NEW WARJACK WEAPONS UNLOCKED!
almost 5 years ago
– Fri, Mar 20, 2020 at 01:50:23 AM
Greeting Warcasters!
We’ve just crossed $400k in funding, unlocking a great Faction Stretch Goal that will add Five New Warjack weapons to the rewards of all pledge levels eligible for Faction Stretch Goal Rewards, for the factions you choose in the pledge manager.
The warjack weapons will come with corresponding weapon cards so you can get your warjacks locked and loaded for battle! As well, these new weapons will now be incorporated into the variant 'B' versions of the warjacks. And if you just can't get enough weapons, you can Add-On the new weapon pack for $10. But don't be surprised if we end up throwing a couple of new cortexes in there as well...
As mentioned in the previous update, we’re going to go ahead and unlock our $425k stretch goal early, but you can bet we’ll still celebrate if we reach it by midnight tomorrow. With 34 hours to go, there’s still time for us to hit some more goals, so keep spreading the word!
And thank you for your support!

UPDATES: $425K STRETCH GOAL, RETAILER INFO & SHIPPING OPTIONS
almost 5 years ago
– Thu, Mar 19, 2020 at 04:36:50 PM
Greetings Warcasters!
We’re in the home stretch, with just over 36 hours to go. On behalf of everyone at Privateer Press, I want to thank all of you for your incredible support, your feedback and suggestions, and for being part of the launch of an amazing new tabletop miniatures game.
As everyone across the world grapples with an unprecedented event, we know these are uncertain times, and we know that many backers have had to make difficult decisions. We understand and want you to know that all of the rewards and value offered in the Kickstarter will be honored after the campaign in the pledge manager. For those unable to participate in the campaign right now, we will keep the light on for you however long it may take to overcome the current challenges faced by everyone on our planet.
THE $425K STRETCH GOAL
While it looks reasonable to expect we’ll pass the $400k mark in short order, we know there is concern about whether or not we’ll reach the next, very important $425k stretch goal. Put concern aside, and consider it unlocked. Regardless of what the funding ticker says at midnight tomorrow night, the $425k stretch goal that unlocks Captain Jax Redblade and Baron Cassius Mooregrave will be unlocked. This stretch goal is too important to the reward levels the miniatures get added to as well as being important to the meta of the game in general by offering balanced options for Wild Card heroes across all factions. We’ll update the graphics later today to reflect the unlocked status of this stretch goal. So, if you are backing at a reward level that is set to include these miniatures as rewards, rest easy, and if you’re backing at a different reward level and wish to add them on, feel free to do so now or later in the pledge manager. We’ve come to far and we’re not going to end this campaign without Redblade and Mooregrave.
RETAILER PLEDGES
After many conversations with our retailer backers about how we can tailor purchasing options to best support them, we want to let you know that all qualified retailers will receive their 50% direct-to-retail discount on all items pledged for now and in the pledge manager, with no minimum quantity or case requirements. We hope this will offer the most flexibility for you to customize your order to the needs of your customers. This goes for all items offered in the Kickstarter, including any models unlocked as stretch goals during the course of the campaign.
SHIPPING OPTIONS
For our international backers, in addition to the Super Saver Shipping option that ships all of your items in Wave 4, we will offer a ‘First and Last’ shipping option where you can have all Wave 1 releases shipped in our first wave and then the remainder of your rewards consolidated to ship in Wave 4. This way, you can get started with the game at the same time as everyone else, but can save on some of the shipping fees by not shipping in every wave.
Expect more updates as we cross stretch goals and march toward the final minutes of the Warcaster: Neo-Mechanika Kickstarter campaign! And thank you again for backing this project and joining us on our journey to the stars.

Greetings Warcasters,
In the two weeks since we launched this Kickstarter campaign, the world has changed. COVID-19 has become a reality for everyone across the planet and we are watching our lives and every-day routines impacted in real-time.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the individuals and communities that have been affected by this global crisis and we are thankful for the many medical professionals and first responders that are working so hard to provide care and comfort to those in need.
We are grateful for the opportunity we have to produce games and miniatures and other worlds as the playgrounds of imagination. In these uncertain times, we take great solace in being able to share what we do with the passionate and enthusiastic community that plays our games. We thank you for your continued support, feedback and encouragement and we hope that you are safe and well in the days and weeks ahead.
As we move toward the final days of the Kickstarter, we will continue to provide updates and share any new developments around Warcaster: Neo-Mechanika. It’s hard not to be fixated on the world-changing events, but we hope we can provide the occasional moment of respite when we’re able to post the latest model render or artwork that has just finished up.
To that end, I wanted to share a rotation of our favorite gun-slinging Marcher hero, Artemis Fang, as well as a render of the variant weaver for the Aeternus Continuum.
Enjoy! And be well.
