They upgraded the front page graphic with lots of "Free to Battlecry and Beyond" stuff.

However, I think it still might be a little too late for that. Even if they were 25k apart each, that would be 150k minimum in less than 2 hours. We'll say 200k to get that very last unlock.

I'm not saying it's impossible, I saw it happen with Myth. Myth gave more of a warning it was coming though.

Indeed. I did update the front page with the string of bits upgrades. I do hope the last one is more free models instead of bits stuff.

I would agree with that. It seems like they are rushing at the end
to keep up.

And you know I would just loooove to see kung fu minmay. Sadly due to her movie experience there is more of a canon reason to include that one.

I just feel like there are other mecha games that cover the anything goes territory, like battletech.

On the plus side, at least they're still doing goals at 25k intervals roughly. Most kickstarters switch to 50-100k when the pledges hit over a million. We may not be getting alot every 25k but it's a steady dribble with the free models every 100k or so.

edit: and swabby we get our wish... free VF-4s at 1.6. I don't think we'll actually get there but it's nice to see nonetheless.

If we can convince 2000 Battlecry people to go to Showdown for the extra $120, we'll be good.

Bah.. I was holding out hope that we would get last minute Max Sterling kickstarter exclusive goal.

Well we were told flat out that for whatever reason the Cats Eye, Conventional Vehicles and Breetai with an iron bar weren't allowed.

I'm a bit surprised there's no card buildings or other terrain. And I think the Orgus mechs is a bit of a legal gamble but all in all, some nice stuff.

Little disappointed I won't get my unique Max sculpt either, but after watching another truly mis-managed KS campaign falter across the finish line earlier this year, it's nice to watch another that I'm involved in blow up in the last few days.

All told I went in for a Showdown with minimal add ons. Nice to see all the crazy stuff they're teasing, but I'm pretty capped out with that, so if it's badass enough, I'll just have to snag some at retail.

Since so many people were asking I imagine that Max and Miraya VTs were also blocked. I mean making those two would have to be easier than sculpting some brand new mechs.

Of course they could also be on hold for the retail release...

I'm curious to see if Robotech can beat the one day pledge total for zombicide 2 of $449k. That's definitely the highest I've seen for a tabletop game offering. If anyone has any higher ones for a minis/board/tabletop game, feel free to post it. We're already within a few minutes of passing the second highest that I know of (Myth).


Kingdom Death: Monster on it's final day posted 520k, and falls into the criterion outlined above.

Still, this one is looking damned impressive at the finish.

Where are you at? I will be trying to get a couple local players to play. Crawfordsville Indiana for me. I can't remember my log in to alter my location, the computer remembers my password wonderfully though.

I've pitched in $300 and, dammit, I want to throw in more but I can't justify it in the least. Maybe we'll get an amazing mystery backer who'll toss in $200k at the last minute?

They also just announced that the BattleFoam Bag they're offering would fit in the entire model count of the Battle Cry ($140) pledge level in custom trays.

My guess is like Wild West Exodus, it'll likely be a personalized (with the Robotech logo) BF 432 bag.

I'm in with 26 minutes to spare. Been on the fence since I never really watched the show ever, but since a guy in my gaming club is behind a lot of it I felt I had to.. that and it looks fun either way

Kinda fun just watching the page auto refresh and keep climbing
