I'll go back to compulsively refreshing this page.... and look it paid off!

Sweet early bird special.

Same here, think I was #5

A while to wait before it goes from phantom dollars to real ones I need to pay, so think I can wrangle the cash... The list of stretch goals, and the fact that I can play 3x3 or 4x4 on it sold me...


Really hoping to see the desert and trench boards, but if this doesn't explode, I'll still be happy with the city or generic ones.

Well I went for the Skirmisher EB glad to see the $125 includes the shipping as well. I considered the Wargamer level but then I saw that you can add a second set of 16 for $108 so it will only cost me $8 to keep my options open. This is all dependent on it hitting $160k for the Urban streets I'm not interested in the scrapyard.

Shipping being included did it for me. Pledged!

Oh, do you want to make a new thread now that your kickstarter is active Mister Justin? That way you can keep the title updated when we hit a stretch goal and we don't have 7 pages of overenthusiastic gamers getting far too excited!

I am in for the 4'x8'!

Good luck with this misterjustin! ...

Is it just me or is Skirmisher Deluxe priced wrong.

Skirmisher plus a set of Walls $150 + $135 = $285
Skirmisher Deluxe (same thing as far as I can see) = $300

and with an EB it's even cheaper at $260 or am I missing something?

EDIT: same for Wargamer plus walls $385 versus Wargamer Deluxe $400

And pledged..now as long as we don't have nuclear war in asia, October will be a great month!

I have a couple soldier buddies that likely will jump on this too.

Well lets hit that 400K mark, and see what that unlocks

Backed at the Wargame level.

Sooo, went in for the early bird 8x4 and might upgrade to the 4x4 deluxe depending on how many walls/terrain you get.. I'd love a scale shot of them, because a 4x4 heavy terrain junkyard would be a very different, but cool setting for some infinity.

Same here. I backed the "Wargamer" level in anticipation that they'll hit the stretch for urban streets. If that doesn't happen I'll seriously consider pulling funding at the end.

And SOLD!!!

Lucky pledger 54 of the 100 sets for $225!!!

And now we wait...

Also, I need to find a sig banner for this KS.

Looking forward to the Generics and the Trenches!

20k in the first few minutes is pretty awesome

Well, shipping was solved soooooo pledged. I swore I wouldn't get any table to game on untill we actually moved house but, plans change .

I do hope we get a bit higher now though, would most prefer universal or city stuff (Well, trenchworks would be the most epic since I just began a DKK army and it would give me a valid excuse to blow some cash on those nice bases aswell, but tbh, I doubt we'll hit that ).

Regardless, it will be an awesome table, hope it'll keep on going strong with the rise, a fairly solid first sprint, lets hope it won't level off to much.

BTW, video said 1/4" thickness. That's pretty much an exact fit with Realms of battle.

My exact thinking. I want to see how the different sets line up with each other.

It's not just you -- the wrong prices were added to the add-on menu. I'll have that corrected -- sorry for the hassle, but thank you for the catch. I can't believe we all missed that!!!

Is the 16 tiles one set, or is it possible to mix it from all available unlocked tiles?

Ah OK I knew something didn't add up but I figured I'd mention it here first rather than on the KS comments just in case.

I think the front page looks great - Ive seen some cool Kickstarters recently with just really hard to navigate front pages. So this is nice and clean and well organized.

Two suggestions:

The complete table layout in the video was a bit washed out by the light coming from the window and it's hard to appreciate some of the details in the shots of the tile in that first picture after the video. Once you get a few tiles painted up I would update the front page with those as the first image showing the detail and contrast - and a still image of a complete board set up.

Also a suggestion on stretch goals? If possible, consider adding additional terrain add-ons at the halfway mark between Themes. For example if you need another 80k to unlock the Ruined Temple theme, I suggest adding Ruined Temple add-on scatter terrain at 40k. There will be wargamers who would be eager to buy that terrain for any number of pre-existing boards and bringing it out early keeps the momentum & good vibes going and helps push for the next full theme.

They've updated the add on costs - shot myself in the foot there! extra 16 tiles gone from $108 to $135 - ah well best to get the correct prices out now I doubt with the tight costs that Secret Weapon could afford to carry any errors in pricing later particularly not a 10% one.

Just backed for the Skirmisher level, I've got a question.

If we reach the generics or trenches or golden hills, what have you. Will we have the option of trading out our urban set for one of those sets?

Woot! Justin congrats brother.

Hope @ 160 we get a jungle set.

And I pledged, early bird and all that. That money was supposed to go to Raging Heroes, but this is too good to pass up on!

@Cryptek - the scatter and other terrain will not be covered by the KS, because it's already in development. That is standard SWM product and I'll cover the cost of that completely. But given that I don't know which will be ready first, or on time for KS pledge delivery, I've left it off. My goal is to make sure that anything you're pledging for can be delivered ON TIME and without complications.

@Alfndrate - you will be able select ANY of the unlocked themes for your pledge.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!

We broke 25% in less than an hour -- and I had six pledges before I even made an announcement. WOW!

You should "quickly" add some board avatars and other things to spread the message of you kickstarter
I guess you've already planed on sending loads of info notes to all the popular community pages, riiight?

This is great. Its wonderful that in this time of animosity and distrust towards certain companies that occasionally somebody comes along and does something that people love and appreciate.

I'm in for $225, I can tell this is going to be a big one!

Awesome, because while I like the current offerings, I don't play much in the way of games that would truly benefit from that sort of thing, so generic or other styles would be better for me

Glad to see this is such a hit!
