Caution: Tangent Approaching,

I'm hugely conflicted about my wargaming just now. I get one game of "something" in a week at our local club, so it is pointless playing too many systems else I just won't play some games for months.

As much as it is flawed, I'm not going to leave 40K behind, but my current two armies will remain my only two unless there is a huge sea change with the company and the game (most models are already owned for both, but I only use painted models and I have plenty of work still to do)

I really enjoy X Wing, and because it is pre painted, it fits really well alongside other more demanding systems.

I have played and enjoy Infinity, and own some elements of an Aleph force, but it is looking likely for the chop for the time being, as I'm rethinking my faction choice, and I suspect that work on Darklands is likely to bump working in Infinity even further down the paint queue.

I'd really like to try DZC too, and have the rulebook, but no minis as yet.

I have several friends who keep trying to lure me into Warmachine too, but the aesthetic isn't my thing.

Wow, writing this post hasn't really helped clarify where to focus, but it has made me realise what an amazing time this is for the hobby!

Az. What infinty faction were you looking for?

Also, buy anislaug. Everyone can use an extra dragon.

I was thinking of going the Knights sectorial for Pan-O, but like I said, I think that's a ways in the future just now, and I'm better off liquidating the models I have and returning to it when I'm ready (keeping the books though)

Was just curious. I'm probably gonna move my Aridana scotsmen.

Angrislaug ordered, bunch of stuff listed on eBay.

I know I've done right, because I'm not in the least sorry!

Plastictrees, it is your fault, as the image of him as a white dragon was one I couldn't resist!

Yes, yes, don't even try to resist.

I'm going all in on Darklands with a side of Infinity as I accept the reality of what the hobby is for me now.
Xwing is the game of choice for us at the moment, and even that gets played once a month at best.
Darklands and Infinty cover my fantasy and scifi bases, and give me incredible models and wildly diverse terrain options to get my hobby on with. I can guarantee forcing some of the guys to play at least once and if that's it, then so be it.

I know how you feel
Whatever the risk of not getting many games in, these models are too good not to have some of really

Absolutely no intention of being able to play the games. The models are just too nice to care about that.

Will look at the rules and see if I can... just because now isn't a good time for games doesn't mean I don't want to later.

Just ordered Angrislaug. Deep, deep into overdraft now, and two weeks til payday. It wasn't supposed to go down like this.

Didn't really have any intention of getting any Brythoniaid, might have to consider it now though.

Just couldn't pass up on that dragon at £40. About the best monster I've ever, ever seen.

You can only get the Hydra for 40 pounds if you have KS1 access to the Mierce site, correct?

Yes, There are about 20 things still available at the KS1 prices.

Hydra and Dragon are 2 of them (Vaak and the Lumboring Mallox are others).

Indeed. Really looking forward to seeing how that Mallox turns out. Should be a hell of a beast.

I didn't have access to the ks1 bit. I just preordered at £40. The hydra is there for preorder too.

Danny Cruz has finished one of the Werewulf concept art pieces (delayed from KS1)



good golly miss molly it looks good

It's great, but not really fond of the "stand on stone" pose. But I guess that Darklands is quite a rocky place, so it does make sense in a way on the other hand. :p

Just on the Mierce website? Good to know although I'm guessing that price goes up Monday, too.

grefven, those look like heads/skulls to me, not stone...

I can't see them on the Mierce site...........?

They're not easy to navigate to, but they are there,

Everything still available at KS1 prices for non-KS1 backers is in the "preorders" section.

I didn't know that until today!

Thanks (or given the £ implications, maybe ............. )

If you type in the (somewhat complicated) name of the model you are looking for you can pre-order at KS1 prices, just like Alph said. I placed an order for some and saved a huge 35%!! It also qualified for free shipping. I guess if you want some of these this weekend is the time to get them.

Oh man I really didnt want to google those to find out what they looked like

So we have until Monday to pre order them at half price?

I think you'll need to get your order in before Monday?

And to be on the safe side, why not?!?

I would imagine you'll have a few hours grace, as given the hours Rob has put in through the KS, I would expect him to have the weekend off, and will probably take a few hours to make the changes to the site in Monday morning, but why risk it if you want it?

They have the RRP price on all the models so you can clearly see what a good deal you are getting. I didn't wait when I saw that.

Guys,
You're only able to see the Kickstarter I items if you have access to them; but after the first Kickstarter, as a thank you, I gave everybody who was registered on our website access. You would have been registered already if we'd send any orders to you of course.

Thus, there will be some of you who think you don't have access - but actually do but had no idea.

Additionally, there was an error in the search function - enabling you to see the Kickstarter I items and buy them even if you didn't have access - but that is now fixed.

I'll honour all the purchases today of course, regardless of where they've come from! But nobody outside the first registrations and Kickstarter I can see them any longer.

Hope that explains a few things!

Cheers

I wasnt quick enough, both models have been removed :(

They're onto us . I guess it's a good thing to have customers clamoring to buy, though!

Can't wait to see the Blood Maw in the flesh.... er, resin.

Edit: GiraffeX, I bet azrael13 would add something onto his pledge for you. He offered to do it for Alpharius on the last page, and he's in the UK:

Worst case scenario, Alph, I can order him for you, would need to ship over, not sure how efficient that is vs getting it ordered direct to the US.

Well, bang goes my theory of him taking a few days off!

Speak of the devil . Just edited my post above regarding you, azrael, just post up if that's not correct.
