Exciting times! I have finished painting the test model so its nearly time to set up the indigogo campaign! Hope you like the look of the walls, Ive gone for a fairly weathered look without any icons just to show that it can be used for a range of games.
The walls themselves measure just over 3ft long as a set, so enough to end a table edge if you play length ways (giving artillery a chance to soften up the defences before they are assaulted!). They are 4 inches high to the standing platform and the towers around the gateway a huge 11.5 inches tall!
All in all a massive structure to fight a monumental battle over at either 6 or 10mm.
Knowing that it is never going to be a high selling item as people often dont buy terrain when they can spend money on parts of an army I have projected prices at selling around 10 of the sets shown below. After the cost of the casting, mould making and 3D printing the cost for a set will come in around £140 plus postage. However, if more are sold then when we reach stretch goals buyers of a set will get more free bits (I have a forward bunker that match the aesthetic of the towers already made). I will also have three sets for £130 as an earlybird option for those that get in there quick.
The first stretch goal will also allow the different components to be bought seperatly so you can add to you city defences without having to buy a whole new set or if you want some very opulent looking walls they can all have the extended towers normally only found around the gate.
I am just waiting for some models from a friend to take some scale pictures to show how awesome infantry look (the battlements are the perfect height for infantry to fire through the gap is they are 6mm in height and on a standard base) and how the gate dwarfs even the large Baneblade tanks for epic (in fact a standard GW Reaver titan should be able to walk through) and I hope to have the crowdfunder up by the weekend.
