Hi Guys, a saw a new Kickstarter that some of you may be interested. The Aegis Hot Zone Military troops, the wild tribe troops and the Patriot troops renders may work out ok, as they appear that they will be multi part plastic miniatures in 28mm.

I hope that links works.

I think the link is working.

"Every turn, each of your models gets a random number of action points that they can to spend to do actions, such as moving, aiming, swinging an ax or shooting a gun. If they end up getting few or no actions, this represents them hesitating in fear. Of course, they could also get several actions, which could mean a sudden burst of courage or rage! The random action point system brings a level of drama and action rarely found in miniatures gaming."
It looks cool, but, I'm not a fan of random action points. That and I'd want to see how the Mega Man game (currently late) shapes up before I take a chance on them. Going to have to pass.

Concept arts look great :)
-
The figures have loads of potential. Although i would love to see one finished first. That would probably get Kore people interested.
-
I agree, I am really interested in the Patriot figures, but would like to see a few of them actually produced before I put any money down.
-
I'm backing specifically because of the Patriot minis, though I really the ones for the Tribe.
-
Good find. The figs look very interesting. The one-year wait doesn't thrill me though. Has MegaMan been fulfilled?
-
Dentatus, I believe that Mega Man is still on pre order.
-
Like has been said, I'd be interested in the Nomad and Tribe minis for use elsewhere. The fluff for the game isn't really my thing though. The cult sort of remind me of that one group of baddies from Stake Land (a bloody fantastic post-apocalyptic movie besides the vampires btw) who worshiped the vampires, but I guess that's a generic enough trope. Something that I'd pick up after the thing hit the shelves more than backing the thing early on (for one I don't like that there isn't much of a range posted on that page yet, but the art's cool).

The discount isn't that great either and then addon shipping to the UK.
I hope it does well and can pick up bits once I can see some shots of physical product. I'm wary of anything rendered as there has been some stinkers released where the detail is pretty poor
-
If I see physical product, I'll go for the Aegis troopers. 'Til then...
