Those are some spiffy looking minis, but it's too rich for my blood right now.

Oh my gosh these are adorable! But I am not pledging for any more games. I wish them luck.

There is a miniatures only level, that includes all unlocked miniature stretch goals.

Only $60, gonna have to watch this one :)

[Snowcone]

These look amazing! I don't think I'll be able to pass them up.

[Mr Melons]

Wow, those stretch goals are 1) really ambitious dollar amounts, and 2) reeeeally lackluster. No new heroes, villains, etc, just more troops...yaaaaay

[Mr Melons]

Ouch...and an estimated delivery date of March 2016 (so at minimum 8 months). Easy will save.

The sharks don't have frikin' laser beams on their heads.

 

But they are mutated.

 

Well, that's a start.

The late delivery date doesn't bother me since this looks like it will be their first miniature game. The stretch goals being so far apart and most of them being the repeat sculpts is kind of lame. I try to remember that stretch goals are a bonus.

Was that a Deep Blue reference? You know, the 90's roleplaying game where the four playable races were human, genetically engineered/biologically mutated human (which were just better than humans in every possible way), dolphins (who were remarkably tech savvy and often had lasers strapped to their noses) and last but not least - the killer whale.

 

Amusingly it's probably the only roleplaying game to date to provided a very realistic simulation of the probable results of melee combat fought between a human and a killer whale. I wonder why......

[Smokestack]

Balgin, Rifts had playable dolphins and killer whales too... and dolphin power armor....  The 90's were a magical time....

Too bad there's no $1 pledge that enables you to pick some add-ons .. nice underwater minis are quite rare!

[Orlando_the_Technicoloured]

But you can get the minis (and even the stretch goal minis) without the game

 

which is much better than almost any other game on KS

[Talae]

Anyone know anything about the company?
