Ghosts of Hefei Kickstarter: 15mm Yakuza Fabricant Previewed

By Harold

Hi Everyone,  over at the Ghosts of Hefei Kickstarter they previewed the newest miniature, the Yakuza Fabricant:



Great looking miniature and I think this will find use in all types of armies and has a lot of potential.  What do you guys think?

The Kickstarter still has 21 days to go and is already at $4,408 out of a $10k goal.  They've added some cool reward levels that include 15mm miniatures and rulebooks at pretty reasonable pledge levels.


Anyone else as excited about this game as I am?  I really enjoyed playing The Department and I'm always for gang skirmish games!

Ghosts of Hefei Kickstarter Updated - New Greens and already over 1/3rd the way there!

By Harold

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to give a quick update for the Ghosts of Hefei kickstarter (I did an interview with one of the designers here).  They have already passed the 1/3rd mark and have posted up some new 15mm and 28mm greens:



They've also added a "modified" $100 15mm pledge:

From our comment section:
If you just want the 15mm figures, you can swap out the 28mm figures for four additional 15mm sets and two more copies of the book. So for your $100 pledge, you can get six 15mm sets, three copies of the book,a t-shirt, the pdfs and one of every stretch goal. Its enough for your whole gaming group to get into it, if you're a 15mm fan.

You can indicate your figure preferences in the backer survey at the end of the drive.

That's quite a good deal, and one that i'm going for myself.  It's a great way to get a group involved and, if everyone chips in, it's minimal cost for a bunch of stuff!

They've also added a bunch of pledge levels that get you copies of their last game, The Department, as well.

Head over to their kickstater page today and check it out:

Ghosts of Hefei Kickstarter: Interview with Joe Dragovich


By Harold

Hi everyone, today we have an interview with Joe Dragovich regarding the "Ghosts of Hefei" kickstarter that went live today (Link: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1931671462/ghosts-of-hefei-tabletop-near-future-gang-warfare).  I'm a big fan of "The Department" and "Blasters and Bulkheads" so i've been looking forward to seeing their take on futuristic skirmish gang warfare!

Without further stalling on my part, on to the interview!

Who is the Ghosts of Hefei team?

We’re a small team. I’m leading the project and so wear a few hats in the process. Scott Pyle, father of Goalsystem, is joining us to help hone the rules. Kieran Mathers is returning to provide some awesome fiction for the book. And Dave Powell is going to be our primary illustrator.

Where are you guys located?

We’re a very international bunch. Dave and I live in South Wales, Scott is in Pittsburgh, PA and Kierann is in Geneva, Switzerland.
