Hiya folks! As you probably know, the campaign is now over! (And so is the team's vacation behind the scenes)
So you're probably wondering, what's next? Especially because we're aiming to get these Decks in your hands ASAP -- like before Halloween of this year!
So let's make sure everyone's on the same page of what to expect. You'll have to do things on certain steps, so make sure you're ready!
NOW - Finalize The Zines! We last-minute unlocked TWO new Zines. SO, there's a poll out about which game systems get Zines. Go vote! You have a week to do this!
Next Week - Pledge Manager & Pre-Orders Right when that poll is finishing up, you're all going to get access to something called the "Pledge Manager". This is how you can edit your pledges, put in your shipping address, pay for shipping as needed, and generally just "finalize" your order.
Let me be super clear here: YOU CANNOT GET YOUR DECK UNTIL YOU DO THE PLEDGE MANAGER. Be ready! And yes, if you move between filling out the survey and the time we actually ship things out, that's OKAY! It's free to change your shipping info.
And at the same time, if you didn't get your pledge in, we'll open the pre-order store. It's only going to be open for a limited time, so this is absolutely your last time to get some of the nice "bundles" we've set-up. After that, it's standard retail.
Later August - Exciting Things to Fill The Long Haul As you've probably noticed, Fate has a tendency to surprise us in the best of ways.
So we've already "rigged Fate's Deck" with a number of special (free) extras to tell you about what's next -- trust me, it's exciting stuff.
More is yet to come...
October-ish- Fufillment Starts If you ordered the new "Double Shipping" (more on this later) or have a pledge with just the Deck, then you'll probably get your stuff around October.
If you ordered a bundle, you'll get your stuff around November (the Zines, etc take a bit extra time).
AND THAT'S A WRAP! Of course, just like Fate likes good surprises, they like the bad ones too. So, if anything goes awry, you'll hear about it first. But so far, things are proceeding good!
The time has come, friends. A mere 12 hours remain in our campaign.
It's been incredible to see this amazing support as we've blasted past every single goal. And now, this Deck comes to life. Thanks to folks like you. Thank you.
But maybe, that's not you. Maybe you've still yet to get your Deck. This is your sign. The final call. Because once the campaign's over, all the bundles disappear.
PLEDGE BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. Let me share the secret: if you're on the fence, then put down just $1.
Why? Because if you put a dollar, you can edit that pledge AFTER the campaign. It's buying you more time to decide. But it means you lock in that opportunity for all those bundles AND you get to influence the new Zines. That's pretty big.
Let's end strong... For more is always yet to come.
Hello everyone, Alas, as with all things, this campaign, too, shall come to pass. As we enter these final hours, MAKE SURE YOU’VE PUT IN YOUR PLEDGE!
It's been an incredible journey to make this deck come to fruition. And it's all thanks to you all. As the final twist of this campaign, I'm super excited to announce one last surprise to all of you for your incredible support.
As some of you know, this campaign is also the first time we've publicly debuted Call to Power -- a high dark fantasy inspired by the likes of Jujutsu Kaisen and Dark Souls that makes the Deck of Fates a core mechanic. And as Backers of this campaign, you're the first to get your hands on it!
Thanks to all the incredible support, we're starting another small project: a 100-day journal of a character exploring the legendary Starfields in the world of Call to Power -- including the Machinations of Fate, which will be drawn live every week. As Backers, you get free access to all the artwork and storyline as it unfolds.
It'll start soon after the campaign ends. I hope you enjoy.
Back in the campaign, at this pace, I'm almost certain we're going to hit that next Stretch Goal in just about 15 more Backers. But as always, only you decide how the Scales of Fate will tip. Let's make it happen.
Hello everyone! Varun here. Super quick update here.
Starting with... My goodness, y'all IMMEDIATELY took up all those custom wood boxes. So, I ran around yesterday and pulled some strings. We managed to get 15 more boxes!
So if you want one, make sure you get one before they're out -- AGAIN!
But otherwise, if you're around GenCon, you can see the Deck in action by signing up for a game of Call to Power! Or see the deck in person at our Booth #1217!
If you're pledged, come by and get some freebies!
Just four days left in the campaign! More is yet to come...
Hey everyone! Varun here. We're almost at the end of our campaign here and I just wanted to say again: thank you so much for helping to make this project a reality. It's been incredible to receive such great support from folks like you.
As we wrap things up, I just wanted to make sure everyone knew about some of our brand-new add-ons and pledge tiers!
Firstly, we've added a new Digital-only add-on for collaborator zines. Of course, anyone who gets a physical zine, also gets it digitally, but now there's an option for folks who only want it digitally.
We've added a new pledge tier!
This new bundle is specifically for those superfans: The Destined Bundle. Specifically, this bundle is the culmination of a lot of big and small fortunes, allowing us to create a small number of extremely premium stained wood deck boxes to match the overall Deck.
But more than just the Wooden Deck box, we've also added a promise to this tier: that any future collaborator zine we create FOR THE NEXT YEAR, will automatically be sent to you as well.
We're still working out exactly how many of these ultra-premium handmade boxes we're making, but for now, THERE'S 10 DESTINED BUNDLES AVAILABLE. After those run out, not sure if we can add more, but we'll try... If you're interested, leave a comment or grab a bundle! It helps us push to make it happen!
