Been really busy getting all the photos for the rulebook together...a side effect of this is that I've had to get together some more sculpts in a hurry. The new stuff looks great and soon I'll post some pix...So for for baddies there are the cultists, fishmen, a formless thing, a werewolf and two scrawny ones. Super excited about these figs, hope you guys will be as well! More when I know more... ;)
-
Pictures always excite me more ;).
-
:D
Do not hurry too much - the quality must be preserved!! o_o
-
Hehehehe.I'm getting excited about this.Must increase my medication...especially with the Festive season almost upon us too. lol

Thanx all...hope to allow you all to buy 'em in the new year. :) Until then you must take my word that all is going according to plan, or better. Got some more great figs on the way, cool promo stuff in the works and the rule book with pix looks fantastic!
...but you knew I'd say that... ;) ;D :D
:P

Zombies for pulp gaming ;D :-* 8) :o
-
Everything about the game looks great so far. Any updates on the ruleset? The preview looks great and very professional!
Still, after reading the threads on it, it's looking like it wont be ready in time for Christmas, right?
-
Zombies too!!!!!! Better have a lie down now...this is all getting a bit too much for me.... lol

You are correct Hugomf, the rulebook and miniatures will not be released until early (?) 2009. The rulebook is getting polished up and should be ready for a good last read thru by the end of December...fix mistakes, add more pictures, change poorly worded text, that sort of thing. With any luck it will be off and running by mid March. That is not to say it will, just that it could be.
I will try and keep you guys posted...just be patient and keep repeating to yourselves, "It's only a game...It's only a game..."
-
The most important thing is that everything looks and feels polished and professional upon release. Thanks for the update, glad to know its still coming along :D
-
Good to hear about those zombies. Make some Russian ones too though, please? ;D

Hrrrrmmmfff..... >:( ;)

Where miniatures are involved, it's never 'only a game'. It's part of the hobby, and, remember, you told us about this yourself >:D

Yeah, with this being basically a garage project, we're doing everything we can to make it look really good. We've all seen those generic staple bound rules sets. We want full colour in your face, with high production values. We want it to stand out.
-
And it should stand out! Good luck, I'm waiting forward to seeing the thing :).

I must warn you, that I have a cunning sceme laid out for 2009:
I shall do a log of acquired vs painted minis with a running balance that should be positive in the favour of the painted side at all times.... Will seriously hamper my money-spending, I think.... :-I

On the danish warmachine/hordes forums they run something called a "pledge" - it almost what you describe. Only a slight twist:
You total up your painted and bought... but painted counts 0,5 and bought counts 1. So you have to paint two minis every time you buy 1 to keep your pledge score 0. :D

So woddoyoudo when you haven't got minis left?? At some point you can only get a negative score... lol
I immediately shall adopt this idea, but painted will count .75 the first year. Otherwise it would be utopian for me to keep a positive score.... ;)
I'll do the one on one comparison in size sub-categories (Normal Infantry, Cavalry, Large Monster, Small Vehicle, etc.), and then have a 'Total Pledge'.

Idea is that everyone has a mountain of lead.. so you won't run dry and have to buy new stuff to keep it from going negative!
Ok I'm with you on the pledge. I'll add it to my profile.-- as soon as I've secured two tickets to AC/DC... in 5 minutes!

Use the spyglass ones when they get released by their new owner, be spot on.

Please, tell me more..

I would like to know more about these Spyglass zombies as well. But for now I'll talk about my zombies instead. They will come in a pack of three. Zombie Bride: lookin' dead, holding flowers. Zombie Dad: reaching out, holding in guts. And the everpopular Zombie Priest: holding an arm, brains leaking out. I think they look great...no pix for a while as I'm busy trying to get the first few releases ready for sale. Looking at them now I wish I had some zombie cub scouts...we will see... ;D
