Greetings Dust Road denizens,

Surveys to supply your address, pay for shipping, and finish your orders are LIVE NOW! You should have gotten an email from BackerKit inviting you to the pledge manager. If not, you can recover and finish your survey at this address:

https://far-west-redux.backerkit.com/

The books are in the warehouse and ready to ship, so we have a tight timeline to get you your rewards. We'll leave the survey open until Tuesday April 14th. Cards will be charged periodically until then as you finish your surveys and we'll do a final charge cards push on April 15th. We'll then export the data to our warehouse and they will begin sending out tracking numbers and orders as soon as the following week. 

Digital rewards (the Far West PDF, the Tales of the Far West fiction anthology digital edition, the Once Upon A Time In The Far West mp3 album, and the BackerKit-exclusive Designer's Diary) will be sent out immediately after we close the survey, and sent to the email address associated with your survey.

If you have any issues with the BackerKit interface you can direct help questions there first, any other issues including Retail inquiries, can be sent to [email protected]

Thank you for taking this journey with us! 

Ni hao, folks!

We're coming up on just a week remaining in the BackerKit campaign, and I figured that I'd touch base with you again, to let you know how thrilled we are at the response.  Thank you so much for your support!

If you'd like to have a gander at a couple of previews of what you'll see in FAR WEST, we've got two of them up as free PDFs on DriveThruRPG:

First, a brief look at kung fu in the Far West:

and second, a look at The Rangers, one of the clans of the Far West:

The clans are the secret societies that heroes can be a part of, each with their own history, goals, philosophies, and, of course, their own secret kung fu style that is only taught to members.  There are eight clans presented in the core rulebook (The Foxglove Society, The Iron Dragons, The Jade Family, The Mariachi, The Preachers, The Rangers, The Twin Eagle Security Agency, and The Wandering Stars), and there are rules presented for creating your own new clans as well -- and future supplements and adventures will feature the occasional new clan, as the Far West is full of such secrets.

I've finished writing the BackerKit campaign exclusive Designer's Diary, and it's currently in layout, ready to be delivered when the campaign ends.  I hope that you find the story of the creation process interesting and informative.

In the meantime, thanks again, and here's to a strong finish!

First of all, a huge thank you to all of you for your support.  We have been really pleased at the level of success we’ve seen, and that’s entirely due to you!  As a gesture of thanks, we’d like to invite you to the FAR WEST Discord Server, where you can talk with fellow Wanderers of the Dust Road about the game, share Far West art, link to inspirational media, ask questions, look for playing groups, and more.

The link:   https://discord.gg/w4yzFhGQj7

We’re coming up on just two more weeks remaining in our BackerKit campaign, so if you’ve got any folks in your gaming group who haven’t checked us out yet, feel free to shoot them a link to our campaign page!

Your road to the Far West doesn't stop here -- we're supporting the game with adventure and supplemental releases in PDF via DriveThruRPG.  Our first adventure, A Sworn Brother, is already available!  

Thanks again, and Happy Year of the Fire Horse!
