West Wind is running a project for some mechs for their weird war 2 game Secrets of the Third Reich. Looks like they're doing it piecemeal after the project to do the whole 2nd edition at once didn't take off as well as they needed it to

Titanforge just launched a project for a system agnostic 28mm fantasy Japanese army that works suspiciously well with Kings of War, down to the base sizes and rank setups in the renders.

Dream Pod 9 of Heavy Gear fame put up their Jovian Wars space ship minis game project; might be a little late to the space party, but they definitely have a unique aesthetic compared to all of the others, very Nexus: The Jupiter Incident

Kai Tave posted:I strongly suspect that using someone's attempted suicide to browbeat unsatisfied Kickstarter backers by going "look what you did, this is your fault" is an insanely lovely and tasteless thing to do, like even beyond most normal standards for elfgame-related lovely tastelessness.

So it essentially comes down to Kevin Siembieda being an irredeemable scumbag of massive proportions to anyone and everyone, as it suits the needs of his ego

Falstaff posted:I don't think the scale kerfuffle went down like that, actually. The vote you're thinking of was about whether or not Palladium would sell Robotech Tactics figures at GenCon, which was before they'd fulfilled wave one to backers, IIRC. It happened for both; or rather was meant to happen for both, but after the first time, there was such a backlash when he tried it again for the scale that he had to back away slightly

Antivehicular posted:I think someone mentioned earlier in the thread that Ninja Division dropped/tanked the project and left Siembieda holding the bag, trusting that Siembieda's reputation would make it look like his fault? Which is pretty lovely, if true (and it seems plausible enough). Ninja Division thought they were doing a simple contract game using a Palladium IP, with "by Ninja Division, published by Palladium" on the box, but once the money was in they had the game taken away from them, and they were reduced to contract sculptors for Palladium only, because the greedy rear end in a top hat is physically incapable of sharing credit with anyone - and had to enter the trinary hell of feedback, seeking, and reseeking approval from both Siembieda, and Harmony Gold. They completed the work they were paid for, to the bad and contradictory advice and specifications they were given, and moved on. Siembieda remains holding the bag because RRT was genuinely the sleazy, egotistical shithead's own loving fault. Whether Ninja Division would have produced a better product or not without the interference I can't say. NTRabbit fucked around with this message at 07:16 on Apr 24, 2017 |

Yeah, the walls, fences, and hedges in particular look good for both fantasy and historicals at 28mm, and I plan to combine some of the other bits with Germ's Area Terrain as well

My bank is now telling me that they can't process my payment to the Fragged Empires Kickstarter because it's in Australia and that's a "banned destination" for reasons the person I spoke to could not explain. I successfully backed Fragged Empires, and my bank is a subsidiary of St. George and Westpac, the person you spoke to is immensely full of poo poo and trying badly to cover up some kind of mistake.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:I wouldn't hope too much, they recently released some updated rules and didn't even touch the biggest complaints. Namely most missions take near perfect rolling and turn management to even stand a chance at beating them. They put together a new rules committee, and after a few months testing released the first of something like 6 planned FAQs with fixes for the simplest stuff, they're not done yet.

All the local groups, stores, and companies I loosely follow on social media have been repping The Brigade - A Board Game of Fantasy Firefighting since it went up a few days ago, made by a team in Melbourne. Looks like it could be a cool game, and they have an online version you can try before pledging, which is a pretty neat next step above a free PnP demo NTRabbit fucked around with this message at 14:18 on Aug 4, 2017 |

In non-RPGs, Mantic's Kings of War: Vanguard has gone live, Skirmish game connected to the wildly successful rank and file mass battle game Kings of War. Uses elite troops and heroes to play the battle before the battle, skirmishers lead by commanders with character progression, can make one big campaign with both games, or just a skirmish campaign, or one off games as you like. Their approach to a skirmish game was inspired by a visit to the memorial at Quatre Bras, and the battle for the farmhouse that helped decide how the Battle of Waterloo went 2 days later.

Oh my god shut up about Kingdom Rapedeath already and look at a good Kingdom, Kings of War: Vanguard which has a few hours left, and in stretch goal terms has blown through the important stuff and is now unlocking single figure mercenaries that will get made either way. $150  Some new Dwarves because the CEOs ary is dwarves, so only art no renders $45  And a $30 pledge for just rules and tokens, a 2 player starter for $85, add on Warbands for $45 each, and some other add ons and levels.
