Games and Gears Battle Boards

[GrimDwarf]

Games and Gears are currently running a Kickstarter campaign for their line of Battle Boards and terrain pieces - [URL="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/554355176/games-and-gears-battle-boards?ref=live"]Official Kickstarter page[/URL]




Working with companies like Ninja Division, Hawk Wargames, Cipher Studio and Mantic games they have developed amazing quality Battle Boards that can be clipped together to create fantastically cinematic battlefields for Dropzone Commander, Deadzone, Anima Tactics, Helldorado or literally any tabletop miniatures game.

If you had a chance to pledge on their last Kickstarter, for their paintbrushes, you'll know the kind of quality work these guys are capable of achieving.

So what are you waiting for?! Get on to Kickstarter, pledge and let's make sure we unlock all their stretch goals together!

From the Games and Gears Kickstarter page:

Dear all,

We hope you are well. We here at Games & Gears are elated with what we have achieved together. Let's rally together once more and spread the word. We have collectively done amazingly well. Beasts Of War have covered our battle boards. The Mantic guys geeked out on the Anime Wars & Dropzone Commander Cityscape Battle boards at their Open Day, gamers loved them. We are truly humbled by the industry and gamers a like. Your infectious enthusiasm makes us want to innovate more. Thank you for your commitment to this project. For those of you who have just joined us, hello & thank you. For those battle hardened veterans of this campaign who have been with us from the start, we salute you!

New Pledge

Pledge £110 or more Limited (75 left of 75)

Pick & Mix Battle Board (6by4) Select a theme then pick and choose which designs and how many you want of each up to a maximum of 6 designs. Tailor your battle board to your specification.This reward is for one Games & Gears 6 by 4 Battle Board, select one of the five battle board themes. FREE SHIPPING TO: USA, UK, EU, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, JAPAN & SINGAPORE. EVERYWHERE ELSE PLEASE ADD 26.00GBP TO YOUR PLEDGE FOR SHIPPING. Estimated delivery: Jul 2014

This pledge allows you to customize your battle board with specific user design choice. If you want 2 or more 6by4 Battle Boards as this choice, please add on the the amount for multiple additions as in the Battle Field load out. The discount for extra boards is the same as the Battle Field option, as the cost of logistics, production run, man power and extra time is all factored in the initial "Pick & Mix Pledge".

This pledge is also limited to 75. If it sells out we will add more up to a total of 150. We are trying to be careful and do this pledge right; as we want to leave no room for error and make sure you get the right custom sets you have chosen.

What is the difference between the Normal £110.00GBP Battle Board and The Pick & Mix?

A: Smaller limited quantities. This is not something we can do en mass, or there is a good potential of further delays for the "Pick & Mix Backers", so we have limited it to get them to you in relatively good time. It also reduces costs variances on our side as we need to insure a good run on all the moulds for the battle boards.


Here is the new Fantasy/Steampunk Battlement:





The Fantasy/Steampunk elevated terrain piece will be up this coming week,

Our Warmsith Terrain Line are available in three themes:
