I did not see pictures attached to a couple of the posts.  These pictures are from Twitter.

From what I've seen of this range so far, I have to say I'm very impressed. I haven't seen a bad figure yet!  :)

There's some real crackers there. The Voodoo range looks very useful.

EXACTLY! A very nice marriage between a team of highly talented sculptors - Mike Owen and Mark Copplestone - and the inspiration of RU-MOR's awesome artwork!  :-*

The ragged confederates do look quite nice.  Ragged, but nice.

They're ragged because they're dead. Well, undead. Called REVENANTS in the game! They make one of the 6 starting factions, called The Dark Confederacy.  ;)

ANNO DRACULA + ABRAHAM LINCOLN VAMPIRE HUNTER rip-off! :D

 
While I can't argue with this statement, I have to say that the more I see of this, the more I like it. I am very intrigued.

Apologies folks, real-life reared it's head over the weekend!

@Gardensnake: Indeed, it's more than a simple vampires versus humans 'rip-off'! Though as I've said before I'm a hopeless fanboy so expect plenty of references/homages to the Western and Horror genres throughout the books... And I make no apologies for that! ;)

@Dinohunterpoa: There are actually two kinds of Confederates shown in the new pictures- the living 'Die-Hards' and the pistol-wielding zombies are the 'Revenants'!

@MWeaver: Thanks for posting those images- plenty there that are new to me! :D Looking forward to painting up the Pale Rider to go with my Dark Confederacy...

@LeadAsbestos: Welcome aboard! While there are no hard and fast rules for creating your own Factions, the game is flexible enough that you can easily adapt the existing Factions and Skills to suit your needs- especially if you use the Advanced Posse creation system.

@Kommando_J: What a brilliant idea for a narrative mini-campaign!..  :-*

@Marine0846: Thanks- if you have any more questions yourself, drop them below and I'll try to answer them!

Fenrir, thank you very much for the clarification! Since the picture is not in color, they all look pretty dead to me, some freshier than the others!  :D

Sounds like it is going to be a hard un-ife as well.

It has all the elements there, two obsessed/vindictive/crazy and wealthy men, each supported by a scientific institute (Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia and Peabody Museum of Natural History at Yale) and both willing to bribe, slander, sabotage each others digs as well as sponsor other bands of fossil hunters to dot he same.

Even without the added supernatural setting giving the dinosaur bones more 'military application', it'd still make for a good campaign lol, pic is Marsh(center) and his armed 'assistants'.
