This one looks interesting.
75mm models engaging in a 'one on one' fight using cards and dice and interactive terrain and scenery.
I'm gonna keep an eye on it :)

Your right - that's an interesting scale.
Good painters are going to be able to pull off miracles with these "minis".

honestly, I would have loved to see this game marketed as a card-based tabletop game rather than a miniatures game. For something like this, I'd rather see the miniature as a really nice add-on to an otherwise solid game, like how most pen-and-paper roleplaying games wind up.

I totally agree with you Bigred.
I'm hoping for some detailed gameplay videos.
I really am very interested to see where this goes :D

These are big (3") resin models, but I don't understand the need for what appears to be a Lost Worlds type battle game. Why?
Just sell the models to be painted.
Or sell the game for a few bucks.
But I really can't see gaming with such models.

I'm looking forward to gaming with such models :)
It's something a bit different which appeals to me.
I like miniature games, I don't like card games. If this hadn't had the miniatures I wouldn't have even given it a second look.
Different strokes for different folks :)

Hush, you. It's obviously not Drizzt, because if it were, he'd be a dual-wielding Drow Assassin.

I quite like the female concept art, but I don't really need a set of models I can't use for any other game system. also not to keen on supporting yet another game where female characters are basically an afterthought.

These are all Scale 75 models so far, which are absolutely beautiful, I already have the Abyssal Lord, or Deretor as he's called here!
However, it doesn't look like the models you'll actually get with the game will be the actual Scale 75 models shown in the Kickstarter, but rather, slightly simplified recasts, I'm worried about a loss of detail

That sounds bad.
Can I ask how you have come to that conclusion?
I can't see any evidence of that but I'm not the sharpest tool in the cutlery draw.
EDIT
What material will the model in the starter sets be made from?
The models will be made in PU (polyurethane resin) resin. It is the most common resin used to produce model figures.
Are STARTER SETs models painted?
No. The models contained in all Starter Sets are assembled (except base) and unpainted.
Can I get painted characters?
Yes. If we reach 20k pounds stretch goal, you can select your models included in the Starter Set painted.
Are the Duel Fighters models the same as Scale75 models?
Models designs for Duel Fighters are the same offered in Scale75 but the number of pieces and material is going to be changed to be produced in PU resin. The number of pieces is going to be reduced because they are going to be assembled inside the box.
Paint Quality?
Models will be produced and painted in China by a supplier specialist in Toy Soldiers production so, the expected quality is like a Toy Soldier.
sounds like the models will be fine, especially as you can choose to have them unassembled and unpainted which would be my preference.

Just watched the gameplay video. I can't say I was super excited. I do like the models though.
I think that right now I'd rather dump my money into the Batman Miniatures game.
I'm gonna see what stretch goals appear though.
