Their poses make more sense if you imagine a gymaholic posing for a selfie. The lower back leans back to thrust up the abs, but the upper back is more or less straight, with maybe a little slouch to emphasize the pecs. Look at how all the MERCS minis are posed. Or google John Basedow and look for his more indulgent infomercial photos.
The enforcers aren't just going to kill you. They're going to look good while they do it.

Peacekeepers seem a cross between the Enforcer Captain and regular enforcers. Big still compared to many infantry as they are also transhumans but well, they fit scale wise better than SM which instead of Space Marines, may be relegated to Sontaran Marines

The peacekeepers are the bee's cyberknees. I hope there's a good deal on them down the line.

Hi guys,
Does anyone here have sarah clark's email handy? I need to register a change of address with Mantic. If there's another contact that I should use, I'd appreciate that, too.

Thanks, Bob. Actually, the last time I emailed Sarah my email never made it through I got the following message from the gmail "mailer-daemon":
"Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
sarah.clark@mantic.com"
I thought perhaps I had her email address wrong somehow, which was why I asked after it here. Anyhow, I've now emailed Stewart.

That's because that's not her email.

I know I have her email correct because she was responsive at one time. Deadzone inquiries seem really backed up, though.

The manifest sent with the package actually says to message them on Kickstarter! And I at least got a reply within a few days from there. But my Mars Attacks missing parts did show up a couple of days ago, and that was entirely from a 'missing parts form' with no communication.

I got my missing item from the Mars Attacks KS at the weekend, a Martian Standard Bearer. My Deadzone Wave 3 also arrived all in order and correct. The peacekeepers are lovely, very pleased i decided to get 20 of them for a future Warpath/psudo-Terminator 40K army.

I can't speak for his experience, but my own experience on the other end of CS is that it is probably user error.

Well, I emailed Sarah about the Missing MA stuff quite a while ago and received a response. Everything looked to be in order except that the missing item is still missing. Then I used that form for my DZ missing stuff and asked how the MA stuff was going. No response. So I asked Sarah again. no response. Then again. We are talking over a couple of months with a Primarchs breathing down my neck here. I'm sure they're busy and all, but I feel a bit too much like Captain Needa over here.

/shrug. I, again, can't speak for your experience. Although I'd check your junk folder and which address you are responding to.  I'd also note that I have had a month or so between replies at times. They're backed up.

Got a wave 3 shipment. Missing a bunch of stuff but box does say 1 of 2 on it so I will wait a week before sending anything out.
Strangely I got a mini Kings of war rulebook thrown in. Neat I suppose.
I also did a quick base count and I think the reason there was the mass error for peacekeeper bases is they shipped small bases for them instead.

I used the forms provided and the form from mantic and I still haven't heard back and that is from missing/ damaged parts from the original dreadball....
I am wondering if I am too patient with them?

Yes, I'd say you are!
You should absolutely contact them through the emails earlier in this thread AND via the Kickstarter system!

Yeah, Mantic's CS is pretty much inexcusable. It is the worst aspect of an otherwise good company.
Ticketing systems like what Warlord moved to (and gasp, their CS improved by several orders of magnitude) are not expensive.

I thought I had her address wrong, Pretre; thanks for the clarification.
I didn't use the missing items form in this case because I wasn't reporting a missing item, just a change of address. I guess it might have worked fine anyway, but I didn't want to confuse things.
Luke took care of it, all is well.

My Mars Attacks missing bits turned up today, unannounced.
Judging from what I received, the terrain in the "Freebies" baggie does not count towards any terrain we've pledged for (Escalation, for example) as I now have the full amount I pledged for plus that extra set.
