I'm a Brigade buyer as well, and nothing "new" seems to show up anywhere. Its frustrating as I have a guess that its some kind of deal on the plastic Soldier sprues, and I would've gladly added those to my order.
The Brigade Games version of the secret code page seems to be the add-on section that is on each level's preorder page. I had a quick look between the two and the only thing that seems to be missing from Brigade Games is a post nickstarter bundle that contains metal cultist versions of the metal soldiers. It doesn't come with the nickstarter and will be sent out later.

And a pain up the a** to format when typing on a mobile phone. Lol.
Currently most played: Silent Death, Mars Code Aurora, Battletech, Warcrow and Infinity.
As long as these aren't exclusive items, I imagine you'll be able to get them later on. An official word would be nice.
Hopefully they're not exclusive.

Also, I'm sure when I ordered the spellcards they were £7.50 a set. They're now showing up as £10 when I go to the addons page.
Anyone know anything about this?
It was an early bird offer, I think if you ordered before 5th October you got a discount on some stuff and free shipping. I managed to place my core order during the early bird and missed it for the add-ons. I believe the free shipping offer remains in effect though if you add other stuff, but you no longer get any new discounted add-ons.
We seem to have slowed down a bit at £34,860 though. I'm really hoping it'll get to £40K. Might need to get that exclusive IX offer too (a new set of cultist characters).
I don't believe any of it is exclusive - it's just a pre-order. One of the previous ones had some exclusives but they were very clearly marked as such.

Nick said that some of the prices, most notably the spellcards were part of an early-bird offer that has since expired.
Everything in the Nickstarter should be available in the future with the possible exception of the Dark Cauldron. A few of the special treasure items from the last Nickstarter have never been made available. This all has as much to do with casting as it does intent. All of the character and monster figures will definitely be available afterwards.
If you've got the code, you can just re-enter it to see the hidden items.

Is that for Northstar backers only, or will BrigadeGames backers have access to this?

For what it is worth, I have had tremendously good customer service from Brigade. More than once now they have added on to, or changed my Nickstarter "level" for me, and let me just pay the differences. They're fast to respond and a real pleasure to deal with.
My wife tells me a large parcel has arrived from North Star. The only thing I'm waiting for from them is the current Nickstarter stuff but isnt it a bit early to receive stuff (ie its still running and the email said hopefully shipping w/c 9th November).I'm at work so can't check what it is... has anyone else received anything?

Come on fella! Don't leave us hanging.
Did you get your Thaw of the Lich Lord stuff early or not?

Sorry, forgot about this! It wasn't the Thaw of the Lich Lord stuff come early, but it was all the stuff from the first Nickstarter as I was in at level 5. So I guess the rest will come in a couple of weeks!
The Nickstarter has ended!!!
Our pre-order program for #frostgrave Thaw of the Lich Lord has ended. A huge thanks to everyone who got involved. The final spend total was £46764.54.
MySpace ? They could probably reach more readers by scrawling messages on the walls of busy rest room stalls.

A massive thank you to everyone who participated.
We now have the hard work of sending out £46K+ worth of orders while trying to run the rest of North Star Laugh
Seriously though, the figures are all ready. We're just waiting for the book, the spell decks and the free cauldrons, and we're ready to start shipping. I would hope it'll be end of next week.
Cheers
Nick

The new book is a campaign of 10 adventures, new soldiers, new monsters, and a new school of magic. It's all optional, and the book will be available end of the month at retail.
I got a box from them today. It was marked "2 of 2". But there was no "1 of 2". The box only had older mini's and books in it.

The Nickstarter was just nice to get free swag.
Thanks, do we have any info on the new school of magic and new soldiers?
The Cultist Sprue doesn't have all the weapon options the Soldiers sprue does.
The soldier sprue has tons of extra weapon options, all of them really, and the sprues are compatible, so the used some of the real estate on the Cultist sprue for more fluffy things, as well as skeleton and zombie conversion bits.

Cool. I think the one next to it might actually be a hand holding arrows. All the open palms look like lefties, but if I can use bits from the soldier sprue I should be alright.
Thanks guys

We have a price and release date for the cultists, 20 UKP and Nov 20
Spoiler:
FGVP02 - Frostgrave Cultists
Released 20th November 2015. Taking pre-orders now.
Death cultists are mortal men and women who have sworn their service to an undead master, usually in the hope of achieving some form of immortality. They normally come from the lowest rung of society and have few useful skills and little combat training. What they lack in ability, however, they make up for in fanaticism and fearlessness in the face of death. When sent out by their masters, death cultists generally conceal their identities behind masks and hoods, but proclaim their allegiances by adorning themselves with bones, chains and other symbols of death.
The Frostgrave Cultists box set contains enough parts to make 20 different figures. There are multiple heads, arms, weapons and accoutrements per frame, no two warbands will ever be the same.
Cultists feature in Thaw of the Lich Lord as opponents in the scenarios and as random encounters. They should also be used as the soldiers for Warbands of evil wizards, especially ones who've embraced Lichdom.
The Cultists have been designed to compliment the Frostgrave Soldiers plastic box set. By that we mean the arms, heads and equipment are interchangeable, giving you even MORE choice to built a unique and personal Warband.
And as an extra bonus, the Cultist plastic frame includes heads and arms to convert your Soldiers or Cultists into skeletons and Zombies. True Frostgrave Undead! Perfect to represent your 'risen from the dead' ex-soldiers.
The plastic figures are 28mm sized, supplied unpainted and require assembly with glue. We recommend you use glue designed for plastic to get the best results.
Check out my gallery here Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!
