Articles disappearing?


  • Has anyone else noticed that all the articles posted since the September 4th article called "Renaissance Cavalry - Choices!" have vanished?

    I was trying to see if there was an article about the Peasants kit and noticed they were all gone.



  • Yep unfortunately Shopify doesn't have a backup on blog posts so those are syonara. Andy's just implemented an overall backup system so shouldn't happen again. 


  • Well that answers that. Do we know if anyone Archive.orged the blog posts?


  • Bits of them are out there. Too much of a pain in the ass to recreate them.


  • @Hudson Adams Well dang.


  • This is the prefect opprotunity to make a whole new post about the dark age army builder to help get it closer to that funding goal though 😁


  • @Big Boi The AB is just another Dark Age Warrior set with a ton of heads left over, would rather hear more about the Warring States Chinese sets, get the feeling more people with real investment were backing for that.


  • @Brian Van De Walker ha we'll see. I'm sure the Dark Age set will sell 2x at least what Warring States does. 


  • @Hudson Adams I know we don't have the back end numbers and we don't know what's going on in marketing and all that, but it's been on preorder for a bit and it's still sitting at <30% on the funding goal, and that has me worried. I just hope it comes soon I have a great few projects planned for the 3 boxes I ordered


  • @Hudson Adams In its current planned state😆, I bet a nickle it will not sell as well as a Warring States baggage train set let alone 2x what you guys actually have planned for WSC considering the dark age army builder is not even at 30% funded after weeks of being up as of this post.  It was pretty clearly backed by folks with mixed "pie in the sky" preconceptions of something you had very little shown off of and what your selling it as now is not a particularly innovative idea (where are all the people who plopped down vox money for it).

    Meanwhile the Warring States Chinese set you had on the Vox was already at the  sprue layout  render stage so everyone who backed it knows what to expect more or less from that set and it’s for something that isn't competing against an already spoiled with choices market (all the other plastic manufacturers agree with you to the point of no plans on doing any of Ancient China even though its been asked for in plastic for decades now). I get the feeling if you put up WSC sets for pre-order right now you would get well over the cost of mold creation for the infantry you preveiwed at least before the DAAB gets funded and they will all likely out sell it in the long run because "terracotta army" exists as a fantasy army proxy option and its easy to paint.😉
