If they would have updated the "small" rpg in the KS, I would have been happier. I did keep my 25 dollar pledge thou, so I'll be ordering in the PM. Does anyone know if we need to make anther account even thou we have an existing account due to backing B5 (& older KSes, but 5 is the latest & the one that used the current style of PM.). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious about this too. the KS was pretty clear that the email address needs to be the same one you use on Kickstarter, but right now it's still showing that my pledge manager is locked for bones 5 shipping and I should make a new account.....

Moderator Guindyloo Posted March 8, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted March 8, 2022 Currently you do not need to do anything as the pledge manager for Base Boss is not done yet. It's going to be a couple of weeks and at that time it will be made clear what needs to be done. If you make a new account on the Bones 5 pledge manager, then you're just making it for that pledge manager. Remember that Reaper builds their own pledge managers, they don't partner with another company like backerkit. I'm pretty sure that the base boss pledge manager will be its own page entirely and once it's up there will be further instructions. (Most likely it will require you to create a new account using the email address associated with your kickstarter account.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crowsandbones Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 I'm pretty excited for this, especially curious about new designs in the future. I have lots of models to base and I'm not the biggest fan of basing... Got lots of Wrath of Kings minis that need base inserts so here's hoping they fit the bases that came with those! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranky Dog Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 As interested as I was in this particular KS, I skipped on it knowing that shipping charges would eliminate any savings I can get from picking some up at RCon at their MSRP (assuming they're ready by then). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Well I am very pleased with what they have done. The Hex Bases will work great for either Battletech or CAV with the terrain look. And I will be using the Terrain and Sci Fi for minis for Pathfinder, Starfinder or Stargrave. As far as removing the existing base under a mini, that's what Xacto blades are for. Definitely looking forward to these. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Chaoswolf Posted March 11, 2022 Moderator Share Posted March 11, 2022 I agree. I'm going to be loading up on the Sci-Fi stuff. I don't have very much else in the way of premade sci-fi bases, and they'll be useful for a lot of projects. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divaricatus Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I‘m just in $5. I think I saw enough that I will probably spend a lot more once the PM is open. Haven’t wrapped my head around it all yet. Hope the PM cleares up some measure issues though without me having to read stuff splattered on several sites. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werkrobotwerk Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I'm in for 15, probably for 2 sets of scifi 25s and a 32 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Guindyloo Posted April 6, 2022 Author Moderator Share Posted April 6, 2022 Update #6: Greetings all~ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/reaperbones5/base-boss-2-new-bases-and-base-top-inserts/posts/3474813 Quote Ed Pugh here, Sorry for the delay in updates. - Pledge Manager - With the changes we have made, concerning shipping, the pledge manager is taking longer than expected. I just got off the phone with our IT Director and he is telling me "more news early next week" So in the end it is getting close. - The pledge manager will include almost all, if not all, current Base Boss sizes. They will be bagged, and not blistered like/for retail. - When I get back next week I hope to have some updated pics from production for you. (I am currently at home recovering from Covid. All good, actually feeling human today) - Sadly we cannot convert, or roll Base Boss 2 into the current Bones 6 Kickstarter. I did see mentioned in a post you can get in Bones KS6 for a dollar. Actually it's a 10.00 pledge, but once in you can pick and choose. - We will sync Base Boss 2 updates to the promised 1st and 3rd Fridays with the next update being on Friday the 15th. -If you have any questions please email [email protected] Take care, stay safe and I hope to have the PM for you next week 🙂 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2ED Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Any word yet on the pledge manager or further updates? Getting anxious to spend some moolah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWulfe Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I'm also curious, since most recent update says "next update April 15th" and it's almost a week later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
