Shown here are my 1st couple of Astropolis minis, all from the 1st KS, the current KS is expanding the range.
The minis are typical LAM minis, classic heavy metal minis, shockful of character!
So I just had to get them... ;)
These minis fit IMO every old Rogue Trader GW mini range.

I've backed it but I'd like to see a pledge option for just humans with human stretch goals added as I've no great use for the aliens.

I burnt some midnight oil and painted the 1st two Astropolis II mini!

(http://www.adpublishing.de/assets/images/Navigator_and_Processor_1.jpg)
Lord Navigator and Navigation Processor

"Generally-speaking, the Astropolis follows a Long Plan devised many centuries ago prior to the launch of the ship.
The design of the cosmic engines only allows for minor alterations, with course changes being measured in months rather than minutes. Still, it is necessary to approach systems as the ship comes close to replenish stocks and conduct trade, and these changes are the task of the Lord Navigator.
Using innate psychic abilities, they plot courses for years and decades to come, always in close cooperation with the Chief Quartermaster; the actual calculations are performed by the cyborgs called “Navigation Processors”, who meld the intuitive factors of the human mind with the raw computing power of nanoquant calculating engines."

Great painting, Agis, but I must say that your comments always are on the verge of giving up painting for good!

You indeed finished the last one in one night! Oh my God. I should stop painting... :o  ;)

No, honestly: Ace painting and I regret not having backed this KS.

Awesome paintwork, Agis, the colour scheme works greatly!

In the meantime we unlocked the Kroglogg Noble and revealed the Astrosec Line Corporal :)

I couldn't resist! Missed the first KS, so pledged for a Hyperspeed - which has unlocked the Corporal too!

Yes, you did it, he's unlocked :D Thanks, Karl and guys, appreciate your support!

Actually the Corporal was our very last goal but we decided to give you two additonal tech crates if we reach 18.000 EUR. And we are not that far from the this goal being unlocked with about 7 hours left.

On the one hand, I want the Hyperspeed deal just for completeness.  On the other, I've bought so much Ground Zero Games stuff over the years that it feels wrong not to back at Full Thrust level.  Choices, choices.

And the Astropolis II Kickstarter is offically over! Thanks very much to all of you who supported this project, we much appreciated it and are looking forward to deliver your rewards as soon as possible. And be sure, you will see more of the Astropolis crew in our future campaigns.

Congratulations! It was a very nice experience to have been part of this, and now I can't wait to see the final models.

The idea is brilliant and I'm already now anxious to see MOARE in the next KS! :)
