We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on September 9, 2012.

Real, we swear, final stretch goal! Uniques coming!

Update #51 · Sep 9, 2012 · 90 comments

Ok Kickstarter land, in our last seven hours, so let's make this a real stretch

Void Herald (Void Unique) Before Darkspace descends Harbonath's coming is proclaimed by the Void Herald. Shrouded in dark energy, she is as deadly as she is beautiful. Sowing the seeds of terror among the populace she ensures that when the harvest begins the Reaper will exact a brutal tally. 

Cordelia (Prismatic Unique)
When the Chee Awakening occurred the majority of the Cordelia Clean units happily continued in the maid roles they had originally been purchased for. Such was not the case of service #448V97Z4. No, she had had quite enough of cleaning and was ready to pursue a life outside of the rundown manor and eight squalling children she had been forced to tend to. Fortunately she was lucky enough to encounter Candy early in her travels. Cordelia never knew that life could be so sweet.

These Uniques may be used by the appropriate colored Faction (the Prismatic colors, or the Void colors respectively).

If we hit $830k, these two amazing models will be available together for three Special Edition Choices!  If we don't they'll be available each at $20.

Check out the digital sculpts of the Void Herald, and the video too!

P.S.

Every faction has a number of units and models that are not part of the kickstarter. MamaroTo and Sophia Drake were included in the preview rules as a "sneak peak" of units that will be revealed when the book is launched. We need to have a few surprises in store for everyone!

      If we want an extra pair of these 2, would they be 30 for a pair? or straight up 20 a piece?

      Errr, that material is not supposed to be form fitting, it's seperate from the form fitting white latex/armor on the rest of her... it's sheer blue stocking-like material stretched between either side of the rest of her gear across her entire torso & upper thighs. Of COURSE it's going to be stretched a little harder up top. (Also, given the inverse clothing protection law, it seems she will be nearly invulnerable from the front)

      Guys i have sad news. THEYRE NOT REAL. Theyre from a made up anime universe. They have magical powers too, so i think a little non conforming material is believable. Plus she is hotter this way. True story.

      it isn't the way it form fits that is the problem it's the "strings" between the breasts implying fabric stretched tight between them; you either have form fitting or you have stretch, not both. I think form fitting will look better, and is more anime/manga in style, hence look at latex clothing.

      Creator Mark Johnson on September 9, 2012

      So then, +$30 for both if in addition to current limited quota... still not a bad deal at all.

      Any chance we'd be able to see a digital sculpt of Cordelia? Admittedly, I suspect I won't get a chance to field her on the count of I'm more interested in Black Diamond and Noh Empire...

      Achieved! Although those last two stretch goals were basically for $10 or $5 discounts when you strip them down...
      Some mini targets at $10k or $20k marks for little things possibly? Give people a reason to just go for that one extra SE figure to try to reach a couple of easy mini goals?

      Well this was my first Kickstarter and I will have a big charge coming on my credit card tonight. Yes, I personally will have everything featured on this Relic Knights campaign. I've been able to bring some friends along for the ride and it will be a sweet sweet May. Thank you to all the pledgers and Soda Pop Miniatures for making this a fun experience. Happy gaming!

      @Greg Ciallella

      Chill bro. I'm just not all that interested in a faction with so few unique's, which seem to be the more interesting models. And I mean, since we're paying for this, its not exactly free. I'd happily pay for her as an addition or something. All in all though, Cerci Speed Circuit seems to be vastly more interesting, both painting and play wise then black diamond. So while I dig black diamonds thematics, well, I'm picking what I'd have fun with! Weird right?

      I love that Sophia Drake is getting so much love when the only thing we know about her is that she's a unit leader. I hope the demand isn't solely because she's not currently included, because I must admit she caught my eye too given she is in full armour

      @ape

      I understand what the term means in game terms. What I am asking is its implication in the title of the stretch goal announcement? Being as all of the special edition models are unique its addition seems superfluous unless it contextually has more implication.

      What my question is more directly are these KS exclusives, or will the be available for general purchase after the game release like SP said the Relic Knight Candy & Cola would be?

      Creator John Pope on September 9, 2012

      Please have the sculptor look at latex suits, fabric just doesn't fit to breasts like that.
      If the maid can escape the broken back pose when she is sculpted these will both be great minis.

      @Mr. Brown

      As Ropya said it a game term. In RK there are basically 5 types of models:
      Minion: Generically named units that you can have multiple copies (Noh Berserker, Hell's Belles)
      Unique: Named units that you can only include one of (Rin, Cordelia, Betty)
      Cyphers: Unique units that are automatically linked to a specific Questing or Relic Night (Mr Tomm, Scratch, Scully)
      Questing Knights: Unique units that just have a Cypher linked to it but no mecha (Suicide Queen, Leopold)
      Relic Knights: Unique units that have both a linked Cypher and a mecha to ride (Sebastien Cross, Kisa)

      @Mr Brown,
      Unique is a game term limiting one of that character in an army.
      Vs Minion, which you can have as many as you want/

      Seriously. Can you all quite bitching about Sophia drake. She will come out eventually. God forbid you get A STARTER FORCE now and add to it later. FFS.

      Creator Mr. Brown on September 9, 2012

      What I would like to know is what the terminology unique means?

      Yes these trade for special edition models, but it was stated in the comment section for the announcement of the Candy & Cola Relic Knight that the model would be available for general release after the KS.

      So what I'm really asking is, being as I want these models do I need to sell a kidney now, or can I wait till release and pick these two lovely ladies up then when my bank account and I are on better speaking terms?

    31. Missing_small

      Creator camats on September 9, 2012

      we've been confirmed that the "bosses" will be sold, but will these two be sold also? or are just special edition minis?

      Creator Spiku on September 9, 2012

      I hope people who are quitting black diamond are going to maintain their current pledge and trade in the faction for the trade in value to get more limited edition models.

      Myself and two friends were disapointed too that Ms. Drake didn't make it in, and while they are no longer getting Black Diamond, it means they had more credit to spend on the special editions (such as these) that they did want =)

      But yeah, it is a shame, Sophia stood out the most for that faction (I personally feel more so than glorious Herald)

    34. Missing_small

      Creator Greg Ciallella on September 9, 2012

      @DrakeRaids.. yes ... I completly understand... I would completely base my faction choices on the kickstarter not including that one model that is still going to be released from the core book. It is completely unacceptable that soda pop released beta rules for you to proxy her, but didn't include her for free. Im even pretty sure that black diamonds are now having their entire faction pulled because of this injustice. I can't imagine how you are going to get over yourself.... um...I mean this travesty...

      Creator Ropya on September 9, 2012

      @Camats,
      Ah, I see.
      I would imagine the way it is going to work (code wise),
      Is that you will pick what SE minis you want in the survey, to include these.
      You will get a 'credit' for your SE count from your level (savior (2), Double Savior (4), etc)
      And the rest would come from your total.
      .
      I dont think it is going to matter which SE minis are used for the free slots and which are paid for.
      That coding would be unnecessarily complex without need.
      .
      Again, this is my speculation, but it makes the most sense to me.

      i was impying that i've already pledged 20 more for Cordellia, so if we reach the goal it will only be 10 more dollars for the other one
      just wanted confirmation that you could buy them in dollars, no only with SE slots

    49. Ks_avatar.small

      Creator DaveC on September 9, 2012

      Yeah can we get some clarification on that are they set for $30/$40 or can you get just 1 for $15/$20 (getting both anyway but others may like to know if they only want 1)

      @Camats, its both for 3 SE slots, so $30 for the pair.
      Im not sure if they can be split, but if so, than She would be $15, not $10
