Just a quick question - is Steve Gallacci directly involved in the project? And if so, will there be stretch goals for the comics?

Sally 4th has a license from Steve Gallacci to develop a miniatures game based on Albedo.
Steve has agreed to develop some new artwork that will feature in the rule book and campaign source book.
We have many, many ideas for taking this game forward. Albedo is 'hard sci-fi' with a rich and unique background.

The miniatures range are multi-part, top quality digital sculpts, with the sculpts we have to date we can make at least 125 different miniatures. We have the first 20 stretch goals defined for the campaign which will increase the possibilities dramatically. We do have some ideas for new comics / story, if the game reaches it's potential... so watch this space.

Good news then. Thanks for the update! And if don't mind revealing just another bit...what vehicles are you aiming for? Those scouts vehicles with big wheels and aerodynes for instance?  ;)

We are starting off with APC's & Tanks, but as long as we get enough gamers buying in to the system will make all vehicles from Albedo universe.

Oh WoW. Loved the Albedo comics. Saving up for this now.
Great incentive to finish those Aerodynes I started.

Wow. Here's something I wasn't expecting to see.
This should solve my lack of vehicles spectacularly.  :D

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm spreading the word on various Facebook groups. Hope the KS is a success!  :)

Just recently received first batch of test casts and painted up some troops from the aggressive, expansionist and very capitalist Independent Lapine Republic (ILR).

Very unusual to see female ILR in front line position, but here we have an ILR Intel Officer briefing troops in forward position.

Various EDF and Home Guard Infantry moving up past some of the new Sci-Fi buildings that are coming out as part of the ACP164 range.

Very cool.  I remembering reading some off these in the early 90s.  Sounds interesting.  At the very least I could get some PA cats to rule the wastes of TNT.
