The Epic Odyssey Continues Into April (Patreon)
Content
Hello dear Patron!
First off let me just say thank you for your excitement and enthusiasm for this month’s theme!
I have really been floored with just how incredibly popular this collection has been: The numbers don’t lie, it has been the most popular release we have ever had!!
That excitement carried over into the launch of the Overlord Tier, with 1 in every 3 of you now subscribing at that level. Although it was a big surprise that so many of you levelled up to that tier, it makes total sense: for just a $6 add-on it is such a ridiculously low price for a crazy amount of miniatures.
Paul Goodwin summed it up in his comment:
“I must say the value-packed in here for me, personally, is incredible. I will be able to print and produce an entire Kings of war army from one single Patreon month. It almost seems like we are taking advantage! I have been printing entire armies for a while now, and a lot of the “luster” of different factions is fading, but each and every month I am excited
By the uniqueness and character you bring forward. Bravo, and THANK YOU for the terrain! Such a massive part of completing the look!”
Greek Gods and Heroes Part II
As always I’ve read all your comments for ideas on next month’s release and by a wide margin, the overwhelming request was for Greek Gods and Heroes part II.
As always, I try to design the characters so that even if you don’t play a Greek-themed game, you’ll find many things in the release that you’ll be able to use and this month is no exception.
Our team is now close to finishing April’s collection. Stay tuned for the reveal trailer towards this coming week when we will show off new gods, new monsters, new heroes and or course new troops! There is some seriously cool stuff!!!
I have also tried to explore a few less known characters for that release. Of course, there will be some big star names, but also a few less known characters. We have an awesome casting for this new episode ;)
Future themes?
Many of the other themes you suggested in the comments mostly revolved around other mythologies; Vikings, Native Americans, Aztecs and Mayans. Is it something you want us to explore now or do you have something else in mind for the next release? Please continue to share your ideas, we are listening!
Also as promised we are about to send you a big poll about Heroes Infinite to get a more precise feel of what you are looking for.
Judging by the success of the new Overlord Tier (if you want to upgrade to Overlord, here is how), which was built on some of your requests, there are probably a few tweaks we can make to this Patreon to make you even happier.
File Storage
We know that many of you really don't like the Sync file-sharing system and some of you had real problems with it. Just so you know, we are just as frustrated with the system. We are currently investigating several options that can provide you with online storage, a personalised membership area, and a very easy way to download your files.
MyMiniFactory is of course one of the options, but there are a lot of changes and evolutions in the industry at the moment and we don't want to make you move to a new system just to change everything again, make you migrate to another platform and make you run after your files in two or three months.
Yes, I know, sometimes downloading the files can be a pain, but please bear with us just a little bit more, you’ll soon have a very cool and effective system.
A Really Cool Diorama
Have you had a chance to print or paint some of your Greeks minis already?
Mikey from Hellstorm Wargaming showed off this month’s collection in his last weekend’s Coffee Time episode on YouTube. It is a really entertaining build, and it’s great to see another hobbyist get just as over-excited and just as carried away with a project as I do.
We had been talking to Mikey about just printing a couple of miniatures and talking about what he thought of them.
Well… this escalated very quickly after he got the files... particularly when he got his hands on the new troop units.
You should go check out his super cool diorama and if you like it, give him a shout out. Mikey is a great guy, really entertaining and knowledgeable about the hobby, and he will be appearing on our website later this month with the first-ever in a series of guest blogs!
And don’t forget, if you haven’t joined the new Overlord Tier already and you would like to, then check out this link to learn how to upgrade your membership with ease.
It’s crazy that you can more than double the number of miniatures each month for a $6 add-on. Supporting Heroes Infinite through this new tier will help us to expand, bring on more sculptors, and ultimately create even more amazing miniatures for you.
If you have any questions about joining the Overlord Tier then check out our post from the beginning of the month, or feel free to reach out and contact us.
SO WHAT SHOULD WE DO IN MAY?
Now time for you to answer the month's most important question! ;)
As always let us know what you want us to look for in May's theme. Do you want us to cover another culture's mythology, or something completely different?
Either way, please make sure to make your voice heard! Make sure you pop your ideas and comments down below so we know what you are thinking.
See you soon,
Benoit
