I'll be in on this one too. I want to get that Lich mini plus the cultists sound great.

I think if the next plastic sprue is all cultists, it will have less utility and be less popular to the gaming community as a whole, than the Frostgrave Soldiers plastic sprue does/is. The latter can not only be mixed and matched successfully with other plastic kits, it can also be used in a large range of settings...a heap of cultist would be less so.

I'd prefer to see another set of plastic Frostgrave soldiers expanding on the first set.

Cultists less so??
Ehm...Cthulhu? Pulp? Fallout? Sci-fi?
I think Cultists are way more useful for gaming than fantasy warriors. You can find these hoodies in a lot of settings and AFAIK there are no plastics available. So I think it's a brilliant idea to make plastics. As long as they can be carrying all kinds of weapons and their outfits aren't too fantastic.

Yes less popular than generic soldiers but I think still popular depending on how they are presented as cultists. If they are robed then the robe style could be used in many different genre. Just speculating though.

A question for Nick really, but, with the expansion and slightly more evil overtones are we likely to see some alternate darker wizards and apprentices for any of the schools?

Really looking forward to the next nickstarter!

I think the cultist box is a great idea, as mentioned before, there are so many games they can be used.
There could be some really weired conversions if they are combined with other plastic kits from the ancient times
up to the WWII.  ;D

I also agree that printed spellcards would be very nice!

Another thumbs up for a pack of cards, maybe as part of the next Nickstarter? I would buy at least 2 packs.

I would always like a nice pack of cards.

I'm in like Flynn and looking forward to the box o cultists I'll be getting!

I'd also put in another call for offering the spells up as a deck of cards: I'd be delighted to give you more of my money, and that just seems like a much easier way to manage them all than ticking a box on the wizard warband sheet. 

Thanks!
