We did it, we're over our stretch goal of €100k! 🤯 GROUND OF ACES will have the Luftwaffe as the 2nd playable faction and an additional theatre campaign in the base game! Thank you so much to all our backers! We are so happy we have reached this significant milestone! 🧡🧡🧡
And we still have 18 hours to go!
We're not finished yet! As you can see, we have updated our graphic about the stretch goals and added new ones. The €125k stretch goal for the Attack Scouting Towers is up next.
And then a few steps later, there would be the major stretch goal at €200k for the Guadalcanal DLC that lets you play as the USA faction.* Yes, obviously that would a HUGE jump in the last 18 hours, but we just want to show you that we thought about what could come next after reaching €100k. And you never know what could happen in the last hours…
What do you think about the Guadalcanal campaign? And at which number will we end up tomorrow?
*The plan here would be that you get the Guadalcanal DLC for free as a backer after the main game is released. We would develop this DLC after having finished the main game first.

24 hours left! And we are making great progress getting to the €100k stretch goal. Just €3500 more is needed to unlock the Luftwaffe theatre campaign for the base game. We're almost there, guys!
Want to know what an attack on a Luftwaffe airbase could like in our game? We prepared special test footage for that:
You want to add a reward that isn't part yet of your pledge? Now you can update your pledge with ADD-ONS. Get rewards like the ACCESS to the ALPHA VERSION, the campaign exclusive T-shirt, cap or signed poster. (Note that you can only add physical rewards to pledge tiers that already include physical rewards. This is a rule set by Kickstarter.)
New slots with "Get your own NPC" reward available
And we restocked the previously sold out "General - Legend" tier! Take this tier and we will help you to create an NPC of yourself (or a relative) with your choice of strengths and weaknesses, that could potentially live on the airbase of any player.

They started their campaign yesterday and it's already a big success. 🥳 Definitely worth a look, so check it out!

46 hours are left, and we are now over €91'000! Thank you to all our new backers!
Reaching the stretch goal of €100k would unlock the Luftwaffe as the 2nd playable faction for the base game. Do you think we can reach that goal? And what kind of stretch goals could potentially follow if we go over €100k?

If we reach €100k, we can make a second theater campaign that tells the story of getting ready for the Blitz from the perspective of a Luftwaffe air base. Comes with the German planes for the free build mode and a new way to interact with the nearby village.
