DeepWars is moving along well and we are actually trying to ramp up production and shipping. Part of the reason for this is to start up on the 2nd Edition of ShadowSea, which will update the rules to include the new options in DeepWars and make the full land-sea battle system cohesive. The new starter set miniatures will be ones not made by Cavalcade, so there is no replacing of old models needed. There will be new stats though. Here are the first concepts for the Fortune Hunter starter set. As an aside, the general idea of the starter sets is to make a small warband that can attempt multiple gameplay styles. They always include a Scientist, and either some form of magic or a model that can defeat magic, such as the Templar Lightbringer. Then they have some ranged attack capability and, in some cases, a Leader or Commander.

Yea, I HOPE he means Second Edition SS - I've only just gotten into it!!!!

So, what I am getting is all the existing models will be still useable - and we will be getting new models as well - COOL!

Great Concepts!

Is there going to be another Kickstarter for this, or a regular release schedule?

This is for Kickstarter. That is the most effective way to launch such as a large number of forces. The first two will be Fortune Hunters and Dark Mariners, then stretch goals of Axibalan Empire, Darconid Legion, Sunless Kingdom and Order of Yosoth. The order of them may change, depending on what people want to see first.

whaaaaaat?! awesome. I'll make sure to get in on the KS this time. i really like the starter boxed sets for DeepWars - it'll be nice to see a similar campaign for shadowsea (with new models!). i imagine this will be slotted for spring/early summer of next year?
