer on whether these will continue to be available in injection molded plastic after the kickstarter... I'm assuming yes.

Yes you can trade in both rulebooks and starters for combined credit.

GGEA only has 3 rulebooks not 5 at 2 rulebook trade in (assuming you keep 1) you get $70 and then $80 for 2 factions so $150 in credit to spend on optional extras.

The purpose of the KS is to move from the current expensive metal minis to cheaper (price wise) plastic so the regular stuff - the starters and optional extras (not the SE or Penny Arcade) will be available in plastic going forward the question is whether they will still offer the metal/resin versions once the plastic is available.

Wow, you are really helpful Dave! Thanks a lot!

This is EXACTLY what I needed to know and can change my pledge accordingly. Knowing the optional extras will be available in plastic going forward helps me work out exactly what I want now knowing I can get the rest later.

Thanks DaveC!

The new stretch was met so now tokens are up.

I love this trade in deal as I am able to save $5 from what I wanted AND I get even more stuff... THIS ROCKS!!! Double Savior it is!
