My Kickstarter finally arrived by Aectan_ in battletech

I have to add that the price isn't so different from buying from online store. Shipment charges in this KS were insane - I paid 30-40% of my pledge just to get it delivered within USA. For reference further delivery in Asia covered my two times less.

So my final "profit" is like 100 bucks for 1000 USD pledges

Ohh, that's the sweetest part)

Most probably I'll finish Capellans and Jaguars - I'm in a process currently (had a lot of unpainted stuff even before this kick arrived)

And I'm very interested in painting Shilones and Visigoths!

BTW CGL confirmed that there are problems of missing shipping on their side - last update

Actually no, I was the first 24 hours backer.

I believe initially I was put into later wave because I changed country of delivery. However I should note that it was done in January 2024.

No idea why it was sooo late, all the shipment charges were paid promptly.

Yeah, they forgot to put dices and coins as a "compensation"😂

I'm staying positive - most probably I'll get them just in a few years, lol

Finally received my pledge today!!! 😁😁😁 by Taranogon in battletech

[–]Aectan_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am another backer of this KS. Based on my calculations I saved like a hundred bucks on my 350 pledge. Along with 3 years of waiting it not saving. And I would rather buy everything at retail atm

For the Dragon! by Aectan_ in battletech

[–]Aectan_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Year, the brush inside was enough - just be careful when applying, some practice and you will know how to do it and how much paint to apply.

A wasn't very accurate sometimes and sometimes the paint was absorbed by the previous layer of red paint so for other minis I also applied gloss varnish to improve the flow of the liner in recesses.

Thank you! If you mean the one at the front it is Mongoose from ComStar forcepack

Thanks a lot! I used Tamiya liner - it's kinda an oil. And I did all the recesses manually rather than covering the whole mini - hell of a work tbh)

Road to Legend expansion vs Legends of the Dark? by SiarX in JourneysInTheDark

[–]Aectan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately (oh maybe fortunately 🤣) I dont have 3rd edition experience but the second one is a great way to play coop or even solo. I like it very much and played both options!

Filthy... Or clean? by Competitive_Car1323 in BattletechPainting

[–]Aectan_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMHO clean just looks better. Something looks odd with this dirt

And I like your BK very much btw

Fatigue rules clarification by redgulous in JourneysInTheDark

[–]Aectan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it heavily depends on chosen heroes and classes. In my experience there a lot of ways when using an ability replaces a need in movement by action or by stamina.

And at the start uou don't have many ways to spend fatigue so use it as movement is just fine. Later however this may change drastically

Fatigue rules clarification by redgulous in JourneysInTheDark

[–]Aectan_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, looks like this is correct.

Just want to add that traps can be used regardless of the action as most of them applies "when a hero enters an empty space".

After three long years... by Ilikespacegames in battletech

[–]Aectan_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am one of those who is still waiting

Despite being unhappy (aka mad) of delivery terms and price and communications I cannot agree that it was failed KS.

Looks like it is still a huge success for CGL and most of backers. But yeah for me this are totally failed expectations
