Project Update: Pledge Manager and Early Adopters April 14!
Greetings backers! Thank you once again for supporting us and believing in us! This update is to just say hi, let you know we are getting close to our initial releases.
After a brief sabbatical to recover from several months of intense production, we are back in full swing and gearing up for our initial release on myminifactory.com.
At present, we are hoping to have the Early Adopter version of many of the ships ready to go on April 14th when we go live with the pledge manager.
What is the Early Adopter version? The entire ship, sans full instructions. Building the ships will be possible, however not completely painlessly. We will have some renders and full build plates to make it easier, but step-by-step instructions are several months down the track.
Currently, Valkyria is fully ready for launch. Albin is finishing up Fenrir and the Sleipnir Refit, and next week we hope to have another ship as well. We will probably do the Haena first, as it is a quick job. I think the Nidhogg will be done before Ratatosk, which is the only ship I think currently risks not being ready for the Early Adopter version.
Once the ships are all ready, we will prioritise add-ons and then achievements/stretch goals.
If you did not have a chance to back during the campaign, or want to be kept apprised of when we go live, you can register to be notified of the campaign here.

Practical Details
We will be integrating directly with MyMiniFactory for STL file delivery. We will notify you closer to the 14th about the exact details, but the gist is that we will send out redemption emails, and you will then just follow the links and find the STL files available to download on the date.
The Pledge Manager will have funding and pledge amounts shown in USD. Options for Stripe/PayPal are available if you want to buy add-ons or upgrade your pledge level. Physical models are not available to order on the pledge manager, but if you want them, please feel free to get in touch and we will see what we can do.
If you ordered a physical model of the Valkyria, you will be contacted individually when your production slot is getting closer. Of course, you can reach out at any point, but as mentioned during the campaign, the physical models will be produced in late Q3 or early Q4 of this year.
