I really do want more human Jutes.

And bug Jutes too!

MIGHTY MONSTERS PART DEUX is NOW LIVE!

...and already at £4,321 of a £2,500 initial goal.

And, as a surprise to no one, I want all of the four units currently listed!!!

Are the Leiptrolls smaller than the regular Norse Trolls? I thought they said during Metal Age that the Trolls were too big to be done in metal? I ordered the Metal Age Norse warband and I thought Mierce said the troll was going to still be resin to save weight and cost. If the regular trolls are going to be available in metal I need to buy more.

If I had to guess, and it is only a guess, fluff wise the fact that they're magic users means that they're smaller, and they're on 40mm bases rather than the standard 60mm for punchy trolls, so definitely not as large.

Mierce have hinted that they're half-trolls

Half troll and half what else though?

That conjures up not the most pleasant of pictures in my head as to how that occurs...

Hey, we've all been drunk and done things (and people, or, in this case... things?) we regretted later

"Aww man, last night I thought I was going home with this hot girl and 3 of her friends. This morning it turns out it was just the one girl. Makes a mean danish and cup of coffee though."

Wow, that funded really quickly! I had thought people would be tapped out, apparently not . Hope the Boar makes an appearance!

Yes, we know you do...

I had promised myself that I would avoid Mierce Kickstarters until the missing unit from my Metal Age Kickstarter arrived.

Well OF COURSE they turned up this morning *sigh*

Ha!

I haven't gotten anything from METAL AGE yet - I'm jealous!

Well you're welcome to help me pin the weapon arms onto a couple of dozen Gabrax while you wait...

If I lived near you, I would - but as I don't, I'll just wish you the best of luck with that!

This campaign is doing very well - it looks as if the original one had lasted maybe a week longer, all would have been unlocked there?

But the good news is that we're getting even more new stuff here - including those Bronze Hounds, which are almost unlocked!

Much prettys. Shame us Scions Of Baalor have only got the Mammoth so far, and if I could afford that I'd have already bought it!

The price we pay for having what is probably the best fleshed out faction I gues.. :(

We had Conand's fishy fellow's. Hopefully, the Ograx and the Mallax will make an appearance if funding continues. Also, Armoured Tarvax, Srónacxv and Mammax were mentioned as candidates.

It was worth a try I'm sure it won't need more than the usual amount of swearing and glued fingers...

The Bronze Hounds caught my eye as well, and I have a really inexplicable urge to paint up some Bog Beasts.

May need a big beast to go with those Gabrax - pretty sure my wife would describe me as a Lumbering Mallox anyway...

You won't be disappointed:



Left to right: Duguth, Jute Wiht Thain, Ætulla, Wihtgar, Maagaan. Maagaan is a massive model, but then again, he's supposed to be 2m/7' tall. But, the skellies are perfectly in scale with the rest. Got these Jutes yesterday along with a bunch of Erainn. They're incredible and I can't tell any loss of detail when compared to the resins.

Damn, those do look great.

I have no idea what my shipping situation is right now. I think I've paid for 2, but I don't know what that means anymore.

I did get my rulebook last week! Just in time for us to finish the basement and not be able to touch any hobby stuff for two months.

Giant Crab Beast and Big Crab Men - good stuff!

I do hope the Mallax make it in - that is the Sloth Men, right?

Yep, I wouldn't be able to resist the slothy Mallax.

I keep trying to stay with just 2 factions but there's too many awesome things.

I use to Norse and Brythoniaid, Norse and Formoric. Then it moved to Albiann, Brythoniaid and Formoric and not it's Albiann, Jutes and Formoric. That's not even including all the things I get just because it's cool.

Long waited for and now he oinks into view:

The good old Wildschwein.

I trust RiTides put in the extra £45 already?

Love the text on that one!

...is a Feral Monstrous Beast of tusk and spike and bad breath.

Putting it in now

Awesome!!

Just got the dispatch notice for my Metal Age guys. Very excited!

I got mine for quite some time
That time Ysians were first.

LOVE THEM. Casts are 9.5/10. Superb. Only some super expensive resin casts were better.

Odd that the next stretch goal is £5K away, so I suspect something will show up at around £12.5K soon...

Some 'Host Champion' Concept art:

Anglecynn Berenulf


NOTE: Mierce looks to have moved away from "Angelcynn" to "Anglecynn" now. Not sure when it happened though!

Norse Steinn the Bold

Those champions look very cool

The Byzantii one is supposed to be some sort of gladiator!


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Well, this is intriguing:

At £12,500 we'll probably give you the Afanc, for the Brythoniaid...

Dispatch notice came in today. Woo woo!

Friends who have the book already said there's only 11 pages of fluff in the rulebook, which is a bit disappointing. Was hoping for a bit more to sink my teeth into. I suppose that will all be in Savage Hordes, but does anybody have any idea of when that is slated for release?
