Catch Up On Fallen Frontiers Google Hangout & Last Few Hours!
December 3, 2014 by brennon
Last week we talked to the guys from Megacon Games about Myth, Mercs and more and we've decided to keep up the trend of Google Hangouts with a chat to the guys from Fallen Frontiers currently running on Kickstarter! Watch it above!
Update: Final few hours on Kickstarter! Find out a bit more concerning the rewards and pledges you can run with during the final day or so of fundraising...
First up we have the actual main content of the boxed game that includes a whole mess of things for you to get started with as well as a choice of the different factions you can run with IN the boxed game. This is an awesome thing for the guys at Scale75 to make available to backers and it means you're not stuck with armies you're not overly fond with. A good reason to split your pledge with another person too actually.
Of course there are then quite a few optional extras for you to check out and if you click the image above (open it in a new tab for a better look) you'll see some of the optional extras that can bulk out your pledge and give you a whole load of additional miniatures and more. There's also their campaign book which is awesome!
Check out upcoming heroes like Lee Jenkins above in his rather impressive looking battlesuit. Clad in his Vulkan Exo-suit he's quite the deadly battlefield asset.
Here's a little about The Damned from the folks behind Fallen Frontiers...
Zerobyte: A Sayx assault soldier. His assimilation process by the harvesters was interrupted during an attack on the necrofactory where he was being held. Half human, half machine, all his memories were lost in the transformation, anything before Zerobyte doesn’t matter anymore.
Kyra: Since Kyra’s release from the operators she demonstrated a rebellious character, prone to disobedience. Never seeing her integration into the Ares army as a liberation, for her it was nothing but a change in the color of her armor. When the independence wars ended, Kyra decided to enjoy true freedom. The freedom to wear the uniform of the enemy if necessary.
Val'n Dorr: Val'n Dorr grew up in a troubled colony. As the daughter of diplomats she learned from a young age that an open mind that can adapt to the situation is more likely to survive than unwavering loyalty. Her father sent her to study at an Ares military academy, where she learned to use weapons. No one better than him knew that diplomacy has its limits.
Whatever your questions might be drop them in the comments below and we'll put them to the guys from Scale75 tomorrow during our live chat on Google Hangouts via Youtube and you can see if your questions are answered.
Game mechanics, narrative background, miniature quality; whatever you might want to discuss about their reboot Kickstarter they have addressed it!
What do you think of the Kickstarter?

Lee Jenkins? Is the “Lee” short for anything?…
In other news, looking forward to this one.
I’ve pledged and the miniatures look amazing.
The art and sculpting is quite incredible. The fluff describing some of the heroes and a little bit about the factions is intriguing. I’m curious if there are plans or if they have thought of commissioning short stories, novella’s or novels to fill out the history of the fallen frontiers universe?
Cannot pledge for this one, but I am happy to see them get going. Will keep an eye on it.
Who did your make-up, @warzan? You look like silent-movie star! lol
lol yup
I have a cool Harold Lloyd thing going on he he
I think its the weird lighting setup here in the suite. I will pester @lloyd to see if he can do anything about that in case we have to do it from here again.
Interesting game mechanic.
Yep, already pledged for this one. Going with Sayx vs Riff boxed game, and Ares add on. The unlocked free heroes means I can added them to the Ares and have the equivalent of the Ares faction if I had them in the boxed game. Cheapest way to do it.
Sayx vs Riff would have been my choice also.
I would love to see an in studio discussion and demonstration of Fallen Frontiers. Perhaps next spring when the production of the mini’s are well underway. What do you think Warren? Is it possible?
I’m still sad that Bianca’s pose isn’t more like her concept art. I backed just to get one or two characters and now.. well, it’s just going to be one 🙁
