If the creator of this Kickstarter happens to frequent this forum, could I suggest that the locked goals include images of the figures associated with them. Doing so might encourage more backers if they can see what the next few goals are, thus unlocking them more quickly.

They are quite large for '10mm' minis.

The rule looks to start about .5mm below the foot, given that this guy looks to be about 10mm to the eye.



That's what I (and most sculptors I've talked to) would consider 10mm. Most of the Warmaster infantry are 10mm to the top of the helmet though.

I guess the more important issue is how they look next to other 10mm manufacturers.

Although I won't be backing this KS, (my Bretonnian army is complete), I'm concerned that the figures on offer so far are mostly cavalry. Whilst the cavalry looks very good, only 3 foot figures makes for a rather unbalanced range IMHO.

Agree with Andys, was tempted but lack of variety of infantry put me off.
