Subject: [KICKSTARTER] MenhirGames: Dark Age Outpost plastic Kit: $51K-426% funded - VIKING HOVEL renders
The value is good! i admit that when we were at 24K we had "alarm numbers" not loss, but yes very in the red line, but since we did not offered more significant freebies (only to the really high pledge levels backers) and we separated,/made the breach between SGs higher, we are pretty well!
However, i will quote a comment i made regarding the credtis, that makes people think "its to good to be real":
simplier is: that "credit" is not credit that comes from nowhere, they are the value of the miniatures freebies SGs, that we allowed to be exchanged by more plastic stuff.
so, if in the first place the miniatures FREEBIES were calculated, it means that by changing them by plastic stuff would be as if the freebies originally were plastic and no metal.. its the same "calculated money"; but in plastic, rather than metal.
and not to mention that plastic production is cheaper than metal cast, of course.

I backed this at the Gold level, which seems to be the sweet spot. I'm looking to swap the minis for a Hovel kit and the complete Round wall kit, which will give me decent table full of terrain, and enough walls to last my life.

I'm at Silver and thinking of going Gold. If you trade in the metal figures that's $18 extra credit on a pledge that costs $20 more, so you effectively pay only $2 (and $4 extra shipping if international) for all the extra plastic that Gold has above Silver. No-brainer.
I can make hovels myself easily enough, so most of my credit will go towards extra palisades and furniture.

As tempting as the round wall set is, I'm thinking I'm going almost all hovels with my trade ins.
That gives me a good 6 buidlings to toss on the table which is more than adequate for any village scenarios we may have come up in Song of Blades & Heroes.
I'm going to have to get a few more industry kits just to have all the extra tables and fences.
Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!
Since the walls are all free-standing you can make a circle with straights anyway (as long as you don't want to put the shooting platforms everywhere), the round walls are just slightly angled.

Hm... I might be able to go in on this after all. I'm not sure whether I'm better off getting 2x Gold or 1x Merchant (with trade-ins for more terrain) as it doesn't seem 100% clear on what each includes with all the SGs...
I pulled money from elsewhere (other, less inspiring campaigns) to go double gold on this. Now to hoping that it ships and arrives before June 2017, because we ain't going to have it in March.
Hoping for more of a SWM than a G&G experience here at least...

now its matter of having , in the next 2 week, all pieces 3Dprinted and send them to mould
