I thought they already did that?

Oh silly me, here I was thinking they had changed their ways!

BrookM, sorry, but I had to exalt this!

In the meantime, BrookM, you should be ashamed that you missed your chance to inform us that someone took a huge dump on their tumblr page. I mean, they dumped stuff on their tumblr page.

I stopped checking in after those creepy topless dolls.

I'll just check in now aaaaaaaand what the feth is this? What the feth are those? Why the feth are nazis and MacDonalds part of the same holocaust diorama?

That PR guy has stepped into a hell of a job, eh?

Post an old picture to Facebook every other day, repost weird tumblr pics on twitter every so often, couple of Christmas tree pics, anything else?

Doesn't even post in the ks comments section. I certainly hope his wages aren't accounting for an awful lot of that ks money.

I bet he's pouring all his time into that next update, judging by the silence it's going to be an amazing update of delicious proportions..



But whatever, we'll see if I can remember. I keep on forgetting about this one now as of late, amazing!

Worse, I think I might dump my stuff to recoup my "losses." I had high hopes for the digital Adepta Sororitas codex, but I just can't see the fun in making it my main detachment. So I'll just get a few heroines, troop boxes, and sell off the rest.

That tumblr feed makes me think they hired Clothaire Rapaille as their PR guy. (He'd been hired by the city of Quebec to "define and create a vivid image of the modern Quebecer" as a promotional tool. His final report was a bizarre rant on our inadequacies and psychoses, and a press conference that was byzantine in its tangents. Delicious)

Aye, I feel for the peeps who went in for enough to plonk down an army, I'd go mad with anticipation and feral impatience at some point.

It's fine. It just gives me more time to save up the money to get the army professionally painted.

Heh, its giving me time to paint Orks.

Well at least we'll probably have the new guard codex before I have to decide what I want, don't want to go and grab a counts as marbo only to have him disappear from the codex.

And whatever you want to say about this company... they are light years ahead of some others in the ethics department, even if they act like douches sometimes. Go ahead, look at the Defiance thread.

I'll be here patiently waiting for my TGG with a dumb, sobered expression on my face.

Anybody looks good compared to Defiance Games, so it's not that hard.

Someone PM me the short version about Defiance?

At this point there is no short version. Here is the Dakka Discussion thread:
http://dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/558217.page

This one is in this subforum:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/553141.page

tl:dr
Not content with not releasing product, they had a successful KS but rather than do that, they allegedly accepted money from another KS in exchange for tooling and casting work. Allegedly that money is also gone.

Uh... There is some bad news.... You know how it was taking so long to get prints of their 3d sculpts?


RaginShiroz is using Defiance Games for manufacturing!!


Dun-dun DUNNNNNN.



(Not really.)

Have an exalt, good sir!

Seeing as RH actually has prints in hand, they're light years beyond Defiance's capabilities. Not hard to beat a company that's too busy soiling their own name. I'm amazed that DG still qualifies as a "company," and at this point hasn't been classed as a full-blown three ring circus.

I'm still trying to finalize my pledge over at Skykadia...

iPaint, I wouldn't bother with that at this point in time. There are too many unkowns and plenty of time before we get to see Wave 1 nailed down. You know you'll change your mind once you see the next round of shinies.

Right, they better jump to it, chop chop, it's annoying that we still don't know what's in wave one.

Current best guess is all the troops boxes and maybe one each of the Support Weapon teams per faction, along with the previewed Heroines. I'm not expecting much else besides that.

I'm more looking at what I want quantity-wise for factions. I'm leaning heavy on Kurganova right now, with a handful of Jailbirds as flavor filler, with practically no Iron Empire. So most of my purchase may be directly from wave 1, with the remainder being a handful of Heroines and a few support options later down the road.

~iPaint

Since heroes is what they do best, I'd have expected to have seen a lot more of them crop up in Wave 1, to be honest. And for them to bang out the freebies first, get all of those out of the way.

But you know, feth logic, amirite?

Indeed you are. Again, that might be part of the revolutionnary design process they put in place. Who are we plebes to know of such things? G'nite people.

You make it sound like they're making art or something hoity toity.

Philistine! Do you not know fine art when you see it? Now go away and play with your filthy American friends, I am going to smoke cigarettes and drink wine for the next two weeks. It is part of my creative process! [/exaggerated French accent]

How does this wave one thing work? I mean, they're only going to ship once, a single time, when all of the stuff is produced, right?

You can have it shipped in waves to a drop ship location or you can probably pay extra shipping for each wave.

Just, you know, keep your arms down when you're living the good live Claudette, the sight on unshaven pits is giving me bad arthouse movie flashbacks.

Sure, but if you chose neither of those - then all at the same time, at the end?
