I can't remember...the bases for the minis are 30mm for regular folks and 40mm for the big guys, right?

Definitely 30mm for regulars. not sure on the big guys, there was a scale size chart somewhere that included the bases with sizes

Yes, power armor and Supermutants (and other similar models) are on 40mm, as defined in the rulebook. giant models are on 60mm bases as per the rule book.

The last version I downloaded lists 32mm for normal people, but I think that has been corrected to 30mm. If I had my stuff (that I'm totally not looking forward to ) , I would have taken measure of them already. Alas...

I've seen both people who got their orders with and without previous notification. The former might be a slip up and I certainly hope I will know in advance.

To confirm, its 30mm for the human sized figures.

32mm is the scale and I think it got ported into the base size by mistake in a draft.

You know what would be super helpful for planning my purchases? A list of what cards - by title/name - come in each box set.

Also, are the robots, critters, and terrain going to be in the initial retail release with the faction boxes? I'm not seeing them at the online retailers I've checked...

People who preordered via website in the US, is your order coming from OCS in partnership with Game Quest for shipping?

I am assuming yes, as I got a email saying im getting a package, and never got something from them again but wanting to make sure

Robots, Creatures and Scenics are available at retail, but only with retailers who join our direct order scheme. Not everything is commercially viable through distribution due to manufacturing costs, so we had to move some stuff over.

However, rather than make it direct only, we made it available to retailers as part of this scheme. Get your local retailer to get in touch via support@modiphius.com and Cole will get them on board.

As for card lists, I'll add it to the suggestion pile. We have an internal spreadsheet to track everything (well over 1000 cards.... and counting) so there may be a way to make a slimline version available.

GamesQuest are our shipping/packing partner, so unless you have a kickstarter outstanding (they do a lot of logistics for a number of companies) then its most likely us sending you your toys.

So wait, the scenery and wasteland creatures are only available direct from the Modiphius webstore, or through retailers who buy them directly from Modiphius at a lower profit margin?

I'm just curious, because I'm waiting for them to show up for pre-order on my FOLR, and this news sounds like I may be waiting indefinitely...

Buying direct from Modephius may well not be any more expensive than buying from their normal distributor (although they'd have to check)

just more hassle as it would be another place to order from, accounts to keep etc and harder to hit any free shipping thresholds/bonus extras etc

(some local gaming stores are quite prepared to pretend ordering direct is more expensive rather than just less convenient)

I was going to comment that "scheme" might not be the best word for what you guys are doing, but after a quick Google search it looks like scheme doesn't have the same negative connotation in the UK as it does in the US.

Program or plan might be more neutral terms, at least to US eyes.

Heh, English is fun.

How long before all the cards hit the site? Weeks? Months, mostly out of curiosity.

Gameplay looks great from the few videos i have seen. I have just pre-ordered the brotherhood of steel bundle, cant wait to get a game in

Stores can't get some items from distribution, as we can't make them commercially viable if we go that way. As such, you can either order them direct from us, or else get your store to sing up for the programme that lets them order non distro items direct from us.

I'll chase this up. Files were prepared, just need to work out where they are in the sign off/upload queue. I'd say weeks not months... if not days.

Is it possible that cards will be nerfed like lets say the broadsider or mutant hound bite and become obsolete? (not that they are but just as an example) Will updated cards be printed?

In a perfect world, no. But if we are realistic, there may be the odd card that needs a second go.

They will be made free as PDFs on the website, and I have raised the spectre of doing faction card packs as and when if it gets that bad. So far, there isn't anything game breaking, but like any game a few little bugs may have crept through.

Hi Jon
Any news on the larger bundle deliveries? are we still waiting on items or are they now dispatching?

I believe Chris is doing a big email update tonight to let people know where we are with everything.

Excellent thanks, I'll the my "friend" know as I am sure they are excited.

Update on the update which may not be quite as tonight as everybody would like.

Chris Birch on Facebook:

Hi folks, i'm back in the office but waiting on order updates from the warehouse and confirmations of deliveries from our warehouse to give everyone a better picture. It might have to be tomorrow morning so please bear with us. This includes making sure 'it's arriving today' means it actually arrived today. I'll also be including images from the Launch event, and the info on Wave 2 that I gave out.

Ima gonna let it slide as it is still tonight over in america

now i am going to have to keep checking my email while at work though, so I am going to hold Modiphius responsible if I get in trouble

Tell them its Preston, giving you another mission.

I'll try this but i have a sneaky feeling it may make the situation worse - which is typical of Preston being involved in anything

Got my box of stuff yesterday. I didn't open up everything, but a quick look at the starter box models shows them to be pretty good quality. Some thinner parts are a bit bent, but that's workable.

Oh man, the new development update has so many awesome upcoming models...it is almost making me forget that it looks like it will be another couple of weeks till i get my orders delivered

The Co-Op Handbook is really neat! I especially like the scenario where the players' models are connected by a chain under the battlefield!

The mention of an AI Handbook also caught my attention...

Good to see confirmation that they are adding more raider sculpts to remove the duplicates shown in the previous previews.

I put my foot down a bit there

There are six new sculpts, two raiders, two psychos, two scavvers.

They swap gender with the existing sculpts, so you now have a mix of male and female raiders and psychos.

The scavvers are all still male, but have different weapons and heads.

There are some very cool details in there. As soon as they are out of Sign Off, we will be showing them (and getting them off to be painted).

Playtesting on the Raiders wraps up next week, so its in to layout and production, and hopefully we will have a much faster and smoother pre-order and release for wave 2.

this is the best news on raiders....Jon you are now my hero for putting your foot down as raiders felt unloved having so many dupes, I am even going to forgive you for regularly mentioning Preston and triggering me

That's great to hear. I wasn't too thrilled by the duplicates. Fallout is not a mass battle game and really needs its individual sculpts.

One thing I will say about me, is I try to approach what we do as if I was the customer.

This sometimes may annoy others in the office

So, having that many repeated sculpts across what is technically the swarm army felt off for sure.

In a perfect world, there would be no duplicates in the range, but we are still a small company, and have limited resources. AS such, and knowing the cost of sculpts and production, we have to make sensible decisions.

The raiders felt like we could do better for sure though, and I think when you see the new sculpts you will be happy.

I did spoil this on Facebook the other day, so guess I can share here as the boss didn't throw anything at me... yet...
