Weird West Miniatures Fundraiser

We're kicking off our crowdsourcing campaign today at IndieGoGo to setup our new line of 28mm  miniatures: Heroes and Villains of the Weird West!


We're creating a set of minis you can use in your Weird West game as well as other Western, Steampunk or Alt-History tabletop games. After we finish this campaign we plan on creating further sets of Weird West and Alt-History miniatures, and then release an expanded ruleset for Weird West miniature gaming later this year.

We've got a great team of industry professionals working on this project - Ian Mountain will be doing our sculpting and RAFM miniatures will be handling our mould making and casting.

We wanted to create a series of miniatures that WE were excited about and we think you'll be excited about them too.


ABRAHAM LINCOLN - The 16th President of the United States. With an Axe
vs
VICTORIAN VAMPIRE - This undead Cockney geezer hitched a ride to the Old West

BILLY THE KID - Outlaw and one of the most excellent gunfighters of the West
vs
AMERICAN WEREWOLF - Tales of this wolfen fiend have reached as far as London

INDIAN PRINCESS - A brave huntress that doesn't back down in the face of evil
vs
MUMMY OUTLAW - This ancient egyptian now stalks the western frontier for victims

While under the Weird West umbrella we think they'll see use in a lot of other genres, as well as being something fans of old genre movies and tv shows will really enjoy as well.

We need to raise $3,000 in the next 45 days to pay for our sculpting, mould making, casting, and shipping the miniatures to our contributors. At the $6,000 mark we can also include an extra 2 miniatures for contributors!

This is a really exciting project and I can't wait to see the finished minis on my gaming table alongside my other Western and Alt-History figures.

We need your help to make all this happen!
