Fireforge games news - full on with new fantasy range

Another wip of the cavalry assembled with lances :)

Each plastic set will have a lot of different parts, for example our spearmen will have
6 different bodies
8 different heads
15 different weapon options
a lot of accessories to customize your soldiers
a command frame to obtain commanders (with more different parts and weapons)

you will be able to mix all the different parts from the different boxes to obtain a incredible number of different soldiers: for example use the bodies from the cavalry kit to assemble infantrymen with more armour (there will be a lot of options for achers and for the northern cavalry too)

CAD is over taking the sculpting part of the industry. There are a few test prints of the guys in the first few posts of the thread

I don't mind CAD sculpting, but before buying a model I personally need to see a picture of the actual model. I need to get a better sense of the CAD to model transition... which is not always perfect.

I prefer the GW system, where they provide pictures of the actual models, even though they were sculpted in CAD. That said, I understand that GW is in the financial position to do so.

Hammer meets nail. It's all about the moolah

For sure. I would simply wait until the models become available and skip the whole kickstarter phase.

Agreed. Also I don’t believe that investing in Kickstarters is a good idea - have a look at Alien VS Predator in my thread about it. According to some of the grumblers on DakkaDakka it took ages for Prodos’ Kickstarter stuff to be sent out to the investors. I see it as being a bit like investing in shares except for wargaming.

I’d rather wait until the minis come out and then buy them at my own pace and with the knowledge that they would arrive at my house very soon.

While I completely understand this, I treat kickstarters as both a "fire and forget" type of thing as well as a "business investment" simultaneously.

I vet every Kickstarter company I think about pledging too before I throw money at the wall. It's why mantic has gotten my money on several occasions.

It's also why I am skeptical of lost kingdomss upcoming lizardmen Kickstarter.
 
My philosophy for Kickstarter is:
- only give money you can easily spare
- consider the money to be gone
- forget about the project after a while
- be pleasantly surprised one day when something actually happens

As of now I have supported four Kickstarter projects, of which two gave me something that I consider being worth the money, and two didn't reach their goals so I didn't pay anything.
