Thank you SamuraiJack for merging me to the right place. Edited October 17, 2020 by ksbsnowowl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokestack Posted October 22, 2020 Author Share Posted October 22, 2020 They added a new pledge level for Roleplayers. its $64 and comes with one box of miniatures of choice, 1 plastic ship, and the stretch goal box. A bunch of stretch goals have been reached adding some crates, extra heads, animals, weapons and such. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their “stretch goals” that are reached by reaching a certain pledge level, aren’t free. They are added as add-ons that you can add to your pledge. The free “stretch goals” are called “box of plunder” and are added free to the levels that include the box of plunder. These goals are not reached by achieving a certain funding level. They are unlocked by doing social media stuff. Like posting pictures of painted pirates, singing sea chantys and posting them, sharing your favorite book about 18th century, etc. You can purchase the box of plunder if you want additional copies or are at a pledge level that doesn’t come with it. It currently has an alternate black beard miniature, and one of the current goals is a priest. Though my favorites are cannon crew arms and extra heads and command options that will fit their sailor or militia boxes. Other than the little tease about female pirates in the comments, there hasn’t been any other mention so I doubt that will be a thing in this Kickstarter, but there is still the possibility of plastic native Americans and plastic soldier cavalry. People have asked if the plastic natives will be northern natives or Caribbean natives. I don’t know if that’s been answered yet.

Grefven Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Does anyone know if one is able to pick up only that kickstarter guest artist miniature from the Box of Plunder? I would not mind picking up that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not mind picking up that one. Nothing is marked Kickstarter exclusive (to my knowledge) so presumably it will be available on its on at retail. you can buy the box of plunder separately for $25. But you can’t buy individual items from the box seperate in the Kickstarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexomatic Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Have they talked about sprue compatibility anywhere or done size comparisons? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokestack Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, lexomatic said: Have they talked about sprue compatibility anywhere or done size comparisons? short answer: no but.., “Someone asked for a comparison shot, so here you go. 3 on the left are 3d prints of the new plastics and 3 on the right are metal models” edit: I (Smokestack) don’t own any of their models so I don’t know how big the metal models in the pic below really are. But the plastic look to match up well with them... also under the militia box update they posted: "What we can tell you is that this box will allow you to field non-uniformed units such as militia men, rangers, and rebels! This box will feature a lot of compatibility with the sailors box. Heads, weapons, etc. will be interchangeable with models from this and the sailors box. This will give you EVEN MORE variability and uniqueness for your armies. " i asked the following : “I like this statement, but that leads me to ask about compatibility with the soldiers box. I added a militia box. May add another depending on what else gets unlocked. Still waiting to see more of the head options on the soldiers before I add them.” they answered: “I plan to have some compatibility with the soldier set, but can't make any promises yet. We'll update on that as we get the sculpts rolling.” in another post he mentioned the plastic minis are 31mm to eyes. Was trying to find the post but 800+ comments I gave up. edit: also the plastic sets come with round bases with a wood plank effect.

Knight of the Dinner Table Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I guess it was me who asked in the comment section, I can confirm that they answered about 31 mm to the eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksbsnowowl Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Anybody know if that 31mm measurement is from the tabletop, or from the top of their base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexomatic Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I think I might wait until retail and see if I want to complement my Brinemere/Dreadwind stuff. If anything I'd get the pirates of legends, because it's got fancy pants and regular sailors of note. Some casualties would be nice. I guess I could always make some from a sailor box.

Smokestack Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 3 more days. The native american (Caribbean) set has been unlocked. That's 4 sets now of multi-part hips that are available. Soldiers Sailors Militia Caribbean natives These sets are $25 each and come with enough bodies to make 12 figures each with lots of head options and weapon options... But... I had misunderstood about the character models and stretch goal. All of the figures in this kickstarter are multi-part HIPS plastic. So Blackbeard, Maynard, the alternate Blackbeard, the priest, the unlocked heads and weapons, etc... as well ad the "pirates of Legend" box. That comes with 10 multi-part HIPS pirate characters. So. Even if you were not looking for a "Stede Bonnet" or "Anne Bonnie" mini... being multi-part plastic makes it easier to convert into something you do want and can use.... So that is the Pirates of Legend set added for me... My all in while this is live is $258.00 which includes the bases set (game, 24 sailors, 2 pirate ships) the box of plunder, 2 boxes of militia, another pirate ship, and the pirates of legend... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
