Can I ask someone to do the math for me? If I want striker + all the non-striker models, how much does one have to pledge? Is it still right now that 150$ + 20$ will get you every team and every MVP?

Striker gets you all 4 fisrt season teams, and all the add-ons, and all the MVP's (so far), and the rulebook, and the PDF of the 2nd season.
I think the only add-on after that (to this point) is the $20 for the female corporation team.

$170 currently. That will rise to $185 once the Keepers are added, and sold as a pack of 4 for $15.
Female team is being sold at 20% off RRP, Keepers are being sold at 50% off.
Worth noting that the $100 Jack level is still a very good deal for people who don't want to commit to putting a large amount of money into this, Mantic has made a pic for Jack level too:

Yes, that's the way I see it too.
Right now, 'only' spending $170 gets you everything miniature related.
But it is early, and there are 18 days left.
Plenty of time for way too many "For only $10 you get...this!" extras...!

The keepers for the first 4 teams will be a pay only option ($15 i think) when unlocked

@ Nkelsch - that's right they've been all the new MVPs into striker so if you go for the 150+20 for the girl team you'll get all of the models. oh, and the Keepers are an add-on too but you also get +2 girls in Striker meaning you'll have three teams of 10 and two of twelve. most of us expect at least the forge fathers and the vm to be raised to 12 by the end of the kickstarter.
150+20. If you want the keepers add +$15 and you'll get four models.

Of course, there's no need to get everything!
I'm personally just going to pitch in at guard level, which is also pretty cool if you want a bare minimal commitment/ are perpetually broke... you will still get digital copies of both the main rulebook and the season 2 expansion, as well as a team (which sometimes comes with a free MVP!), and a trophy mini.
So, everything you need to play a pick-up game with someone else who owns the board/ card/ counters (and there will be a lot of people with a copy looking for a game by the time this KS is over!).
For $30, shipped free to the EU and US, that's a pretty easy casual purchase decision to make.

Now you KNOW that's not true
Kickstarter disease means you HAVE to get everything (even stuff you have no use for, like 28mm Leviathans, Plush toys with Breasts, or ratmen playing sport)
If you don't get everything how do you bribe the grim reaper ?
when your time comes, he takes bribes you know
play it safe, get it all

Cool, so looks like 185$ is the new magic number.
Are they going to have number transfers for modeling?

Of course, once you've made that tiny little $30 pledge, it becomes a lot more tempting and easier to increase it..

They said they are looking into transfers
If they don't come through have a look for N-gague railway decals as an alternative, Somebody worked out that 2.5mm high is probably right for single digits, and 2mm for double digits

As far as I can tell shipping is only free to the UK and US unless you can point me in the direction of where it says EU is free and I'll happily drop the $15 shipping.

^ Don't forget your extra hex bases.
Glad to see "buy one get one free" make a return, it was a really popular addition to the KoW one.
Only for Striker pledgers this time around though, so no pledging $1 and then adding a team to get two.
It looks like one season is being made with every $200k of funding.
Hopefully we'll at least get to the end of season 3 with 12 teams unlocked by the time this is over.

No interest in buying the Judwan, but it looks fine for what it is. Mass Effect fans could probably turn them into Salarians just by resculpting the top of the head.
The buy one get one free offer only applies if you buy the four Season 1 teams, so that's still no use to me.

@ Alpharius
currently it's only on adding the female corporation team to Striker ($25 would get you two teams), but the new stretch goal is for the judwans so that that'll be the second season 2 team. looks like a lot of peopl have just added $50 on the faith that all four teams will be created. $215 would get you eight teams, even more mvps, 4 keepers, and more models added to striker (cuz they're giving away two of each new team player into Striker as well and one at Jack going forwards).
