Finally got a chance to watch the second video and I'm hooked now, some very interesting mechanics on display here. Also super glad that the hunters are in the final expansion, what can I say? Love my guns!

@BrookM: There are no guns or other blackpowder weapons in Kingdom Death.

Also, regarding the upcoming unlock, looks like yeah, it's going to be Kandi again, her lantern looks an awful lot like a cola bottle.

Female huntress looks like she's brandishing a pistol.

@BrookM: Yeah. I thought so at first too, but Adam has stated that all of those shooty weapons are crossbows.

Same thing with the Man hunter, which I have to say looks extremely much like a pistol. But that is obviously too a crossbow.

Does anyone know if the Pin-ups are going to be available after the kickstarter? I know Nico isn't but what about the normal ones?

I am workblocked from BBG - can some kind soul summarize what's in that post?

It will help me plan my KD budget, as I think I'm going to have to wait on some (or all!) of the pin-ups.

Thanks!

Question:

Meaning lets say i opt in to the K.S. just for the basic game. Will i be able to purchase the expansions and additional miniatures, and if yes, where? Just through the webstore or will these be in brick and mortar stores? Thank you in advance.

Answer:

Yes, everything will be available at the kingdom death webstore. Nothing from the kickstarter will be available until backers get their rewards AND anything labeled as a kickstarter exclusive will not be available in any other way.

Only Adam and Anna are kickstarter exclusives. Everything else will be available in some form at a later date.

The holiday special Nico might be hard to get later, but I suspect it will pop up for the holidays maybe next year again. It isn't KS specific, though.

Thanks guys - much appreciated!

Edit: bah ninjas

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here... but the Lantern Festival package is like, a ridiculous deal, right? 3 Human Sized minis. 2 Large Monster Sized minis. All the cards. Even at the MSRP of $65 it seems like a bargain. But at $45?

WHAAAAAAT?

Seriously, this last update has me going a little insane on this Friday morning.

The other thing that looks to be KS exclusive is the Multi-pack armour kits

1 for $25 (4 minis) or 5 for $50 (20 minis) (not all kits are available this way, you'll need to check if the one(s) you might want are

Adam has said they only make sense from his point of view as part of the KS, not as a steady prescence in the shop (though that may change if there is enough post KS demand)

so after the KS the only way to get them would be another game or expansion box

so if you need a regiment of very tall fantasy warriors (35mm figures remember) grab them now

Just nod and try not to look too worried.

Oh yes, it's the best deal of the lot IMO

(but it doesn't come with the 4 armour kit minis of the previous big expansions, but presumably that's because you can only get a single cloak from a defeated watcher)

Here comes the upswing!




The Lantern Festival being such a good deal should help a lot.

Another 'freebie' or two will also help a lot...

Not too interested in a Soda Pop crossover model... those are cool for a campaign but what would you ever do with it?

Lantern festival kicks butt and takes names, though.

And babies are made no doubt.

No, not babies! Just think of how the population will look after a couple of generations if only the big-boobed ones gets spawns. Ohh.. The horror!

I dunno... I'm sure she and her pin-up friends will look simply delightful next to my Marie-Claude Tentacle Bento mini

LOL, this things going to hit 2 million by the end of the day there.

As to the project, it is really interesting in concept and game. Too bad they have to add in the additional gimmick of soda pops stuff. Not enough publicity, I guess.

I'd like to see her getting chewed up by one of those monsters, then that bottle of coke there to wash her down with. Only reason I'd get that model would be to chop up the bits and add them to the bases. Maybe give her to the spiderman for some cheap thrills and spills.

Aside from my misgivings of CMON being involved, I'm back in for the game and the added stuff. I have a local game area thats going to gak themselves over this one. I had to redgumicate a few of them on the KS projects. They didn't even know anything about kickstarter if you can believe that.

Yeah, if that is in fact a Candy/Cola mini, it's a weird add, as it's directly associated with Soda Pop MIniatures and not CMON (which, while partnered, are definitely different companies).

