We are go!
10mm German Landsknecht Arquebusiers (Handgunners) (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1765086496/10mm-german-landsknecht-arquebusiers-handgunners)
I don't have the know-how to put together a suitably inspiring "pump you up" type of video. Instead, please refer to this gem from my childhood.

First backer! :)
-
Nearly two hours, 49% funded. :P
Edit: Got another backer while I typed this. 57%...
-
Way more now :P Almost a 100% !
Looking forward to these ^_^
-
Ya, I went into a meeting and came back to 95%. I need to run to the post office, maybe it'll be funded by the time I get back?
-
And funded. Quickest 10mm Landsknechte Kickstarter ever. :P

Bloody hell that was fast!
Mind you you set the goal lower as you'd already paid for the sculpts.
If this one got much higher would you put it towards Halberdiers / Crossbowmen? =-P
-
If it got to the point where the sculpting, casting and moulding for another unit were covered than ya, I'd add the stretch goal. If not, there's always next time. I'm fine doing another one of these this year if I can recoup my expenditures before then. No need to wait until 2016.
-
I'm in now.
Handily over the target already.
-
I'm in for 4 units.
My confidence is waning though - too few updates since the kickstarter went live. :P
-
So I guess now wouldn't be a good time to tell you that I'm not planning on doing any Aztecs this time around?
-
Over $1000! Looking very healthy. =)

That is cool, I also remember it from my childhood, did you consider 10mm feline warriors in a Sword Sorcery and Low-tech setting sculpted by Bob 8) (that would be soo cool but probably not enough interest out there ;D)
Any way congratulations for making possible the dogs of war/ landskenette rank!!
-
I was the fourth baker , would really appreciate same style expanding units as well . Crossbow / infantry .
Maybe in time characters as well . Who knows .

Well and truly funded!!
-
A quick update because stormwind asked.
23 pledges have shipped. I have 9 more to go, but I'm waiting on things beyond my control for those.
I've got our local Epic tourney this weekend, so next week I hope to have the Arquebusiers up on the website for a general release.
-
Got mine. thanks.
-
Just checked the tracking, and mine have arrived in the UK! So hopefully mine will be with me fairly soon :D :D
-
Figures arrived this morning - and the look very good, great detail and crisp casting.
Its great to have the figures delivered international 1 month after the close of the KS. Some companies struggle to do this with their standard stock - let alone with a brand new product, great work Dave.
-
Just got home , surprise package . Figures I'd ordered had arrived . Lovely detail .
Many thanks for quick turn round . Looking forward to next kick starter .
-
Glad you guys like them. Looking at the tracking #s most people should have them this week.
-
All the pledges have shipped out, so the 10mm Landsknecht Arquebusiers (Handgunners) (http://warmonger-miniatures.com/store/10mm-landsknechte/arquebusiers-handgunners.html) are now up for sale on the Warmonger Miniatures website.

-
Also, fun fact: the Zweihander Kickstarter was funded on this day one year ago!
-
Brilliant, I'll link it on my local gamers forum.
-
So Dave, blindingly obvious question, when's the next one due? ;D ;)
-
I've already broken even on the Arquebusiers. I'll likely do the Crossbowmen before the end of the year. We'll see how sales go throughout the summer.
-
Woho :D
-
Count me in . Yay .
-
You can result the arquebus guys to have crossbows to save sculpting cost can't you?
-
Not sure if the greens made it. Either way I'll likely get them sculpted in more crossbowy poses.
-
Good news then !!!!. :) ;) ::)
-
If you make crossbowmen from landsknechte I'm starting an empire army and ordering 4 och each of your units (at least) immediately :)
-
Has anyone painted these guys up yet?
Or is Dave ahead of all of us on the speed of producing new units, compared with our painting speed?
I've got a couple more units of Zweihanders on the go, but haven't got round to the Arquebusiers yet.
-
I was hoping to paint up one of each unit this year for the store. I haven't gotten to them yet though. Too much Epic and Wrath of Kings stuff this year.
-
I sprayed a fair few handgunners last week, so they are big step closer to being painted. But the crossbow men have arrived with me already. So you are officially quicker at producing figures, than I am at painting them!
-
The 10mm Landsknecht Armbrustschützen (Crossbowmen) (http://warmonger-miniatures.com/store/10mm-landsknechte/armbrustschutzen-crossbowmen.html) are now up on Warmonger Miniatures (http://warmonger-miniatures.com/) website!

Well you're still painting them quicker than me. I still haven't gotten units done for the store pictures.
