GhostTrainGames | [Kickstarter] Alternative Civil War 1861 Live on Staturday April 26th! |
Member Since: July 30, 2013 Initative RK: 1 MP: 0 | Tuesday February 18, 2014 8:20 PM Hello all. We're proud to announce that the Alternative Civil War Kickstarter will be live April 26th. Alternative Civil War is a 28mm scale miniature wargame set in an alternate background where impossible science collides with ancient magicks and weird beings clash with courageous soldiers on the American Civil War battlegrounds. If you find this an interesting project, you might check out more about us and our game, including background, art and miniatures at our website, where you can also find out the alpha version of our rules, fully free to download at our rules section. You may notice we've set up the newsletter already, which will allow you to keep in direct touch with the progression of this upcoming game. This is a major waypoint for us, and we're soon launching a small raffle to commemorate it. Stay tuned! Last but not least, we're really happy to hear any of your feedback. The opinions and comments of the community are really important to us.

Let us determine to fight and die here and we will conquer. Follow me! Rally men! Rally behind the Virginians!” Hello all! To commemorate that our newsletter is ready, we wanted to launch another raffle: March 15th we will draw a winning name that will get one copy of this miniature. You can visit our website for the full info. Best of lucks! |

We think that will be a date more positive for our backers,as it fits better with a month-starts-month-ends formula. We apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused. Stay tuned, we will be unveiled a lot of stuff in this two weeks countdown." Check: http://ghosttraingames.com/important-announcement/ Regards |

Member Since: July 30, 2013 Initative RK: 1 MP: 0 | Monday May 5, 2014 8:01 AM BIG NEWS, BIG CHANGES - STARTER SETS IMPROVED & MOREHello all backers and friends. We want our ACW campaign to reach as many players as possible to build a great game with a great community. We have heard the feedback received about how to improve the campaign, and this is the result: MORE MODELS ON EVERY STARTER SET WITHOUT INCREASING THE PLEDGE LEVELS! North & South Starter Sets are now comprised of 9 models, while Spain and Natives of 7 (large models have a significantly higher production cost). Here is the break-down: North: Brig. Gen. William Sherman + Lieut. Ambrose Bierce + 2x FEB Coil Projector + 5x Infantry Regulars = 9 miniatures! South: Major Stonewall Jackson + Old Veteran + 2x IMLS m1861 + 5x Infantry Regulars = 9 miniatures! Spain: Marquis-General Ponce de León + Becerrillo + Inquisition Prosecutor + 4 Infantry Regulars = 6 Infantry + 1 Large miniatures! Natives: Great Chief Tecumseh + Living Totem + Brother-Bear + 4x Bravos = 6 Infantry + 1 Large Miniatures! Remember – this applies to all Pledges Levels without increasing your pledge amount. Furthermore, we have created two new pledges – Two-Players and Four-Players Starter box. These boxes will contain the Backers' choice of, correspondingly, 2 or 4 Faction Bundles, plus Token & Dice Sets (48 or 96 tokens, 4 or 8 dice), a printed version of the rulebook and the usual digital goodies. Shipping worldwide included, as usual. Faction Bundles consist of: North Faction: Brig. Gen. William Sherman + Lieut. Ambrose Bierce + 2x FEB Coil projector + Freemason Alchemist-Rifleman + FEB Barrager + 7x Infantry Regulars = 12 Infantry + 1 Large miniatures! South Faction: Major Stonewall Jackson + The Black Halls + Old Veteran + 2x IMLS m1861 + MASS m1861 + 7x Infantry Regulars = 12 Infantry + 1 Large miniatures! Spain Faction: Marquis-General Ponce de León + Becerrillo + Inquisition Prosecutor + Guardia Eterna de la Fuente + Grand Duke Abigor + 6x Infantry Regulars = 9 Infantry + 2 Large miniatures! Natives Faction: Great Chief Tecumseh + Living Totem + Brother-Bear + Ancestor Bravo + Sasquatch + 6x Bravos = 9 Infantry + 2 Large miniatures! All this for merely 89 (2-players) or 169 (4 players) GBP. These Faction Bundles will also be available as Add-ons for 49 GBP each. We will be also creating non-miniatures Add-on Bundles so you can customize your scenery and gaming accessories. Some of these models added to the factions have been taken from the stretches, so we added more models there too! Remember the 30k and 35k Stretch goal grants even more free miniatures! All these changes have been made at a great personal sacrifice, giving up the pre-campaign investment that came out of our pockets, and reducing margins but we believe it is in good order to reach a larger player community that will enjoy our awesome background, unique ruleset and excellent miniatures. This is a huge effort, and we kindly ask you to spread our campaign with everybody through your usual forums, blogs, social profiles (facebook, twitter, youtube, etc) and sharing our news, so we all can achieve a campaign as great as possible. Be part of the history! Thank you all kindly, the GTG Team. KS Link: http://kck.st/1feMIKY |
