Team 'Murica.

What is disturbing is that no one mentioned my joke about Metric time keeping...

You know it's funny when people get it but don't mention it and then you do, so chalk it up as a win.

ps looks like it's go.

Jutes very definitely the early favourites for me, but I'm hoping for some interesting Eirainn unlocks.

Those are looking really sweet! The marsh monster thing is pretty tempting all by itself. I love the Greeks too, though their spear heads are terribly impractical. That is really glaring to me :(

**Alpharius**

Same here in regards to the Jutes - who were a last minute surprise really - but I'm loving the Atalantean stuff too!

And I'm happy to see Sáthach on horse available right out of the gate too!

I'm also surprised how I'm not that excited by anything Érainn - yet!

I'll give it time...

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

Come on people pledge all the money,

I want to see the monstrous infantry!

Me too! As there is nothing I fancy at the moment.

They are certainly asking for all the money, aren't they?

**Alpharius**

Not sure what level we have to hit to see those, but it might take a bit yet...

**JWBS**

I've got £100 in for the monstrous set and I'll probably double it for x2 (I've finally accepted that it's all about the monsters for me), but I'll be throwing the rest in at strategic points.

**Alpharius**

Which Monstrous Sets?

**JWBS**

That remains to be seen. I'm hoping something from FE2 (I dunno if they're in but there's a chance, and also a chance of FE2 alternates, from what I've read) so...Oghur, werewolves, brutes, or fiends I expect. Maybe alt minotaurs or lizard men too though.

**RoninXiC**

I think this is is quite overcomplicated ... it's really hard to grasp what exactly is a strechgoal and included in what pledge?!?!?

**Zond**

This campaign ends at a funny time for me, so might only manage £80, and up to £220 if I can post campaign.

**cincydooley**

I think its really important to note the three sculptors for the starting monstrous beasties: Roberto Chardon doing the Bull (I Bet he has it finished before MIKH finishes his bull), Allan Carrasco on the Fen Beast, and Aragorn Marks on the beetle.

I think this may be Aragorn's first sculpt for Mierce since the 'first run' of models. VERY exciting to see him in the fold again.

Also hoping this big badass becomes an Eirann model:

**Baragash**

Bwahahaha. I thought I'd be playing this tight and cheap and I'm in for £320 out of the gate (new kindred starters + alt characters). *le wallet sigh*

**Alpharius**

£80K to 'unlock' the Monstrous Infantry - that might take a while to get to...I hope we get to see them long before then!

Update time!

£15,000 - Alternate Generals

You guys have smashed through £10,000 in about half an hour, so it's time to bring you a little stretch goal!

At £15,000, which is not too far away, we have all those project exclusive alternate generals to chuck at you...

These guys are strictly project exclusive; they will never, ever be released to the general public, although we do reserve the right to produce them for sale at shows and events.

No Exchanges!

Please note, we will not exchange the alternate general within the starter hosts for any other miniature, so please don't ask! They are tied to their host.

The reason for doing this is simple - logistically it's a nightmare to exchange miniatures and will lead to errors when we get to packing your orders. Of course, we are very sure that other backers will help out with exchanges, and our forums are the perfect place to do so!

**Baragash**

£60k for monstrous stretch, not £80k

**Alpharius**

Update:

First Monstrous Infantry at £60K.

Not sure when we'll see it though!

**cincydooley**

Well, at the very least I'll probably be in for the bareheaded Knutr and the Mawdred

That's it?!?

No way!

**JudgeShamgar**

If someone is interested in the "All the Infantry" pledge, but does not want them all let me know. I might be interested in some of them.

**zedmeister**

Here's a nice little sneak peak:

Cwalu, Drēaguth

A Jute spectre of sorts.

**Alpharius**

On a 50mm base no less...

**cincydooley**

I'm staying away from the wights. I'm staying away form the wights. You only need 4 armies. You only need 4 armies....

You can't resist. I know I can't. I mean look at them. The dead of black barrow. The sinister wraith. The giant beetle. All sculpted by Aragorn Marks none the less. They call to you...

**Alpharius**

I WISH I could've stopped at 'only' 4 Kindreds!

Dropping my GW spending to zero helped a bit though...

Infinity keeps siphoning my $$.

I think in terms of actual spending for hobby, I'm really down to Dark Age, Infinity, and Mierce.

Oh yeah, the real problem is all the outstanding Pledge Managers I still have to close
