More Deadzone?

We are wondering whether revisiting Deadzone later in the year would be popular. We think it could be!

By revisiting Deadzone, it would give us a chance to do the Veer-myn in a skirmish setting, and also add to the first 6 factions – making sure each one has some hard plastic basic troops - which would help with you-know-what ☺

And because this would be an expansion kickstarter it will be just an update set, not a game itself, so it should not be too heavy on the wallet – unless it goes crazy again, but that is in your hands not mine!

I think this will be the next kickstarter so we can get on with tooling the hard plastics and Veer-myn asap. I would hope we could have some Alpha rules for Warpath out during this KS too, so you can get out your existing models and have a try of the wargame.

We will also do a quick play Deadzone guide – and in a year’s time when it ships we could put out an updated rulebook with stats and info for every faction, plus any errata and other areas that need clarification. We could also get a few more scenery sprues done to add to the Battlezones and just add more to that.
So if this gets you excited let’s have your ideas for new units you would like to see for the existing factions (and ones that would work well in both the skirmish and wargame setting would be even better) and also send us ideas for what you’d like to see on the terrain. We have a great back-story that is all about the Veer-myn outbreak on a dying mining planet and the large local Space Station, but terrain ideas would be fantastic.

What is the range missing? What could it do with more of? Let us know in the comments!

Not sure. I got a metal Mawbeast for the strictly bitey type. Which looks rather nice IMO. Not a fan of the chainblade thing.

Has anyone else noticed that the KS Landing Pad battlezone doesn't have the same contents as the retail version?

Yeah, I'm doing it based on reports starting to come in, such as the ones above as well as my own personal experience. How long would you expect people to "wait and see" for? Until it's all over?

That's two. Out of 4,306 backers, plus how ever many mantic allowed to pledge after it ended. Given a few other have complained on here and on the main forum let's be generous and say 20, which would make 0.46%
Yes that's an assumption, but given many people come onto forums to complain and it's generally the same people here, on the official forums and on the KS comments I think we can be fairly accurate and say that while errors happen, they're very much in the minority.
I tend to stay out of bashing or supporting companies on forums, but Azazel for more than a few pages know you've been going on as if your's is the only opinion which counts. Please get some perspective.

They have a history of fething up orders, including almost every package they've ever sent me. Ronnie has come out and publicly apologised for their endless errors, and they've said that they'll try and do better in the future. I have no interest in tracking down how many individual people complain, since I'm sure they don't all post on forums the way some of us do. Now, given their history, their admittance of it being a continuing issue, and the fact that reports are coming out with more mistakes, I think my own opinion and perspective is pretty good. I see no actual benefit in people telling me to shut up and "wait and see". If I want to be cynical I'll fething well be cynical. You can be as hopeful and positive as you like, as long as you don't try and tell me that I can't be cynical.

And more than a few pages? Really? You mean the previous two posts where I said such harsh things as this?:

Good to see that Mantic's packing QA is as good as ever. Perhaps I won't be closing the book on this KS in Sept-Oct, but Nov-Dec as I work with them (and their response delays) in order to get everything sorted out...
/sigh

Yeah, perhaps is such a strong and negative word. Such a harsh and negative post.

I've been going on as though mine is the only opinion that counts? For more than a few pages? Really? Press the "filter thread" button on my profile to see just how full of gak that statement of yours is. - note to mods - if someone talks clear bs about what I've said, I'll call it out.

Really though, feel free to chuck me on ignore then since I disagree with you. I don't really care. I put morons on ignore all the time.

Might the books be in a separate box?
Mine were, and I didn't even have that large of shipment this time around. Totally could have fit them in the first box.
My order slip (that I got after the fact) said I would receive one box. I got two.
Who knows? Sorry they bungled your order. Then again, they did mine too, but from the sound of things, I'm not the only one missing their Brokkrs and mining laser...
