Late Pledge and Pledge Manager Information
almost 3 years ago – Fri, Jun 18, 2021 at 09:06:23 PM

Hi Guys,

I wanted to take a few minutes to update you on Pledge Manager happenings.

As many of you know, the two largest pledge manager organizations, Crowd Ox and Backerkit merged earlier this year. It should mean great things for gamers, stemming from more versatile pledge managers.  We've worked with both companies, and they are smart hard-working folks.

It does, however, mean growing pains in the short term. We opened our late pledge offering on Backerkit. Unfortunately, we find it a little more cumbersome than Crowd Ox, which we have used in the past. Accordingly, this morning we switched the late pledges to the Crowd Ox software we have used in the past.

What does that mean for those of you who pledged during the campaign? Absolutely nothing. You'll get an invitation when we open the pledge manager and you'll be able to zip in, pay postage, buy additional items, etc.

What does it mean for those who late pledged? Almost absolutely nothing.  You'll still get an invitation when we open the pledge manager and you'll be able to zip in, pay postage, buy additional items, etc. However your old late pledge link will now go dead. Worry not, we have all the data on all 68 (so far) late pledges. You'll be charged for your pledge before we open the Pledge Manager.

When will we be opening the Pledge Manager? Looks like the first week in July.

Thanks for your patience. Please email questions to [email protected].

Best,

Mark

More Stretch Goals
about 3 years ago – Wed, Apr 28, 2021 at 04:42:04 AM

Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have some new stretch goals for you.

#9 Upgraded Terrain Chart

Unlocks at $70,000. A lager, graphically enhanced Terrain Effects Chart. Pretty dang cool.


#10 Meade Attacks 

Unlocks at $80,000. Everyone knows that Lee hung around on July 4th, hoping that Meade would attack. It never happened, but in this variant it will. Meade attacks is a complete Day #4 scenario, stuffed full of "what ifs" like rain, force location, and more.


Hope we reach them.
