Yeah, as an infantry-only pledger I'm glad he included them

Yes, had he only done the crusaders I'd be in for probably a third of what he's getting at the moment. The bulk of my pledge at the moment is for infantry, though that might change at the 90k mark.

Well, that rather presupposes that there wouldn't be a second, Infantry-only kickstarter. That way you'd be able to get your Command Squad option at $20k of infantry-specific donations rather than 105k of infantry-and-everything-else donations. I know a lot of people are only interested in/buying Infantry, that's why different projects make sense - infantry get funded faster, have stretch goals at lower price points and you don't have to wait for the "big stuff" to get funded before the "little stuff" gets a shot.

There's no chance the structure will change now, just pointing out there's a lot of logic and advantages behind multiple, focused kickstarters Vs one big "Fund our whole range of stuff" project

Alright I'm going ahead and pledging for the $39 20 man deal. I don't know if I can fund it 100% yet, but I'm pretty sure i can pinch pennies and make it happen. At the very least, it bumps it up and gets more people interested in pledging. I'll only withdraw if it's an emergency.

I'd really like to see this succeed. This looks like it's going to be a great company down the line and if he can get some momentum going, I hope we'll see more great things from him. I may not be using his minis for his game at the moment, but I'll always have the option to down the road if it ever gets popular around here! :thumbsup!:

Best of luck man, thanks for the awesome minis!

The new page is much better. But still lacks the picture of a certain apc we are all looking forward to.

And he opened up all arm options!

I'm extremely pleased with this kickstarter. Really looking forward to getting my hands on this stuff

Quick thoughts on new layout

1) He should be plugging the free delivery in the USA at the top of the page.

2) He should put the scale/painted videos/pictures back up.

Anyone care to inform him?

He checks this thread regularly, he'll probably see this by tomorrow.

I do think the new layout is easier to navigate/understand.

Did anyone notice that you will now be able to buy additional Shadokesh Handler + Feral at $4 a set, up to 5 total with the free set?

Gonna get me some of those to paint up and ready for an eventual Shadokesh faction.

Whoa, I did Not notice that. Sweet!

Comments on the KS mentioned the 15mm arms will be $10 bucks...me likely me likely alot

$10? That sounds good.

Now we need the final price on the Heavy Trooper boxes.

Broke 85K. Upped my pledge to get that sweet sweet Mauler arm.

Come on 90K! I need a Mortis too!

Hi everyone!

Just a summary of some changes today.

The front page was becoming a scroll fest.
I have begun consolidating items by group, the only true change to the project was getting rid of the stretch goals for the rest of the 28mm weapons, and they can all be added now! No more waiting for these to open up as we reach toward $100k!

I have also transferred the information to a separate page on my blog; you can now click the image for a more detailed look (I still need to clean a few of the images up to reflect the new availability of all the 28mm Leviathan weapons).

I folded the 15mm Mortis and all 15mm scale weapons into the $110k stretch goal.

Shadokesh Feral and Handler may now be added (to a maximum of 5 per backer) for $4.00 per set.


Let me know if you see anything that needs tweaking.

All the best!
Mark-

Wish we could get just the Mortis head as an upgrade part. I love the death's head look but I like the heavily armored crusader.

pledged this evening. send in the mechs, baby!

Thus my pledge had 20 USD added! THANKS Mark!

Definitely!!!

URGENT! Could someone who has pledged and can thus comment on the kickstarter page please tell Mark that he's messed up the graphic for the 15mm arms and the Heavy Support Troopers. He's put the $11 etc pricing for the arms under the troopers by mistake.

I really want to buy into this, but have never done a kickstarter before, so I'll definately have to take another peak at the KS page again, the extra ferals and handlers have increased the money I will spend, but I need to know when the money will be taken?

I get paid the day before it ends, but I only have internet access through work, and therefore I cannot wait until the very last moment, but I do need to wait until after I have been paid to ensure I have the money to cover it.

Money is taken the day it ends.

Good. Thanks KM. That means I can pledge early and not have the money taken out until I have enough to cover it.

By the way, can anyone contact the guy running this and let him know that the calculator is not adding the extra Shadokesh he says you can now get. I presume that will be stage 1 stuff, as they were supposed to be free with and pledge of $20 or more.

For some reason, I had thought it was "maximum 5 total" (counting the free one), but the wording does make it sound like you can add 5. Anyway, I added 4 last night and can always adjust it later

Wow, prices on the heavy troopers seem really good!

For the boxes of 5 (assault and support heavy troopers):
$11 for 1, $19 for 2, $25 for 3 boxes
+$8 for each box after 3

For the box of 20 (main line heavy troopers):
$42 for 1, $75 for 2, $99 for 3 boxes
+$32 for each box after 3

Also, for the command squad:
$30 for 1, $57 for 2, $75 for 3
+$25 for each box after 3

And 15mm arms are $10, or if you buy 4 you get the 4th free (so 4 for $30).

I hope those prices are good. The graphic is missing for the Heavy Troopers now.
I could see those being the KS prices. Very steep discount for helping get the line going, then going up a good deal for retail.

I mean, it is only $2.20 or so per figure with weapons.

As for the Shadokesh, I think it's 4 extras sets, 5 total. So only an additionaly $16 US for them.

The graphic shows up for me?

Mark posted pretty late last night that he was going to sleep and would check in the morning to answer any questions, but he is west coast time so... we might have a little bit of a wait

I am really stoked for those prices, though! The command squad is a little high, and I asked him if it would have any extra options or just what is pictured. But the prices on everything else- Wow!!

Compared to gee-dub, the price is still incredibly interesting. Especially with the quality of models offered. If it were great coats, I'd probably pass, but this is beautiful.

I am so torn right now, between replacing my UAMC guardsmen with Eisenkern all the way. I figured if I can get some meow meow minis female heads, these could be interesting. And available sooner... I was planning on using missile launchers as my main heavy weapon as well... so these boxes would have me covered.

We're in the single digits, boys and gals, this whirlwind will be over soon!

I've always had problems with images on kickstarter, seems like some images only load when they want to, need to pound F5 to see everything.

Hi Construct, that is not a mistake... Just good pricing for the Kickstarter crowd. Keep in mind that the heavy weapons and assault troopers are a box of 5.

Just for clarity on the Shadokesh 1 free 4 purchased=5 total. Not to worry the Shadokesh will be the next faction developed....
