They mentioned running low on funds. Some people are now worrying about whether or not they will be able to complete this campaign.

They will, it'll just probably cause problems for the completion of their next project, but that can always be fixed with another KS.

Selfishly, this makes me feel better. I do think this ks will be fulfilled. I'm certain it will be. At least that's what I'm telling myself. Mr Glutton for Punisment here just gave them another $160. Idiot.

Awww, come on man, after Robotech and Alien versus Predator this thread also needs to get in on the whole "ze sky eez falling!" trend that the others have gone, or are still going through.
Belay my last. I ain't giving them more cash. If they could have said "We're thinking Wave III before spring sometime" I would have dropped $40 or so for some heavy KST troopers, but fething hell...

It's been so long I don't even remember what I pledged for. If I added anything I'd probably double up on something.
I too am worried that they're having a cash flow issues, as an 'all at once' backer I'm getting just a little nervous.

They actually remain about on schedule for what I expected when I pledged.
I also admit I'm not really worried about getting my models. I don't take the money comment as much of a danger, personally, and feel it's being a bit overblown.
Heck, they could always just release their communications guy and save a decent monthly expense that way with no shift in quality of communications

Well, using fresh comments would mean having to spend more time looking through the myriad of KS comments that they've been trying to ignore for the past several months.
As for the last KS update, we pretty much expected them to be running low on funds by this point, given the delays experienced so far and the inability to easily add onto your pledge in the interim.
I'm in two minds, personally, about adding anything extra to my pledge. I could go for some more troops, but given we've not seen them in the flesh yet I'm reluctant to add even more to the pile than what I already have coming.

I will admit I'm mildly of a mind to add on some KS troopers, whom I didn't really get many of, just to functionally give me a first half of my order shipment, as I wasn't close to any drop ship locations.
Honestly I could probably pore through there and find a couple more I'd like now that I've seen more renders.
I'm an addict though.

Well, I decided to be a chump and added Doctor von X and Elektra Eisenstein to my pledge. Dunno when I'll get them, especially seeing as the latter is still on pre-order, but they'll do nicely for my Imperial Navy and Questoris Knight armies. Automatically Appended Next Post: Eh, what the hell, you may point and laugh now, I also decided to get von Stroheim and Madsen, they too will make for excellent Knight Nobles.
I'm doing my part to keep this afloat! Automatically Appended Next Post: Also, to the peeps who already have von Stroheim, could you tell me if the pile of skulls she's perched on, is it attached to her foot or is it a separate piece?

Well I would laugh and point, but I also got tempted to add some troops and a bike to my pledge. What a bunch of masochistic fools we gamers are
As to von Stroheim, the skulls are attached to the foot, with the cloak wrapping round them, so a pain if you want to lose the skulls - probably easier to turn it into a rubble pile with liberal use of sand and bits.

That's a shame and a missed opportunity in my opinion, but yeah, shouldn't be too hard to fix. Automatically Appended Next Post: Also, got this message just now:
Loud'n Raging says:
Please read this message. Important information included:
It has come to our attention that, for various reasons, many backers missed crucial information about the fulfilment of the TGG Kickstarter.
If you haven't, we strongly recommend that you read Updates #97 ( http://bit.ly/Update97) and #95 ( http://bit.ly/update95). To summarise:
Update #97 contains 3 very exclusive Deals for backers.
Deal #1 is that the Pledge Manager has just reopened for just a few days, until December 2.
It is your very last chance to get TGG minis at a super low Kickstarter price.
Many TGG minis are already available. We started shipping them this past summer.
If you haven't received anything else, it is because you have selected Standard Shipping.
You can get the minis faster:
- for no additional cost by joining our Drop Ship programme
- by purchasing 1 or more additional shipping wave
- by using Deal #3 (Update #97).
If you have missed past Updates, please make sure you are subscribed to them, or that they are not landing in your SPAM or Updates folders.
Quick reminder: If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact us on the Live Chat, or send a private KS message, or drop us an email at RagingHeroesTeam@gmail.com. We'll be happy to help.

Eh, naw, I dinnae 'hink so RH. I have two-wave dropshipping, the reason I've not received anything else is your faffing about with what actually constitutes each wave despite me picking stuff that was supposedly only in wave 1 and wave 2.

Similarly, I have 3 wave drop shipping and only had one package. But then, we've only had waves 1 and 1.5 ship so far. Not an actual wave 2 and wave 3 is still somewhere in the distant future.
