We are now in the final 2 days of the Heavy Gear Blitz – War for Terra Nova Kickstarter, which ends this Saturday afternoon, November 22nd at 2:04 PM EST.
We want to thank all our Backers, old and new, for their support. We started the project with a modest goal of $27,000 CAD to pay for the very expensive molds need to make a Basic Starter Set of 16 plastic miniatures. Now 27 days into the project we have unlocked 14 main stretch goals and numerous mini-stretch goals and are at over $112,000 CAD Pledged.
We now have an amazing Backer Reward Core Starter Set which includes 47 plastic miniatures, color quick start rulebook, backer patch, plus a lot of free downloads. The true retail value of all the individual miniatures included in the Core Starter Set is over $300. You get it all for a Pledge of $115 CAD (about $100 USD) plus shipping of $15 for US and Canadian Backers and actual shipping cost for International Backers. That`s a cost of less than $2.50 per miniature compared to our pewter miniatures cost of $8 or more each.
If your brand new please start by viewing our main War for Terra Nova Kickstarter page and scrolling down, we have images there of what’s included in the Core Starter Set, the stretch goals, add-ons available, and images with links to our pledge calculator, free download Beta Rules ebook and our facebook page. Plus way down on the page there are info graphics for the four factions included in our Core Starter Set and our shipping FAQ.
Here is a link to our latest update, for new Backers, we gathered all the important updates since the Kickstarter launched, to get you up to speed fast.

Thank You All!

What’s the general consensus on this? I like the scale, the look of the minis, and the background looks cool. But I’m already playing DzC, and I’m not familiar with the ruleset.
Also, I’m not sure if anybody in Australia, is going to play it, so I’m kind of hesitant. The aussie forums haven’t been full of chatter on heavy gear 🙁
The game has excellent mechanics, a cool setting and good minis. In the past, the only thing that’s held folks back is the rules being used to learn. The book was written in a way that made it really difficult to pick the game up. But, once you learned it, folks like it. I’ve been playing it for years.
