Last Few Hours! Dropfleet Breaks Through More Stretch Goals



There are 6 hours left (almost 5 now) of the Dropfleet Commander Kickstarter. Its been a huge success, and the last day has been crazy watching the numbers pile on. There are new stretch goals, including some secret ones......... that have been released to us, and there really is not much left to achieve. Tbh I expected a very successful kickstarter, but this has far went beyond what I thought. Great company, backed by great people that care deeply about their games.


Lets take a look at where we are now.

Newsflash for Dropfleet Commander Kickstarter
With the hours counting down to the end of the Kickstarter for Dropfleet Commander, we thought we would do one last Newsflash for everyone about the campaign, and what exactly has been unlocked!

First of all, we have to say a massive thank you to everyone who has backed and spread the word about this Kickstarter so far. We are overwhelmed by the support we have been shown. We are so excited about manufacturing this game and developing the final elements. There is lots of work to do, but before we set about doing this, there are still some hours left to go...

In these last few hours, it would be fantastic to see the remaining rewards unlock:

£575k - Faction Specific T-shirts
           - Free Hawk Pin (to High Rank Backers)

£600k - Free to High Rank Backers: Set of Activation Cards

We have also unlocked a hidden extra:

Due to the success of this campaign, we will be including a printed full colour Backers Guide to Dropfleet Commander for every pledge level backer. This will include all assembly information for every ship on this Kickstarter, along with special scenarios for the Civilian Cruise Liner as well as some bonus KS exclusive ones, Special rules for the KS battlecruisers (for friendly play - the models of course can be used for tournament play), Painting guides for each faction, Tips on building and growing your fleets and some exclusive Background and Artwork!






From Earlier This Morning.......

Update #31 - A busy night and morning... The unlocks so far!
Posted by Hawk Wargames
With a little over 10 hours left to go, we have smashed through two more unlocks. Thank you all! Here are the unlocks:

The Scourge Space Station Resin Scenery Upgrade Pack
Bolt-on £15


This is an add on pack for the Modular Space Station Pack, so can be used to upgrade all or part of a Space Station to make it look Scourge infested.



And...

The Kickstarter Exclusive PHR 2-UP Ajax Class Cruiser
Bolt-on £30
This Kickstarter Exclusive 2-Up model will come with a custom acrylic flight stand and will be unassembled and unpainted, meaning you can pose and paint this Ajax Class Cruiser the way you want to. A perfect collectors edition model for your hobby area, bookshelf or even, mantelpiece!


We still have a few more great unlocks left, but we also wanted to let all backers know about a hidden reward that has also been unlocked:

Due to the success for this campaign, we will be including a printed full colour Backers Guide to Dropfleet Commander for every pledge level backer. This will include all assembly information for every ship on this Kickstarter, along with special scenarios for the Civilian Cruise Liner as well as some bonus KS exclusive ones, Special rules for the KS battlecruisers (for friendly play - the models of course can be used for tournament play), Painting guides for each faction, Tips on building and growing your fleets and some exclusive Background and Artwork!

There will at least be one more update coming later today, which will have more about the free rewards, including the all pledge level backers T-shirt, and which may well also contain some photos...

Thanks a lot... let the final countdown begin!
