Prodos Games

Yes to the engaged tile question. It's a desperate thing peeling bugs off your friends back with an assault rifle. If you aim it mitigates the combat penalty and preds* are comfortable in CQB with most aliens anyway.

2nd edition is due for release soon. So it makes sense that your having issues getting a copy. 1st edition isn't in print. 2nd should be released for order by your store soon. If you look into and not your store I bet you could get a general release date for your area. I found out for me it's this month.

Maybe...I would hold out if it was me for the alt marines (depending on current gaming needs, but I dont really "need" more marines at present). After seeing the new ones on bases next to the old ones the new smart gun marine is the only one that looks noticeably smaller.

I own a good deal of PRODOS models from both AVP and Warzone, and I am overall very pleased with the quality fo the sculpts and casts that I own.
I have had to clean some modles more than others, but I havent had any real bad offenders yet (I own probably 200 models from them).

Those look awesome. Good job man.

i agree if there are issues which Prodos have no control over then these can cause delays, HOWEVER, a LOT of backers seem to have had their stuff which doesn't excuse Prodos in any way re those that haven't.

if there were issues from other companies causing non shipment NO-ONE would have had anything and that is clearly not the case.

so IMHO Prodos don't have a leg to stand on...

Fair enough.

Yeah I am actually ok with the scale change after seeing them on bases. The MG model is the most noticeable, and I can always imagine thats just a female marine.

EDIT: By the way I love the green stuffed bases Good job with those.

Lame, well have you tried this:

Thats what I used before and I got my stuff in about three weeks (heads up they didnt reply to my form that I noticed, but I didnt really seek out a reply from them). I just sent the form in with a picture of my work table with the mairnes on it missing some arms.

Another example of the risks involved in backing is the REAPER BONES line KS. A company in China was producing all hte models and then they where to be shipped out for distribution by REAPER. The company/ies in China held the models and wanted to renegotiate their contratc "after all the orders were filled and ready to be shipped". REAPER has no control over that happening, and people paid out a ton of money and all their stuff is sitting in containers in China (last I heard). Kick starters are always a risk, and yeah its shitty fi you dont get your stuff, but anyone who does back a project needs to really "read" the agreements and the "risks" section. Business ventures go south sometimes.

Not sure. Last time we spoke about it he just said he was still waiting for stuff, but to be honest it doesn't matter what any backer is still waiting for as after three years every backer should have everything they paid for and especially as v2 is being pushed out

Just because we are gamers we shouldn't expect any different treatment than any other purchaser of goods

Don't you think it's shitty that if people have a go because they feel pissed at not having their pledges that they then get banned for saying as much

Just shows the sort of people they were dealing with from the start. Glad i missed the KS

Sort of agree, but if FOX and then the UK cause delays (outside of PRODOS's own delays) then as a backer you shouldnt be blaming PRODOS. Those are production and development issues the KS plainly laid out as possibilities (As a backer I took the risk funding). We didnt really "purchase" anything, and thats why it's hard for me too be as frustrated as you are. I have backed projects where on half the goals got meet, and I am not going to get my money back (backing is investing its not "purchasing" there are no guarantees). I dont blame you for being cool with not having backed the KS as it hasnt been a quick turn around or fully achieved its goals yet.
