YES!!!!  ;D

From the Crocodile Games site:

Things have been a little quiet here on the Croc page for last few months, as we have been working behind-the-scenes on something big: the WarGods Kickstarter!

We are putting the final touches to a Kickstarter project that will launch at the beginning of June and run throughout that month. The goal will be to fund the production and printing of the WarGods of Olympus rulebook, and to get the latest miniatures into production, including new Demigods, Trojans, Amazons -- and possibly much more if the campaign is successful!

And I should add that Fitz showed me their book of concept art at one of the conventions and there are potentially some kickass figures coming down the pipes!  8)

Not a fan of the stupidly wide sword but those Trojans are very nice.

I'm going to try to get in on this one too! My only other KS experience w/ Red Box was less than satisfactory, but I'm going to try again!

I had the same thought but after some googleling I found some pictures:

weapons of the Trojan wars


ceremonial sword


The sword seems to have the right profile; looks like the sword in the last picture.

Can't say that I like the sword particularly, but like the kilts and the peltast helmets

I personally think that these look very nice!  A good mix of historic accuracy and heroic size/ Hollywood going on.  I may keep an eye on this line just for things to paint....

Are there additional WIP or concept pictures somewhere?

Cheers,

I've already earmarked a good chunk of this years war chest for this. Croc games doing Amazons sounds brilliant!

It'd be great to resurrect some interest in the game too (I've got 2 1000point painted Aegyptus armies that I've never used :()

Croc has been sending out a single Trojan spearman with some of their orders of late.   I got one in an order last week, it looks nice and was fun to paint.
