It's an interesting concept and some nice model, but I think it will suffer from having a fairly niche appeal.

[Mr Mystery]

Not for me I'm afraid. They're nice enough models, but it's nothing most couldn't convert for themselves (Orc's armour aside).

i like the idea of undead from other races... but still converting undead orcs is extremely easy. not really worth a whole army in my opinion. maybe undead lizardmen or something...

[eldargal]

I'm not too fussed myself to be honest, apart from the flying squigs. Greenskins are my least favourite army. Still, I like to encourage smaller companies so I'll be posting a few updates for this from time to time,

[Skeith154]

i have a small force my self but it was mostly trolls and the wyvern that i liked about them.. and that giant spider.

[Wolfshade]

I love that orc vampire

There was an old Dogs of War regiment that had undead from different races (orcs, skaven, dwarfs and maybe elves IIRC). Sadly out of print now but there are probably ones kicking around on ebay.

I really like the Jawbats (flying squigs) and the throne.

I'm quite tempted by the 500 pt pledge so I can get two units of the Jawbats but I can't see anywhere to put the remaining 60 pts. If I upped it to 1000 I'd include the throne for sure.

Unfortunately this campaign is competing with the Reaper Bones and Ouya ones which i'm more keen on so I don't think I'll end up backing this. Doesn't help that they're not adding in decent freebies for stretch goals like the more successful miniature campaigns have done.

Well in all the excitement of the Reaper and RBG Kickstarters I have to admit I forgot about Titan Forge. However they are doing quite well, after a slow start. 7666 out of a stated goal of 10,000 (with room to expand of course) with four days left. I wouldn't be surprised if it hits 10k now, these things usually have a big upswing in the last few days.

I've pledged the basic amount for 500pts of miniatures, which I think will end up being two packs of Jawbats. OR Jawbats, the Orc Vampire and some Orc ghosts.
