We have completed our first Kickstarter from funding to delivery! Most of our backers now have their goodies and are feverishly trimming and assembling as I type. A few more orders are yet to go out (such as Hulk sets and very large or unusual orders particularly to North America and Australia/NZ) and there are a few people who have yet to give us their shipping address! (seriously, chaps, email me). Anyone still waiting, please be patient, we are whipping our goblin slaves as hard as we can!
The inevitable mistakes were kept to a bare minimum, a few orders sent to old addresses, a missing sheet here, a damaged sheet there but on the whole we are very happy with the distribution by Wayland Games and by the overwhelmingly positive feedback from our backers. Thanks, guys!
We’d advise everyone to watch the assembly videos on our website and save yourselves some bent cardboard! http://www.battlesystems.co.uk/tutorials.html
Now, do we at Battle Systems Towers get to relax and rest on our laurels? Nope! Because barely do we catch our breath before we commence the…
Battle Systems Fantasy Dungeon Kickstarter!
We will be launching on the 22nd August 2014 at 20.00 GMT. That’s 8pm in the UK I only mention it because last time some of our more eager backers jumped the gun by 12 hours 🙂
We’ve learned a LOT since the Sci-fi Kickstarter and so this one will be smoother and leaner with a lot less umming and ahhing 😉
If you guys whip up interest on social media and forums this KS could be even bigger than the last one!
To keep you going here’s an exclusive pic:
And here’s the teaser vid we showed on Facebook.
Sci-fi terrain for the masses!
Finally, after the Fantasy Dungeon Kickstarter is done and dusted we will be selling our surplus Sci-fi terrain direct from our website. We’ve limited numbers and if those sell like hot cakes we’ll consider doing a second press and looking into game store retailing. We are very busy so don’t expect the web shop to be open until October.

I know that you said you will be selling the sci-fi surplus once the fantasy kickstarter completes but what I’m wondering is, will they be going on general sale at any point in the future? I ask because although I have plenty of terrain to be gaming with it would be nice to think that in the future I may be able to expand my collection if I decide I want some more.

I am a little disheartened that you guys are delaying selling the surplus product until after the fantasy kickstarter is completed, but i am patient and i will wait. Personally I have no interest in the fantasy terrain, it’s the scifi stuff that I really need. Please keep us updated when the scifi stuff has become available to sell. I missed the scifi kickstarter and have money set aside for it specifically.

Do you mean 8pm UK? We are on BST at present so 2000 GMT is 9pm UK 🙂

We at Battle Systems subscribe to the Mayan calendar. It’s not very accurate 😉 It’s 8pm BST.

You have GOT to print some more of your sci-fi sets and get them onto the market! These are the answer to those of us who don’t want to pay the massively over inflated prices of a certain Nottingham-based company. And as for store-based retail, maybe approach some independent traders, for this? Anyway, good luck guys, you MORE than deserve it!

Hey guys! I got my sci-fi strongholds the other day (I live in Sydney, AUS), and it’s fantastic! I’ve already built a fair chunk of one Stronghold so my 40K RPG players have something to play on that isn’t whiteboard markers on a grid.
The parts have all gone together like a dream, and I’m eager to get the guys hooked so our Pathfinder games can benefit from the next KS 🙂

Your (insert suitable noun that is not star)Gate is excellent, I shall require at least two!

That “gate” ~ Is that the terrain piece that links the Fantasy terrain into the Sci-Fi terrain…? 😉
