The team will have the following composition:
4 Octopus Warriors
4 Diving Bell Warriors
8 Frogmen
1 Thrower
1 Big Guy

So in theory you could use that mix for many different teams in multiple different games.

It couldnt be the greendog thalassians, could it? That would make me very happy indeed

Sorry not at this time. However based on your request ... I sent an email to Pako and asked if he'd like to join in the KickStarter as I'm willing to give him the same arrangement I have with Black Army for this KickStarter. I am currently working on frog teams from 2 angles. One is to see if I can successfully move our own Calasain team to Trollcast and the 2nd is working with a company that makes an old very dynamic snake/salamander/lizard team to see if we can move it to Trollcast under licensing.

You're truly a prince among men, Tom :)

Great work by the way, on all of this. 6 of the 17 teams in our league this season are using at least one (if not all) trollcast miniature. I can only see that ratio growing in future seasons. Fantastic stuff :)

I would love to buy the Calasain.
I would probably take anyteam I don't own in metal (and from your description I guess the second team might just be one of the 92 I already own).

Trollcast team already have an exceptionally good price/quality ratio.
And thinking that in the kickstarter they'll probably be even less expensive....mhmmmm
Mine! :)

The more the merrier! Hopefully I'll be able to announce the 4th team for the KickStarter soon. I was told today that the contract was close to being agreeable to both parties.

Tom @ Impact!
Gaesperz, Greebo, Meiko, Willy, Black Scorpion ... I hope you guys are paying attention ...

Just got an email from another company ... looks like we will pick up an 11th team for sure, possible on a 12th and 13th. So here is the summary of the teams in the KickStarter that I have confirmed now (as either $35 normal or $45 deluxe versions):

So yes ... right now if everything worked perfectly ... I'm up to the KickStarter converting 17 pewter teams into affordable full team versions in Trollcast. Rolex said they might be less expensive than getting them at retail. As a single team purchase ... probably not ... but I do plan to make it so that if you get 2 or more teams that you do get a discount (with the discount getting more on each team as more teams are added).

Now if you are asking ... why put all these teams on one KickStarter. We've found the Trollcast teams to be popular enough as a new affordable method to keep playing Fantasy Football. Rather than try and run multiple campaigns to try and get each team funded separately ... I'd rather just take the plunge and get as many teams funded as possible and get these out to everyone!

That is exactly what I was expecting.
When the campaign starts I'll spread the news to the Italian Community. :wink:

I truly can't wait.
