Pledge Manager - Smoke Test
about 1 year ago – Sun, Feb 23, 2025 at 05:11:10 AM

Hi everybody,

The Pledge Manager setup got approved, and I will now send a 'smoke test' to 5% of the backers to see if everything works as expected.

if that goes well, then I will send the rest of the surveys within the next 3-4 days.

Also - here a new and free STL that we're hosting on TrenchStench. Hah!

Cheers,

Kawe

And the Red Brigade will rise anew!

We're fully funded, so let me take this opportunity and express Thanks to:

+ Max Maurel for his incredible sculpting work and art direction
+ The original TC team for their input and especially Tuomas for his work on the lore and the rules
+ Seb Lavigne for painting the minis to an incredibly high standard

Special thanks to:

+ Dimitris Kampouridis - For additional Sculpting 
+ Tara Dillenburger-Keenan for his work on the Crimson Shadows 
+ Alex Shoemark and Derek Johnson for their work on the rules for mounted units
+ All the other artists, writers and crusaders that have lend a hand with making this a really outstainding campaign

And of course, thanks to all the backers for your support!

Here are the next steps:

1. Kickstarter will collect the funds from this campaign. This will take about 2 weeks.
2. After the funds come in, we will open the pledge manager where you can confirm your choices and flesh out your army. The pledge manager will be open for about 4-5 weeks to give backers time to sort everything out.
3. When that’s done, we will start digital and physical fulfillment.
4. STL files will be sent via MyMiniFactory, and the physical models will be sent from Strange Plastic in the US. Production for the physical minis has already begun, so the first parcels will leave the warehouse shortly after the pledge manager is closed.

After the fulfillment we will make the Red Brigade files available to the public via MMF, physical miniatures will be sold via trenchstench.com

If you have questions or suggestions, then please reach out to [email protected], we’re always happy to help!

Future plans: We will certainly do a range of Trench Crusade Compatible miniatures. These will be available through our upcoming tribes page, as well as through our MMF shop. Physical copies of these minis will be added to trenchstench.com.

And here is a little preview of the madness we’re working on for Trench Stench!

The heretic priest!
about 1 year ago – Sun, Feb 09, 2025 at 05:17:13 AM

We've crossed the 500,000K line which means the heretic priest got unlocked!

The STL will be added to the digital Red Brigade tier and the physical mini to the physical Red Brigade tier. It will also be available in the pledge manager.

The mini is based on our design for Mork Borg's Heretical Priest, and he is a real fav of mine.

Hah!

The last mini for the new mono-pose bundle is here
about 1 year ago – Sun, Feb 09, 2025 at 03:02:11 AM

Hi everybody,

The campaign is almost over, but we've managed to get all the new mono-pose minis ready!

So here is the last one, or rather last two. A wounded hero and his brother in arms, fending off a heretic horde!

I've also updated the Red Brigade Digital tier graphic.

So - unless we hit 500K, which would unlock the heretic priest, the next update will be about what happens after this campaign!

Cheers!

Kawe
