Vox Populi Redux!

Welcome Citizen! Here at Wargames Atlantic we believe in the power of democracy!

From our earliest beginnings, we have polled wargamers to find out what we should make for you. The Famous Friday Poll on Facebook has questions for you every week. And a number of our sets have become a reality through various polling and contests including, but not limited to: Aztecs, Conquistadors, Grognard Cavalry, Skeleton Cavalry, WW1 Russians, Conquistador Cavalry, Renaissance Heavy Cavalry, Afghan Cavalry, and the BEF. 

We launched our Vox Populi program in January of 2023, revised it later that year, and have been seeing how things go ever since. The idea was a multi-step process of voting through immediately redeemable gift voucher purchases, then having the top set in the voting go to a second round of pre-production orders, and once the $6000 target was hit we'd make it. Pre-production backers got a nice discount and a chance to have something they really wanted made in hard plastic. 

We fear it was too complicated and in today's world of constant attention-demanding "stuff" you had to be too into it to understand how it all worked. So today we're re-launching the Vox Populi idea in a new, simpler format: 

First, we wanted to make sure that we recognized what had come in V1 of the program. In looking at the most recent voting, we realized the Top 4 had 60% of the total votes for the 12 in the list. 

So we've taken those top 4 and moved them directly into production to join the Dark Ages Army Builder and the Warring States sets that are already in process! 

Now, going forward we've dramatically simplified the process. It's one vote for all the sets that are on the list and we'll just take the leaders and move them to production as we go. As sets come off the list we'll add new ones on based on your #voxatlantic hashtag suggestions and additional polling. 

No multi-step process, just pure vote totals. All these sets will be made eventually, but this will ensure that the ones you REALLY want get made first. 

We've also added a section at the bottom of the new Vox Populi page that shows the current status of the sets that have moved to production. You'll be able to follow along as they flow through the various steps to become hard plastic. 

Thanks for all who have participated so far and we welcome everyone to get their votes in! Also visit the forums to discuss the various sets and add your ideas and wishes to the list. 

Thanks again and Happy Wargaming! Vote here!
