MISSION COMPLETE — THANK YOU!
almost 3 years ago – Fri, Jul 30, 2021 at 01:33:37 AM

Thank you, Backers, for making the Warcaster: The Thousand Worlds Kickstarter campaign a success and for helping to bring to life a host of new models and a very exciting Thousand Worlds sourcebook. On behalf of everyone at Privateer Press, we are truly grateful for your support.

Thanks to our Retailer Reservation pledges, we have just managed to cross $190k in total funding, unlocking not only the the fifth Wild Card story, but the Heavy Warjack cortexes as well! The new cortex part and corresponding stat card will be packed in with your Cadre contents when physical rewards ship. 

WHAT'S NEXT?

Over the next two weeks, Kickstarter will process pledge payments. Meanwhile, we will finalize the Backerkit pledge manager, and once Kickstarter deposits the funds into our account, we will send out an email invitation to complete your survey in the pledge manager. The pledge manager will run through September 10th, at which time all pledges will need to be locked and credit cards will be charged for any add-ons and shipping.

If you encounter any problems or need assistance with the pledge manager, please message us directly through Kickstarter so we can help.

In August, we'll be finalizing The Thousand Worlds sourcebook and sending it off to press with the hope of having it in our Warehouse by December for a January delivery. We'll keep you posted on progress and once we're finished with the book will send out a link to download the PDF so that you can peruse the content while waiting for the physical rewards to arrive.

Please make sure to watch for our announcements sent out through Kickstarter so that you don't miss any important information regarding your rewards. Please also make sure that you have set your spam filters to receive email from Backerkit.com and PrivateerPress.com as communications will come from both sources throughout the fulfillment process. We'll be sharing previews and news periodically and don't want you to miss a thing!

Once again, thank you for your incredible support and for going on this journey with us to The Thousand Worlds! We can't wait to deliver your rewards.

AND THEN THERE WERE THREE...

GREETINGS, WARCASTERS! 

Thanks to the many Retailer Reservation pledges, the Thousand Worlds campaign will safely surpass the $180k threshold and unlock our next stretch goal. As we're down to the last three hours, we thought we'd go ahead and post the poll featuring the final three Wild Card candidates vying for a spot in the fifth The Thousand Worlds Gone Wild short story. 

Will it be the notorious interplanetary arms dealer known only as The Quartermaster? The AWOL sniper robot, Axel for Hire? Or will Voitek Sudal, the feared bounty hunter, come from behind to take the spot in the story?

You decide! And don't forget to share!

BOOK COVER ART PRINT UNLOCKED!

THANK YOU, WARCASTERS!

Your amazing support has helped the funding for Warcaster: The Thousand Worlds surpass $170k, unlocking the art print of the new Thousand Worlds book cover by Vincent Lefeure.

With just a few hours left in this campaign, there's still time to reach yet more stretch goals. Our next goal at $180k will add another installment to The Thousand Worlds Gone Wild fiction series to be written by Aeryn Rudel.

Our last community poll to decide which character the latest Wild Card story would feature resulted in a win for the mysterious Master Tulcan, an ancient keeper with a curious past. 

And don't forget, once the campaign ends we'll tally our Retailer Reservation pledges for a final funding total and should be unlocking at least one more stretch goal as a result.

Thank you for your continued support!

LAST 48 HOURS!
almost 3 years ago – Wed, Jul 28, 2021 at 08:32:20 PM

GREETINGS WARCASTERS!

We have entered the last 48 hours of the Warcaster: The Thousand Worlds Kickstarter campaign, which you have helped make so successful.

As we near the end of the campaign, I want to remind everyone that when we do the final calculations to assess stretch goals, we'll be counting our Retailer Reservation pledges as $400 each. What that means is that as of right now, we'll be counting almost $13k more in pledges, so your rewards will definitely be including the book cover print, and as well, we'll be adding that next Wild Card fiction installment. And if we see a little bump at the end of this campaign, we may just make it to the Heavy Warjack cortex...

So please share the campaign! Every pledge counts. 

And thank you for your support!
