Looks fine to me... personally I don't mind softer flowing form for organic designs.

Do you have any prototypes on the vehicles?

Sorry but not yet :( I´m not sure if we can show it before the campaign ends.
Anyway this week you will see the Glorlon Soldier prototype finished and some human soldiers.

And we made another update in the campaign, now we release some terrain as addons:

Not sure... but I think the shipping costs in the pledge levels is out of whack with the stated shipping costs on the main page.

This is from the main page:

Quote
Shipping to European Union is free in all pledge levels.

Shipping to the USA is £5 ($8) in Sergeant and Lieutenant levels, and free in all pledges of Captain level and above.

Shipping to the rest of the world is £10 ($16 - €12) in all pledges except General level.

This is from the pledge level:

Quote
Pledge £135 or more

Commissar - Starter Set, two complete armies (up to 26 miniatures, including two vehicles), 40 cards, 14 dice and a Rulebook PLUS £72 worth of Add-ons of your choice PLUS Stretch Goals achieved. Includes EU and US shipping. Please see main page for international shipping rates. (200 $ - 148 €)

Estimated delivery: Jun 2014

Dunno but the two shipping rates appear to vary drastically and the rates shown on the pledge levels may be putting folks off if they think they have to pay $200 for shipping.

Or am I just an idiot who has a hard time reading for comprehension?

AFAIK the main page is correct, every level at or above Captain is p&p free. The numbers in ( ) are approximate (and I might add optimistic) conversion rates for the £ price.

And I think you might find that there are now more miniatures in the starter too  :D

@Rivers Sorry for the confusion, tnjrp is right, the numbers in bracket are the approximate conversion (at the date the campaign was created) of the £ price.
And a Keeper Nilbog said, now the Starter has 37 miniatures (including tanks)! And for only £1 more a Glorlon Character mini, Lagral scholar of the Second Order.

Ahh...  ;)

However, I think it is rather confusing actually. Perhaps it would have been better to have set up the pledge levels like this:

Quote
Pledge £135 (approx. 200 $ or 148 €) or more

Commissar - Starter Set, two complete armies (up to 26 miniatures, including two vehicles), 40 cards, 14 dice and a Rulebook PLUS £72 worth of Add-ons of your choice PLUS Stretch Goals achieved. Includes EU and US shipping. Please see main page for international shipping rates.

Probably, given that there's been some other posts on other boards where USAnian were complaining about p&p. Which I didn't really get until now. But as I recall you can't really edit the pledge level texts tho so the damage, such as it is, is set in stone.

The fortress kit looks nice. And it's even actually discounted compared to what you'd pay if ordered the same thing directly from Warmill.

We have an agreement with Warmill and the products we offer from them has a 20% discount.

As tnjrp said, once somebody select a reward level we cannot change anything of the description (that´s the reason the Pledge level said the Starter Set has 29 minis when actually has 37)

I've never before seen a KS hit exactly the goal sum before. Happened with this one about 15 or so minutes ago, but then a couple of pledgers suddenly got cold feet and pulled about £200 so it fell below funding level again.

ETA - And now it's over £30,000 the 2nd time today.

Will be interesting to see how long this seesawing will go on o_o

Cool! Coagulations on meeting your goal.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Well, at least it has stayed over the goal for now 8)

Wouldn't bet on this passing the muster for sure tho, it has lost a lot of pledges in a short time before. Pretty sure the core supporter group is fairly well dug in by now so it may not be very likely, but still.

And I have to admit that the new miniatures shown looks better than the previous one  :)
