Reforging - New Patron Goals (and Vendor Tiers!)
🕑 Added 2020-07-30 16:00:05 +0000 UTCHello everyone! It's been a few months since Battle Yak Miniatures has launched, and the latest Battle Pack release for this August will be available early August 2nd! Take a look at this sneak peek for the upcoming release!
I've had a few free days this month to look over what Battle Yak Miniatures has to offer fans of tabletop gaming and 3D printing, and this reflection has led to this post where I plan to roll out some improvements.
Firstly, there are now Two New Battle Yak Miniatures Subscription Tiers available aimed at patrons who are looking to Print and Sell Battle Yak Miniatures figures. Since I don't presently have the facilities or resources to produce and distribute physical miniatures myself, I've decided to add these tiers to open up the possibility for patrons to do so.
Similar to the Warrior tiers, these new Vendor tiers offer standard and limited discount options for patrons. The Caravan Yak Vendor tier grants patrons permission to print and sell minis obtained through the Battle Yak Miniatures Patreon, while the more limited Golden Caravan Yak Vendor tier grants the same permission at a discount for early subscribers. So if you've been filled with a burning desire to print off a bunch of Battle Yak minis and sell them for sick bank, sign up with these tiers.
Secondly, I've reviewed my previous Patron Goals, and decided that some of them weren't as exciting as they ought to be, so I've made a number of revisions to them that I hope will make them more compelling to look forwards to unlocking.
50 Patrons (this one's gettin' close!)
-Patrons of Warrior-tier and above will be able to vote to determine the theme of Monthly Battle Packs! Patrons will vote to choose a new theme every month.

-A special Epic Paracausalist sculpt will be produced and made available during the month following it's completion!

-Monthly Battle Packs will now include a unique special Hero Character! This brings the total minimum number of characters sculpts to 7 every month!

These changes I hope will make unlocking goals more exciting and more achievable, granting more new figures and bonuses for patrons! That's all for now, keep an eye out for upcoming news from Battle Yak Miniatures!
Edit: A note about Pre-supported Miniatures!
I've had a few folks ask about pre-supported files, and this is something I want to provide for all Battle Yak releases regardless of patron goals. It'll just be a matter of working pre-supported files into my monthly workflow, which I'm in the process of doing! Pre-supported files will become the standard going forwards soon.

Challenge accepted. Once I have a working printer again I'll be doing my part. I was planning on putting a video up on the Sharkzerkers this weekend as well!
