Greetings Overlords,


How we all doing? Well? Great! I have your news!


I would guesstimate that we are about 50% through the manufacturing process. I've been speaking to our overseas shipping coordinator about setting up all that goodness as well. Transit across the sea will take 41 days, then it will be transported to our fulfillment partners who will deliver the game to you fine people.  As always, a more concrete timeline will be provided when I have it.


On a side note, speaking from recent personal experience, I recommend against falling down the stairs. Not a fun time.


Until next time, I remain your faithful lackey,

David

February Update
about 3 years ago – Sun, Feb 21, 2021 at 02:30:16 PM

Greetings Overlords,


It’s nearing the end of February and it’s time for an update. Our delays to this point have been due in large part to needing to make updates and corrections to some of the graphic design. After quite a bit of back and forth, which took quite a while, we’re submitting the assets to our manufacturer, again. With manufacturers returning from their break from Chinese New Year, we expect this to ramp up relatively quickly.


Since most of the heavy lifting for creating molds and tools has been completed from previous iterations, we expect this to reach completion and be ready to ship sooner rather than later, but exact dates are not nailed down yet. The moment they are, I will share them. I am still anticipating that your games will reach you within the first half of this year.


To make up for the delays, I have a few things planned. One of which is that all backers will be receiving our convention promo cards. I will be mailing them out around the same time you receive your games.


Secondly, we will be replacing the “2nd Edition Upgrade Kit” with a full copy of the 2nd Edition of the Overlords of Infamy base game.


There will be more, but I will get back to you on that will be.


In the meantime, I hope everyone stays safe and healthy with the myriad problems plaguing us all at once. If you have any questions, please reach out! However, I apologize if I am a bit slower to respond these coming weeks as I am in the middle of moving.

Thanks for your patience. Until next time, I remain your faithful Lackey,

David

An updated delivery estimate!
over 3 years ago – Wed, Dec 02, 2020 at 05:13:31 AM

Greetings Overlords, 

Been a couple of months since I last posted an update, so I wanted to check in today with the news that we are expecting a delivery in the first quarter of 2021! We know you have been waiting, very patiently in fact. I am grateful for that, and for allowing us to provide a high-quality product and experience for you.


As an apology for the delays, I am working on something to offer to you all. It will likely be in the form of a discount or a bonus, but I will let you know when I get that sorted out in entirety. 


On the bright side, having to make corrections allow us to include some more recent and timely references! 


I look forward to updating you soon with a more precise timeline and additional details, but we're in the home stretch. Have a wonderful holiday season, my friends!



Until next time, I remain your faithful Lackey,

David

Stay safe out there...
over 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 16, 2020 at 06:12:52 AM

Greetings Overlords! 


It's September and the West Coast is on fire, the pandemic rages on and the lower East Coast is about be hit by a hurricane. It's not a fun time and I hope everyone is remaining as safe as possible. 

This update is mainly to reach out to say hi! How have you been doing? What have you done/learned/explored during the crazy past six months? Tell us in the comments!

No major news on the game front at the moment. We're doing the back and forth with corrections and the next major milestone will be getting the corrected prototype. 

Looking forward to speaking to you again soon.


As always, I remain your faithful Lackey,

David

Quick update
almost 4 years ago – Tue, Aug 11, 2020 at 05:13:59 AM

Greetings Overlords!


A quick update on this 9th day of August! Corrections are progressing along at a solid clip and we're making sure that everything looks pristine before beginning final production. We expect that we'll get those corrections to the manufacturer in short order. Once we do, we should get an accurate timeline and will provide that to you at that time.

We hope everyone is doing as well as you can be during these trying times!


As always, I remain your faithful Lackey,

David
