From the latest Campaign Update:

INCOMING!

Here comes our biggest campaign update to date!

First of all, we’d just like to say thankyou for your continued support, without your financial backing this project would have failed at the first hurdle, and for that vote of confidence we can only be grateful.

Well, I suppose we could send you some toy soldiers, too…

Speaking of toy soldiers, here are our latest Product Additions, all of which are now available as Pledges:

Product Addition: Lancastrian Medium Bomber
They have a length of 7.3cm, and a wingspan of 9.1cm.

Product Addition: Beast Class Superheavy Mobile Bastion
They have a length of 6.1cm, and come with multiple configuration options of Transport, Laser Cannon, and Macro-Howitzer.

Product Addition: Heavy Guns Set
This set will contain two Infantry and IFV plastic sprues, 22x plastic bases, four Braveheart Artillery upgrades, two Alien Laser Cannons, and two Alien Macro-Howitzers.

All in all, a huge update, I think you’d have to agree!

As a final little tidbit, we’ve attached concept art for the “Ultimate” version of the Alien half of the plastic sprue. If we get enough funding, we’d like to add the extra sculpts and poses that can be seen on this sample sprue layout… indeed, we could think up a few more sculpt types we’d like to add too!

As ever, the final variety of figures found on the plastic Infantry & Vehicles sprue will be dependent on the level of funding we receive in this crowdfunding campaign.

Thanks for your time, your consideration, and your continued support.

- The Team @ Troublemaker Games





2x Lancastrians for £18



2x Beast Class Superheavies for £16 (includes one of each superheavy weapon type)





4x Braveheart artillery, 2x Laser Cannon Flatbeds, 2x Macro-Howitzer Flatbeds, and 22x bases of plastic infantry, for £22

Interesting stuff but the beast tank thingy would look better if the gun was mounted in the rear rather than just stuck on top of the cab...

Its been designed to be quite easy to do exactly that - you just use the hatchways that are used to make the "Transport" version of the Beast to add to the top of the cab, and mount the heavy cannon in the flatbed section instead.  :)

New update today: Now you can pre-order for just the faction you want - we'll go in and cut up the sprues for you before posting them out so you receive only the Humans or the Aliens, according to your preference.

Are there plans for other aircraft to be added to the range, both human and alien?  I would like to bulk out my 6mm aircraft collection for those factions.

Im going to pledge for a pair of Lancastrians I think.

There are, either as stretch goals in the final week, or later on as a more conventional release - it depends on the funding we raise (the more we raise, the more we get to release)... Thanks for the support!

Hello everyone!

And so the final week begins.

The last month has amazed us at every step, we are incredibly grateful for all the incredible financial support we’ve received so far.

We’re currently dedicating all the funds we can from new pre-orders towards improving the plastic sprue (adding extra poses & sculpts), but that doesn’t mean we can’t offer a cool bonus stretch goal in the final week…

So, without further prevarication, hesitation, delaying, pontificating, mis-direction, concealment, waffle (etc)…

If we hit £8000, every pledge of £45 or more will receive one free infantry & IFVs plastic sprue, and every pledge of £90 more more will receive two free plastic infantry & IFVs sprues.

Thankyou for your continued support!



FREE STUFF, WOOP!

Based on feedback, we've introduced a new pledge for the last few days - a sample pledge that just nets you a single plastic infantry & IFV's sprue.

Thanks for your attention and feedback everyone!

Holy wow!
We made it to £8000!

Can we (dare we say it) get to “Over 9000”?!

If we pass £9000, we’re prepared to DOUBLE our £8000 stretch rewards, so everyone who has pledged £45 or more will receive TWO free Infantry & IFV’s plastic sprues, and everyone who has pledged £90 or more will receive FOUR free plastic infantry & IFV’s sprues.

And if not, well, we’re still overwhelmed by the incredible support we’ve received.

From the campaign :

35 Hours To Go!

The £9000 stretch goal point is nearly within reach, it’s so close that we can almost taste the free plastic sprues for contributors who’ve pledged £45 or more… so what happens when you go “over 9000”?

Well, if we pass £9000 and end up hitting the mighty £10,000, we’ll give a free metal Human Supreme Commander and a free metal Alien Supreme Commander to every pledger who’s contributed £50 or more.

We love you guys; This funding campaign has been amazing.

Here’s to the next 35 hours!

With £9k smashed and £10k possibly within reach, we have an £11k stretch goal freebie prepared, just in case....

I wonder what it could be?
