Red Sonja was loosely based on Red Sonya of Rogatino, a character from Robert E. Howard's short story "The Shadow of the Vulture". Red Sonya, was a sword-and-pistol-wielding supporting character of the late Renaissance. Roy Thomas rewrote "The Shadow of the Vulture" as a Conan story for Marvel Comics' Conan the Barbarian #23 (1973). Thomas also based Red Sonja on another Howard character, Dark Agnes de Chastillon, a sword woman in 16th-century France.

Red Sonja is not a Howardian character, so you can be sure she will not be part of this KS...

Well I've given in and backed!  :D One thing I'm not sure on is getting add ons. Right now I can only afford to go in at the main pledge, but would like to get a few bits and bobs at a later date. Can you do this in the Pledge Manager and if so, how do they invoice you for this? Thanks

When you pledge you enter your pledge amount, so in your case it would be for the base amount, as time goes on, you can add more funds to the amount as you like, or when the KS ends, you will be given an invoice form and asked to pick what you want, so you would select the base set, then if any parts took our fancy, you would select them and the total owed would go up which is what you would pay.

Ah cool thanks. Glad to know. I've pledged on a Mantic Kickstarer in the past, and once that ended my pledge money left my account, then after it, I could add more stuff but would be invoiced via PayPal. Wasn't sure what method Monolith would be doing as it doesn't state it in the FAQ.

That poster is a perfect example of:
Something to frame and piss off the wife while I try to do the intro tune from the first movie
Something that will guarantee a proper fuck up for both packaging (if it has to be shipped in a tube) and delivery...
