Hello. I finally did a game play video. It's not as exciting as the actual game. 

Live unboxing video!

Hello, here's a wonderful little video Spud aka Wargamer Viking did with some mystery boxes I sent him. 

You can also watch minature painter Jess have a look at some of out miniatures here: 

We're nearing that target now everyone. Please do what you can. Thank you from the bottom of the Dread Sea! 

Now buckle up, less than 24 hours to go!

One Last Add-on: The Dread Sea Trolls
over 5 years ago – Sat, Aug 03, 2019 at 08:23:42 AM

Hi all and thanks for the awesome support so far. We should be good to fund at 6pm, but if you want to help us be extra sure, we're adding on last add-on!

See the concept art below for an idea of the finished miniature and then the work in progress from our sculptor of oure first Dread Sea Troll. 

The miniature is being sculpted now and will include the goblin as per the concept art.The sculpt is being done by the same sculptor as all our other miniatures, so if you're struggling to imagine the additional detail, bare that in mind.

You can add this to your pledge by adding 15 pounds to your total

Hopefully we'll be confirming the project has been a success in just a few hours!

Thanks as ever for all the support.

  Durr duh  duh durr, dulluh duh duh durr, dulluhdurdurdurrrrr...

It's the final countdown!

 Thanks for all your support and shares everyone! We're about 90% as I write this with less than 36 hours to go - so if you haven't pressed the little Twitter and Facebook icons on the main page to share with your friends - PLEASE DO NOW! That would be awesome. 

Add-Ons

A couple of people have asked about how they add on extras, such as the cards, dice and play matt. All you need to do is add the £ amount to your current pledge level, and you will be able to clarify what you've pledged for at a later date. 

Community Suggestions

A couple of other people suggested that we could/should add rules for a race of Ratmen to the rulebook. So we have. At the moment the rules and background are in a PDF on the Facebook Group, but they will be added to the next version of the rulebook. 

Thanks everyone, and don't forget to share again! Fingers crossed for the last push!

Ahoy, and evening all! We're at around 67% as I write this and thanks once again for backing. The main reason for tonight's update is simply to say that we intended to get a gameplay video up over the weekend, and whilst we were able to film the video, we're really struggling with the editing software, which just keeps stopping. So we'll find something else and start again. Our apologies. In the meantime remember that you can download the beta rules for free from the Facebook group -  https://www.facebook.com/groups/687257624962365/ -  and now also from www.deadearth.co.uk 

We've had loads of great support from you all in sharing and talking about our game so far, thank you! Keep it up and we'll fund come Friday, and the adventure will really begin!
