Curious Constructs have just launched there first Kickstarter to fund an alternative Anti-Tank Lasercannon, with the carriage also available seperately, and stretch goals for other alternative Heavy Weapons.

Sorry J Womack ;) but thats for your support!

Little Big Wars, potentially yes, though that was'nt the original intention I have to say! ;)

ust another quick update, we're starting to preview the stretch goals as we fight to catch up with the overwhelming response, having unexpectedly hit over 400% funding in just four days. I've now posted up the concept sketch of our Gatling Cannon, and an early work in progress render of the Autocannon.

The concept for the Autocannon is a double barrelled cannon which is crossed with a piston. As the wheel turns the barrels move in and out loading and ejecting shells as they go, this essentially just shows that mechanism. We'd welcome feedback on this design as its still in the early stages.

As a result of the unexpected demand, we've capped our earlier pledges which have now nearly been entirely filled, and opened up some new ones which are also filling rapidly. We've also made the difficult decision to not add further stretch goals until we're ready to deliver on our existing promisses. We'd rather deliver everything on schedule then keeping adding more! That said though, I'm confident we'll catch up ahead of the campaigns conclusion and we have plans to add what we're calling the 'Gatling Mortar', additional crew, accessories, and hopefully more!

Once again, thankyou to everyone who has supported us so far!

You might be interested in these new pictures, first up are renders of the unlocked Rocket Launcher addition, designed by Faolan and mounted on Kit Burrows carriage, it is inspired by the 19th century Congreve Rocket Launcher.

Secondly, we've also added a new extra, a rugged little tractor unit ideal for shifting ammunition, or even towing the artillery pieces with an option hook. Another multi-part resin kit, designed by Faolan, it measure about 5.5cm in length.
