Not quite comparable, but another recent crowdfunding campaign I followed, Pantheon of Chaos, needed 2 hours to raise the initial 6000 Euros. I am quite confident that you will need more stretch goals ;)

350 euro to have the team painted by JBone, winner of NAF Championships Best Painted award seems like a steal. So tempted!

I'm a British Freebooter, will play for any team including Undead (I have my own Apothecary). Good rates.

Maybe it's worth putting the campaign link in the first post to make it a bit easier find?

Will the star player stretch goals be offered as individual pledges if unlocked? I have a Slann team I'm happy with already, but would like to go in for some stars.

Not just that, but this is a one time offer to buy the miniatures painted in the way the creator and great enabler saw them in his minds eye. I would say that seeing this vision realised and in full reality in full technicolor is worth an extra penny :)

With only one left, do not hesitate too long!

Within the last 15mins (I just posted the campaign to the BBTactics page, and there was 14euro to go to the 2nd SG).

Fair play, no wasn't me. I'm still in negotiations with the Mrs.

With this team being limited edition i'm tempted to buy more than one...

Maybe buy one for a future Foul Bowl team give away :D

I like the way this team can also run as a human team.

Big guy star doubles as Zug & Slibli.
Blitzer star doubles as Griff & Lottabottol.
“Stab” star doubles as Hemlock & Puggy maybe?

J-Bone said "could very well be limited" :)

Just to avoid any problems further down the road. 8)
(I've seen it happen in other campaigns when limited suddenly turns into unlimited)

I've never backed a crowd funded campaign so am a little cautious, this one looks good. Also not sure if it will be limited or not?

Hadn't realised it might be limited - that might mean the car has to wait! (It is summer after all, and I should really get the bike out!)

J_Bone - can you confirm either way?

Good morning everybody. Apologies for the radio silence. Yesterday was my brother's wedding so I wasn't checking messages as much as I normally would.

First of all, we have absolutely smashed €9000 now and are well on the way to the third stretch goal. I'm still amazed.

And secondly, I have stated that this team may be limited as I am not doing this as a main career. This is a little project that has absolutely exploded in popularity. While I do plan to sell the team after the campaign ends I do not think it will be available indefinitely.
