Hallo,
Gerade gelesen das der KS nr. 3 am 14.juli startet. Wer genauere Infos will kann sich den field of fire podcadt nr 37 anhören oder diese notes hier lesen:
Field of Fire episode 37 has a lot of details on the KS3 for Warcaster. I've asked CharlesComm on Discord if I can post his notes, they said yes, so here you are. All words are theirs, I'm just posting them.
"Ks launches july 13! - "Warcaster: thousand worlds"
In addition the the cadres the main component in this ks is the ‘source book’
Has a timeline of the setting from human arrival. Schematics for a battle carrier will be in
the book
It will also include the full rules with slight ‘updates’. Compiles ks1 and ks2 with clean-ups.
Has a glossary.
Pledges: book, book+cadre, everything
Lots of stretch goals. More fiction, lore, patches.
We've established the foundation of factions and rounded them out a bit. Now your getting
glimpses of weird stuff and wider setting.
Cadres will be sold as sets
Cadre units can be taken individually without full set in list if you want.
Centerpiece models are ‘free’ but require the rest of the cadre to be in your list
Storm vulture is a piloted mech vehicle, and the name of the mw air cadre centerpiece.
Has a slam manuver to drop from sky and stomp on people.
Dragoon air-cavelry.
Isa cadre is 'regulators', rapid anti-arcane strike force
The isa centerpiece is a warjack called the headsman.
Terminus cabal is the name of the ac cadre, full of weirdness
The ac centerpiece is an oracular witch of annihilation that can see possible futures and
comes out of the temple to act on those visions
The nekosphynx is cyber tiger of some kind and can phase through things
Empyrean aeon cadre is called harbingers of cyriss
The aeon centerpiece is the eternal meditator, it collects the souls of fallen aeons
Each faction is getting a new hero solo and regular solo, seperate from cadres
Isa get repair solo
The isa commander can ‘promote’ a squad member into a reserve solo, has a neural
command web that allows her to compel isa units to do things like move out of activation
The ac has a vassal boss, described as a gang leader/union boss. Commander piece.
Phaetheon, the whisper of death - hero solo has 2 forms. Living, dies and turns into
dangerous wraith form. Wraith has scything run on 8" move. Has corrosion.
Emp get heavy saber on 50mm, basically a light warjack wit 2x protean forges and meteor
cannon
Hero aeon weaver with armour piercing
Mw solo is alien dinosaur rider - ranger outrider
The marcher hero solo is a ‘war chief’ basically a field general, has an armor piercing firearm
and a light flame thrower. Up close fighter.
All the new wildcard characters work for all factions:
These are attached to each pledge level. Eg: book + cadre pledge level gives tulken, leech,
and axel.
Quartermaster as earlybird (pledge in first 48hr).
Quartermaster is a hero squad attachment with a ‘gym bag full of guns’, one ability gives
hollowphage rounds to the squad.
Ferik leech - shady weaver.
Axel for hire - schizophrenic robot sniper. Easter egg in rules pointing to warcaster future.
Master tulken - keeper"
