Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
Is there any word about when mini set 2 will be available for orders.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
Last I knew, Set 2 will not be getting a standalone release. Instead, it'll be packaged with the Battle Box, which is Set 1, Set 2, a rulebook, and a poster-paper mapsheet.
If there are left-over "Player" or "Many Minis" kickstarter tiers once fulfillment and pre-orders are filled, they might also be put up on W23, but that's a big "if". SJG has been getting out of the habit of large over-prints of stuff like this, because of how much money they have to tie up in it versus how long it takes to get them out of the warehouse.

The inventory has not yet reached Austin. Once everything lands in our warehouse, then we'll do a final count and decide whether or not there's enough left to post for sale.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
Please be assured I will whatever possible (within budget limits) to keep those W23 shelves clear of Set 2 minis.
Think I might need to clean out another Set 1 GITD. |

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
This was a harsh and cruel Kickstarter with no pledge manager option to add-on later and stretch pledges across billing cycles, and I don't recall that it came with an up-front warning of pledge now or you'll never get another chance to change anything or buy sets of just Minis 2.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
Like all Kickstarters, I viewed this one as a potential "one and done" affair. But another one (or two) Battle Boxes seem to be calling my name. I mean, 1600 minis should be enough, but it feels like it isn't just the same.

By crafting the Ogre projects as "choose this reward, get these things, no add-ons," we can avoid the issue of having too much excess inventory. With Set 1 -- where we offered add-ons -- we found that we had to produce some of the add-on items even though there was little actual demand. We're looking to avoid that problem again.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
We may have a few Many Minis boxes to post on Warehouse 23 (a very few). If we do, we'll likely list those at the more realistic $150 instead of the ridiculous deal that was offered during the Kickstarter project.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
But the Mk VI and Dopp Kickstarter is forthcoming and we could have Combine sets some time soonish so you might want to save some cash for later.

Re: Warehouse 23 - ogre mini set 2
I've gotta agree with both of you (Phil and Cat)...not being able to buy a bunch of extra Fencers was a heartbreak, but I also understand why you guys did it...Backerkit is right around 5% off the top plus 5% of BK sales (BK's fee + Stripe's fee), the "whoops" moments during Set 1's fulfillment had to have cost a fortune, and wholesale distribution isn't much different from retail, you still have "shelves" & dead stock on them still kills.
That said, I was genuinely surprised to see the Many Minis box at under $100 per during the KS. When it was mentioned that the 'cost per set' had come down, I was figuring on them to be right around the price of the Armory. Don't you ever sleep?
