Excellent! New update is up I'd copy and paste but I'm on my phone.

Ask and ye shall receive!
New stretch goal map with additional Amazon goal of Amazon cavalry!




Also painted Amazons for you


Lastly, there is now a $130k stretch goal for a Hydra!

I actually saw the adjusted map on the main KS page just before the update went up... was very confused for a minute there until they updated explaining that they'd added the extra stretches. Cavalry is always welcome

I'm mostly surprised that no-one has pointed out to a certain segment of the Kickstarter population that the Dionysus concept sketch looks an awful lot like Bran Blessed....

It doesn't count if he doesn't have his Vultan wings on!


DIIIIIIIVEEE!

Only about 2.5K to go to unlock automatons . Got a nice bump after that update and likely will again when the automatons unlock.

Aye I might get some of the hounds for Aura's Krieg/Iron Empire army.

Does the Amazonian Peltast Captain remind anyone else of a certain Amazon Princess? One with a magic lasso...

BobtheInquisitor- I totally see it! The princess you're talking about would most likely be a Demigoddess of Hera, though. Here's hoping there are rules for those forthcoming.

How would those plastic Spartans and other ancient greeks from Immortal or Victrix stack up alongside these figures?

Wargods' minis are heroic scale. Immortal's hoplites are slightly heroic, but would probably look odd in the same unit. Wargods heroes should work as stand alone units, probably. They blend right in with Reaper minis.

EDIT: It's over 90,000! [/Vegeta]

Automatons unlocked... and then some! Woot

Some lovely images of Helen of Troy and the Hydra up now

They do look nice - especially the Hydra.

For some reason, I really like Hydra models...

Here's the slightly larger version of Helen, with the cerimonial make-up designs as well. Only 3 days to go!

Whyever would that be

It should clear 100K today, then we'll see if it can hit any of the further stretches!

Less than $500 away from $100K!

New stretch goal added at $130k. Harpies!


Was hoping for more sexy and less fuggly. But that is my tastes.

*EDIT* AND $100K!!!

Yep, 100K smashed! Some of these further stretches may actually have a very good chance... I could be tempted by the Hydra, too, although I have no idea what I'd do with it

Put it on the shelf next to my "I am Alpharius" T-shirt, perhaps!

Or have it "wearing" the t-shirt!

Looking at a couple of the other "mid-tier" miniature game KS, can expect about 25% more over the next couple days. So we should get Helen and maybe the Hydra. Would like to see what is planned for the Medusa.

I have a soft spot for poor Medusa - no wonder she is grumpy if everyone keeps visitng her island only to chop her head off............I am hoping for a sympathetic treatment (and gorgeous model)

Would be cool if all three sisters were available. But expect the face to match the image on Athena's shield.

48 hours to go, and just about to pass the 110K stretch (chariot)

Then on to the Amazon cavalry!!!!

Fix'ed that for ya

I'm pretty sure the Amazons and the Automatons will be the stand-outs of the Olympus range.


Maybe the demigods, too, if their retail pricing isn't too burdensome. I could see buying Ares, Hades or Poseidon for $12 or so (after retailer discount) but the rest are going to need Reaper-equivalent prices if they want a chance to win that golden apple.

Amazon Cavalry unlocked!!!

Next stretch goal... Helen of Troy!

Is Helen unlocked at the Fall of Troy (125K) or is she an interim 120K stretch? With more than a day left I think 125K is extremely likely, and hopefully 130K for the Hydra (yesterday's pledge total was over 10K).

Helen unlocks at $125k - only a little over 3k to go! :-)

--Fitz

2K past the 125K unlock of the Gates of Troy! Where's my update!?

18 hours left, Hydra is a shoo-in I think!

Really tempted by that Amazon mounties deal. Hydra could be dangerous as well, has there been a pic of it yet design wise?
