Title: Last orders! New Bushido faction - the Ito clan [Crowd funded, stretch goals]
Post by: Henrix on May 06, 2012, 10:22:23 PM
Oooh, it looks like Bushido (http://www.bushido-thegame.com/) will be getting a new faction, the Ito clan of snake-infested samurai!

Their fundraiser (http://www.indiegogo.com/bushido?c=home) has met it's goal after just few days.

And it seems it'll grow even faster now.
The campaign has passed the mark, almost thrice as much money now, and the stretch goals are coming in.

Right now another figure, Itsunagi, probably a more human samurai, will appear at the same time as the starter, and if they get a little more money we'll have it for free, and yet another figure will be launched.

But there are still many days to go, so much more might well happen.

Really looking forward to how the game and the miniature range will grow! I've tested the game and enjoyed it a lot. Easy basic mechanics, with the finesse being in the interplay of the models on the field. And nice looking models as well!

Well, just $59 left to reach the first stretch goal!

When that is reached you get an Ito starter (five figures), an extra copy of a figure from it, and yet another mini (Itsunagi), for $50.

That is if nothing more appears through another stretch goal, of course. Still 22 days to go.  :)

Closing in on the next goal, at which time you'll get 12-15 models, from two factions, for $100 (all of it with free shipping).

Not much left till it reaches 20 000.

More artwork up. Here's Satoshi, the latest figure past the starter to be released at the same time.

Itsunagi was the first of the 'extra' figures, and all who opt to get the starter get him for free. He's the poisonous villain in the story The Awakening (http://bushido-thegame.com/pages/tales-jwar-isles)[/u]:

Ito Ayuko will be released at the same time, and a pretty snake lady she is.

Yeah, to be quite honest that picture isn't my favourite, and I hope he looses a few when he is finished.
So far he doesn't seem to have such an abundance of blades:

It seems I missed posting the picture of Ayako earlier. Here she is:

We have also reached the $20 000 goal, which means that Satoshi is free for everyone doing the $100 contribution, unless you prefer the special faction dice.

So, $50 gets you the starter (five models), some artwork, and Itsunagi.

$100 will get you the above, some special nice stat cards, another starter and figure (presumably from another faction), as well as Satoshi or a set of dice - all in all some 12-15 models.

(World wide shipping included.)

And if, or rather when, seeing that it's already past 21 200, it reaches 25 000, Akimoto, who seems to be a cobra-human taiko drummer, will also be included.

And there it goes past $25 000! Free Akimotos all around!

Just a couple of days to go - don't think it'll go much higher, but it's a very good deal, and a damned lot of work for the guys at GCT!

Well, there's the last stretch goal, with only 44 hours left now.
