Thank you everyone for making our first Kickstarter an amazing success. We raised over $150,000 USD CAD in Pledges from over 1000 Backers to get molds made for new plastic miniatures.

We will be doing an update on the Kickstarter page at least once a week for our Backers, from now on. Early next week we'll make the Pledge Manager active and import the Backer information supplied by Kickstarter. Once that's done we'll send out a few test invites to make sure everything works right and then you will get an email invite to setup your account. The Pledge Manager is where you will decide on the composition of your rewards and pledge for additional add-ons.

We will announce plans for the still locked Kickstarter models in a future update.

Thanks Again!

We are now in the final days of the Heavy Gear Blitz – War for Terra Nova Plastic Miniatures Kickstarter, which ends this Saturday afternoon, November 22nd, at 2:04PM EST.

We want to thank all our backers, old and new, for their support. We started the project with a modest goal of $27,000.00 CAD to pay for the very expensive molds needed to make a Basic Starter Set of 16 plastic miniatures. Now, 27 days into the project, we have unlocked 14 main stretch-goals and numerous mini-stretch goals, and are at over $112,000.00 CAD pledged.

We now have an amazing Backer Reward Core Starter Set which includes 47 plastic miniatures, color quickstart rulebook, backer patch, plus a lot of free downloads. The true retail value of all the individual miniatures included in the Core Starter Set is over $300.00 CAD. You get it all for a pledge of $115.00 CAD (about $100 USD) plus shipping of $15.00 CAD for U.S. and Canadian backers and actual shipping cost for international backers. That's a cost of less than $2.50 CAD per miniature compared to our pewter miniatures cost of $8.00 CAD or more each.

If you're brand-new, please start by viewing our main War for Terra Nova Kickstarter page and scrolling down, we have images there of what's included in the Core Starter Set, the stretch-goals, add-ons available, and images with links to our pledge calculator, free download Beta Rules eBook and our Facebook page. Plus way down on the page there are info graphics for the four factions included in our Core Starter Set and our shipping FAQ.

Once you're there, check out our Update #57 – we have gathered all the important updates since the Kickstarter launched, to get new backers up to speed fast.

Below is an image of the Core Starter Set showing all the 47 miniatures included, to see what an amazing deal it is. Please share it with friends and support our project, all help is very appreciated.

Thank You All!
