Depends how good of a deal I can get with my tool cutters. I've sent a number of big jobs their way as part of my freelancing, so they may cut me a good deal. We shall see.

Wild guess on the ETA of the kickstarter?

This is exactly what I am after. You can count on my support.

I've always wanted a WWI sci fi australian army

Just had a look at that KS and I have to say wow, those models look awesome and would tempt me to try the game. Even if the guy at Mierce is a bit of a tool, he must have done something right to reach £100k.

As much as I want to see more awesome 6mm models, I am not sure just a KS for the models would get there, I suspect it would need to be supported by an actual game with rules and background to bring in more people.

As one of the total of 2 people who's written finished & printed supplements for Epic, I reckon as that wouldn't be impossible.

I'm still getting quotes to see if this is practical.

I don't think any new rules are necessary. Just like what warlord did for 28mm historicals with their plastics, E&C can do with 6mm sci fi no rules needed. Remember the big driver for plastics is price for the customer. A standard cheap Sci fi tank army fits any rules. Hell i would buy sets to give potenital players, 36 tanks is like 2000 odd points at least for epic for less than the price of two movie tickets.

Looking good E&C.
A couple quick questions:
1- I can't see the 3 Twin Flak Cannons on this spure?
2- the Flak cannons don't look... umm, 'flakky' enough? Can they be made longer or quad barrelled in any way?
3- It's probably been asked but is it a better option to have spures consisting of solely IFV's, Artillery (include AA?) and AFV's (tanks etc)?
With this option the Tank sprue could have 6 (?) hulls and different turret options - long barrelled gun, short barrelled gun, gatling barrel etc?
The Arty spure could contain 8 (?) hulls, with different turret options for long barrelled arty, dual/quad AA and short barrelled howitzer offerings.
The IFV offering could include 8(?) hulls with different turret options including standard turret, turret with flamethrower and storage tanks etc?

Ben I keep meaning to email you, I will after this. Anyway there is a 6mm project now on kickstarter - robotech. I confess to not having a clue about it.

Kickstarter sounds great!

Maybe with some promo on portals like Beast of War, Bell of Lost Souls etc to reach even more potential backers?!

Ok then.
Make a choice:

Humans + IFV's* plastic sprue.

Bulked up "hulks" + ramshakle vehicles plastic sprue.


*That's an APC with a weapon turret on top.

Need neither. Will buy any.

Ramshackled stuff is perhaps the smartest option seing as noone makes any.
