Sold! Love Mars Attacks, even the 90s film everyone seems to dislike.

I want to hate this but it seems like it might have some cool stuff to use for conversions........ (also the movie was so bad it was priceless)

Kickstarter is live (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1744629938/mars-attacks-the-miniatures-game).

Martians are nice, soldiers are nice. Hero characters are crap and the female character is an abomination that would have been bad twenty years ago let alone now. Quite disappointed.

Feeling a little more positive about this, lot of nice stuff has been unlocked, Martian saucers and so forth. Also 3/9 of the civilian heroes are heroines which isn't bad. Possibly 4/9, the blacked out figure looks like it could be female...

I am ridiculously excited for this project, and oddly excited just following the kickstarter (really just found out what they are all about). Really looking forward to making the weirdest Tau army ever outta this stuff.

If anyone is interested there are a couple of 300USD Bloodshed on the Battlefield pledge levels available which offer the best value for money for the Kickstarter, 75 dollar game plus 325 credit so 400 in total.

Ack ack!

Mantic have opened up a new 300 pledge level that gives less credit than the above mentioned Bloodshed on the Battlefield but it still a good middle option.

Also if you pledge 350 and 500 respectively you get:

A Martian Supreme Regent based on this:

And a diorama based on this:

They have also unveiled a render of a Martian Science Division trooper:

Mantic have added a new pledge level where you can pledge 1USD and add whatever extras you want, with free shipping in the UK and US. So if you just want a pack of martians and/or a robot or flying saucer you can get that now.:)

It also just reached 465k, unlocking the alternate bits for the human truck:

And at 470k:

Bit disappointed, I was hoping it was going to be another heroine.