However, perhaps that would indicate that they're looking at some similar plastic tooling to the Sedition Wars/Relic Knights games, which, based on what I've seen, could be a very good thing.

I agree with that adding a Candy/Cola miniature isn't something I personaly prefer. I'd much rather see another KD miniature.

It's wierd if Adam would "sell" out like this.

Remember Adam is a Gamer

He may well enjoy playing Soda Pop games and/or collecting the minis

or he may even know/be friends with some of the soda pop crew

If so a Candy pinup would be complelty apropriate (if it is a Candy, he's surprised me before, LOL)

Cadace's Email has some variation of Flesh Tuxedo in it...so I wouldn't doubt they're friends

I think it would be an interesting little homage, and I have no problem with the "boutique" miniature shops having a collective/brotherhood.

With that in mind, Poots....I expect to see you at GenCon 2013 with Marie-Claude dressed as Nico......

And remember, a Sodapop mini may draw in Sodapop fans, meaning more pledges and another swift ascent.

So I'm just going to throw this out there and encourage you all to help: Lets get Battlefoam in at ground level and have them work with poots so all the base game items will fit in the box. As much as I love my dreadfleet foam, it drives me a little crazy that the box nearly doubles in height.

So who's with me for battlefoam inserts for this gorgeous, gorgeous game?

Sorry, but I'll pass. I'd much rather see stretch goals for more KD items (pinups or game expansions) rather than other things, because those I can get anyway if I want. But to have Adam commission another few miniatures that he will have produced during this year will not be possible for me to get from somehwere else.

"Cadace's email"?

One of the things I have enjoyed about this campaign and Adam's running of KD itself has been his openness about not operating in a vacuum. But such things are like director cameos: what some people enjoy, other people find cheesy or ego-driven, even as others find them charming and self-deprecating.

Well, there is only one appropriate response to that...

John Cadace is one of the owners/founders of Soda Pop. I remember the first time we exchanged emails being surprised by his email name of FleshyTuxedoMan or something along those lines. Pretty funny.

I think CMON is becoming a really great vehicle for getting all of these art driven boutique minis guys together. Between Sedition Wars, Relic Knights, Kingdom Death and the upcoming Wrath of Kings and Confrontation Phoenix, we have a lot of beautiful, small publisher minis on the horizon.

Coincidentally with all that in mind, I've barely looked at all the new Dark Angels stuff.....

Ah, thanks, didn't know that!

Not to minimize C'MoN, but I would put a primacy more on the virtue of kickstarter itself, if for no other reason then one venture I think may, 2-5 years from now, be the most consequential is the Dreamforge Games and their campaign. Especially given the credit crunch in the US, the ability of fledgling companies to bypass the traditional gatekeepers of finance and draw directly from their customers is simply transformative.

Your mention of the Dark Angels stuff is a case in point: previously, if you wanted plastic miniatures, your choices were so restricted... but that's all changing. DFG will soon have... uh, 5-8(?) very impressive plastic infantry kits on the market. Now, they will start with a particular look (all being from one faction), but can we doubt to see more from him (I know that, unless the kits I'm waiting for fall far short of their pictures, I'll be going in on the Shadowkesh campaign, presuming there is one). But why should he be alone?

There is a huge hunger out there for things other then the aesthetic/style of GW, but we are approaching the point where small makers like Poots or Mondragon or Cadace are able to turn the unmet desire of the consumers into start-up capitol. It's an exciting time for this industry and the consumer!

I have a question for you guys about my pledge. I wish to pledge for the following stuff:

Survivor Pledge $155
International Postage $45
Dung Beetle Knight Expansion $25
Flower Knight Expansion $15
Dragon King Expansion $30
Gorm Expansion $40
Lantern Festival Expansion $35
Rawhide Dame $15
Pheonix Dancer $15
Lioness $15
Dragon Sacrifice $15
Leather Queen $15
Regeneration Suit $15
Holiday White Speaker Nico $20
50x Face Base Inserts $40

I adjusted my pledge on the website, but nowhere does it ask for the stuff I want. Any idea where / how I tell it what I actually want?

Many thanks!
