Crate Scott! The ammo crate is unlocked! What's next?

All aboard TerrainSpotters,

Awesome news! We've just unlocked yet another stretch goal (that's four in around 24 hours). It's amazing to see more goals being knocked down as we approach the end of the campaign and we've still got a few more up our sleeve.

The ammo crates have now been added to the Papers Please set in the Morneville Ruins crate. Remember, if you're just opting for the sets, any stretch goals are being added to those too. Hooray!

We're already closing in on the next stretch goal too: additional hospital equipment. We reckon that will be unlocked in no time.

Then it's just a small leap to our next goal. We realised we've currently got a kitchen but nothing to eat! So here's a big ham and some knives to carefully chop it up. However, perhaps not everything is as it seems with the ham. Could it be poisoned? Maybe it's the source of the zombie infection after being left in the sun too long? Perhaps you can just use the knives as a weapon when things get desperate.

Until next time TerrainSpotters!

We're quacking up! New stretch goal unveiled!

All aboard TerrainSpotters!

This is it, the final push. At 8pm (GMT) today, we hit the 48 hour mark and then the countdown to the end of the campaign can officially begin. If the past 24 hours are anything to go by (smashing through three stretch goals) then we are in for a wild ride as the end approaches. Anyway, enough looking forward, let's look back at the latest goal to be unlocked...

We're going to ruffle some feathers with this latest addition! The Angry Duck has been added to the Pleasant Park and Crystal Peaks Campsite sets in the Bellevue Square and Campbell Heights crates, respectively.

After that we've got a very useful piece of terrain: a pile of ammo crates. Perfect to use as cover or the main objective in a scenario, the ammo crates are an essential addition to any tabletop.

Following that, we've seen some comments from wannabe doctors that the hospital needs a few more pieces to ensure the nurses can cope with the expected victims. So, we're managing to just about squeeze in a few extra items of equipment: a drip, surgical instruments and an extra body bag (if things don't go well). 

If we carry on at the same progress as yesterday, these will be unlocked in no time at all.

Take a load off! Time to bite the bullet.

All aboard TerrainSpotters,

Yes! What a fantastic milestone - we've just passed £200,000. Thanks to everyone that's backed the campaign so far. We're expecting the total to keep climbing over the next few days, as we approach the final 48 hours.

First up we're delighted to announce the Loading Bay has been unlocked for the Survivor's Stronghold set in the Campbell Heights crate. Slight correction from the other day, it's 2-inches square, not 4-inches. It was late and we were confused by simple measurements when we wrote that :p

Still, this a cool centrepiece for your gaming tables and we can certainly see it being used in a variety of scenarios - or as a big addition to a diorama/display board. With the loading bay and furnace now unlocked, let's take a look at them in 'action' alongside some other pieces from Survivor's Stronghold.

With the loading bay unloaded, it's time to see what's coming up! Something that we saw requested numerous times in the comments was a photocopier for the Abandoned Office. Perhaps the outbreak survivors just managed to photocopy the cure to the infection... or took pictures of their backside at the Christmas party.

Next up is a fun little goal: angry duck! Perhaps the duck is another victim of the outbreak? If so, we suspect fowl play - yeah, we went there.

You can see the duck facing off against a vampire in this bizarre photograph above. Actually, this also shows how the Gothic Manor set fits in really nicely alongside our existing TerrainCrate fantasy range. Particularly if you want to create a vampire's boudoir or a king's plush chambers.

Once the duck has flown the nest, it's time to show the Morneville Ruins a bit more love. This means we've got a pile of ammo crates lined up. These are absolutely perfect to use as cover or as an objective for a scenario. They'll be particularly useful for post-apocalyptic scavenging scenarios where you have to collect as much ammo as possible!

Phew! Quite a lot to be getting on with as we approach the 48 hour mark.

Copy that, good buddy!

All aboard TerrainSpotters,

We're really motoring along today. After unlocking the loading bay earlier, we've just unlocked our second stretch goal of the day.

That means two photocopiers have been added to the Abandoned Office set in the Campbell Heights crate. Remember photocopier fans, if you're only grabbing the Abandoned Office set, the photocopiers will be added to the set, as well as the Campbell Heights crate. Copy that!

We're sure it won't be long until the Angry Duck is unlocked. Not to be confused with an Angry Bird, so please don't try launching it from a catapult. That will only make it more furious. Hopefully it won't be too long until we can... release the quackin'.

And we've already got the ammo crates in our sights. How many stretch goals will be toppled today Terrainspotters?
