Any word on when the Nickstarter is opening.
Thanks
-
Today, in the last hour:
http://nstarmagazine.com/FROSTGRAVE_GHOST_ARCHIPELAGO_LOST_COLOSSUS_NICKSTARTER.htm (http://nstarmagazine.com/FROSTGRAVE_GHOST_ARCHIPELAGO_LOST_COLOSSUS_NICKSTARTER.htm)
Snakemen plastics and metals, a couple of new human crew and some monsters.
:)
-
Yes, it starts today.
-
I see some plastic snakemen in my future :D

Me too.

I have to say i'm slightly miffed t the format of this nickstarter,usually I buy the book and extras and that's me, this time i;ve already got the book but it doesn't count as ''getting on board''.
I guess what im asking is, is there any way I could 'make up' the cost as tbh i'm not interested in plastic snakemen but do want to support it/have plenty of metal fg: ga minis that i've been holding off getting that i'd happily buy now to make up the same cost (definitely more than£20 worth).
-
Some nice figures, metal snakemen look much better for me than the plastics. Would be nice to see rest of the models before the end of early bird discount.
Kommando, as You already have the book -is there a need for two hematas ar ancient guardians in new campaign (because of scenario or random encounter table)?
-
The metals certainly do look nice - most of the time only about half of the specialists really stand out, but I basically like all of these. Might go full metal and no plastics, even if I normally love plastic kits and bits, and that's not actually a Nickstarter option!
Worth noting that the first metal warden (albeit classified as a heritor) has a picture on the webstore; it's the one on whom the silhouette for the wardens on the Nickstarter page is based. Hope to see pictures of all before the early bird deadline indeed, one each of a heritor and warden would suffice, but difficult to choose any as it stands!
-
one ancient guardian
Kuba: two hemata, both in the concluding scenario in lost colossus, and as a level three random encounter.
really do need to see photos of the currently silhouetted figures before committing to the nickstarter, and not on FB or whatever exclusively, but here ideally.
-
Although technically not the silhouetted ones, two of the figures so far represented by art have been revealed: the new crew, that is the bosun and topman.

Both Wardens and Heritors now shown:

looking good.
-
I'm liking the first one especially. Not entirely convinced either warden suits my needs, but I suppose the Herbalist woul make a decent (vine) warden as an alternative.
Island troll and Gorgon shown as well now. Both look strangely flat, with superficial detail? Still waiting for the Hemata and Ancient Guardian...

Yeah, I would not be shocked if you had told me either of those was a Ral Partha figure circa 1988...
-
got a feeling the images aren't good, and like the look of them really.
have a lean quality which is quite a nice change in a way.
-
The troll looks ok. Less said about the Gorgon the better. How did she get her t-shirt on?
-
Wouldn't surprise me if it was indeed a photography issue - poor picture with some photshopped contrast/brightness to appear clearer, erasing detail. Current versions wouldn't entice me to order either though!
-
Troll and gorgon are both terrible. Big disappointment. Hopefully they don't rush the sculpts of the remaining monsters like these.
-
I like her tail.. but agree that from the waist up she is disappointing.
-
I don’t play frostgrave but I really like the troll and would buy it for other settings.
-
I also like the troll, I wonder how would it scale up with GW ogre gorger -planned to make a troll using that mini after seeing some nice and simple conversion (swapping the face for GW lizardmen drum). For some instances two trolls could be needed, so it would be perfect if they would look like from the same breed.

Finally:

-
crikey, those are good.
-
:o wow...very nice. I don't care for the guardians sword.. but um...yes.
-
So if I add more stuff to my order, how does the p&p work? Do I get charged twice, or do I get a refund for extra when the NS is over (assuming there is extra)? I paid for the first lot via paypal, not sure if that complicates things.
Final question - when you say "ends Mar 22", what time of day do you mean? I'd like to add to the order tomorrow night, just want to make sure it won't be too late.
Thanks

There are a lot of figures that make this worth while for the GA player!!!!
