Hyperactive Nymune Organ Adaptation

The Kroot gains the Nimble Trait, granting Talented (Contortionist) & Talented (Sleight of hand). They also get a 1d10 bonus to their Agility.

$45,000 in two hours? Is it possible? o.O

There's a few models I like, but too few I'd be better off buying retail for less shipping. Then I see what fits in with my deadzone rebels

Can we focus on getting solidly past 675k first?

Ask Alpharius, Hulksmash, cincydooley and Buzzsaw

Edit: Oh, I thought you were talking about the last 2 hours making 45,000 $

Hmm... Apparently all the Eminence EB pledges are filled. Was wondering if that was going to happen or not.

They should add some more pledge levels for people with 10k in their pockets

If only I had that kind of money for this!

I think that 720k freebie isn't going to happen. My guess, it ends just shy of 700k. But we'll see.

So we can hope with almost 2k buffer zone Natasha is locked in, no interest whatsoever to the IE character the JB hacker is funny, but I still think its a bridge too far, 43k in 116 minutes....

I'll settle for hitting the cyberzombies stretch goal.

*puts on straight face*

They're obviously in damage control.

The hacker is interesting, but unless we get unlocks for post-campaign Paypal pledge increases, I don't think we'll get her. Not even really interested in the cyber zombies or the IE officer. Really, I just want more upgrades at this point.

Sigh last update was for the 648 streachgoal, last frontpage editing was for 665k streachgoal what are they waiting to communicate?

Well, I don't care about the hacker so much myself so eh. I wanted Nurse Karoline though; that's a pretty neat model.

As of the last update, they were headed out to get breakfast.

Horrible thought: wouldn't it suck if, like, all of them got hit by a runaway van or something on the walk back?

Ditto. She looks pretty good. Glad that one is unlocked.

They posted a roadmap of what would be unlocked and when going up to $720k - what precisely should they be posting? What communication is required?

Yeah, I had to have one of the medics. It was a hard choice, but Dr. Von X won out in the end.

You shut your mouth, Jimsolo! You shut it and never open it again!

Careful Ouze. Most of the people here want second-to-second updates on everything they're doing.

It's the Free Upgrade sections. Prior to the breakfast break, they were keeping people up to date on which characters were getting what upgrades. One of the upgrades has gone by now without anyone know what is getting added to who, and another is coming up. I think that might be what he meant.

Oh, I see. Thanks.

EDIT: and, there it is. (ninja'd, below)

ow Unlocked:

You did it! You did it! All 4 Female Werewolves are now unlocked! You can now add Zagrath , Sheera, Vankaree and Reyha to your pledge selection.

And in case you wondered why we went from 3 to 4 Wereshewolves, yes, blame it on the Concept Artist and the Art Director. The two of them did such great work together, none of us could decide which one to remove

At $675,000 - Freebie: Natasha, Com Operator, is also unlocked, bringing the total of freebies added to your pledge to 14.

Get this: All pledges at LIEUTENANT BOX level and above now have a set of 14 Freebies worth $222 at retail, and $149 if you pick them up as Add-ons during the Kickstarter! Swweeeet!

What's in the next Free Upgrades?

Well, as we wrote here, the Free Upgrades were listed as place holders: we were still compiling the final list when we prepared the road map, but we wanted to make sure to unlock all Free upgrades before the end.

We did that by actually batching several of them together to ensure their unlock, so that worked out just fine for everyone!

Less than two hours left to unlock...

At $700,000 - Uber-Stretch Goal: Unit of Cyberzombies


We unfortunately don't have a very clear image to show you for this unit.
Nevertherless, as you've already seen the Cyberzombies #42 and W101, you already do have a pretty good idea of what the unit will look like.

But rest assured that we will of course be sharing images of the work-in-progress with you as we work on them.

At $710,000 – Freebie: Freya Pain-Sec, Iron Empire Officer

At $720,000 - Freebie: Zab the Hacker, Jailbird Cyber Pirate

Well to be honest I was fine with Karoline, but Natasha when revealed was quite good, so I would like to see her in, Zab is not that interesting to me but I love the idea of a homage miniature to somebody that helped them in the past.

Overall with communication, proportions, discrepancy between art and wip sculpts and attitude on some times, I have lost quite a huge part of my enthusiasm about it, I really hope, because I selected non heroes they will stay true in their commitment on making them same proportions as the heroes and as close to concept art as possible, else I am in for a huge disappointment.

Wasn't damage control the first few weeks?

I am going for the complete M*A*S*H team including Yagas and embalmer. The others are waiting at the container :





That's why I am loocking forward to the Cyberzombie unit.

I will explain you the email you get for "YaY we reached that", is not a reminder for somebody who constantly watches, but for those that do not and might be intrigued once a certain critical mass is reached or for those that thought "meh we will never reach that".

It creates interest, momentum and flow, something RH failed to grasp even now. look at the last update you unlocked 14 freebies, we don't know what but you did! .... really?

I did my part. The rest is up to you guys.

I will take the challenge

Final day still needs 17k to equal the day before that (and both together are a farcry of the first day), if that is the "end rush" most kickstarters have then most kickstarters we have backed would be nothing.

They failed to capitalize on the initial momentum, they failed to keep it flowing with communication, they failed to make it good enough for people to jump in like mad, the moves of the last few days should have happened two weeks ago, is 700k, if they reach it, a success? I guess its in the eyes of the beholder, in my opinion this could have easily gone for far more if they had run it properly.
