I guess it's better than nothing if you're already backing at that level, but it's hardly an incentive for someone who is somewhat interested but still on the sidelines to jump on board...

Actually it is one free BOX at £250 level, in addition to all other free miniatures, previous and later price reductions.
Also keep in mind that kickstarters are for funding a project, not draining it of funds.

SWEET!!

I thought it "only" was a hero... I did pledge for the "Cartel" level and thus will aim to get:

2x Bauhaus Starters
+ 2x Vulcans
+1x Venusian Rangers
+1x Eitoles

1x Cybertronic Starter
+1x Armoured Chasseurs
+1x Machinators

1x Dark Legion Starter (Unless there will be an Imperial one with trenchers in it)
+1x Necromutants
+1x Praetorian Stalkers

Extras added:
1x Vulcan (free from Cartel level pledge)
1x Dice set
1x Dr Diana
1x Immortal
1x Curassiers
1x Max Steiner


Total pledge including the p&p to Sweden: £299 GBP


Depending on unlocks (like Imperial Trenchers) I might toss out the Dark Legion parts. I might ad additional heroes if unlocked and maybe additional squads.

I do love the Mortisfactors too...




WHat I do not like is the Bauhaus Hussars/Rangers. They simply lack the "Bauhaus feel". If given the iconic shoulderpads and the proper facemasks true to the old art, I'd be a very very happy backer!!

I dont know if im misunderstanding something but where does it say you get a free box at cartel level for the stretch goal. As i read it its a free hero mini and further 5% discount on add ons ?

Mongoose has had Judge Dredd and currently has Rogue Trooper. Which doesn't mean anything specific as we don't know the intricacies of Mongoose's deal with Rebellion or Prodos' deal with Paradox, but people like to keep bandying the "It's licenced, that means they simply can't offer deals!" - so it's worth pointing out. As for deals, they could clearly do better if they chose to, assuming they're going to sell to retailers or even moreso if they plan to sell to wholesalers. They're clearly not choosing to, so c'est la vie.

Mongoose Publishing is owned by Rebellion; Rebellion bought 2000AD back in 2000 and Mongoose in 2008. So there's really no licensing deals there...

They were partner companies, not owned, and that ended last summer. Still have a good working relationship, though.

The KS has now been updated with a F.A.Q. (scroll to the bottom of the page, here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/513277403/mutant-chronicles-warzone-resurrection).

You can now swap stuff (e.g. starter boxes) for credit you can use on other stuff.

Makes the Razide Pledge Level so much more interesting.

And an upgrade from Dark Legion to Cartel very appealing to me

Thanks Praetor. And also to let you all know there will be a number of new pledge levels coming over the weekend and beyond. One especially for 'gaming clubs'!

This is looking awsome. Now if only they ditched the rolled up sleeves for the bracers like in the concept art these guys would look AWESOME!
=D

The rolled up sleves don't ruin the look thow I will admit. I just think the bracers would look abit better.

Really? That's quite different and a much better deal than a single figure, which is what I got from the image above. Not going to debate the other point, as it's been argued endlessly already.

Okay, guess we talked about different things.
5% discount of £250 is £12.5 equalling 1 free box (but I now see that not all £250 are for add-on boxes).
The free miniature is in addition to that. Too lazy to calculate, if the 1£ reductions for all retail prices also cover 5%.

Sadly, it looks like neither Mishima nor Imperial will be part of the Kickstarter (except for the Doomtrooper, currently). Prodos did say they have 'special plans' for both Megacorps, but I haven't seen any more detail than that.

Of course, if things change and Imperial do become part of this project, it's all on. I have a burning desire for some new Trenchers, Blood Berets, and Wolfbanes.

New Add-on: Bauhaus Hussars: (Kickstarter Price £12 (RRP £12.99))


Renders of the Bauhaus Starter Set: (Kickstarter Price £30 (RRP £34.99))

Wow, I really like those Hussars.

Double post (sorry)

Love the look of the hussars now they aren't just standing there. Seriously considering Bauhaus as my first starter set (though the dark legion and pretorian stalkers are pretty tempting too). I suppose it all depends what Capitol look like (damn you for not doing Imperial first!).

Keep up the good work Prodos.

