Thanks mate! It was a real epiphany for me to look again to those great illustration....probably I'm going to pledge (wallet crying "no! please, noooo!!"). Let's see if I can bring in some friends to share a bigger pledge...

Everasseur is a hugely crap name. How about something suggesting heavy armour. Katafraktasseur? Klibanasseur? Hoplite? Phalangite?

While I'm tempted, the KS still feels a bit "meh" with what you get for 54 quid :( A box and a book. Surely great. But after being spoiled by Reapers KS (really bad comparison, I know), I still want more juice for that amount of money. I know that I'd probably save 20 quid or so on the set. But in my mind that's just like waiting for any internet shop to give some good ol' discounts.
Me want more!

Design is finished, now just got to work out what pose works best. Feel free to post your opinion. 




How about walking, pointing downwards front right with right arm, looking in pointing direction, left leg in front, left arm down side slighty back as would be natural to keep balance while walking.

Cybertronic is silent, emotionless and cool.

Unfortunately Prodos Games cannot afford to sell the products any cheaper than they already are. This is down to a variety of costs and remember they are setting up a brand new company, all the costs are coming out of their own pockets (licensing, production, design, concepts, writing, packaging, etc) so they have to sell the stuff and still make money from it. The difference with this Kickstarter to many others is that it actually is a crowdfunding project to help make releases come faster. They could have done all this without Kickstarter, but would have lost out on releasing stuff as quickly and also without the advertisement it has led to. :)

So we are all used to saving loads and loads on KS now, but Prodos promises good products, good customer service and still a good, honest discount that will not bankrupt the project before it has begun!  :)

Anywho, Prodos reached 45,000 today, which means each Starter Box will include special dice and the Limited Edition Gear Cards freebie has been unlocked!

10 cards per model? I though this was a D20 mechanic game, not some "wyrd" card mechanic one... o_o

---

Everasseur is a hugely crap name
Not fond of the model either. Doesn't even seem to me to fit with the rest of the Cybs. Well, maybe I could push it onto somebody to use as WARMACHINE 'jack conversion fodder...

I must admit 10 cards per model seems a tad much. I would have thought for simplicities sake something like three would have been easier to game and not require tons of cards...

If some are equipment or whatnot surely it would be easier just to put it in their rules, likewise special abilities would quite easily work without the need for cards too and it would drive down your costs per figure if you didn't have to print all of them!

I think you get several options and weapon loadouts for all heros, to add some diversity, random element and choice.

I really like what I see so far and I am seriously considering to bump my pledge up to Dark Legion level.
 8)

The card game mechanics are however not so much to my liking.
I can live with a good integration of cards as far as game play is concerned - Incursion is a good example IMO!
What is totally anathema for me is laying cards on the table! As soon as the gaming table has to be cluttered with cards I am too far away from mini gaming and too close to card gaming.
I really hope that most cards we be used to give effects, load outs etc but do not have to be laid on the table.

cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - https://www.adpublishing.de

I'm pretty sure that will be changing.

I hadn't seen that rule before in any of our playtests, so I think Jarek may have put it in the video to see how people feel. I am in the 'area effect' place a counter area rather than having a card on the table to break the feeling of a battlefield.

This miniature is not quite finished, but almost there. You can build it in all 3 ways (and more). The kit will come with spare arms and 2 head options!
