Looks good! Thank you for previewing the pledges.
How many poses/sculpts are there for every weapon type? And will you consider adding a "one of each sculpt" for the collectors/painters/warband builders among us?

no worries - everything is still very 'work in progress' at this point.

There will be 6 different models for each infantry formation. 2 command sets with each 3 minis. several champions with interchangable weapons, 3 goat knights, 1 goat champion, 1 army general on war goat, the paymaster, a mage and his Acolyte and and and.

I like your idea with the 1 of everything. I'll add that sometime soon.  :)

Yes...! I've always wanted the 1 of everything option from campaigns but they never seem to offer it!

Regarding the "Patrol" pledge, if one was to pick a Goat Knight unit, would the Unit Champion also be a goat rider?

Regardless, it's a very enticing Kickstarter.

Yes, the full unit would have 5 models incl. The Champion. I might need to change that to make it a bit clearer!

Still lots of work ahead. :--)

Hi,

since the units are 9 strong, any thought for chance to purchase extra members to each unit, e.g.. for games such as up-coming Dragon Rampant (which does seem to have a possibility of reduced number of models per unit in comparison with 12 and 6 of Lion Rampant)?

The pledge levels do look nice nevertheless.

Hi,

The pledge levels include enough suitable champions and command sets to generate units that are 10 and 20 strong.
That, and there will be a list of add on's that allow to purchase single miniatures and small sets to build units in exactly the way you like them.

Thanks for the preview. Now I've got some idea of what I'd like to aim for.

The first 60x60 tile is almost ready. The plan is still to make a 120x180, or even 240 board.
I was ordering some of the magic trees from modelldesign.net - can't wait to plant these little buggers.

Looking great.

The next several months are going to be busy. Really busy.

OUTSTANDING! It is almost too BEAUTIFUL to use for mere war gaming.
