NebulousMissy Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Okay. So... Now that paypal is working I need to sit down with the pledge manager and several people to put together a list of stuff we're all getting. I already blew my entire initial pledge on a core set and several expansions. This means I also need a paycheck to play around with. Like, an entire paycheck not actually earmarked for rent or plane tickets or sudden emergencies 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, an entire paycheck not actually earmarked for rent or plane tickets or sudden emergencies I listed all of my wants in the order of price, then spent my pledge on the most expensive stuff. Everything left on my list now is $14 or less, and I figure I can spare $10-20 a paycheck between now and when the pledge manager closes to get it all. Reaper may hate the number of orders I generate, though. 9 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only took me five bones KS's to realize it. Ok, technically only three, since B1 and B2 didn't have add on orders. And I think ultimately, I'll end up spending more this way. It was tough to do it at first, because a bunch of the stuff I really want is in the $6-8 range while some of the more expensive stuff is lower down on my priority. But I finally realized that it will be easier to swallow picking up a catapult at retail prices than the pirate ship. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaper may hate the number of orders I generate, though. This is a really great strategy. I was planning to make a spreadsheet listing the items in order of desire, with any duplicates (extra siege engines, etc.) being placed at the end, after I had gotten at least one of each thing I want, but I may have to rethink doing it in the order you laid out. The only big exception at the moment being the Pirate Ship... They have stated that it will be available in opaque, clear, and translucent green, IIRC. But the PM only has one listing for it. I am intending to wait for Reaper to figure out how they are going to differentiate which version a person wants before I order it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, too late for me to worry about it until Reaper takes some action. I'll worry about it then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, too late for me to worry about it until Reaper takes some action. I'll worry about it then. I asked in Reaper Live tonight, but Ron isn't there, so they said "ask Ron tomorrow" on Bones 5 Live, as to when they'll update the PM to account for the three different versions of the ship. Here's a bunch of previewed stuff (much of it'll be in tomorrow's update): The bar from the Brinewind Extras: Turnaround render art from Brinewind: Half-Orc Doxie from Brinewind: Halfling Doxie from Brinewind: Lastly, a couple Power-Ups for the Pledge Manager: (Sorry, my page had scrolled a bit, so the tops of the images got cut off; there is no price on the beast men image yet, and the Pugh brothers didn't know the price.) I'm so stoked, because the Demonic Legions is the demons that people had taken pictures of at ReaperCon, and I was so disappointed hadn't made it into the Kickstarter. I'm so ecstatic because they will make perfect Tanarukk for D&D. I'll probably get two or three of this set... Edit: Here are some pictures from ReaperCon of those smaller members of the Demonic Legion (presumably Human-sized?) ReaperCon 2019 photos taken by forumite fletcherpeatross.

Chris Palmer Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) Well, I didn’t know my evil forces needed a unit or two of demon warriors, but I guess they do now! Curse Reaper for offering so many cool unit builder options this time for us wargamers! And I’m loving these Brinewind previews. So much character! I can’t help but look at that Brinewind merchant and think of Inspector Clouseau interrogating the blind street musician and his “minky”...

Lidless Eye Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Those Doxies are great! Perfect adaptations of the concept art. The Shaman in that Beastmen power-up looks perfect for a Rangifer for Frostgrave. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksbsnowowl Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) A few better shots from today's Bones 5 Live, plus some new stuff: Brinewind Extras dockfront bar. Whispering Ghoulsbane from Fan Favorites: They blew up the image of the Beastmen power-up, so you can see those sculpts better. A turn-around of the Ogre Porter from Brinewind: A few other items of note: They will get around to updating the pledge manager to account for the stated three different castings of the Pirate Ship (opaque, clear, translucent green). It will probably be a while yet, but they will get to it. The Beastmen power-up didn't have a price on it because Ron is probably going to add some wererats to it as well, and will set the price then. The sense I got was 4 wererats, but can't confirm I actually heard that number. Just a guess on my party, but since the Demonic Legion was 6 "medium" figures and one large, then a Beastmen set of 8 total medium figures will probably also be around $12. Ron once again teased that a Battering Ram will make it into the Pledge Manager at some point, as a power-up. I asked about the previously-teased Dreadmere sourcebook, and Ron said to check back next week (or the week after). Edit: Oh, the size of the Wall of Thorns and Wall of Stone was asked about, and they were at first giving responses as to the Wall of Thorns' footprint on the game table. Eventually they figured out people were asking about the broadface dimensions, not the depth of the footprint, though they were talking over themselves as they were figuring out what we all were asking. The Wall of Thorns was given answers that amount to: 1.5" long x 2" high x 0.5" wide. They apparently lost the Wall of Stone print, so couldn't measure it on the gridded mat they pulled out, but given the picture next to Sir Forscale I posted a page or two ago (from last week, IIRC), and video I saw of Sir Forscale on a gridded cutting mat in the first episode of Miniature Mondays, I am fairly certain the Wall of Stone is 2" long x 2" tall (no idea on the width of the footprint).

Corsair Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Also, some fun news, the @buglips*the*goblin mini will eventually be released to retail, although it might be in metal. Yay! Our Mascot and Hero will be able to haunt everyone's home! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
