With all the various model sizes, will the game have appropriate bases for our smaller or larger models?

Octagonal bases are required in tournaments. Size is 16cm diameter like Action base 01 from Bandai. We’ll be able to provide our bases only after some stretch goals

If I use a SD Gundam - which is scales smaller than most other models - what size base would I use for games?

For SD models you can use the square base contained in Bandai Action base 01 or any other base that fit your models.

Do/will the rules support job mechanism units like infantry units and vehicles? I have a sizable one-year war army for each side

We have these rules, maybe we’ll realise a special free pdf for them because the choice always go to mecha or vehicle units

Have ocean, mountain, or arctic maps been considered?

These maps you mentioned have been considered and we’ll release after certain stretch goals or in the future

In campaign mode have any currency based maintenance been implemented? Mechs like Trider G7 and Sasuraiger are noted for being very costly in-universe

We have two different kind of campaign mode: evolutive and surviving. Money are � points and yes you can spend them to repair or build new mecha

I have plenty 3cm tall SD Gundam and 7cm tall Super Robots. Is the mechatop system compatible with smaller bases? Assuming Bandai action bases are almost 16mm, a 50% and 25% reduction on ranges and distances would be a possible solution?

Yes, sure! But please take a look also at our scale conversion table! It’s in our rulebook draft, in download area of our website www.mechatop.com/download

As a possible expansion/spin-off product in the future, what are the chances of the ruleset being adapted to cover Kaiju? Is there any possibility that Godzilla, Kong, Ultraman and the like would someday join the tabletop chaos?

We’re already working on Kaiju, so 100% YES! ;-)

Buongiorno, volevo sapere come fare per ordinare e acquistare una copia in italiano del gioco.

Scegli una qualunque ricompensa poi a fine campagna riceverai una mail dove dovrai specificare il tuo acquisto: in quel momento potrai scegliere l’edizione in italiano. Per vedere le varie offerte sfoglia la pagina Kickstarter: ci sono diverse opzioni di acquisto (pledge tiers) e vari add ons che puoi aggiungere alla tua puntata principale. Ti basterà aggiungere l’importo degli add-ons all’importo principale.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
