Hey guys just a heads up that Critical Mass Games is launching a new Kickstarter Campaign at 22:00 GMT today to fund the Ayame Battlesuits and Protolene Infantry in 30mm.



The Video is up on you tube here: http://youtu.be/PKfY_hblWlU

This all looks rather nice

I have long reckoned that some of the existing 15mm walkers would make great 28mm walkers with the simple addition of a scaled top-cover/cockpit. Especially these ones:



I tried to add a cockpit but mine looks rustic compared to the rest of the walker... so a Critical Mass version would be much better:



All it would take is a single piece of resin that plops on top of the existing mech... just a thought...

Back on topic, The Ayami battlesuits are probably the best ones to start with because they aren't too massive and will probably have a lot of appeal to the Tau players out there (amongst others). They are also tailor made for lizardmen/tigermen/Kroot/Beastmen etc due to the leg patterns.

I am tempted to get on board... but I have no idea how they would fit in with my armies... some thought is required.

One thing I will say is that Critical Mass products are superb so I would have no qualms about joining this kickstarter where quality of product is concerned.

Good luck CMG... not that you'll need it .

Hi Inso, thanks for the comments, they are certainly worth looking at if we up the ante into the ARC Fleet after this campaign

For now however you will have to settle for some updates on the current campaign which is now live and has been updated with more detailed pictures of the Ayame Size, Pledges explanations and Avatars for backers.

Join us on Kickstarter here

Thanks

Craig @ Critical Mass Games

p.s. Inso did you ever finish sculpting those little guys you where working on all that time ago?

No... sorry... 15mm is tricky

My son bought a few of the 15mm suits to use as 28mm robots ... bigger ones sound interesting ... how tall will the 30mm scaled walkers be?

Hi Archie

The 30mm Version will stand around 70mm tall, hope the pictures below help with understanding the size.



The variant most pictured in the campaign so far is the that of the Ayame Hunter Battlesuit, but each 30mm Ayame Battlesuit kit comes with 3 pairs of arms as standard, giving you much more choice in your build.
