It's a shame the modular set comes with shields moulded on as that limits their modularity and use as thugs/ Thieves, etc. but indeed they look great and would give a very nice Norse themed wild looking warband. Thanks for the link

Ah should have read further. Thanks for clarifying

In particular should have read this section

"It is my intention to create more Norse themed figures to compliment this warband as funding allows. These plans include 5 semi modular Thugs fitted for universally interchangeable right and left hands and heads, a berserker with two handed axe, a shield maiden, a female ranger, an alternate male ranger, a female wizard and an alternate male wizard. As thee figures are funded they will become items available for selection as add- on rewards."

Sounds really promising

I thought this failed?

He closed the proposed plastics box...and re-opened another wave of metals instead.  Looks like similar sculpts, though not identical.

I missed the fact the others were going to be plastic. Get it now.

They are the same figures though, he's just worked on them more.

You should see three headings in a row, the middle one says "campaign", clicking that gets you to the pictures and descriptions Jennifer

I've been on a number of Tre's projects in the past, and his work is absolutely stunning.

His first project had some issues with fulfilment as he was trying a new material, but since he's returned to metal all his projects have been fulfilled quickly. I've got no hesitation to jump on this one, especially considering the subject matter. Does someone want to flick him an email explaining what figures we need for a Frostgrave band? ;)

I'm in for the Warband & Wolves add-on. Too good to miss, this one  ;).

The WIP pictures of the modular thugs finally made me break down and back this.  I was all in on the first one when it was going to be a modular plastic set but eventually couldn't resist.  I really like Tre's sculpts and the two or 3 I own have all been a joy to paint.

All-in here ( except the t-shirt lol ).
The characters are pretty nice too, so why not? Maybe the succes of this KS will convince Tre he should stop bothering with restic/plastic/trollforge or whatever and simply stick to the good old metal.

Some awesome looking Mini's. Hopefully I can talk myself into pulling the trigger in the next 3 hours.

Bummed I missed out on the berserker shamans - I will hope to get them when put into general release. Congrats to Tre on such a successful Kickstarter!

If they unlocked you can add them in the pledge manager.

Any idea if he's opening this up to those that didn't pledge? I just had a look and was very impressed with the unlocks.

I bumped up my pledge to get the berserker shamans and a pair of bears just at the end. The thug minis should also be super useful

I'll add the Shamans and Bear when the PM opens. Typically Tre, this kickstarter, the man hops from left to right, adding and changing things along the way but in the end he's a great sculptor and the more he releases, the better it is imho ( especially now he's got EU-friendly delivery, thanks to Hasselfree for that ).  :)

I got one of every miniature except for the wolves and the bear; I've still got the wolves from his first Kickstarter, and I already have way more bears than I'll ever need :P

Really looking forward to getting my hands on these minis; they are exactly what I've been looking for.
