As a big thank you to all our lovely backers who have made this our biggest funded Kickstarter to date, I have unlocked the last 3 stretch goals to add free extra Commonwealth and Battleship squadrons plus the Meteor Storm escalation pack (msrp GBP 13).
So, with the Kickstarter exclusive extra silver Admiral's dice unlocked yesterday that gives a total of SEVENTEEN unlocked stretch goals and a heap of free swag.
Everyone now gets an additional free Commonwealth battleship squadron (3 ships and bases), an additional free Confederation battleship squadron (3 ships and bases) So, including the core game, that's 133 ship models – 41 of which are Kickstarter freebies! That does not include any of the discounted optional buy carrier and dreadnought escalation packs.
For a standard Admiral's pledge of GBP 90 that's GBP 164 worth of products plus an extra 41 free ships models and a set of exclusive silver Admiral's dice.
So, to recap what every backer will receive at the moment:-

FREE Vice Admiral Escalation Pack (worth GBP 18)

I'd love to get in on this, but £90.00 GBP is pretty steep. I do love Battle Cry, though, and I'm curious how well the mechanics translate to a space setting.

have heard many good things – just agreed to play the C&C Napoleonics with him this weekend. I would be interested to see how this system works with fleets on a table.
