This post is for AUS/NZ backers, but of course everyone is welcome to read if you'd like to join the ride on this crazy fulfillment roller coaster.
First, thanks for your patience. We were consumed by the Gen Con vortex for much of July and August. Gen Con was fantastic and we're now mostly recovered. It's an enormous undertaking and also a ton of fun. Here's a photo of the whole "Goodman Gang" gathered around our banner at the show.

Now, down to business! For AUS/NZ backers, here's the latest.
Our local fulfillment partner has shipped out everything they could. As you know, most of you received partial shipments based on the inventory we were able to recover from the lost shipment.
The remainder of your pledge will be shipped directly from our warehouse in the USA.
We are depending on AUS/NZ backers to email us at [email protected] with some details. We have records from the fulfillment partner of what was shipped and unshipped, but given the unprecedented volatility of this fulfillment process, we'd like to validate that. So, please email us and tell us what you think you're missing. We'll make sure that matches the records we've received.
The next step is address verification. It's been a loooooong time since you all filled out surveys. Look for emails in the next week or so where a Goodman Games staffer will confirm the mailing address we have in our records. I'm sure at least one backer has moved and we want to ensure these final parcels go to the right place.
And finally... as the start of our "thank-you" for all this, your "makeup parcels" will contain a special bonus item!
The Lost Library of the Purple Planet
When books are lost in a freight depot somewhere in the wilds of Australia, it's almost like inspiration from the muse. Harley Stroh and Doug Kovacs conferred over Gen Con and this is what they came up with...
All makeup parcels shipped for Australia backers will include this two-page cardstock bonus encounter, written by Harley and illustrated by Doug. Sorry for all this chaos and delay. We have more planned but first let's get you the product you paid for along with a bonus item you don't have to pay for!
Look for address verification emails in the next week or so and then some shipments to follow.
