Good evening troops! As you know, we're headed into the final and most critical phase of the campaign over the coming week. John and I know we can count on each and every one of you to push as hard as you can to help get us to the 200 mark. Why is this important? At 200k, there is enough money in the pot to ensure that all of you benefit from a full complement of playing pieces for almost any possible combination of force allocation for any playable force in almost any mission as freebies at the higher pledge levels. Furthermore, the special dice and even more importantly, the plastic doors make it in for free. I think there are a few other goodies we can slip in between 170 and 200. Waterslide Decals and a big pack of MI-13 troopers with corresponding cards can probably happen in this space :-)
You have all been seeing images and reading discussion about the Fallschirmjager Drop Troopers. We are finishing up the art over the next couple of days and intend to introduce this new playable force as add-on to the campaign. This is something we've wanted to do for a couple of years now. We'll need to get the pledge level up to 250k before we can afford the steel dies required to get these guys into plastic but because you guys are insisting, we'll make them available in metal. We have seven figures planned. They are as follows:
1. Hauptman Hidegard (Hilde) Becker: Die Walkure.
2. Feldwebel with STG-44 (rifle grenade and vampyr scope)
3. Trooper #1
4. Trooper #2
5. MG-42 Specialist
6. Flammenwerfer Specialist
7. Panzerfaustwerfer Specialist (Panzerfaust Multi-launcher)
The rules are still in an Alpha phase. We'll be asking any of you who are interested to help us test these rules over the next two months or so. We'll provide print and play cards and standups for you to participate! John Roberts will collect game play data via our forums.
Here's the latest John Allison art! Panzerfaustwerfer and Feldwebel
