Dice Production Update From Factory
We just received an update from the factory on their progress on the production of the additional dice sets needed to complete filling the Army of Darkness Preorders. Unfortunately - they were not able to complete the production run as quickly as they were hoping. They have informed us that the new projected completion date is July 30th. 

Its not the news anyone wanted to get - but we wanted to share that update with everyone as soon as we found out. Now the good news is that we will not be shipping the dice by boat. They are going to be air freighted in to us which means it will be shortly after the completion that we should receive the inventory. We won't have to wait for 6-8 weeks for boat freight to arrive - it would likely be three weeks or less to reach us.

In the meantime - we're hoping that more of the 151 backers who are still pending supplying shipping info can reply and get in the queue to have orders filled in that time. If you have not done so - please visit this site directly to get your data filled out:

If you have received your game and expansions - please let us know if you have any problems or concerns. If anything was damaged or missing you can reach us at [email protected] for assistance resolving any issue.

Army of Darkness Dice Inventory Update
Thank you all for the incredible support surrounding the Army of Darkness Board Game. The excitement around this campaign has honestly exceeded our expectations, especially when it comes to the dice sets.

Due to overwhelming demand during the pledge manager portion of the program, we’ve officially gone back to press on additional dice inventory. While we planned inventory levels based on projected interest, but the response from fans significantly outpaced what we anticipated from the main offering, and we want to make sure everyone receives the items included in their orders.

At this time, we are anticipating the new dice inventory arriving within the next 30 days, though we’ll continue to provide updates as production and shipping progress.

Because of this unexpected surge in demand, some orders containing expanded dice sets may experience shipping delays while we wait for the new inventory to arrive. We understand delays can be frustrating, and we sincerely appreciate everyone’s patience as we work to fulfill orders as quickly and accurately as possible.
The passion and enthusiasm for Army of Darkness has been tremendous, and we’re grateful for the continued support.

Army of Darkness Games Games Arrived At NY Port!
We have confirmation from the port authority that the Army of Darkness games have arrived at the New York port! They are scheduling the unloading from the freight containers and prepping to ship them to our distribution partner at this time.  We believe they will clear customs and arrive to us by the end of next week (4/24).  

We are working with our distributor to make sure they are ready to pick and pack the games to fill orders as soon as possible upon their local receipt.  If you have had a change to your address - this is a very good time to get that information in to us so we can make sure your games ship to the right location.

Also, we still have 410 backers who have not yet filled out the shipping survey. If you are one of them - please go here and complete your form so we can be sure to send your games with the first wave of shipping.

Army of Darkness Games En Route to NY Port & Free Digital Graphic Novel
The Army of Darkness games are about a week away from arriving at the New York port at this time.  Their ocean voyage is estimating arrival at port on or around April 6th.  Once the games arrive at the port - they will be received, unloaded, packed onto a railroad car and sent on their way to our distribution partner.  Once this happens and the games arrive at our fulfillment partner, we will be ready to begin shipping to backers.

We had a few questions about the Army of Darkness game being available in comic shops early.  Those dates have been corrected.  The games will not ship to comic shops until several months after they fill through Backerkit.  All of our backers will have the games first and we are also supplying a special bonus gift - a digital download of an Army of Darkness graphic novel.  We will be circulating the download code for this free gift once we start shipping the games - watch for updates with instructions coming your way in the near future.

 If you have any questions - please email us at [email protected] for help.

Army of Darkness Games Released From Customs
We have been notified that the Army of Darkness games have been released from customs at this time. Our factory has received the paperwork and is helping to move them to the freight forwarder. Upon arrival at the shipper, the games to be placed on the next available container to ship to the port in the United States.  

We've requested that the shipper confirm the start of the timeline from when the games are loaded into the container.  There is a container shortage in China at the moment but we believe it will not be more than a few weeks to go from the queue to being loaded for shipping, and then on the water to come to us.   

As soon as we have the confirmation on the shipping transit timeline we will get another update posted and begin the countdown for the games to arrive at port.  From port they will be unloaded from the ship and transported to our fulfillment center by rail.

Here we are, two weeks after your definite deadline for dice sets to be completed, so backers can get their games - but you haven't updated? Why not, Dynamite? At what point will you accept that your inability to count pledges is what led to months of delay for people who trusted you? At what point will you do the Right Thing and split ship, sending the games and expansions out now, and sending the dice sets on when (if?) you receive them?

So, given the lack of communication from Dynamite, I emailed them to ask how much longer we were expected to wait. Their response: "Dice are being shipped to us. As soon as we have them in hand we will be shipping out." So dice apparently on the way. I emailed them again, to ask: When were they shipped to you? When do you expect to receive them? How long will it then take to ship all rewards to backers? Why have you not updated backers for over a month? Their response: " Dice are made and we're waiting on the shipping details. As soon as we have that we will have an update sent out." So dice have NOT been shipped to Dynamite yet, despite their previous claim they would be on the way by 30th July. No idea how many more days it will take for the dice to leave the factory. No answer to the question of how long it will take them to process the many waiting orders when they finally get them. And no answer to why they are choosing to remain so silent and dismissive of the people who trusted them with their money. Sigh.

I really wanted this game and for Dynamite Entertainment to follow through on it's promises, but after waiting two weeks past the last deadline of July 30th I officially give up! I have requested a full refund and looking at my usual online retailer, they have 10+ copies of the game and expansion, so I'll be ordering the game from them. I guess this means Dynamite Entertainment still get money out of me in a circuitous route, well played! I just hope the refund comes through.

Well i didn't want to do this, but since they didnt even fully refund me my money, i will state here that i will never buy ANYTHING from this company again. I got an $82 refund on a $95 purchase, no refund for shipping, or the dice i paid for. I was gonna buy a copy from a local game shop, but not now. Im done with all this lol

My order is showing as shipped but when I go to track it then it shows as not found what is going on? I assume because I ordered extra dice I am one of the people effected by the delay but then why say that my order has shipped and send me a non working tracking number.
