The Deck of Fates

Hi folks!
Thank you so much for the patience while we sort out some of the details behind the scenes.
This update is super short. Just came here to show you the GM Screen as a mock-up!





Just like the Deck, we've spared no expense here to ensure you get an amazing and truly unique screen. That means:

We hope you like the artwork as much as we do! 
That's all for now. Make sure you fill out those surveys by the end of the month! We're almost ready to start the first shipments! (more on this soon)

Still needing to get your copy of the Deck? Check out our pre-order store!

Hello all,
Just a quick little update here.

The final design for the GM Screen is nearly complete, we have some artwork we're just cleaning up to ensure it gets foiled nicely, but should have some pictures to share very soon. If you're waiting on these pictures to decide if you want a GM Screen, that's totally fine! Please wait until you are ready before finalizing your survey. Don't worry, we'll remind you.

Otherwise, the Decks are finalized and well into production. We expect them all to be ready for fulfillment next month. Would have been sooner, but the incredible support from all of y'all meant we needed WAY more decks. 

Meanwhile, the other goodies are also well underway aiming for a similar timeline. In other words, we should be able to begin shipping things out either late next month / early Nov -- as planned.

The only small risk is that some of the Zines are taking a bit longer to be ready. We're still gunning hard to get them done in a similar time window, there's just a lot of details to make sure we get right. From art to layout, we're not okay with sending you anything less than the best. We'll keep y'all posted. Luckily, these print fast, so once they're finalized, we should be ready to send them soon!

That's all for now, feel free to ask any questions you have while you're waiting! We're here to help!
Best,
-Varun, First Mason of The Deck of Fates 

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.

More is yet to come...
