March 19, 2015 Update
We are four days away from our Kickstarter ( Monday, March 23 at 12pm EST ) and we have been hard at work trying to finish up our Cavalry and add some more concept art so you can visualize each of our Stretch Goals. We placed some new pictures of our digital sculpts for the four different cavalry variants and added some new art for war machines and support heroes. Check out our pictures on our website or Facebook page.
