Hello Dwarves & Trolls!

A call went out for the Shield and King Bust so I've put them up as Add-On's. We also have our first Stretch Goal shown and I am slowly showing more as we move along. I am excited to get to these!

Tomorrow I will be at Expedition Prototype Con for pretty much all three days. It would be awesome if you want to stop by and say "Hi!", and crushed some dwarves!

Thank you for your support!

Hello Dwarves & Trolls!

Thank you very much for a glorious first day! I am just going to say that we are half way there! As I type this we stand at $5,381, 44% Funded, 111 Backers with 32 days left to go. This is all because of you so I can't say 'Thank you!' enough. 

Surrounded

This morning I set the game up with some prototype pieces and took a few pictures. Here you can get a close-up of what to expect for the miniatures. Bear in mind that these are prototype pieces and I still need to add details to everything you see here. More time needs to be spent detailing the game board and sculpting the miniatures for final production. 

Poor Troll! He just wants to be left alone with HIS Relic!

Painting and Modding (modify)

If you feel so inclined you can paint your miniatures and modify the Great Lances, which are just toothpicks. Why toothpicks? Well, I wanted something you could easily remove from of the Dwarven Lancers hands and that are easily replaceable. The toothpicks are a lot of fun to modify, I quickly added color to them with a bronze and silver Sharpie marker!

The PROTECTOR Shield
about 7 years ago – Wed, Feb 22, 2017 at 09:30:13 AM

Hail Dwarves & Trolls!

Three days into the campaign and we are 66% funded! That's awesome! Thank you all for an amazing start! I'm really excited to push on with our Quest into the Troll's Lair.

Making of the Protector Shield

I wanted to show you a bit of what goes into making a 3D object into a physical prototype. Although this print will not be the final Master that I send off to be made, it still gives me a good idea of how the final product will feel in my awesome Backers hands. So, I made one using a home printer and brought it to the game store for good luck, and it worked. TROLL SMASH!

The shield dangles like a bat after its made from the pool of resin. With lasers!

I pry the piece off of it's metal bed and plop it down into a nice bath of alcohol.

The shield takes up some UV rays that will cure and harden any uncured resin.

I then break off the supports, test the weight, bring it to game night, crush my enemies and drink lots of soda!

TROLL Feed!

Hello Dwarves & Trolls!

We are all 77% closer to having big stinky Troll feet right in our hands! It's been an incredible push to get where we are and man am I tired, and a bit queasy. The support you have shown is incredible and I really appreciate it!

Live Troll Feed 

Today at around 12pm EST I will have a live feed up on Twitch showing the board and everything else that comes with Dwarves of Iron Peak. Twitch.tv is a live broadcasting website that's easy to sign up on. Here's the link to my channel  https://www.twitch.tv/grigzzy   Grigzzy is me ;)

A few things I will be doing live are:

  • Answering questions that you might have
  • Taking complaints you might have
  • Showing close-ups of the miniatures
  • Showing you how easy it is to transform an ordinary toothpick, into an awesomely powerful Great Lance
  • Fending off dogs, kids, and other things that enter the room (Im so sorry!)
  • Muting the video, for the reasons above and eating cookies and drinking soda

I hope to see you there! The video will also be recorded so you can check it out anytime.

The Dwarven Lancer

Did you know that the coolest thing about the Dwarven Lancer, besides his good looks, cool beard and his 100 ale holding belly? He's able to remove his Great Lance and jab it into the foot of the Troll, pinning that foot to the ground. 

SUCCESS! Unless the Troll can make a lucky 6 roll on it's turn, his foot is pinned!

TROLL SMASH TIME!

Your support is awesome!
