American War of Independence 28mm Miniatures RangeFor the last year, I have been discussing with my Brigade Games convention crew adding a 28mm American War of Independence (Revolutionary War to many Americans) range. I mentioned the idea to Paul Hicks, my main sculptor for Brigade Games, shortly thereafter. The project planning started in November 2018. As you can see with the first 14 packs (84 miniatures so far), Paul has done an exquisite job sculpting these miniatures.
Our intention is to not only fully fund, but to get through a bunch of stretch-goals to add even more miniatures to the start of this range. Paul and I would like to make a bunch more packs for the start of this range during this Kickstarter, so "Join, Or Die."
The Range so far...The British are in the 1768 Warrant clothing.
The packs in the core beginning of the range are as follows:
American Militia – marching 1
American Militia – skirmishing 1
American Militia – skirmishing 2
American Militia – advancing 1
British Battalion Company – marching 1
British Battalion Company – firing 1
British Battalion Company – charge bayonets 1
British Grenadiers – marching 1
British Grenadiers – firing 1
British Grenadiers – charge bayonets 1
Stretch-Goals$11,500 USD – American Militia Command 1
(achieved)$13,500 USD – British Battalion Company Command 1
$16,000 USD – American Militia Command 2 (Free with 1 Rewards Token)
$19,000 USD – British Battalion Company Command 2 (Free with 1 Rewards Token)
Additional stretch-goals will be added as we get through the funding goal, starting with the British Light Infantry.
This is a 30-day campaign.

About Brigade Games Ranges
The miniatures are sculpted by Paul Hicks, who has become a master of his craft. I have been working with Paul for longer than both of us want to admit. Paul is my main sculptor, and has done the sculpting of a majority of my ranges including Napoleonic, 1812, King Philips War, Western, Pacific War, Pirates, Musketeers, Gladiators, Atomic Cafe, etc. Molding and casting is being done in the U.S.A.
Why Kickstarter?
With over 46 ranges to date under our belt in the Brigade Games brand, why go the Kickstarter route?
With Kickstarter, we have the ability to get the product to market very quickly with the help of the crowdfunding model. Kickstarter will also allow me to show off and reach many more potential gamers than I could do with traditional advertising and marketing. Kickstarter will allow us to get these wonderful miniatures into the hands of more gamers faster than we have been able to do in the past with normal marketing.
We have hosted four successful Kickstarters, three with miniatures and one rulebook, that were successfully funded.
