Sorely disappointed that Reaper has eschewed mythological accuracy in order to give these Amazons two breasts. No thank you, sir! The female heroes are not bad though.

I don't think there is anything that I would share on my facebook for, but definitely not these dudes.

Glad they added the second expansion, although I am not sure its what I want. I would be pretty happy with everything in it, but it averages out about the same as Chronoscope (which is half 'gently caress yea' and half 'eh'). I guess I'll see what else lands in the new expansion.

We'll see what the third one is then I guess. If its not dazzling I am sure that I can sink all my cash into addons easily enough.

Reaper's Director of Operations is alt-right? Now we know why the ROW got hosed on shipping.

Yea, given that this has all blown up on them today I am ok giving them a few days to work out what they are doing. Removing the post is... not great, but I understand why they would do that, and the fact that they haven't otherwise tried to ignore the whole issue and have acknowledged it and the removal buys them some time.

There are reports that they fired him, but he made this post just a couple hours ago: quote:feel I need to clear the air here.... The way this is phrased makes me think that they are still trying to work out what to do about the whole thing ('whatever reprimands I face'). I can understand that, given that he's been there a long time its very likely that he is both important to the company and close to many of the people who are in charge of this now, and I realize that can be difficult. I am willing to see what they arrive at before making any final decision. Although this does sort of raise the question as to whether he has just been a shithead for 15 years and they've been fine with that as long as he didn't call public attention to it. That isn't really comforting. But I don't know anything about the guy, and its possible that he's either much more discrete in person, or that he was playing up his views without realizing what a mistake that was. Or that he's recently gotten considerably worse, people shift views and this has been a pretty insane year. Captain Invictus posted:I could've sworn he had already been outed as a shithead like over a year ago. The facebook posts are extremely, openly damning, though.

Also worth noting that whatever pledge you select on the Kickstarter doesn't lock you in entirely, so if you pledge $100 for the core set, after the kickstarter is done and you are completing your pledge, you can distribute that to a bunch of add-ons instead.

Well, Bones 3 launched in July 2015. and US shipping was complete in June 2017 (geeze, was it really that long? drat). I believe that most of the elements of that are now going up for retail. So getting in on the kickstarter only gets you your stuff slightly faster than retail (maybe not even much if you're outside the US). The main advantage is that you get it cheaper.

I don't think there has been any resolution at this point, unless Reaper just leaves it where it is as resolved.

It's starting to look that way, yea. I was hoping they were taking time to work something out, but if there is nothing after the weekend I'm guessing that's it.

I didn't think they would straight out fire him, because yea he's been there ages and it's clear that its a close-knit group. I was hoping that they would do something more than just ditch the post and say 'wow that happened, sorry'. I don't require everyone who acts like an rear end in a top hat to lose their jobs over it, but there are a ton of things that Reaper could do to express genuine regret and, maybe more importantly, reflect that his opinions aren't a reflection of their own.

Not a bad idea, at least bonesium tends to correct itself when it gets in hot water.

It does help, also that I already have a whole Lizardmen army. Although I have to say it's galling to pass up on a dual-pistol wielding pterodactyl.

Yes, you can pledge for a dollar and then after the kickstarter is over there will be a period to finalize your order where you can add in additional money to buy stuff - this isn't ideal because it means that the money you are going to spend doesn't go to unlocking kickstarter rewards, but will still get you the things you want.

Yea, I am all for complaining about reaper, but their fertility idol is almost identical to the Woman of Willendorf, an actual artifact from around 22,000 BCE. I mean, we don't actually know that object was a fertility idol, but it is an authentic ancient artifact and you'd be pretty hard pressed to find something more authentic to model a paleolithic statue on.

No, they didn't. He was trying to change his facebook profile and hosed it up, he has subsequently posted that he's still employed and is sorry that people caught him being a douche.

I guess they just threw in the weirdest and least compelling expansion so far. I am finding myself in the very weird position where I am put off Reaper and am probably going to end up sinking my spare cash into GW's new Necromunda release.

Atlas Hugged posted:Didn't someone ask her if she had ever seen a female form before not realizing that Victoria was her name and not just a company identity. Yea, someone made a super patronizing post telling her she should send more time studying the female form to grasp its subtleties (more boobs) and her response was more or less 'I think I'm set, I own a mirror you dink.'

It doesn't look well formed enough to be a cup. My guess would be an ingot of gold or something similar? Maybe jade?
