Hello everyone! It’s Zarek here, the Lead Designer, and we have a huge update today! All of our Backers should be receiving their digital rewards as you read this. We decided to use DriveThruRPG for fulfillment of all digital rewards, since there were a lot of issues finding digital downloads here on Backerkit with the release of our Manuscript. If anyone experiences any issues, please reach out to us!

The documents you should expect to receive are:

Our plan is to wait a week or two before placing the order for the physical books, so that we can make sure to get more eyes on the PDF and catch any possible errors before print. So please join our discord or send us an email with anything that you think looks like an error or mistake! With this plan, we still expect to begin fulfillment by mid-October.

We have decided to increase our pricing on our Core Rulebooks (including the SIC), because we made the decision to change our set of Core Rulebooks from 3 Books: the Super’s Information Codex (SIC), Comic Editor’s Compendium (CEC), and Threat Index (TI) to only 2 Books: the SIC, and CEC. As of today, the price for any future purchases of the physical SIC, and our future crowdfunding campaign for the CEC, have been increased to $59.95 from $49.95. This means that the total cost for the full set of Core Rulebooks for Indominant will now be $119.90 (without discounts and bundle pricing), instead of the previously planned $149.85. Our Core Rulebook PDFs will be unchanged at the price of $25.

As a quick confirmation, nobody that has pledged to this crowdfunding campaign or pre-ordered the SIC PDF will be charged any additional fees or money. This only affects purchases on or after today on our website or for pledges on future crowdfunding campaigns.

This also means that we are changing our plans for what content is within the CEC. Previously we had planned to only have guides for running the game, setting up Superhero stories and campaigns, and Threat Creation guidelines. Now we have decided to also include a list of around 100-130 Threats in the CEC, making it a complete package for Comic Editors to run the game, without needing 2 books. The Threat Index is still planned to be developed at a later date, but we plan to release it as an expansion-style book that is unnecessary to purchase in order to play the game.

Website Updates

We have also closed the Backerkit pre-order store and added a physical pre-order of the SIC book to our website’s store, as well as made the SIC PDF able to be directly purchased. The physical pre-orders will not ship until all Backers’ orders have been fulfilled.
