Blood Rage Norse Viking boardgame plus minis

[Duncan McDane]

Next two stretch goals are KS exclusive. Can't wait to see the sculpt of the mystic troll  .

Why wait, pics are on KS and facebook. But hey, just for you.

[Duncan McDane]

Yeah, I spotted him after posting. Thanks anyway ( and a great fig it is ).

[Nord]

It is indeed, I thought the project wobbled a bit with the (frankly) lame/laughable tokens, but I was still cheering it on, I'm happy with the original set of figures, especially since the alternate poses were unlocked. This is a real bonus.

Wow, I just want that troll. Too bad it's kickstarter exclusive.

[Nord]

I love the trolls and the vikings, but the latest stretch goal is just 



There is a caveat. This is the resin master, the production figure will be a pvc copy, so will not be as crisp, but all the shots of the pvc figures look pretty good to my eyes. They should offer resin versions of some of these figures, they could probably outsell the game totals.

[Duncan McDane]

Awesome  .
I like the way you are thinking about offering their bigger models in resin too, maybe they should make it a collectors boxed set. Depending on the quality of the plastics I would certainly be interested in a set like that.

Huge fan of Norse stuff so I'm in on this.  Heck I might even play the game if I get carried away.

Ok so i dont speak Kickstarter so i need someh elp translating.

Right now there are 10 days to go and hit $391k. I see only one item left to unlock at $400k. So let us assume that will happen. What is the money value i have to pledge to get all the bangs and whistles? I myself are looking more towards the minis over the game.

Also, the 5th person box u can get for an extra $30. Does that have different minis than the main box set?

appreciate the linguistics help. :-)

Hi Grimmnar!

In KS usually you have one unlocked Stretch Goal at a given time, one it's unlocked they will show the next one to keep the money flowing until the end on the funding period. I'm pretty sure we will see more after Frigga.

The 5th clan box has (all sculpts are new, save for the ships which comes in another colour):

The 5th Player Expansion introduces the mighty Ram clan into Blood Rage! This clan comes complete with 8 Warrior figures (in two different sculpts), 1 Leader Figure, 1 Ship figure, 1 Clan Sheet, 1 Plastic Glory Marker, 4 cardboard Clan tokens, 11 small colored bases, and 2 large colored bases.

Also, if you get through KS (it will available after in shops), you get some exclusives:

However, we want to give our backers some very special rewards. So if you purchase the 5th Player Expansion box in this Kickstarter, we'll give you the following Kickstarter Exclusive items:

    1 alternate sculpt figure of the Dwarf Chieftain, with a "5+" card for Age 1.
    1 alternate sculpt figure of the Dark Elf, with a "5+" card for Age 2.
    1 alternate sculpt figure of the Soldier of Hel, with a "5+" card for Age 3.
    4 sculpted Ram Clan tokens.

I'm not too happy with the plastic they use for the models ( only just seen it ), quite some loss of detail. Also, the gods are quite boring designs so far, to be honest.
Mind you, I'm still in for the set and the Adrian Smith artbook, but will probably not get any fig-related add-ons.

[Elbows]

I don't have high expectations for the minis as far as plastic or build...but I've done some nice things with complete turd pre-paints from various games, so I'm not worried.  And this game is $75...not $160 like many of the other recent huge boardgame projects.  It's a good value for a cool looking game.

I do love some of the monster sculpts - everything else may stay in the box.

Same here, in it for the vikings and the trolls, though the giant was a really nice addition. Some of the other figures look pretty nice too. There should be easily enough there for a Gods and Mortals warband. There are pictures floating around of production models ie pvc rather than resin, and they look pretty good.

Do you have a link to those pics?
Really like the sculpts so far but am still not sure if I should get into the game
