Well, there's certainly material for at least 3 sets, without even using the alternate vehicles. The next set will probably not include all the Ogres (currently no I, II, IIIB, Fencers, IV, VI, Dopps, Ninj, Vulc), and there are many other hardcore things that would be nice and that I would buy but are not truly necessary (various Infantry, including Militia, large bridges, city hexes, rubble, buildings, Lasers, craters, ridges, etc...). I mean, if you really let loose and gave the hardcores everything they want, you could easily fill 5+ sets (7+ if alternate vehicles are available).

I certainly hope there will be a demand for at least 3 sets - otherwise we won't get all the Ogres. I mean, at a minimum you'd want a couple I's, a couple II's, a IIIB, 2 Fencers, a Dopp, a IV, a VI, a Ninj and a Vulcan, that's 12, enough for a whole "set" plus.

I think I remember reading that a Mark IV ( and maybe a Fencer also?) would be part of Set 2.

As my connection to Ogre stems from before I was born, you could say that I'm a bit excited, oh yes indeed.

Depends on how it sells. I suspect that SJG will continue till it doesn't make financial sense.

Want more? Buy the current ones.

I cannot wait for this set to come out. I did not get in on the Kickstarter! I completely missed it. But I am hopeful with the popularity that I will be able to order in the future anyways.

I believe the alternate color sets were Kickstarter-only, but the basic Red Ogres/Blue Paneuros set will absolutely be in stores. It's a hell of a deal, too - over 40 minis for $40.

Yeah, I'm in for 10 sets from the Kickstarter, and of course I do have about 2000 of the out of print metal miniatures...

They did a straw poll wkith the KS asking if people wanted the rest of the Paneuro vehicles, the Combine vehicles, etc. IIRC the current favorite is the remaining GEV/Shockwave vehicles for Paneuro, a MkIV and a Fencer.

But nothing official has been said of the contents of Set 2.
