Will be interested to find out what she'll cost to add more of (probably limit 5 total like the Shadokesh model?). Also, it sounds like both of those are going to be plastic, just like the other parts? Seems impractical, but they're being produced by WGF so I don't think there's another option.

Also, already over $160K . Would be crazy if we already hit the stretch for Ada before tomorrow really started. I think Mark is out of stretch goals but I can see this clearing $180K. It made over $13K yesterday and again today, with time still to go today... so $20K tomorrow is actually pretty likely, I think.

Really psyched for the November releases, that's not far away

Blah...it's a good thing I'll be out of town tomorrow and unable to constantly tweak my pledge upward as I've already done again...

And yay! Someone else as "gung-ho" as me for this! Or crazy...also probably a good word.

Need to know the price for additional ada's, not sure what to use her for, but will max that out like the shadokesh.

It's a struggle for me right now not to jump in on 4 boxes of infantry for a Sisters counts-as force....Swap the heads out with the arbite heads by Maxmini that just came out and boom.....Adeptus Arbite force. So tempting.....it's only a hundred more bucks.....

Do it....do it....do it....

Then you could rig up heavy weapons on the dozen MULES you'd get for a retributor squad or something along those lines. Heck, the APC with rockets would be an excellent stand-in for an Exorcist...

You know, just sayin'....

DOOO EET!

Yeah, sounds hard to resist Hulk . I think those troopers are going to look fantastic with head swaps. For now, I'm just planning to use the unhelmeted heads on the sprue, but I'm very interested to see what they look like with others. I think they're a bit of a blank canvas that head swaps and painting can take in a lot of different directions

Im so using the Cyber heads puppets war previewed a while back.

@Vitruvian

Those are great for an admech force. Very, very pretty.

Damn straight, thats exactly what im using this kickstarter for

If I can find some decent female heads, I'll be starting a sisters of battle army that doesn't cost $500

Hm, here's a question.

The "Twin Vulkans" is listed as Stage 1 shipping, but the "Left Hand Vulkan" is listed as Stage 2.

Does this mean if you go for a Crusader you'll get your stuff in November including the left Hand Vulkan? Or your November order will ship in March unless you pay extra for shipping.

Or is that only if you get extra left arm Vulkans?

I believe the freebie left Vulkan will ship with the November dispatch, after all, there is no extra shipping charge with it, and if that would otherwise be the only thing from stage 2 then Mark will be out of a lot of money on the freebie Vulkans. So yes, Crusaders, cooler capacitors, Excalibur, and freebie Left Vulkan will be November dispatches (Estimated).

As it is, with the addition of the APCs and extras for them, I have now gone in for some items from each stage, so when the freebie Vulkan arrives doesn't really bother me - I'll have enough painty goodness to be getting on with no matter what.

$165k reached! Probably can make one more stretch goal before it's all over.

Funny how the money is pouring in faster NOW then when we had goals to meet.

Gah!

My wallet is squeeling like a pig on a honeymoon!

Went to add in the 2 Stuka Zu Fuss for my 2 APCs, then realised that's within $15 of an extra APC, so removed them again and went for the triple. That at least gives me the 2 I needed for the troops I want, and the one for the Diorama model I'm planning.

But still, my pledge has gone from around $250 to $400.

>.< my pledge is. Still sitting at a big fat whopping total of absolutely $0.00 yup! $0.00! I want to buy something, but I,ve got soooooo much crap on the go already, and the reaper minies on the way at some point too, I am doing a lot of nail biting because I know I will regret not spending, and I will regret spending too .... GAH!!!!!!

Edited to correct this piece of worthless gak autocorrect on my worthless ipad. With a small p!

$2 per extra, max of 5 including the freebie.

Must admit, I don't see the likelyhood of her being plastic, moulds would be too expensive for the limited run. Currently around 640 backers and even if everyone went for a full 5, I'm not, that would only mean 3,200 made. Nowhere near enough to justify plastic (IMO).

Mark added Zeus at $185k. It's the apc with a big cannon on top. We just need $18k as of right now to unlock.

Where are all the Orc players needing big trucks

Man... that is tempting. Will depend on how much it costs to add but it is sweet!

Agreed! Where did you see the price listed? I will probably add 4 more to have the full 5, but want to make sure I'm adding the right amount.

Darn it! I want that new vehicle so much! There is me thinking my pledge is a done deal...

The price is listed in the pledge manager. I haven't seen it anywhere else.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I'm back in for $700. I'll need some new bathwater, apparently. The price of the heavy infantry support and assault got me mulling it over again, and the leviathans are still very nice.

I love the look of those APCs, but they're just too expensive, (2 APCs vs a Leviathan) and I'm already tapped out. I'll look at getting those, regular infantry, regular heavy infantry, more weapons etc down the line at discount retail.

She is listed as a stage 1 delivery too.

Might actually pick up a couple of them...not sure she'd work as a Vindicare but I'm sure I can think of something.

I really want to know how Mark knows what to put on things to make me say "DO WANT!! WANT WANT WANT!"; it's becoming quite troublesome as I'm already quite close to spending my budget for models for the entire estimated delivery window...

Well, if she is to be cast in metal, it should be a little easier for Mark to organise.

Yeah, I don't see them doing her in plastic just because of the costs involved and that she's a one-off, as others have said.

It'll be interesting to see if we make it to the final stretch goal; I'd throw in the cost of it now but I suppose I'll just have to get my phone set up to be able to up my pledge in case we get in shouting distance.

And the more I look at that Stuka Zu Fuss, the less I am worried that I turned a couple into another APC.

In fact, I'd like to see a variant on that which could be used as a re-arming vehicle for the Crusader. Instead of the tripple rockets along the sides, maybe a couple of magazines for the Grendel, Beowolf, or Vulkan along each side.

Don't know if it would mean anything in the game rules, but would give a diorama a little something extra.

And the Zeus isn't doing much for me either. Can't really put my finger on it, and I do realise that this is a really early render, but I think it could do with being

A. a little longer in the breach, and probably the barrel too. longer barrels rob some of the power, but increase accuracy, so this seems to be a little too close to the Stuka Zu Fuss - powerfull but not necessarily that accurate.

B. a little higher (Possibly). The longer the breach, the lower the angle it will be stopped at when it hits the floor, so the nearer horizontal it will be firing.

It may also be I was thinking more of a variant with a 'flat-bed' rear and a turret mounted AA flak quad or the equivalent of an '88' on the back.

*sigh*
That $185K goal...is what I was most hoping for. But, do I keep my three Not-Manticores and add three Not-Basilisks, or switch them?
Decisions, decisions...

I say get one with missiles and two with rockets!

I just added the 4 extra Adas, in case I want to add snipers to my infantry platoon (as the command squad snipers don't ship until Stage 3).

We're clear of $170K, with 17 hours to go! $185K is looking good

If the Zeus conversion becomes a regular retail item Ill be all over it. So as soon as they hit market thats 1 APC and 1 Zeus. Probably a couple 15mm Leviathans too.

It is just a shame the KS finishes at 3am where I live, I will probably be sleeping when we reach the end so hopefully we reach the last stretch so I can pledge for it!
