Fairly sure I have some field positions but they seem to do a lot more now. I particularly like the ruins. I have added the link to the suppliers sticky Ironclad Miniatures UK

Thanks for the post. Not clear on the physical models part (Don't use a printer) but its seems you are saying they won't ship until the rulebook does in November, is that correct?

New pledge has listed. It's a great starter set for those new to the game. I am hoping they can sort out UK manufacturing as I could go for this pledge with add ons maybe. First Encounter! We have been working immensely hard to make this a game that you can love. But equally as importantly, making sure that you have a way to be introduced to the game. The community is immensely important to us and we are watching and listening to you all. We have seen the feedback and want to follow up with action. Thank you deeply to everyone who has invested us and in this game. We love what we have made and we want to give you all the opportunity to enjoy this fantastic game. For all who started years ago, and those coming into it for the first time. www.kickstarter.com/.../abb.../return-of-the-tripods

Having finally gotten a chance to look at the Kickstarter I can not decide on the three ways of doing it for me. One way is to go all in and get the two army deal $300. Two is to buy the book and cherry pick units. Three is go digital as stated by Quendil above. Pros and cons for all three above, Thinking it will depend on how much $ I will have at the end of the kickstarter. The book is too costly for me but would be interested in picking up a few martians but with no shipping costs it's too much of a risk. Also Nov 2024 seems a long time considering they state everything is already done apart from the book layout

To get a little more bang for the buck I suggest only 3 or 4 figures to a base. Yes if you do that you will have to redo the figures you have already. I plan on re-basing my figures to four to a base. Will have an odd figure or two but I can find a job for them in my army. Yes I did think of that but I have loads based like this and it would be too much to rebase them all so will keep them the same. When I get some Gurkhas I will base them two to a smaller base as skirmishers

Well the new kickstarter is not really for me (Although I wish it well), unknown shipping and imports costs, already have a prussian army and the change to the timeline. Although I will pick up the rulebook probably as a PDF if they do release it that way and maybe a some martians if they get a UK seller. It has however inspired me to dig out my AQMF stuff that I have not built or finished. I have a Texas army to build and paint, British Indian Army, an Egyptian detachment for my British North African Force, a French force to build and an American Ironclad to repair and paint.
