Awesome, project funded. Thank you guys so much.
I'm racing to get some extra stuff up tonight before I need to sleep. I have school in the morning so tomorrow's updates will most likely be in the afternoon.
For the 15mm game forces will typically average 5-6 mecha per side.
For the 16mm game average forces will be about 12-16 mecha per side. It'll also have a rules set that is similar but tweaked a bit to work on squads and also smaller distances.
You can always go with larger with either scale for longe ror more involved games (current play time for the 15mm scale game is about 30-40minutes
As for funding I was hoping to be able to cover all the mediums, the lynx, osprey (and all 3 variants) and the blackfrost medium. If funding allows I'll gladly use the KS for the heavies and quads as well as I'd like to get the whole thing funded, but I'm not opposed to doing a later run at those if needed.

Congrats on funding. Now the fun of unlocking Stretch Goals can commence
Also I would recommend editing the first post of this thread to better reflect the current developments of the game and the Kickstarter.
The entry saying the Kickstarter plans have been cancelled is especially off-putting to someone clicking on the thread for the first time.

I know, right!?
The update has taken, literally, since the beginning of time.
What the hell is going on over there at Paulson Games?
I mean, aside from hopefully enjoying a celebratory beverage of their choosing, because they deserve it.
I'm joining you on the boycott... or I would, but I'd have to leave my early bird pledge.
What, you say you can't see them?
Must be for extra special backers only!
;-)
Note: no actual early birds exist.

After that opening burst this project has realy started to flatline, as per this unique graph from Kicktraq, I'm really starting to question is this project doing enough with its stretch goals?

This needs to trend.
The crimes perpetrated on us by Paulson games will not stand. This is an outrage!

Something about Chinese new year.... incoherent muttering... plague at the office.... Only having 6 people... yeah that's the source of all the communication delays, I swear it. You guys buy that right?
Going to toss up two more teasers and my update and then I'm in bed for realz this time.

Just in for a 6mm mech at this point. If you end up with a larger 6mm pledge I'd seriously consider it. I'd be interested in two of each + weapon options.
That said, these minis really need seams running down the front of each part. I've been told it's the only way it can be done : )

Will be a few days before I can pledge as I will need to talk to my 2 buddies to figure out what scale we're going to do and what factions we each are declaring, but so far so good... need to hit them strectch goals so we can get the fatty boom booms made!

And yes I did!
Can I suggest doing a magnet tutorial vid? Not saying most backers won't know what's up ... just that it will be a nice insight for some folks and give them a better sense of the weapon pack value.
Man, I really hope we unlock some more mechs in the next 15 days!

I'm in as soon as they unlock the Kingdom Death tie-in figure of the Twilight Knight pin-up mecha. I hear the Double Damage torpedoes will be so huge they'll have to be separate pieces.

The light and medium weapon pack stretch goals are hit! At 6k three 6mm mech chassis unlock, along with the 15mm Osprey. Seems like a good idea to add a larger pledge level for 6mm at that point  (and maybe a larger 15mm one, too, as in Manchu's post above, slightly discounted for quantity).

When are you coming out with a firefly tie-in crew? Also, we should all spam Penny Arcade so they'll mention this project and a million backers will join.
Awesome looking stuff. I'll be keeping my eyes on it.

I second the KD tie-in figure.  MASSIVE torpedoes and hips!

Excellent, thanks Manchu! I think paulson is still asleep  or cropping photos. I forget where he is located, but I think within driving range of AdeptiCon, so probably central time.
