Bringing the 1981 classic two-player wargame Cry Havoc back to your tables.
Hello Knights and Sergeants,
We're rapidly approaching our deadline for manufacturing so will be locking Backerkit orders very soon. Please make sure you've filled out your survey if you haven't already.
All being well, we'll be able to hit our fulfilment target and get the game in your hands on time.
Best wishes,
Tom
Hello knights and serjeants!
Just a quick one today. It's full steam ahead with production here at Footsore, so we're starting the process of collecting all your shipping fees and addresses.
Over the next couple of days you'll be receiving a survey via your Kickstarter email. Please fill this out as soon as you can to avoid any delays getting your rewards.
You'll also be able to purchase additional copies of the core game and the map pack addon.
For our backers in the EU, we would encourage you to keep your order under £120 otherwise you may be liable for additional tax.
Hello knights and serjeants!
We've been absolutely blown away by the outpouring of support we've had for Cry Havoc. It's great to have an enthusiastic and supportive community behind us as we start this journey together.
Gary is extremely excited about the future of the game and has already started work on more illustrations.
We're working hard in the background to hit our estimated delivery date of June 2026. This means that we'll be sending out surveys via our Backerkit pledge manager towards the beginning of next week.
Please keep an eye on the inbox for your Kickstarter email address to ensure you don't miss these emails.
Using the pledge manager, you'll be able to pay for shipping, purchase additional copies of the core game and the map pack addon we announced towards the end of the campaign.
For our backers in the EU, we would encourage you to keep your order under £120 otherwise you may be liable for additional tax.
Hello knights and serjeants!
There are only a few days to go until the end of the campaign, our charge is rapidly closing on that wall of shields and we're about to crash through it in Knightly fashion with our banners billowing and trumpets bellowing!
We've got a great announcement to make as we enter the final stage of the campaign:
We've spoken to our printing partner and are excited to bring you a new add-on for the campaign. By adding £13 to your pledge, you'll secure an additional set of 4 maps (2 sheets, double-sided) that can already be found in the core game box.
This will allow you to fight truly epic battles and give you the freedom to design a whole swathe of new scenarios.
They will not be included in your game box (but they will fit inside once unwrapped).
For those of you who have asked, yes, we will also be adding the option to purchase an additional game as part of the pledge manager.
Thanks to your unbridled support for this first campaign, we're already starting to explore remastering other entries in the official Cry Havoc series (with the aim of running another campaign towards the end of this year). We're already talking to Gary and other creators about getting this off the ground, and we're sure you're as excited as we are about what's to come.
Hello knights and serjeants,
We'd love to share some of Gary Chalk's incredible art with you today. Cry Havoc uses variations in tokens to represent the changing state of a warrior's health over the course of a battle.
They start out hale and hearty, cantering around the battlefield dealing death at every turn. As a result of combat, they may be wounded or stunned. Death is the inevitable conclusion of suffering further injury while in these states.
As you can see below, Sir Richard has eight tokens in the game, each one representing the various states he can be found in during a game of Cry Havoc.
We've put together a selection of other characters from the game to showcase the brilliance of Gary's art.
We are still hard at work behind the scenes on the feasibility of a couple of stretch goals, that we may be able to announce later on this week.
One thing we are exploring is the ability to offer separate map packs as an addon, please use the poll below to let us know what you'd want this to look like.
