The game looks awesome. The X-Wing approach they're taking with character cards and equipment promises to be a ton of fun.

Manchu: Thank you so much for sharing what you have over the last couple of days!

After feedback from a number of Backers we have added 3 new KS bundle deals, all of which save approx 50% off of the current KS prices and are a quick easy way to get a gang together.

Firstly the Car Bundles, set up for each of the 2 main factions:


and secondly the conversion set bundle that allows conversion of Devil's Run vehicles, but also those from other suppliers, such as Hotwheels and Matchbox

Good timing to launch the game :)
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

For what it is worth, I have not backed this yet but am considering it.  I asked World Forge if they would consider having the sculptor(s) relook the motorcycle riders and try to have them keep their right (throttle) hand on the throttle and use their left hand (clutch) to fire/hold weapons.   They said they would look into that.

If they do so I can very much see picking up a bike gang at some point, even if I wait for retail.

The 20mm scale of this means I have no interest in backing the KS for the game, but as it has already succeeded it would be great if the CAD renders of the Hauls Angels bikes and trike could be up-scaled to suit 28mm figures as they would make superb pieces to decorate game tables of countless post modern or postapoc games.

Final hours are running! Lots of sg unlocked and the war rig at the horizon.

What a lovely Day!

Some of this looks really cool, some a not so. (Rocketeer style jetpacks, really?) I agree that having the cycle armed models take their hands off the throttle to fire weapons is a bit of an oversight  ;)

Also it states that some of the add on packs can be used for hotwheels. Are hot wheels 20 mm? Will they look right on the board next to the resin models? If so, I can see that going with 20mm makes sense.
