Good one,
I aim for about 80million on 3 ball but my GC is 156Million.
It will take a few games to get " the feel " for this addictive little game and appreciate the build quality.
Goodo, just didn't know is all. I'm pretty excited to get what i consider to be the very best value in pinball today.
The quality is immediately obvious when you address the machine. i didn't expect to like it and thought 'oh well, it's not toooo bad' first couple of games.
4 or 5 games in and i knew i wanted one. The only machine i have that compares in quality is my Houdini.
Just received an email from Damian, my Celts will be ready to ship in 3-weeks. Hopefully it will arrive before the Holidays via FEDEX Air, he also mentioned he is working on the Fathom list !! Super excited to own something other than a Stern.

Awesome. Mine is supposed to arrive tomorrow.
Update, just set mine at 5 degrees and I may just have found my sweet spot .
love to know what others have set the inclination too?
6 or higher was waaaaay too much and played ordinary.

What is the official recommendation from Haggis on slope?
Quoted from Crile1:What is the official recommendation from Haggis on slope?
Damian suggest 5.5 but I am amazed how it changes so much with little variation.
I am hoping the manual will be ready soon and see what that says.
On this pitch it is fast/ slow! if that makes sense
GRAB YOUR SPORRANS
Well FEDEX has given me my third delay. So no Celts today. There really is not much express in Federal Express.

Interesting, is it a local delay ? Ive had several games arrive by Fedex and usually pretty quick..
Celts will be the next, possibly shipping this week even..

China, Alaska, and now Indiana. Those damn Hoosiers are probably unboxing it and playing my game. Those bastards.
Is that the black onyx colour? It's what i chose but couldn't find a sample of the colour and Damian didn't have one.
If so could you take a couple pics of the rail or lockdown bar for me please?

No it is grurple. So much brighter and better than any picture. It is crazy how it is bright green from one angle and deep purple from another.

Amazing! This game got us all when I bumped the flipper and it shouted our family name to hurry up and play. Music is fantastic. So far I am getting used to the shots, but this thing flows. Plays like a classic late 70’s/ early 80’s game with modern flair and code. Exactly what I wanted. And it is beautiful. So many little surprises.
As far as slope, with legs all the way down it is 6.7 between the slings and that is perfect for me. At 5.5 ( had to raise the legs) plunge wasn’t working well and was a bit too slow. Addictive game. I really can’t tell a difference with the acrylic play field layer. Plays smooth and no dimples!
My only disappointment so far, (still waiting for my game) is the fact that Celts play-field glass is an odd size, that being said nobody makes Invisi Glass to fit. I’am hoping maybe all Cets Owners that want Invisiglass could place a special order maybe??? I absolutely love Invisible Glass!!!! I believe Fathom will be a standard size hopefully.
This game has a lot more depth than I initially realized. It has 4 clan battles. Beat them all and have all clan battle multiball that feels like Jericho from Iron Man. 7 Highland games , one that is a 2 ball multiball. Win all games and you go up a level (club, state, world). 3 other multiballs all with separate rules. If you bought name in the game there is a bonus mode available. Finally there is Lady of the Lake wizard mode… no idea what that is. Has lots of multipliers as well. Plus callouts are fantastic and hilarious. Although I will need subtitles to understand them all. Really a unique and deep game. Shows that you can do a lot with a “simple” layout. Still learning all the rules and figuring out stuff.

Post pics?
Quoted from Crile1:What do your want to see?
Everything and anything you want to post. Would love to see some game play video. The game looks great.
Received an email today saying my Celts is going into production next week, will take 3-weeks to hand build, then the shipping nightmare will begin, nervous about shipping in December, i assume FedEx would be the best option?

I did FEDEX express(air) because was only option at the time(DHL had just bailed on them). It took 12 days even though had 5 day guarantee. Had three delays along the way. I think that is just the state of things now. By boat will take longer. I felt it cost a bit too much to ship by air, but felt it was the safest choice at the time. With Fathom will be cheaper because I think it is built into the price and will be bulk units by boat. Folks will then pay domestic shipping from US distributor.

I got an email last week that they worked out DHL option and could now do to residence delivery. One thing that I needed to do was make sure I was listed with customs with a valid importer form 5106. Found a way to set this up for free using https://www.eezyimport.com/ (there are several other online brokers that can do this for you too, as opposed to filing a paper form) ..
If the last ETA is still on target, I should be getting a delivery notice very soon, was estimated it would ship this week even.
Quoted from Rjbdmdmd:what's the recommendation on playfield care on the hybrid playfield?
Would guess the same as most but I would avoid anything with abrasives like Novus 2-3.
Quoted from Rjbdmdmd:what's the recommendation on playfield care on the hybrid playfield?
Haggis suggests just rubbing alcohol.
Just saw a post by Damian that Haggis Celts won Best Modern' at Pincinatti Show on FB but it looks like it's been deleted?
Anyone else see it?
Quoted from oldskool1969:Just need a code update with an adult only " angry Scot code"
Now that would be great!

Look what i got coming Andy, nother aussie icon...
Quoted from punkin:I'm absolutely not surprised.
Couple games on one was all i needed to order.
Well deserved.
Yes they have done well. Even more so when you consider what they have had to contend with with Covid lockdowns & parts shortages etc. Owning Celts I know I am absolutely going to love Fathom.

So you bought that Garry? I seen that advertised. It looked cool!
Yes mate, hoping to get it before xmas if Bill manages. Really excited. I was looking last night and it looks to me that i'll have three very similar layout machines that i truley love the layout of.
The sunset riders (which is Bally Eight Ball)
My Hankin Orbit 1
And to a lesser extent my sorcerer
Just love the simple ruled, single level games. So much fun to shoot and i can get my brain around the objectives.
That's why (full circle) I'm going to love the Celts and the Fathom too.
I sold my Centaur as it was too similar to Fathom and i liked Fathom better.
You may never see another Sunset Riders.
What colour is your mates?
Quoted from oldskool1969:Silver if I remember correct
I'd love to see a photo or two. I've never seen a silver one. It's not the Storm footy team one is it? Silver and Purple?
Wasn't sure on the black one as far as colour went, but it's growing on me real fast.
It'd be such a treat for me if Damián and Bill got together and i got them both for xmas, but i can wait till the new year for my Celts if i really must.
