We've almost breached 6k of the 10k goal, and me and Tim are working on some nifty add ons that soon will be available without taking away from the backer resources. IE no change of stretch goals, just bonuses to help demand.
Fantasy Additions
Fans of historical, Mortal Gods, Roleplaying or Just the Option
I will be asking Tim to set up a slinger sculpt. The female mold has an option for us to squeeze in some ranged weapons, and we believe it can help diversify a hunters batch. Initially, we can try putting in a part, or for $3 we can create a 3 pack of slings tailored to the fauns. Let me know which you would prefer.
Sci fi additions
Mutants, Gangers, the Chance to finally get that Abnormal Human Beast regiment? This quick bash of some sci fi parts was meant to show how we can take a tribal set up and make it work in different settings for your table tops. As a bonus for helping us getting us this far, we will be adding an add on pack of 3-4 rifles of similar idea below, representing undisciplined bestial warfare.
Here is the cool part, initially we will offer it as pewter for $3, but if the group shows great interest, I can help set up a small mold sprue to get those costs down to $2, or roughly enough to net 4-5 guns in plastic, custom tailored to the fauns for a delicate fit. Greater support we can even start adding them as bonuses.
As always, let us know what you think, Thank you for backing us thus far!

Regarding Add Ons

Alright, so we have had some confusion regarding add ons, and this is here to address some concerns, if at any point you have any questions, I will be answering each question personally.
The intention of the kickstarter was to unlock goals, and unlock the option to customize your pledges. I had two solutions available, recommend using the $1 goal and readjusting to the levels that suit you, for example, a warband set is $30, but if you wanted to add a sprue, you would pledge 6 bucks. Raising a custom pledge to $36.
Second solution was backerkit. The purpose of backerkit is to give me a conventional webstore for the backers. It's more intuitive, and is easy to add stuff via a shopping cart before calculating pledges. Its designed to sync up with the backers email, during the final survey pledge. It also connects itself to the warehouse for later shipping.
Pledge Add ons
- Bases- Available after kickstarter
I intended this to be available on the backerkit store after the kickstarter had ended. Bases were going to be available wholesale, averaging .15-.20 US cents. We can have customized 20-25 mm circles or squares. 100x80 MM flat wood bases averages out to about $1.50-$2.00. Wider bases, $3-4.
Faun Sprues
For small custom kit bashes, we are intending distinct sprues to be available as the molds are made. The male mold sprue is available to be used, so can start off people' s collections with an initial 3 bodies and weapons. Also a great way to keep even numbers of fauns for when the centaur goal is unlocked, and you have warbands you want to use for other purposes
The female mold will follow a close idea to the male mold, but some hand weapons may change, for example, an axe for a club, or an overhand sword with an axe.
Male Sprue $6
Female Sprue $6 (unlocked at $10,000)
Extra Parts Sprue $6 (unlocked at $20,000)
Command Sprue $6 (unlocked at $42,000)
The extra parts sprue and command sprue will thus be available as unlocked.
Faunus01
Faunus02
Faunus03
Faunus04
Shamans
These await a production order after the kickstarter, each shaman is 28mm scale, has two head options and the parts below. They make great support casters in Kings of War or games like Sigmar and Warhammer Fantasy. Also designed from a standpoint to be great war leaders in trays.
Pewter Shaman Female - Unlocked- $7.50
Pewter Shaman Male- Unlocked $7.50
Minotaur Brute $6
One of these is offered in the base pledges, but for those that want to support us with smaller backing, the Minotaur here is a customizable pewter model with three poses. It is 40mm in size.
- Minotaurs- Unlocked at $11,000
- Centaurs - Unlocked at $30,000
Idea is to offer the centaur bodies in poses such as this below, and with masking elements (to cover torsos on top of kit). Enough to pull off amazing spear combos and archery aspects with the faun sprues. If we can find enough space, we would like to include some heads and some torsos.
Based on the opinion polls, people were deadlocked between having bases below. We will be thickening the legs as a precaution.
The kit was supportive in nature, and meant to enhance the faun kit, so we will be having a reflective price of $3 for 2 horse bodies.
The $60 mark we will throw in 3 of these sprues. At the $120 mark = enough for 20 bodies
