End of campaign

Our fourth campaign is successfully funded. Pledge manager, Backerkit, will start in about 10 days. There will be many add-ons in offer, mostly the same as in the previous campaign, plus a couple of new ones:
$29 - Miniatures set - German vehicles (mid)
$29 - Miniatures set - German vehicles (late)
$29 - Miniatures set - USSR vehicles (mid)
$29 - Miniatures set - UK vehicles (late)
$29 - Miniatures set - USA vehicles (early)
The details will be presented in the pledge manager.
Stretch goals will count together with payments on Backerkit. Considering that the shipping fees are yet to be charged, the first stretch goal ($ 10 000) will certainly be reached, and probably the second one too. Follow our updates.
53 more hours until the end of the campaign!

This short (16 days) campaign will end in 53 hours. In our previous project, we used the services of a pledge manager company (BackerKit) for the first time and we were very satisfied with the results. During that pre-order period, we got a few new backers, and many of our Kickstarter ones pledged for some of the add-ons offered. In total, during the pre-order period, we collected $7477.
Now we will continue to cooperate with Backerkit, and the news in this campaign is that the shipping fees will be charged through them. There will also be a lot of add-ons in offer. Given that this campaign is quite short (only 16 days) and that the summer is a period when many potential backers are on vacation, the pre-order period on BackerKit will last 2 months (maybe even longer).
Stretch goals will continue on BackerKit by taking into account new payments. The current goal (high and low barricades) will be reached if the $10.000 sum is collected. We hope that this will be accomplished by the end of the campaign at Kickstarter, but, if it doesn’t happen, it will certainly be reached on BackeKit when the shipping fees are counted in.
As the next stretch goal, we announced a passenger train (a locomotive with 4 wagons) at $12.000 (Kickstarter and BackerKit accumulated). The passenger train does not participate actively in combat, but locomotives and wagons represent high obstacles through which passing nor firing is possible. They can be mounted on rails that extend to 3/4 of the board, so they can significantly change the configuration of the terrain. The location of the train at the beginning of the game is determined by the players themselves or by a scenario in play. During the game, the entire train (or the locomotive only) can also be moved along the rail, an then it’s operated by the player who plays with German tanks or it’s moved according to a given scenario.
We remind the backers that the base set already contains a freight train that plays a more important role in the game because in some scenarios it can bring new tanks into the fight.
We believe that the amount of $12.000 will be reached so we announce immediately the next stretch goal: a set of 4 improvised bunkers at $14.000. It will be 3D printed out of 3 parts: stone blocks as a shelter, a cannon, and a roof. The bunkers are placed on the board before the beginning of the game according to a scenario o according to players’ wishes.
We invite the backers to follow the updates that will be published after the end of the campaign at Kickstarter, as we might surprise you with another thing or two. It's still not too late to share the information about this project and invite people who you think may be interested in this game. In one of the future updates, we’ll present the plan for the entire series of Panzer Strike: Western Front games in more detail.
The first day

As most of you will know, the start of the campaign was delayed because the project verification by KS took longer that we expected and much longer than in our previous campaigns.
That’s why we've decided to prolong the First Day Gift period, so everyone who pledges for a physical copy before 23:59 CET today will receive this gift (4.5 hrs extra).
The backers who in that period pledge for an add-on terrain set (one of the sets that don’t include pieces nor minis, valued at $38 or $42) will also qualify for the First Day Gift.
The $2000 goal has again been reached very quickly so the next target is at $10000, where we’ve put the first stretch goal. Thank you all!
