Production Progress and Recap
over 2 years ago – Thu, Sep 30, 2021 at 12:43:35 AM

 Hey backers! It’s that time again--not only do we have a fresh update for you, but we’re also recapping the last few updates to keep you up to date with production progress! Check out where we’re at!

Currently Fulfilling:

  • Spell Decks: 0-9, Spellcraft, Humblewood Vol. 2
     
  • Exclusives: Magician Pin and Animated Spell Pack
     
  • Tarot Pins
     
  • Ultrapro Sleeves
     

If you chose pallet shipping, your rewards will ship later in the fulfillment process. If you preordered with us, your items will ship after we’ve fulfilled backer rewards. Not sure if you’re a Kickstarter backer or placed a preorder? Our FAQ explains the difference!

If your rewards include any of the items not listed above, your package will ship once the remaining items have arrived at our warehouse.

Production Progress:

Illusions, Townsfolk and Conditions: They’re on a boat! At long last, these decks are on the water and making their way to us. As they get closer to our warehouse, we’ll have a better idea of when we can expect them--we’ll be sure to continue to keep you updated!

Tarot deck storage boxes, decks and reading mats: These items are still in production and have not shipped from our manufacturers just yet.

Tarot book: A nearly final copy has been released to backers! You can download it through BackerKit under Digital Downloads. The physical version is currently in pre-press getting prepared for production!

Spellshaping: Book design is still in progress!

Spell slots: In production. 

Roll20: VTT assets have been released to backers! The distribution issue impacting pledge tiers has been resolved. They aren’t available directly on Roll20 just yet, but we’ll keep you updated on when to expect them!

Project We Love: Orcs Vs.Satyrs
 

Eldritch Foundry takes your tabletop characters seriously. Their team produces an ever expanding library of genre-defining options for innovative custom miniatures. Their second Kickstarter aims to bring you best-in-class pre-made miniatures to support storytelling in the eternal twilight of the Fey realms with the creation of their take on two Fey-realm factions:
 

  •  Magicpunk Orcish Warrior-engineers, whose industrial drive required sapping arcane energy from Fey-realm's leylines for fuel.
     
  •  Mystic Satyrs - servants of the Archfey - sworn to protect natural magic and the wild places of the earth.

Production and Fulfillment Progress
over 2 years ago – Wed, Sep 15, 2021 at 10:31:27 PM

Hey backers!

Not a whole lot of updates to share with you this week as most of the rewards are going through the same production phase they were two weeks ago. Here are the changes we’ve seen since then! You can review the previous update here.

Fulfillment in Progress

As you may have seen, some backers are receiving their rewards! Right now, our fulfillment team is working through orders that only include:


  • Spell Decks: 0-9, Spellcraft, Humblwood Vol. 2
  • Exclusives: Magician Pin and Animated Spell Pack
  • Tarot Pins
  • Ultrapro Sleeves
     

If you chose pallet shipping, your rewards will ship later in the fulfillment process. If you preordered with us, your items will ship after we’ve fulfilled backer rewards. Not sure if you’re a Kickstarter backer or placed a preorder? Our FAQ explains the difference!

If your rewards include any of the items not listed above, your package will ship once the remaining items have arrived at our warehouse. 

Roll20 Assets?

We’re aware of an issue regarding the distribution of the Roll20 asset files through BackerKit and that not all backers have received access to them! We’re working on resolving the issue now. Thank you for your patience!

Tarot Packaging Preview

Here's an early look at the proposed designs for the cover of the tarot box set and the deck!


Proposed cover for the Deluxe tarot box set
Proposed cover for the tarot deck!

We can't wait to see the designs, and more importantly the decks, in person!

over 2 years ago – Wed, Sep 01, 2021 at 02:32:51 AM

Hey backers!

Here’s this week’s update on the progress! For anything not included in this update, please review our last post for the most recent information.

Tarot Book PDF Release

It's here! Go check your backerkit for the download!

We’ve released The Fablemaker’s Tarot Guidebook PDF through BackerKit! The file is considered v0.9 so you may see some changes between this release and the final book. If you haven’t downloaded it already, check it out through your BackerKit profile!

Go and enjoy this 280 page book and let us know what you think!

Rewards Progress

  •  Pins - At long last, the pins have arrived! We’re now able to begin processing rewards that include the Magician Pin and any of the items currently available to ship (All spell deck levels, Spellcraft decks, and Humblewood Vol. 2 decks).

