Ultracombat 28mm Modern Miniatures and Skirmish Rules

Update
over 3 years ago – Mon, Nov 23, 2020 at 01:43:21 AM

Below you can see some of the printed masters that are being turned into master moulds.

We have decided to send out the books and cards prior to the miniatures so you guys actually get something before the end of the year. This is not a small decision, it's going to cost us a lot of money in postage, we have used the funds we generated from the selling the PDF's to do this and it's going to be drip-fed over the next month. We have books and cards now in the UK, USA and Australia ready to go. They will start going out next weekend.

I won't bore you with the problems we have been facing trying to resolve this KS but at least this way you can see we are still working hard to deliver everything you ordered. All books will go out registered post so they can be tracked. Covid is making post difficult so although things are going into the post please be patient if your books and cards don't arrive immediately we are working through this as quickly as we can.

As always we appreciate your patience in this matter but we are determined to deliver.

cheers

Hi all, there is really not much to report, hence the silence, but we are working through the production issues and moving towards delivery even if at times it seems incredibly slow. 

We are looking at ways to drip feed delivery. As some of you only wanted the initial miniatures and the heavy weapons teams. If we get the heavy weapons moulds made early we can start to deliver those why we wait in the rest of the moulds being delivered. I wish I had more news but the mould makers are in the US and I am sure you are all aware of the issues the US and for that matter the world is having re: Covid. So as before we don't promise a date we just promise to deliver.

cheers

We are in production

The STL files ( the 3d Sculpts) have now gone to be printed out as an extremely high level. These are being done in their fireteams.

From here we make the master moulds and from there we make the production moulds. Then we cast the miniatures. Obviously this all takes time but we are at least in production. As many of you have given us advice over we are making the tokens out of MDF now. With the exception of the grenade template. 

Sorry, no images but at least you can see we are inching closer.

cheers

A quick update

Hi everybody, below are some of the last Russians, they are still work in progress, but I wanted to show you were are still working hard to complete this project. 

Unfortunately, Covid 19 is still interfering with delivery. We can't get the plastic for the counters and all the printers are working slower as they have less staff. All of this adds to delays so I mentioned last time we no longer are even attempting to give a delivery date but will say rest assured we are working as hard as we can and we will deliver as soon as we are able. 

Now a note of our Officer squad leader figures. A few people have asked why we have so many figures which are pointing in some way. This is because Officers and Squad Leaders are extremely important in the age and they need to be clearly identified. Also, remember all of our poses are based on real photographs wherever possible. There is an adage that if an Officer is using his gun, he is being ineffective, he should be directing the fire of fireteam, squad or platoon.

I wish I had more definite news for you all. I have been waiting, hoping for better news but in the end, I felt you deserved at least some communication so you see that we are still actively working to complete this KS.

Hi all,

I won't have time this week to post an update on Wednesday so decided to do this now and show the updated 240 Bravo and the Platoon Officer. Just so you realise we are not slacking off. :-) 

I would also like to thank all those people who took the time to comment about Dishdash Games selling the PDF's and to thank you all for the overwhelming support. It is really appreciated. Until later pop-pickers ;-)
