May 29th Production Update
almost 4 years ago – Fri, May 29, 2020 at 06:28:40 PM

Hello everyone and happy Friday!

Manufacturing News

I hope everyone that picked up the Dossier Deck PDFs is enjoying them and for those patiently awaiting the printed decks, there is news. I have a set of Mass Production Copies (MPCs) from the manufacturer and have approved them. All the printing was done as of last update and now they are assembling everything. That process is scheduled to be finished on June 8th and from there the decks will ship to us for fulfillment. Barring any hangups in customs, we hope to have them shipping out to backers by late July. We will keep you posted!

We have learned a lot throughout this process that will help things run more smoothly the next time we do this sort of project. And we definitely intend to keep Dossier Decks alive.

DIAMOND d4

We have less than a week left on our DIAMOND d4 campaign. Pledge levels start at $12 and every reward level will receive a PDF of d44 treasure tables along with their dice. Check it out now and help us fund this little passion project.

I'll be back in about two weeks to let everyone know how things are progressing.

Have a great weekend!

May 18th, 2020 Production Update - Printing News
almost 4 years ago – Wed, May 20, 2020 at 09:32:48 AM

Hey-hey! Hope everyone's week is off to a great start.

Dossier Decks have been printed! A mass production copy (MPC) of each deck is being sent to me for approval and should arrive this week. Once I have the copies I will be reviewing them with our project manager at Panda and we should be good-to-go for assembly to begin. While the MPCs are shipping to me the ink on the rest of the decks is drying for 3 to 5 days in a climatization chamber to minimize warping. 

I'll update again later this week with photos of the final decks! I'm very excited to be one step closer to getting these into people's hands.

DIAMOND d4

In the meantime, we are more than 50% funded on the DIAMOND d4 campaign. Please check it out and help us bring these eight-sided d4s to tabletops everywhere.

That's all for now but we will be back very soon with more news.

Cheers!

PDFs and New Dice from SKG

Greetings all,

This morning we have done two things.

First, the Dossier Deck PDFs have been distributed via BackerKit. Hopefully by this time you already have your link. We have even created a Dossier Deck Sampler that we've released for all backers that gives you 12 of each card type to play around with.

Second, while we wait for the factory to complete the decks, we have launched a new campaign for the DIAMOND d4.

The concept is simple, we are taking the octahedron shape of a common  eight-sided-die and repurposing it as a d4, with the numbers one through four repeated. This is a quick campaign that we would love to see get funded. Please check it out.

Dossier Decks are scheduled to complete production right around the end of May. I will continue to keep you posted on that front.

Thank you everyone. Stay safe and have a great week.

- Ed

May 6th, 2020 Production Update - PDFs Next Week
almost 4 years ago – Wed, May 06, 2020 at 05:48:14 PM

Greetings all,

Not much news on the production front. So far as I know, the cards are being printed now and production should wrap in late May or early June. I'll let you know as soon as I have more info.

PDF NEWS

I'm here to let everyone know that PDFs for backers will be delivered next week.

Everyone backing for PDFs will receive three files for each deck in their pledge. The first file will be the cards with the backs on the same page, designed to be folded over to complete the card. The second and third files will be fronts and backs (with proper collation) so you can print the cards with the backs or ignore the backs entirely and just sleeve the fronts.

I know many of you have been waiting for these and I appreciate your patience. Not much longer.

For those that didn't back for PDFs, we will also be releasing a free sampler PDF so you can start playing around making NPCs with a limited number of cards from each deck while you await your printed decks.

That's all for now. More news as I have it.

Cheers - Ed 

April 23rd, 2020 Production Update - No News is Good News

Hey all,

Just a quick update to let you know that currently there isn't really any news.

The cards should be finished printing by late May or early June. Theoretically that gets them here in the US around mid July. We are working on the shipping plan with the manufacturer now. I have requested production photos from the factory but who knows if they will actually send any along. If I get them I will definitely share.

I will begin work on putting the PDFs together next week and keep you posted on that.

Until next time, stay safe and take care of one another.
