Will the 2/25-2/27 weekend still be enough time for that?

Unfortunately no...we are planning on recording our DFC segments on Saturday.

Bringing this thread back from the scrap pile...

It's funny, reading back over some of the comments that we all made during and immediately after the KS campaign about how White Dragon made a few questionable choices in the running of the campaign, their stretch goals, etc--maybe those were signs about how badly delayed the pledge rewards would be. We're coming up on a year since we should have received our starfighters. Pretty disappointing--this looked like it was going to be a pretty sweet game. It may still be, but as we have no concrete delivery date, there's no telling when we'll be able to experience it.

I've totally written this game off.

I haven't written it off, I'm just disappointed that we haven't seen our stuff yet. Hoping WDM gets their act together and gets us our stuff before the end of 2018.

New update was just posted (#31). Looks like he’s making progress on casting, with a few hundred ships already made. Aiming to ship by the end of February.

Fingers crossed!

New update, number 33...seems he's finally gotten someone to help him out. Even includes pics of some ships that have been cast. Moving in the right direction, slowly.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Funny, funny man.  :D

Seriously, this KS is so late that when (if) we get our stuff it'll be like discovering a new game.

Bringing this thread back to life
The latest update from White Dragon Miniatures came. He sent out the backer kit stuff again so that folks could update their address. If you backed and haven’t seen the email yet check your other folders. I had to update my address.
I also saw what I had originally backed, which I completely forgot, just can’t remember what any of it looks like ::)
We’re nearly 4 years from the original end date of the Kickstarter. I’m still essentially skeptical, but it seems there is progress.

Bet you a Coke that we don't see it before 1 June 2020. :) I mean, I'm hoping we do...don't get me wrong. But I won't be surprised if we don't. I don't think the guy is dishonest, I just think he bit off WAY more than he could chew and had a run of bad luck with some stuff. But I'm in the same boat, at this point I can't hardly remember what I pledged for or even what it looks like. We'll definitely need to do a Front Range Shattered Void day either in Denver or the Springs once we all get our stuff.

Ah, an optimist!  The project is yet young.

Ha! I wouldn't say this is my worst Kickstarter experience. That dubious honor unfortunately goes to the last Dystopian Wars Kickstarter campaign, wherein I pledged money but never got anything.

Well, I owe QuickDraw a Coke! Got my starfighters today. Everything looks in order. Ships are very detailed and the models are beautiful. Pics to follow soon!
