The miniature game will release in 2026 and the boardgames in 2027.

This is interesting and if done well could be really something.

They have scheduled a live video for April 3rd, I’ll try to give it a watch as I am fairly interested in this.

The minis do look promising, from both a painting perspective and just as gaming pieces.

I can never get over the fact that Archon is Prodos and Prodos stiffed us all on the Aliens Vs Predator Kickstarter, then renamed themselves to get away with it.

Prodos were themselves stiffed by 20th century fox.  They renamed themselves to distance themselves from the Prodos brand rather than “get away with it” a very sensible decision.  While people don’t like hearing this, there’s not really anything to “get away with” – you are guaranteed literally nothing when you back a kickstarter.   Promised, sure. Guaranteed, no.

Prodos ran a kickstarter that went massively wrong, mostly due to lack of experience dealing with a studio and license conditions.  Every kickstarter Archon have run to date seems to have performed reasonably well and their plastic casting arm is also doing well.  I would assess them as a medium low risk when backing.  And I like to consider myself a fairly good judge of these things, having backed almost 100 kickstarters and had only three fail to deliver.  In fact, Archon actually rescued one of the three that failed seeing as the bailed out the Ninja Division Star Finder miniatures kickstarter AND honoured pledges for the kickstarter despite not actually receiving the funds raised by the kickstarter