    Please note that if you have any of the listed items but selected pallet shipping or are expecting additional items that have not yet completed production, your rewards are unable to ship until all items have arrived at the warehouse.
The pins in all their glory!
  •  Illusions, Townsfolk and Conditions - These decks are on their way! They’ll be shipping by freight and we’ll keep you updated on when we expect to receive them as they make their way to the warehouse.
     
  •  Tarot deck boxes, decks and reading mats - They’re in production! We’ll let you know once they’ve shipped from the manufacturers so we can better anticipate when we’ll be able to ship them out to you!
     
  •  Check out our previous update for the most recent information for anything not included here!
     

Please note: If you did not back the campaign on Kickstarter but preordered through BackerKit or hitpointpress.com, your items will ship at a later date. Not sure if you’re a Kickstarter backer or placed a preorder? Our FAQ explains the difference!

Production Progress!
over 2 years ago – Thu, Aug 19, 2021 at 05:21:34 AM

Hey backers!

Here’s your next update! 🙌

Rewards Progress

  •  Tarot deck boxes and reading mats - pre-production is complete! They’re in the hands of the manufacturers now and going into production soon!
  •  Tarot book - The final writing is done and the file is being reviewed by the design team this week. At this time we anticipate releasing the PDF next week!.
  •  Spellshaping - The main design is complete! Design team is hard at work filling it out with the amazing art from the cards. It’s too early to offer an ETA, but it’s well underway!
  •  Roll20 - Assets are complete and are being uploaded to BackerKit (it's a real hefty file but you should see it distributed within the next 24-48 hours)! The next step is getting them approved, processed and uploaded to Roll20 itself, but in the meantime you can soon download the assets for personal use on any VTT platform!
  •  Pins - the pin shipment is in Canada and waiting to start the final let of their journey to our warehouse!
  •  Conditions, Townsfolk, Illusions deck shipment - Set to be picked up by FedEx Freight from the manufacturers this week!
  •  Humblewood - We keep forgetting to include poor Humblewood in these updates (forgive me, Riffin! 🦉). Humblewood decks are in the warehouse and folks who had only Levels 6-9, Humblewood and the Youtubers card pack will have shipped (Note: this does not apply to backers who chose pallet shipping).
  •  Deck Restock (0-5 and Cantrips) + Spellcraft shipment - Good news, folks! The restock pallets have just arrived at our warehouse this morning! The fulfillment team has 17 pallets to unload and process before we can start shipping, but we're one step closer to getting some more rewards shipped out! 🎉🥳

Production Progress + Recap!
over 2 years ago – Thu, Aug 05, 2021 at 12:24:53 PM

Hey backers!

We hope you’ve had a good couple of weeks and are enjoying your summer! We apologize for missing the mid-July update. The comms team is relatively small and family emergencies, time off and simple mistakes (like putting the date wrong in our calendar 😬) coming together in a perfect storm can make a much bigger impact on the schedule than we or any of our backers would like. Biweekly updates are set to continue as expected.

Someone recently mentioned a recap of rewards that haven’t seen movement in a little bit would be helpful so backers don’t have to dig through previous updates - we agree! Every 4th production update will now feature a handy recap to reminder folks where things are at.

Production Recap:

  •  0-5+ decks (restock) - Shipment expected at the warehouse soon! So soon we're poking our fulfillment team everyday for updates 👀
  •  6-9 decks - In warehouse
  •  Townsfolk, Conditions, Illusions - Expected to ship from manufacturers mid-August
  •  Pins - In transit. They're currently making their way to us by ship and we know some of you are as eager as we are to see them arrive! 🚢
  •  Tarot deck (including reading mats) - On Wednesday, the team is doing the final review for production. We hope to have good news to share on this front soon!
  •  Tarot book/booklet - Design is wrapping up and the PDF should be released shortly!
  •  Binders - In production
  •  Roll20 - Anticipated release this month!
  •  Deck storage boxes - Being prepped for production
  •  Art book - In early design
  •  Spell slot system -  In production

Reminders

  • Pallets can't ship until everything is in the warehouse. If you chose pallet shipping, expect to see those ship out towards the end of fulfillment. 
  • All of your rewards will ship together! 
  • We will resume Kickstarter shipping as expected items arrive at our warehouse.
