Do see the '(Crowd Funding) Venus 1888 is now live!!' post.

Others find the cost daunting; okay, so did I, but they ARE lovely.

Hi Folks,

Some stretch goals, possible postage relief and free stuff!

I am going to have six stretch goals at this time but since the art isn't ready here is a brief outline.

A mechanical mule for the artillery to include stacked rifles and stacked packs. Randomly shell your opponents in style! Almost done as we type!

Chatty Cathy, A Victorian style Reporter based loosely off of the Famous Nelly Bly.

Curious Kate, A Victorian Photographer with her Kodak camera trying to get a snap of the Dinosaurs on Venus before they snap her.

Gurty Gun, An American Gunslinger from Toledo who doesn't plan to take any guff from anybody. Some say she smokes!

Poor Penny, A London orphan and the first child stowaway to another planet! Her plucky stories of survival in the orphanage will leave you brimming with overconfidence, which can be dangerous on Venus with dinosaurs and cannibals running around.

Retro Ray guns, Replace the slap with a ZAPP! The infantry pieces are sculpted with their hands and rifles as a separate piece which plug in nicely. This add one will convert the Ladies to a more modern feel for the more popular Sci-fi games.

Dave Soderquist the lead Sculptor for this campaign has committed to these and their concepts are complete. I see for every one hundred dollars donated,one will be free with the others being available as add-ons.

I also plan some relief on postage and handling based on the size of the order. My first thoughts are to simply split postage after 100 dollars or four packs with the backer. Crowdfunding campaigns have to be careful of postage costs with the chunk Kickstarter grabs but in the end my goal is to make these as affordable as I can.

Thanks again for the awesome support, these minis actually made it into Wargames Illustrated scout page!!

EU Friendly! Awesome! Things are gonna get crazy indeed!

Is there a way to buy packs with no cavalry at all?
Also, what of orders to Oceania?

Dark Fable18 Mar 2017 10:17 a.m. PST

Only 3 days left to this really cool campaign! Definitely need to get some of those recent add-ons! The photographer and tracker are must-haves!

Is there a way to buy packs with no cavalry at all?

I know I've answered this elsewhere, part of the problem with duplicate posts.

There are packs with infantry, OR with cavalry, OR with artillery, OR with command. You get to pick and choose. As for antipodal delivery, I ASSUME you can get it, though you won't have a 'AU friendly' reshipper to ease the cross-border cost and other burdens.

In a weird way, while I may not join in monetarily, still, I support the effort.

Best of luck!

Doug
