Two plastic walker tanks available through the Cool Mini Kickstarter
for 'Rivet Wars' the SturmPanzer and the MT-1 Ostrich
look like they will be useable in other games(if you leave off the chibi driver and put something else in place: or closed hatch)

They are pre-orderable for $20 USD- a pop
(plus a minimum $10 USD- KS 'buy in' fee.
Still: For $25 USD- including shipping (US only)
Not Too Shabby!

Drawback is they won't be delivered 'till September,
but Cool Mini has a good track record on delivering the goods.

I'm probably buying these when the hit the stores, if I'm waiting for the next SDE expansion. I refuse to dump money on KS minis projects because that way lies madness (or more minis than I can ever paint).

I'm in on the kickstarter. I don't even know what the game is like, but the minis are so cool, I'll find a use for them.

I'm in the KS as well:
My Son is 10, and enjoys RTS computer games,
so I'm hoping this may get him into table-top a bit more.
He loves Zombicide, and I hope to get him painting with the zombies!
If he does well, I'll let him paint the chibi models as further incentive/ reward.

I love chibi stuff and probably will do this KS. I passed on the Reaper one because it did little for me.

These are so cool and chk out the game play vid it's only for the most basic game but I find it very interesting and I think it will be upgrable to large wargame with a few tweaks. I'm in for two full sets of everything; I've always loved WW1 and never found a good enough rules set – i've tried loads and done it multiple scales – all now sold. I'm really hopeing this will fit the bill especially with the steampunk influence.

So Chaps go take a look and see what you think

Taken the tanks off the 'extra purchase' option, but if you 'Blitzkrieg'd' the pledge, your get an extra one of each. I'm in at that level – looking good for 'lots' of extras as the pledge level (with 21 odd days to go)is at $200,000 USD +
