Speculation: CAV Bones Kickstarter

[Nanite]

I'm asking because I've got many normal bones, and I do kinda think they're too soft for CAV.

 

But then Wyrmgear has these hard-plastic wings, so, why couldn't they be done like that?

If I remember correctly, Bonesium isn't one specific formula, but a family of formulas that get chosen from based on the specific piece...and even then, they vary slightly within a formula based on how much recycled material is present.  

 

From what I can tell from digging through my KS box...generally the thinner the thinnest bit is, or the easier it is to take out of the mold, the harder the formulation they use.  In Wyrmgear's case, the wings are incredibly thin, so they used a hard formulation to keep them from flopping...and the Earth Elemental is very simple in terms of exterior, so he's rock solid as well [insert rimshot here].  

Meanwhile, Kally's head [with the long, zig-zaggy, thin horns just begging to be snapped] and Ol' Squidface's head [same deal, with the tentacle things] are much softer, and the only reason I can think of for making them that way is to facilitate getting them out of the mold in one piece.

I can tell you from very personal experience:  normal boneseum works just fine for CAV.

You're one of the lucky SOBs that got to fondle a BoneyCAV at Rcon last year?  Nice!

Yeah, I can back Girot up as well.  The Bones CAVs at ReaperCon were very nice.  The interchangable press-fit parts were fantastic. <slips into a day dream about playing with a horde of Bones CAV minis...>

Just to bring you up to date and to make sure some people don't twist stuff out of context, I still am in charge of CAV and it will see "the light of day". We are making some changes in the structure of the game from where we were and when its time to let it out the door more information will be forthcoming. That way there's no empty promises, no vaporware, etc. etc.

After almost four years since the announcement of this project, please excuse me if I'm less than excited.

More communication, or even repurposing your site into a Dev Diary, would facilitate things.  Even if it's "We playtested X, turns out it didn't work, back to the drawing board", something is better than nothing.  Maybe take Leviathans as an example [though they don't update very often]

[Girot]

Woooo!!! Great news!!

My contribution: Emailed Reaper to add my voice to the choir of people asking for CAV bones. I got the repley that the where going to "one day soon" Soon!

The S-word in a CAV topic. Must walk away before frothing sets in.

[Sergeant_Crunch]

Well, that settles it. When they do get made, my great grandchildren are going to have to paint them for me.

[Brother Jim]

Also walking away for a bit due to S-word.

There was a lot of discussion of the Bones CAV at Reapercon this year!  I am looking forward to a glorious summer.
