Dream Pod 9 Power Through Stretch Goals For Heavy Gear Blitz!
November 6, 2014 by brennon
Dream Pod 9 have been powering through the various stretch goals on their campaign for Heavy Gear Blitz and it's Starter Set called War on Terra Nova. Coming at Stretch Goal 11 is the Caprice ACCO Mount you can see below...
Here's what they had to say on this neat little addition to the game that looks rather cool as a smaller piece of battlefield technology...
"While working on the new edition of the Heavy Gear Blitz rules, we realized that Caprice needed a small low cost trooper mount to counter opposing factions. So the Acco was designed around the idea of having a Mount about the same size as a Gear with light weapons. The cockpit area in the front of the mount is just a bit smaller than a Hunters, with hatch for the pilot enter at the top. Behind the pilot is the iconic dome covering, on all Caprice Mount engines, and there are hard points on each side to attach the weapons systems. The standard Acco has a medium machine gun in the front, light rocket pack on the left, and light autocannon on the right. It will also have two variants; one with a light frag cannon and the other with a light flamer."
If you wanted to take a closer look at the Stretch Goal plan for War For Terra Nova then have a gander at the graphic below that shows off what you could be looking forward too.
You may have to open this in another tab to have a closer look at it but it's well worth looking over if you're wondering about what level to pledge at to get things like Add-Ons. As well as that some more information for backers looking to work out their Shipping Costs appeared...
...the campaign seems to be being run very well by the team and they're certainly listening to the feedback they get from the community. Have you begun to delve deeper into the world of Heavy Gear Blitz?
