[KICKSTARTER] SoBH new expansion Fightin' Fungi

[robh]

Have to admit, as a result of them re-organising the stretch goals and dropping one of the best looking pieces I have pulled my pledge for this.
Seems to be giving in to the pressure of backers who want to steer the figure release towards mass battle units.
Lost my interest and support completely.

Which one was your favourite sculpt, the fungus queen or the spore colony?  I thought the fungus queen as a bit out of place, what with the rather not fungus look... I kinda prefer the new options of the Enoki ranger and the grasshopper cavalry is a cool idea.  I don't find it is catering more and more to building big units, but why would it not?  They can raise more money if people buy more miniatures.

No offense but to pull support over 1 figure?    Its your choice, but I wish you would reconsider. There's alot of good stuff in there including the background pdf. Just unlocked the Enoki ranger and are working on the Fungus king! Its 54mm tall. Check it out!! Also, only 32 backers from the Halfling and pig mount backer goal.

One thing I would like to find out is why MATANAGAR is always spelled in all caps?

We are currently only one backer away from 200, which means a free halfling on pig miniature for the higher levels:



Also, two new stretch goals have been revealed:

Rotting Heart Master of Mushrooms  available at $22,000



Swamp Lion available @ $24,000



We are well over 15k now, which means the pillbug cavalry has been unlocked.  This is quite exciting for me, as it is what I have been anticipating most from the campaign!



FYI, rider and bug will be separate, so the critter can be used as a big, ugly bug!

Halfling onna pig unlocked!
Grasshopper Fast Calvary unlocked!
Almost at the Fungus Controlled Goblin Zombie unlock!

42 hours to the end. $18508

More miniatures to unlock...

This sure has been picking up steam.  A week ago I was wondering whether we would reach even the pillbug cavalry.

I wonder if Robh will put his pledge back in, as the figures he initially 'wanted' will likely be unlocked before the end. 

[robh]

I wonder if Robh will put his pledge back in,

Absolutely not.

Without the Spore Colony the whole basis of the set I wanted as a D&D encounter set has gone.
As I said before, I really dislike the SoBH rule engine so this was only ever about figures I could use elsewhere. Glad for those that have pledged that it has picked up in the last few days.

Ah, so it was the Spore Colony you were after.  I saw this comment in the past day by Damon, the project creator:

For those who are still lamenting the loss of the spore colony. I have decided that piece needs\deserves to be big and resin, almost like a terrain piece, which now makes it outside the budget for this project. It will make an appearance again in the next kickstarter as a add on terrain piece for those who want it. Yes, you must wait, but it will get made bigger and better in the end.

Thank you all,
Damon

Just under 12 hours to go, current contents of the $100 pledge level:

This last day has been quite exciting!

[Timbor]

One hour to go, and the swamp lion fungus has been unlocked... can we reach the fungus paladin before then end???
