A ST3 slayer that becomes ST7 because he has to push something heavy around? Doesn't work for me and I'm glad Iron Golems have at least addressed the issue.

I like the dozer, the sculpt is exactly what I expected after seeing the concept art. I can understand why people expecting a machine were able to project that onto the artwork though. Actually hoping it doesn't get changed too much.

Not too implausible to me, to be honest. If I ran into you with a full shopping trolley, it's going to hit a lot harder than if I just ran into you. Same principle applies.
Look at the Fanatic, he's not S7 because he's some Goblin Schwarzenegger, it because he's swinging a massive chunk of metal around.

Oh please, let's not argue about logic in a fantasy footbal game, okay? :orc:
We aksed for a slayer dozer and we got one.
The team still looks incredible and I hope the campaign goes up soon!
Should be today, shouldn't it?

Thanks to all for your comments and interest! :)

We're working with Pedro Ramos to adapt the current mini adding the mechanical aspect but keeping the current frontal appearance.

Remenber, the campaign goes live in a few hours and there are some early birds and a few surprises waiting :)

I take it you don't have this mini then? :)

Still, fair enough, and sorry (to all) if my post came across a little harsh - it was meant in a light-hearted manner. And I still prefer the Forge Suit!

Yeah one of my mates said that, but the fanatic has rules to reflect the momentum and the force of it swinging, it's not just a simple +5 on his original ST2

If you ran into me with a full shopping trolley, that would boost you from ST3 to a ST4 maybe ST5. If you rammed me with a steam roller though...... Which is the point, it's representing the deathroller, not a shopping trolley/wheelbarrow. I agree though, it's not entirely implausable, but some of us are a little obsessive over these details (I know. I know). Same reason I avoided the "deathroller" slayer with the huge spiked ball from Meiko (that I just noticed Birdman linked above) :D .

I wouldn't call it an argument, more a debate between people with a common interest and since it's an opportunity to feedback to the manufacturer, constructive criticism should be expected as well as praise, I would hope.

Oh yeah, I like the Boomer concept too.

I bloody love it when people have calm, reasoned discussions on forums... Keeping the trolls on the pitch.

And yeah... That bomber is ace. Still loving everything about this campaign.

As someone who's never even been remotely tempted to play as dorfs, let alone buy a dorf team, I'm sorely tempted to buy this team.

Keep up the good work :)

Keep cool, peo!
Indiegogo-campaign is about to start in about half an hour.

I hope I can afford them completely and neither campaign nor production will take to long.
