Just checked out their website: That's a really cool theme for a game. Wish it wasn't 54mm though. And I hope they are around long enough to put out a rulebook and some more miniatures (I will probably get them to collect rather than play, since I'm 28mm guy.) |

Yikes! $24.99 USD for one 54mm resin human figure. I wonder how much a full-grown Tyrannosaurs Rex will cost? |

If you have to ask the price you can't afford it |

To follow up on my earlier post, I like the theme mainly because I've been thinking about doing an alternate history Old West game where the "Bone Wars" were much more violent than they really were. So the mention of Cope and Marsh as two factions in this game got me excited. But, yeah, the price is a major turnoff. I could get a fistful of 28mm minis for the price of the single figure listed. Plus, as someone else mentioned, the dinosaurs would have to be huge to be something close to the right scale. The nice thing about 28mm is a lot of dinosaur toys already fit. Anyway, I found a link with more about the company. Sounds like they are going to do a Kickstarter in October. This artwork gets me really excited (I might have to get the dinosaur-skull headed steam mech). link
