Und noch was ausm Hause Hawk, direkt von FB:

It is a little past midnight here in London, but we wanted put a quick post up to thank everyone for their feedback that we have had so far regarding the planned pledge levels for our Kickstarter Campaign for Dropfleet Commander. We have been reading many of the comments and posts, and have taken stock of people's thoughts. Due to this feedback, and after considerable considered discussion, along with some other external advice too, there will be some small tweaks that will be made to the Pledge levels which we previously announced.
We will be putting out a short update before the campaign goes live. The rest of the information will be presented live on our Kickstarter, where there will also be a selection of other images and details that will be new to everyone! We have pledge values set for each pledge level, but wish to finalise the last few things, to make sure that final information that we put out to everyone, is indeed that.
Once again, thank you for your feedback and patience - Friday is very close now, so hopefully we can present a Kickstarter Campaign that is both exciting and fair for everyone who backs, and that will allow us to put Dropfleet Commander (and if it is more successful, all four faction starter Fleets) into plastic from the game's launch.
For anyone not yet on our Dropfleet Commander Newsletter, you can sign up here: https://confirmsubscription.com/h/j/793196AAA4F19A0F

A Newsflash will be going out (as quickly as we can) to let everyone know when the Kickstarter has gone live.
Thank you again!

und ein Update bevor das Ganze heute live geht... scheinbar haben sie sich die Kritik zu Herzen genommen.


It is under 24 hours until we hope to have launched our Kickstarter, and as a final update before we get going, we wanted to share some thoughts as well as a few slight tweaks to what we had planned before. These have come about, as we mentioned yesterday, from a mixture of the community's response to our newsletter with the proposed pledges and rewards, and conversations with some trusted industry colleagues:

1. Regarding the UCM Kickstarter Only Battlecruiser - this is now no longer going to be limited (in terms of the quantity that are available on the Kickstarter). However, due to the nature of what it is, it will be only available (as a reward) with the Captain and Admiral Pledge levels, and only from this Kickstarter Campaign.

2. Having mentioned the Admiral Pledge levels... After considerable conversation and feedback, we have decided to combine these into 1 pledge level (with a combined limit). If the Kickstarter goes even reasonably well, the value of the Rewards that people who back at this level will receive, will be completely worthwhile. On top of this value, is the Beta Access - this comes in 2 parts. The Beta Rules (signed by the team and sent before the proposed Test Days), and the Beta Test Day. The Test Day will be a great experience, but this is only a part of the rewards that a backer receives from this "Everything" Pledge.

3. Going back to Battlecruisers, we are happy to confirm that if we are successful in hitting our initial goal, then we are hoping to unlock Kickstarter Exclusive Battlecruisers to go along with each race that is on the Kickstarter. These will be available as Bolt-ons that can be added to any pledge.

4. Our focus is on the Faction specific Plastic Starter Fleets and the 2 Player Starter Set, because the aim of this Kickstarter is to ensure that we can launch Dropfleet Commander straight into plastic from the beginning. Hopefully, if it goes well, this will also launch along with the Shaltari and PHR in plastic too!

We are really excited about presenting many more of the models tomorrow on the Kickstarter, along with demonstrating the flexibility that we have endeavoured to create with both the game and also with how the sets have been designed. This flexibility is best shown by the options available from the Starter Fleet boxes: There are approximately 8-10 Cruiser variants (ships which will have rules) and 4-5 Frigate variants, for each race. More of this will be shown off visually tomorrow, on the Kickstarter. The plan is currently for a launch in the early Afternoon (UK time), but we will of course send a message out when the Campaign is up.

We will finish this short update with an image of the Kickstarter Exclusive Battlecruiser for the UCM (that we have had a number of discussions over). We always aimed to do our best in our plans for this Campaign, and we are grateful for all the support we have already received! We hope that you will continue in supporting us by making this Kickstarter a success. We look forward to seeing what Dropfleet Commander can achieve, both during the Kickstarter and beyond.

Thank you

Ich muss sagen, dass ich es nicht sonderlich klug finde, die Regeln nicht vorab zu kommunizieren. Man kauft quasi die Katze im Sack. Und nach dem kurzen Beschuss-Video was es im Internet bereits gibt, bin ich nicht sonderlich von den Regeln überzeugt. Vor allem nicht von einem "Burn-Through"-Laser.

öhm das Gencon Video? Inzwischen ist ja etliches mehr bekannt und es gibt auch mehr Videos... schau mal bei Beasts of war vorbei...

vorallem: wie willst du die Regeln vorab Kommunzieren wenn sie bislang nicht finalisiert sind?

Es sind ja zum Glück keine echten "Exploding Dice" zumal so wage Kritik natürlich schwer zu beurteilen ist, wie Darios sagt gibt es schon mehr Infos. Dazu finde ich es unklug einerseits zu klagen es gebe zu wenig Infos über die Regeln andererseits schon eine Meinung zu den Regeln zu haben. Ich denke nicht das das Regelsystem an einer bestimmten Waffe hängt auch wenn der Beast of War Mensch diese so sehr liebt. Die Quantitative Orientierung scheint ja eher zu Railgun oder zu Raketen zu gehen.

hab ich schon.. aber nur rudimentär weil ich nicht weiter dazu gekommen bin... Siehe hier

und die Shaltari sind da!

Und es gibt ein neues Update:


Dear Dropfleet backers,
Firstly, we want to say a huge thank you for all of your support. We are very proud of Dropfleet commander as a product and we always had high hopes of exceeding our pledge target, but none of us expected the explosive level of pledging that we have experienced.

Planning out the stretch goals for a Kickstarter involves a certain amount of educated guess work and flexibility. Although we have planned a series of stretch goals, including the unlocking of both Shaltari and PHR factions, we had expected the unlock process to much more gradual. This was to ensure that we didn’t promise too much and be unable to deliver, or indeed over-promise and then be unable to hit our original goal because of huge amounts of extras to delivered. As a result it will take a little more time to calibrate full range of stretch goals in order to ensure the we don’t exhaust them too soon and also to make sure that the rewards reflect the level of support that the community has shown.

We have mapped out the stretch goals up to the £150K mark and will be reviewing the next series of unlocks tomorrow (The PHR will be among them, and give the levels of support we’ve had so far, almost certain to be unlocked). Hawk Wargames are a small but dedicated team, and we appreciate your patience as we adjust to meet the demand. You can rest assured that there are plenty of goodies to come and all of our backers will be generously rewarded for their support.
Kind regards,
- The Hawk Wargames Team