Sure it doesn't help, but Imperial are my personal favourite too!
We do have big plans for them

The main reason I have managed not to burn money on yet another kickstarter, no imperials yet, though, I have to admit, the Brotherhood mini's in are very tempting atm (as is Bauhaus). I hope I can hold out for a bit, not going back into Warzone is futlie, that is sure, but I don't think my significant other will be very pleased if I just keep on dumping money in left and right

Will the squad cards be purchasable outside of the squad boxes?

Those Bauhaus weapons look very, very flat.

The running poses look kinda ackword. Shouldn't they be running in away were then can bring their weapons to the ready quickly? they are holding them kinda low to the ground. It's not bad, it just seems off. I understand if it's to be able to switch the guns between the two troop choices.

Running well holding your gun above your head seems kinda strange. I would think that's a good way of tiring your arm pretty quickly. lol

The guy taking aim is nice since he is taking a proper shooting stance, thow his legs seem like they are spaced abit to far apart. It makes him look like he's squatting.

The at rest pose holding the gun above the head also seems kinda ackword. Looks like he's trying to flex his muscles to impress a lady or something.

other wise enjoying these greatly!

Please, please do something about the horrible unprotected shoulders, especially in the running pose :(

I don't get it from a tactical perspective, why is covering the arm more important than covering the shoulder? Even modern body armors are made to protect body and shoulders, not arms.

I don't think they're actually finished yet, they kinda look like placeholders.

I think that this is correct, plus Prodos has proven that they are ready to adjust their models according to the people's feedback.

I must agree, shoulder pads should do just that, protect the shoulders. They look strange the way they are right now. At least they should be placed higher, protecting less arms around the elbow area and more actual shoulders. I do not get it, what was wrong with the original shoulder pad design for Bauhaus? The Brotherhood got their original pads. I think bauhaus should get theirs too.

One more observation. Are there any sargeants for the squads in the army boxes or they will be released separately?

Why are all Hussars armed with LMGs? They should have Panzerknackers.

Those Hussars look great! I'm liking the re-design more and more as well. Makes them more distinct in general body style from Imperials who also favoured segmented, rounded shoulders. The more angular look goes well with their style. The helmet designs are great as well a little nod to Kev White's 2nd Edition Hussars on the second head type.

I also think the guns are place holders or WIP models (still missing a few of the bits from the concept like the ridged rail along the main barrel that seems to be prominent on both the LMG and the Panzerknacker). But they shouldn't play with it too much more. Nothing wrong with a simple, reliable looking gun. Just needs a few final details to finish it off.

New pledge level for gaming clubs: The Gaming Club: This is a special pledge level designed for big groups or clubs. (THE ITEMS IN THIS PLEDGE CAN NOT BE CHANGED FOR KICKSTARTER CREDITS-although you can add-on 'Add-ons'). You get 10 starter sets and 10 limited edition rule and background books. (~$675). Limited to 10

If I may?

As a runner... that back foot is impossibly placed. Unless it's a dance move, then carry on. If the body is leaning forward that much, and I love that, don't get me wrong, it would need to be in a "toe-off" position.

Anyone notice the backpacks as well? They weren't in any of the renders so far... it's a nice add-on, imho.

New pledge: The Cardinal: This is a special ONE! You get to choose one infantry unit type to get put into production, from any faction. We will then work with you to design them: from art, to concept, to 3D design, to final model. Your chosen squad will be lead by a leader with your face and s/he will feature in the Rule and Background book. You will then get 5 sets of this unit. As well as that, you will get all 4 starter boxes plus 8 extra squads of your choice, Kickstarter Special Edition Grand Strategy Cards Pack (30 cards), Limited Edition T-Shirt and Special Edition Signed Rules and Background Book. (PLEASE NOTE: a couple of units are not available for this offer. Please email us to confirm before you pledge) (~$6000). Limited to 1

I swear this was explained elsewhere, but I can't remember. I think it was Facebook (if Prodos wants to chime in then that'd be great as well). But I think the Panzerknacker version is still the basic one, but Bauhaus Hussars have a unique option of having any member of the unit upgrade to LMGs (costs a lot) rather than only one gunner. Which is, again, why I still think these ones are WIP. Because like the Chasseur and Undead Legionnaires, they have two potential weapon choices for the whole squad. At least that is what I was pulling from memory.

So you could still have a traditional 4 riflemen and one SAW gunner, or they could be deployed with all SAWs in a more support-oriented role.
